The data is sorted in descending order within each section and can be filtered by state (available options are based on your Listing Plus account).

Retailer insights

Retailer insights identify prospects, upsells, and restock opportunities with top retailers. You can determine that the right products are in the right place and monitor consistent inventory levels.


Price comparison

The Price comparison tab surfaces the minimum and maximum price range of your top 15 brand products, with the ability to drill down to retailer details.

The price spread calculates the gap by dividing the minimum by the maximum price. You can use this chart to spot-check your pricing with the most Brand Linked products across our retailer network:

  • Brand sell-through at a glance (this data is across all of Weedmaps):

  • State coverage map: Displays retailers carrying one of your Brand Linked products across all states.

  • Retailer distribution opportunities: Lists the top 25 retailers in your state and category, indicating if they are carrying your products.

  • Your top 10 retailers: List of top 10 retailers carrying your products with details on their products.

  • Menu item share by retailer: A list of retailers carrying your products, with a calculation of your menu share compared to other brands.

Tips:

  • Identify retailers that carry your products and are not yet linked to your catalog. Provide the list to your Account Management team, who will submit a request to our Curation team to link the retailers to your catalog.

  • Identify opportunities to upsell and restock your top 10 products that customers actively seek and consider.

  • Target and map out opportunities to increase menu share at your retailers.
