Revamped MassRoots for Business Portal

The revamped MassRoots for Business portal consolidates many online marketing functions for cannabis-related business in one central platform. Businesses can schedule posts on MassRoots, Facebook and Twitter; purchase advertising on both MassRoots owned-properties as well as third party digital properties; and view actionable, real-time data from MassRoots and third party sources in easy-to-read formats. We believe this will serve as a solid foundation for future business-related features as we prepare to integrate dispensary point-of-sale data. We expect the revamped MassRoots for Business to launch in early June 2016.

Revamped Dispensary Finder and Features

MassRoots DispensaryOne of the main reasons people use MassRoots is to find quality dispensaries and products in their area. With our revamped dispensary finder and profiles, our goal is to provide the easiest and quickest way for consumers to do so, while integrating social recommendations to aid consumers in finding the best products. We expect our revamped dispensary finder and profiles to launch in June 2016.

Revamped Discover Page

massroots discoverBased on an analysis on Google Trends, there are currently tens of millions of Google searches every month for cannabis-related terms and questions – consumers, voters, activists and government officials looking for high-quality, reliable information on cannabis. Since launching MassRoots’ web platform in December 2015, we have been able to generate over 2 million page views from hundreds of thousands of unique visitors by indexing the content from our network on Google; however, this is only a fraction of the total searches that occurred during the same timeframe. In order to expand our market share of search results and web traffic, we intend to expand the functionality and content of MassRoots’ discover page to better connect consumers with the information they are looking for. We expect these features to launch in June 2016.
