6 Ways to Become a Top Cannabis Seed E-Commerce Store

In today’s competitive e-commerce marketplace, making your business stand out is more critical than ever. Today, we discuss the most important things you can do to ensure your online cannabis seed company’s success — and how Symple Seeds can help. 

Whether you are an established cannabusiness looking to expand your offerings or an entrepreneur looking to fill a niche in the cannabis industry, selling cannabis seeds online is an excellent avenue for substantial potential profits. More customers than ever are making purchases online, and the cannabis industry continues to grow across all sectors. 

For new cannabis business owners, selling cannabis seeds online is a great way to enter the market. For established cannabis businesses, adding seeds to your product offerings is a great way to set yourself apart from the competition and add inexpensive impulse buys to your virtual storefront. 

The legality of your venture is one of the most important things to address when starting a new cannabis business. Luckily, recent clarifications have established that cannabis seeds are federally legal to ship under the 2018 Farm Bill. 

The 2018 Farm Bill federally legalized hemp products and clarified that hemp products must legally contain less than 0.3% THC. Because cannabis seeds do not contain THC, they are considered hemp products. It is, therefore, now legal to buy, sell and ship hemp and cannabis seeds everywhere in the United States.

Symple Seeds has experience supplying cannabis seeds to all types of consumers. We believe these are the six most important things you can do to ensure your cannabis seed store’s success. 

First, you should optimize your website to make it as easy to find and use as possible. Update your search engine optimization (SEO) strategies so your store ranks highly on your targeted search engine results pages (SERPs). Ensure your website is fast-loading and easy to use, too, since about 50% of online shoppers will abandon their carts if the website takes more than a few seconds to load. 

Ensuring that you stock the products customers are looking for is essential to the success of your business. When trying to run a successful online cannabis seed store, you must pay attention to the cultivars that customers want. Is there a specific strain, cannabinoid, or terpene profile that is going viral? If so, you will want to make sure to stock those seeds. 

Once you have optimized your website and researched strains, Symple Seeds can help you add e-commerce cannabis seeds to your existing website. By integrating the e-commerce experience into your website, you won’t lose any of your hard-earned SEO value or brand recognition. 

It’s not enough to carry the same seeds as everyone else: your cannabis seed business must set itself apart from the competition with unique product offerings. Symple Seeds can help you source rare, highly sought-after cultivars to appeal to esoteric cannabis connoisseurs. We can even help you create your own signature strain to offer your customers seeds and cultivars they can’t buy elsewhere.

Payment processing in the e-commerce cannabis industry isn’t always straightforward, but Symple Seeds offers a proprietary payment processing platform that can be added directly to your e-commerce website. It is secure and easy for customers to use, and it provides you with up-to-the-moment data to ensure your business’s success and keep your customers happy. 

Finally, it’s essential to ensure your customers receive orders promptly. Whether you fulfill your customer’s orders yourself by sourcing bulk and wholesale cannabis seeds from Symple Seeds or you let us take care of shipping and logistics with our cannabis seed dropshipping program, we have solutions to help you get your customer’s orders sent out quickly and reliably.
