Introducing Spark Pro: Empowering Budtenders with Data-Driven Insights
Jointly announced in a news release the launch of Spark Pro, a cutting-edge AI tool designed to revolutionize the cannabis retail experience by equipping budtenders with essential data and insights.
Spark Pro aims to bridge the knowledge gap that often hampers budtenders, thereby enhancing customer service and optimizing dispensaries' performance.
The Role of Budtenders in Cannabis Retail
Budtenders play a crucial role in the cannabis ecosystem. They guide customers to the right products and provide accurate answers to a wide range of questions.
However, the rapid pace of cannabis legalization has outstripped the dissemination of comprehensive usage information, making the budtender's job challenging.
As David Kooi, CEO and Co-Founder of Jointly, explains in the release, "Budtenders are expected to be therapists, psychologists, pharmacists, educators, merchandisers, plant biologists, and guides to the consumer. All while being effective retail salespeople."
