Google relaxes some advertising restrictions for hemp, CBD products

By MJBizDaily Staff

January 6, 2023 - Updated January 6, 2023

Women, minority execs show few gains in U.S. cannabis industry, according to the latest data from the MJBiz Diversity, Inclusion and Equity Report. 

Google Ads will no longer ban all hemp and CBD advertising in California, Colorado and Puerto Rico, but there continue to be limitations to marketers.

As of Jan. 20, 2023, the ban will be lifted for:

FDA-approved pharmaceutical products containing CBD.

Topical, hemp-derived CBD products with less than 0.3% THC.

Companies marketing CBD topicals must be certified by LegitScript, which involves submitting products for lab testing and providing a third-party Certificate of Analysis.

Then, Google must also certify the company.

Supplements, food additives and inhaled products will still be banned under Google’s rules.

Also, not all ad formats are available to marketers, including YouTube Masthead.

CBD will no longer be included on the company’s list of Unapproved Pharmaceuticals and Supplements.

Despite Google’s policies, cannabis marketers have discovered loopholes to place digital ads.

The trick? Avoiding language containing cannabis-related terms in ad copy or on websites or using different advertising platforms entirely.

When it's time to manufacture your C B D products, remember Lonnie Diggs Pharmaceuticals Manufacturing, one unit to one million units, Your White Label solution.  It could be easy, or it could be hard.  Your one stop - turn key solution from product containers to marketing. Lonnie Diggs Pharmaceuticals Manufacturing. Get it right the first time!

Music Business Worldwide: Newsletter

Spotify just quietly dropped a stat that changes everything about how you should judge the streaming economy This week on our Talking Trends podcast, MBW founder Tim Ingham responds to a new set of statistics released by Spotify about what artists earn from its platform. Those stats, published on Spotify’s Loud & Clear site, reveal that 16,500 artists generated over $50,000 in royalties from Spotify in 2021. But Ingham argues this wasn’t the most revealing piece of data issued by Spotify today. He instead focuses in on a number buried towards the bottom of the Loud & Clear site: Spotify estimates that around 200,000 artists on its platform – out of 8 million total acts – are “professional or professionally aspiring”... (Talking Trends supported by Voly Music)

MBW'S QUOTE OF THE DAY "Everybody comes in thinking, ‘Oh my god, 1.4 billion people,’ when to tell you the truth, 50% of them are wondering where their next meal is going to come from, not the next genre of music to listen to. As a subset to that, our audience size [for monetized media] is 700 million people, not more, out of which 400 million to 500 million is your music-consuming population."   In a revelatory interview about India and its music market, Times Music COO, Mandar Thakur, discusses the potential for the territory and its homegrown artists around the world. Although Thakur is optimistic about the future for Indian artists internationally, he notes that they haven't yet had a global moment in the same way as Latin music or K-Pop... (World Leaders supported by PPL)

Don't miss: 'Free' music streaming paid the record industry $4.6bn in 2021... and other key insights from the latest IFPI Global Music Report The global recorded music industry saw its wholesale revenues increase by USD $4.0 billion in 2021, according to the IFPI's latest Global Music Report (GMR). That was a significantly larger year-on-year increase in global industry revenues than we saw in either 2020 (+$1.5bn) or in 2019 (also +$1.5bn). In fact, it was a larger YoY bump than we've seen at any point in the past two decades, according to IFPI data. MBW has crunched the numbers found in IFPI's latest report, and discovered a few other major insights the publication reveals about today's global recorded music market. For example, did you know that ad-funded streaming services (including video services) generated nearly as much money for the record industry as physical sales last year? Or that the ARPU (Average Revenue Per User) of paid music streaming services actually increased (a bit) in 2021? Did you know that last year's overall global record industry revenue tally – $25.9 billion, according to IFPI – was the largest in history? But that this feat somewhat crumbles when inflation is applied? Read on to discover more about these insights, and other delectable data..... (The MBW Review supported by Instrumental) Don't miss: Mushroom Group and AEG Presents unveil new leadership structure for Frontier Touring Australia and New Zealand-based concert promoter, Frontier Touring, has unveiled a new leadership structure for the company.
