With 420 coming up fast, many are quickly trying to figure out how to celebrate in a social distanced world, according to MJ Biz Daily.


The outlet reports various digital strategies including:


“Virtual parties and concerts,” “giveaways of cannabis accessories and swag, discounts on products, such as companies offering a coin for a large purchase now and special deals for the rest of the year [and] using social media influencers to spread their message on Instagram and Facebook.”
