CAMPAIGN LEARNINGS

Having no samples meant that we were unable to begin our proposed blogger outreach

The lack of listings meant it was not possible to outreach to consumer media as their readers need to know where they can buy the products they feature

Moving forward we would look to place more generic hemp pieces with the feature written during the campaign
