Groundbreaking Cannabis Educational and Awareness Campaign, "Hmm Did You Know" Kicks off on Television During Prime Time Programming

Las Vegas, Nevada – October 8, 2018 /AxisWire/ For the first time in history, cannabis education commercials hit mainstream television. A groundbreaking media blitz campaign for the upcoming cannabis online TV network, Hmm Did You Know (HDYK) aired a number of :30 commercial spots during primetime programming on stations including BRAVO, Discovery and the History Channel in the greater LA market. The spot featured Senator Positive T.A. Nelson, a seven-term Senator from the island of St. Croix, discussing the science and economic power of medical cannabis.  The HDYK campaign suggests that standards are shifting for cannabis marketing in legal states.

The spot, created by 420MEDIA, a Seattle, NYC and Nevada-based digital marketing and media agency serving the legal cannabis industry, is the first in a series that will feature prominent voices in the cannabis industry and community.

“The rationale behind medicinal cannabis is real, the science is real, the economics behind it is real, the health behind it is real, and the opportunities behind are very real” says Senator Nelson in the spot promoting the Hmm Did You Know Online Cannabis Network, a collaborative effort with 420MEDIA to launch an internet based digital video service that provides insight, education, and entertainment in the world of cannabis. The network will give audiences a clear representation of the cannabis plant and industry through premium content, innovative advertising, and a personalized experience.

“This first cannabis education spot for the HDYK Network marks an important milestone for the cannabis industry. For the first time, cannabis industry commercials have now gone mainstream and we are ecstatic to reach large populations during primetime with messages on the benefits of cannabis,” says Kerri Accardi, CEO of 420MEDIA.

“We are happy to break through and deliver the message that will reach national audiences. This is the first of many slated for this cannabis awareness education campaign with other renowned and very familiar faced cannabis experts in the sports, medical and entertainment field sharing their wealth of information about benefits of medical cannabis.,” she adds.

The first spot was co-sponsored by 420MEDIA along with several cannabis-based organizations and businesses including:
