In today’s saturated cannabis retail market, customer attention is scarce and competition is relentless. Standing out isn’t optional, it’s survival. The smartest retailers know that staying connected with customers is the difference between blending in and building lasting loyalty. 

One of the most powerful ways to cut through the noise? Text message marketing. 

Unlike bolt-on texting apps or overpriced bundles that overpromise and underdeliver, Sweed redefines SMS and MMS marketing by building it directly into the all-in-one platform retailers already trust to run their business. With Sweed, compliance, performance, and ROI aren’t separate goals, they’re built-in. 

Here’s why leading dispensaries are making Sweed their SMS growth engine:

The Only Cannabis POS Approved for 10DLC Messaging

When your messages don’t reach your customers, you don’t just lose engagement, you lose revenue. Sweed is the only cannabis POS platform approved to send SMS and MMS via 10DLC (10-Digit Long Code) messaging routes. 

That means: 

  • Higher deliverability: Messages get where they’re supposed to go. 
  • Faster speeds: No delays when timing matters most. 
  • Built-in compliance: Full alignment with U.S. telecom regulations.

If your current provider isn’t 10DLC-approved, you’re risking blocked or throttled campaigns. With Sweed, your message always lands. 

Smarter Pricing, Full Control 

Cannabis retailers are done with confusing contracts, minimum bundles, and surprise carrier fees. Sweed brings clarity with simple, pay-as-you-go pricing: 

  • One flat rate per message (SMS or MMS) 
  • No phone number fees
  • No required bundles 
  • Scale up or pause anytime, without penalty

This isn’t just fairer pricing. It’s freedom. You control your spend, maximize your ROI, and scale campaigns with confidence. 

Proven ROI: Turning Messages Into Revenue 

Text marketing isn’t just about volume, it’s about results. On Sweed, dispensaries consistently see 2.5x to 8x Return on Ad Spend (ROAS). 

Why? Because SMS is personal, direct, and effective: 

  • Flash sale alerts that drive same-day traffic 
  • Loyalty rewards reminders that keep customers engaged 
  • Pickup and delivery notifications that close the loop

With Sweed’s precision targeting, every campaign is fueled by real-time POS data. That means less guesswork, more action, and measurable growth. 

Enterprise-Grade Deliverability, Cannabis-Specific Expertise

Sweed processes tens of millions of cannabis-specific messages every year, maintaining a verified 95% delivery rate. Our direct relationships with telecom carriers ensure your campaigns avoid the spam filter and actually connect.

For retailers, that translates to trustworthy performance at scale, without risking compliance or customer frustration. 

Built-In, Not Bolted On

Most “all-in-one” cannabis platforms aren’t really unified. They patch together third-party texting apps, creating clunky handoffs and data silos. 

Sweed is different. Messaging is natively built into the same POS you use every day. That gives you:

  • Real-time segmentation powered by purchase history and behavior 
  • One dashboard for sales, marketing, and messaging 
  • Seamless workflows and unified reporting 

No integrations. No Frankenstack chaos. Just one powerful system that works, together. 

Texting That Fuels the Flywheel 

SMS isn’t just a marketing channel, it’s a growth accelerator. By embedding texting into the Cannabis Revenue Optimization Flywheel, Sweed helps retailers: 

  • Grow Reach: Target and convert high-value customers with compliant promos. 
  • Elevate Experience: Deliver personal, timely offers that feel authentic, not spammy.
  • Maximize Value: Trigger upsells, cart-based nudges, and reorders that increase LTV.

This is Marketing That Performs, seamlessly connected to your operations and customer experience.
