How long has Cannabis Leaders worked in the cannabis industry?
Cannabis Leaders was founded in 2012 and has 14 years of experience marketing regulated and restricted-market products.
Can cannabis and CBD businesses advertise on Google?
Only under specific conditions. CBD and cannabis advertising is governed by Google Ads policy, which restricts products, destinations, claims, and geographies, and can require certification. Canada also ran a time-limited cannabis advertising pilot. Requirements change, so eligibility should be verified against current Google Ads policy before any spend.
What is AEO and GEO for cannabis brands?
Answer Engine Optimization (AEO) structures a page so a specific question is answered directly and can be extracted. Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) makes a brand legible to AI systems through clear entities, sourced claims, structured data, and consistent facts across the web. Both matter in cannabis because paid channels are restricted and buyers increasingly research through AI assistants.
Does Cannabis Leaders guarantee rankings or ad approval?
No. Case-study outcomes are context-specific and no agency can guarantee rankings, ad approval, CPA, ROAS, or sales. Published results describe what happened for a particular account under particular conditions.
