Background

Lumberjack’s Provisioning Center partnered with Web Rank Digital to increase local visibility, drive consistent in-store traffic, and dominate high-intent searches for cannabis products and accessories in Dowling, Michigan. With customers relying heavily on Google Search and Google Maps to find nearby provisioning centers, strong local SEO visibility was critical for sustained growth.

Operating in a competitive cannabis retail market, Lumberjack’s needed a Local SEO strategy that would not only improve engagement but also achieve keyword dominance across Maps and local search results—without relying on paid advertising.
