Advertising Attribution: How to Know Which Cannabis Ads Are Driving Dollars

Many cannabis marketers struggle to connect the dots between their advertising efforts and sales. The truth is customers rarely convert after seeing just one ad. Instead, they engage with multiple touchpoints on their buyer’s journey — CTV, Digital Out-of-Home (DOOH), Display, Google Search, SEO, and more—before making a purchase. Yet, most businesses still rely on outdated last-click attribution, which only credits the final interaction and ignores the role of brand awareness and the halo effect.

In this webinar, we’ll break it all down in simple terms. You’ll learn what an attribution model is, why it matters, and how to assign value across different marketing channels properly. No more guessing which ads are working—this session will help you measure and optimize your marketing for real results.

Key Topics Covered:

• Understanding the Halo Effect – how brand awareness drives conversions across all channels.
• Types of attribution models: Last-Click, Linear, Time Decay, Position-Based, and Data-Driven.
• How to assign weights to each media channel, from CTV and DOOH to Display, Native, and Paid Search.
• Simple steps to set up an MTA model without getting lost in complex data.
