FAQ
Questions, answered.
How important is the map pack for a smoke shop?
It is most of the game. Nearly all smoke shop discovery is a phone searching 'smoke shop near me' or 'head shop open now'. If you are not in the top three map results, you are invisible for that search. We manage your Google Business Profile, categories, hours, photos, products, review velocity and citation consistency to fight for those slots.
Can smoke shops advertise on paid platforms?
Selectively. Glass, accessories and general retail creative can be eligible where it does not promote tobacco, nicotine or THC products. Age-gating and careful creative are required. We lean harder on local search, maps, geofencing and owned SMS because those carry the message reliably.
What does SMS loyalty look like for a shop like ours?
A consented list built at the counter and online, segmented by what people buy, with drops tied to new inventory, slow days and restock cycles. Carrier-registered, STOP and HELP handled automatically, and consent never a condition of purchase.
Do you handle age-gating?
Yes. Age-gated site entry, age-flagged audiences, creative written to avoid restricted claims, and a paid structure built to survive review.
We have three stores. Does the playbook change?
Each store needs its own location page, profile, geofences and review engine — the biggest multi-location mistake is one generic page for the whole company. Reporting rolls up, marketing stays local.
How long before local search moves?
Profile and citation work often moves map-pack position inside 30 to 60 days. Organic page rankings usually take longer. SMS and geofencing produce traffic while the organic work compounds.
