Editorial Policy
Cannabis Leaders publishes practical marketing guidance for cannabis, CBD, dispensary, ecommerce, and other restricted-market businesses. This policy explains how topics are selected, researched, written, reviewed, updated, and corrected.
Our editorial purpose
We aim to help operators make better decisions about advertising policy, SEO, AI visibility, content, CRO, analytics, and acquisition economics.
Content should answer a real business question, add useful context, cite primary sources where possible, and distinguish confirmed facts from recommendations or inference.
Authorship and accountability
Every article should identify the actual author. A person is not credited solely to increase perceived authority.
Cannabis Leaders may handle editorial production, source verification, formatting, schema, and publication while the named author remains responsible for the approved article.
Reviewer attribution is added only after a documented review has occurred.
Source standards
Policy, legal, medical, and statistical claims should prioritize current primary sources such as regulators, government publications, platform documentation, and original datasets.
Competitor or industry articles may help identify questions but should not be the sole authority for high-stakes claims.
Sources are linked close to the relevant claim or listed in a visible Sources and Methodology section.
AI-assisted production
AI tools may assist with outlining, organization, editing, comparison, or quality checks. They must not replace source verification, professional review, or editorial responsibility.
We do not publish unreviewed bulk content, fabricated experience, invented citations, or unsupported claims generated by automated tools.
Commercial independence and limitations
Cannabis Leaders offers marketing services. Relevant service links and audit calls to action may appear in articles, but commercial intent should not change the factual standard.
Case-study results are context-specific and do not guarantee rankings, approval, CPA, ROAS, sales, or other future outcomes.
