The "I'm High Right Now" initiative was developed to challenge common misconceptions surrounding the use of cannabis. In collaboration with Sister Merci, Receptor Brands worked together to produce this campaign. The campaign is based on the principal that it is crucial to engage overlooked demographics, particularly older generations, who have been significantly misinformed about cannabis and its products. These individuals have the potential to benefit greatly by rediscovering and understanding these products.
“While almost fifty percent of U.S. adults have tried cannabis, there is an opportunity for older adults to engage more directly with dispensaries and regulated products,” said Allison Disney, Cannabis Media Council Board creative lead. “We need to show publications and media outlets that the cannabis industry is serious and mature, has resources and will purchase ads. That will encourage more publishers, previously apprehensive to support cannabis, to run our ads and marketing messages. This campaign is the first step to achieving that goal.”
