THE STORY

From Seed to Social Sensation

Originally founded as a cannabis advocacy group, "Jailed for Weed" sought to expand its influence. The organization began offering educational content and legal support services but faced challenges in connecting with its audience in North America.

THE GOAL

Amplifying Advocacy on Social Media

"Jailed for Weed" aimed to engage more potential supporters and clients, with a targeted focus on leveraging Facebook and Instagram, and enhancing conversions to their YouTube channel.

THE SOLUTION

The cornerstone of my strategy included three key elements

Dynamic Landing Page

This page served as the central hub for information, engagement, and lead capture. It was instrumental in directing online traffic and establishing a solid foundation for my digital marketing efforts.

Identifying an Effective Outreach Platform

We recognized the untapped potential of TikTok in reaching a younger, socially conscious audience. This platform became a crucial part of our outreach strategy, allowing us to engage with a broader and more diverse demographic.

Creation of Impactful Content

Our content strategy was twofold:

Short-Form Video Editing: We produced a series of weekly short-form videos, delivering the latest cannabis news and insights. This content was designed to be informative, engaging, and shareable, enhancing our presence on social media.

Innovative Use of Recorded Prisoner Calls: Transforming recorded prisoner calls into short-form videos provided a unique and powerful perspective on the human impact of cannabis laws. This content resonated deeply with our audience, fostering emotional connections and sparking conversations around cannabis advocacy.

Results

My strategic approach in expanding "Jailed for Weed's" online presence led to remarkable achievements. We not only enhanced engagement but also significantly increased our audience base, marking a new era for their digital advocacy.

  • The launch of a dedicated landing page dramatically boosted online engagement and lead generation, setting a new benchmark in our digital outreach.
  • My strategy to use TikTok paid off impressively, with one video alone garnering over 500,000 views, 23.2K likes, and 4k comments demonstrating the platform's immense potential for audience engagement.
  • Through innovative content strategies, including weekly news updates and compelling prisoner call videos, we saw a substantial increase in viewer engagement and consistent growth in our follower count across various social media platforms.
