NuggMD Launches Patient Choice Awards to Elevate Cannabis Consumer Voices

The NuggMD Patient Choice Awards represent a significant step forward in recognizing the preferences and voices of cannabis consumers across the United States. This innovative, consumer-driven awards program, announced by NuggMD, the country's leading telehealth platform for cannabis, aims to provide a platform for cannabis brands to promote their products while gathering valuable feedback from their customers. The awards will be conducted digitally, with voting open from Feb. 25 to March 31, and winners announced on April 11.

Categories for the awards include cannabis products, brands, dispensaries, technology, and creators, offering a comprehensive overview of the industry's offerings. NuggMD plans to utilize its representative sample of 1.2 million frequent cannabis consumers, part of its NuggMD Cannabis Consumer Poll, to encourage participation and ensure a wide range of voices are heard. Brands are encouraged to engage their audiences to compete for recognition and promotional assets.

Robert Brock, VP of marketing at NuggMD, emphasized the importance of this initiative, stating, "The worn-out stereotypes of cannabis consumers are no longer anywhere close to the reality on the ground. Most people who use cannabis today do so for wellness, not indulgence, and trust a friend’s product recommendation over a brand’s or budtender’s." This shift underscores the need for a platform like the Patient Choice Awards, which empowers consumers to highlight the brands and products that best meet their needs.

For those interested in participating, more information is available on the NuggMD website. This initiative not only reflects the evolving landscape of cannabis consumption but also sets a precedent for consumer engagement and feedback in the industry.
