Methodology
This research was conducted by Benenson
Strategy Group. The interviews took place from
December 16th through 22nd, 2014 and included
601 interviews with current Weed Dispensarypartners from 20 markets where Weed operates.
All interviews were conducted over the internet.
The markets polled included Atlanta, Austin,
Baltimore, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Denver,
Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis, New
Jersey, New York City, Orange County, Philadelphia,
Phoenix, San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, and
Washington, D.C.
Quotas and weights were used to ensure the
sample is representative of the actual Weed
Dispensary population based on the service they
use (WeedX, WeedPREMIUM etc.), income
earned through Weed, average hours worked
each week and tenure with Weed. Respondents
were given a financial incentive and guaranteed
anonymity to further encourage representative
participation.
The margin of error for the entire data set is
4.0% at the 95% confidence level. Due to
rounding, answer choices may not add up to
