Utilizing the Marketplace For Strong Holiday Sales
“We did $40-50k in new business overnight without promoting (the Market) whatsoever. They just started click… click… clicking.“
Many Cultivera clients have full access to the numerous benefits included in the Cultivera Pro environment. The best of these benefits tend to come from utilization of the Cultivera Market. In Washington alone, over 90% of active cannabis retailers are on the Market. Just last quarter, Washington’s Marketplace saw over $57M in sales orders.
Check out our latest Spotlight on excellent Marketplace utilization by Ceres Garden. Since going live they’ve been rising in the Top 10 Vendors chart, and now they are in 2nd place for total sales volume overall, boosting sales and helping them continue to scale their operations.
You can give your own holiday sales a boost and get a strong start to 2026 by making sure your own Market webstore is live. If you’re not sure how, we can help.
Be Ready For The New Year
Running a successful cannabis operation requires accurate record keeping both from compliance and financial perspective, especially at this time of year. But if you’re still spending hours manually entering data, you’re wasting valuable time and energy.
When it comes to your financial records it is important to assess the health of your operation. Moreover, you also need access to accurate financial data, especially when planning or filing your taxes. It’s critical to keep accurate sales data in an automated fashion that integrates with your existing accounting solution, without devoting extra time and money. You can save time on data entry and reporting with Cultivera Pro’s simplified seed-to-sale integrations.
Cultivera cannabis business software allows you to integrate your sales data to QuickBooks Online. As a result, you can keep accurate financial data while easily staying compliant with your state traceability system. Without these records, it will be a challenge to assemble the exact figures for your business, which are essential to a hassle-free tax season.

Stay Connected
We know this time of year can be a flurry of activity and emails. Don’t let your valued connections get lost in the haze. Stay connected with everyone by using the Cultivera Pro CRM, with a simple interface that allows your reps to log touchpoints with prospects or existing clients. Reconnect with clients and vendors by reaching out in the Cultivera Pro CRM with a quick holiday message.
Send season’s greetings, a newsletter, or exclusive holiday discounts on orders placed through your Market portal. Go a step further by using the cannabis relationship management notes! The information logged into the CRM by your sales team is ideal for creating customized messages. Use these notes to offer your most loyal customers and buyers discounts that fit their needs and interests.

Referring Your Cannabis Network
Would you recommend Cultivera to your cannabis business network?
After recently crossing the $4,000,000,000 dollar threshold in sales orders, we’ve been looking at ways to give back. We know it’s our incredible network of cannabis operations and entrepreneurs that brought us to this point.
To show our gratitude for this amazing industry, we want to give something back through our expanded referral program.
For the holiday season we are expanding our referral program beyond our client network, to anyone in the industry. So, now through January, anyone can participate and get rewarded in the new year.
Just follow this simple criteria:
- Tell your cannabis business network about Cultivera’s steamlined services from seed to point-of-sale.
- When they book a demo have them enter your name in the Referral section.
- If they sign up for Cultivera, we reward you!
Your referral group must remain active for a minimum of 60 days after their initial onboarding and training period.
