Case Study: How Elevated Minds Cannabis Achieved Top 3 Ranking on Google Maps in 6 Months

About Client:

Elevated Minds Cannabis is an independent cannabis retailer in the GTA, with locations in Hamilton and Scarborough.  Their mission? To be at the forefront of the cannabis industry while delivering premium products and an educational, empowering shopping experience to their community.

Goals:

Elevated Minds had been in their neighbourhoods for years, but many locals didn't know about them. Customers would often walk in, surprised, saying, “I’ve lived here for years and never noticed you!” As a result, when they approached us, their primary goals were to increase foot traffic and sales. On top of this, they also wanted to be seen as a safe and trustworthy  community partner.

Solution:

To help Elevated Minds increase visibility in their local area, we optimized their website and Google Maps listing to secure a top three position for relevant searches like "cannabis store near me."

Results:

• 189% Increase in keyword rankings

• Top 3 ranking on Google Maps

• 237 Keywords Ranking on Google

In the span of just half a year, Elevated Minds has undergone a remarkable evolution — from being practically invisible in their local communities to top-three rankings on Google Maps and nearly tripling their overall keyword rankings. We're beyond proud of their growth. With their momentum, there's no telling how far they'll go.
