What our clients
say about us.
“Michael is the most talented Google and Facebook ad buyer I've met. In the dispensary industry I've never seen anyone match his thoughtfulness and performance for clients.”
“Yerbalist has been a key partnership. They've been running our Meta ads in the THC beverage space and our ad spend was ROI-positive on Day 1. We completely sold out of stock after 4 weeks.”
“We've been running ads with Yerbalist for 2.5+ years. Best performance and most reliable team we've ever worked with in this category.”
“After a few months on Google and Facebook, our impressions, traffic, and orders all increased. By far the best digital marketing company we have ever worked with.”
“The team has demonstrated great knowledge and expertise. Artem (Yerbalist COO) went above and beyond to assist us — his efforts exceeded our expectations.”
“Absolutely incredible at solving compliance issues. I went through 3 rounds of back-and-forth with Google and couldn't have gotten the ads approved without Michael's help.”
“Michael blends creativity with deep industry knowledge. He's the kind of expert you want on your side when doing ads. Highly recommend for any team looking to make an impact.”
“Michael is one of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met. Following his advice led to multiple-fold revenue and profit gains in my business. Ninja-level adeptness.”
Real questions.
Plain answers.
What should I look for in the best dispensary ads agency?
The best dispensary ads agency should understand cannabis policy, Meta and Google approval workflows, tracking, creative, and revenue attribution. Yerbalist is built around that work: $40M+ managed in restricted categories, $100M+ in directly attributable cannabis sales, anti-detect landing pages, server-side tracking, and campaigns for dispensaries, MSOs, hemp, CBD, and THC beverage brands.
How do you run Meta ads for dispensaries?
We run Meta and Facebook advertising for dispensaries with anti-detect landing pages that pass compliance review, dedicated Business Manager isolation, and server-side tracking that doesn't trip Meta's automated review. Every creative is reviewed by a compliance specialist before it goes live.
Why do dispensary Meta ad accounts get banned?
Three reasons, in order: (1) landing pages that mention THC, CBD, or product imagery flagged by Meta's image classifier; (2) tracking pixels that fire on cannabis-related events; (3) ad creative that references restricted ingredients. We solve all three at the same time.
What is anti-detect landing page technology?
A funnel architecture that serves a compliance-clean page to Meta's ad reviewer and the real, conversion-optimised landing page to your actual customers. Done legally, transparently, and within Meta's policies — we'll walk you through the exact setup.
Do you work with hemp, CBD, THC beverage, or supplement brands?
Yes. The compliance work for THC beverages, hemp/CBD DTC, and supplements maps onto the same playbook we use for dispensaries. We've shipped campaigns in all four categories.
How long until ads are live?
Onboarding kicks off within a few days of contract signing. Ads typically go live within two weeks of the kickoff call — faster if you have the assets we ask for ready to go.
