What they did right: Mary Janes Film, a documentary following Puffragettes™ as they navigate the “budding” marijuana industry in the United States, captured the human side of the film by using interviewees in its fundraising efforts. This social strategy not only humanized the film but also helped in its fundraising—these respondents were likely incredibly supportive of the documentary and are more likely to share a post about themselves.

What can other cannabis companies learn? Highlight community on your channels. Show the lifestyle and community of your customers.

In a well constructed social media campaign, Mary Janes Film scored big.
