As 4/20 approaches, the importance of budtenders in the cannabis industry is highlighted. They serve as consultants, specialists, and even therapists, guiding customers through product choices. By offering personalized recommendations based on their product knowledge and customer interactions, budtenders enhance the shopping experience significantly. Just as tipping is an expected norm in restaurants, cannabis consumers should extend that appreciation to budtenders who often rely on tips to augment their modest salaries, particularly in smaller dispensaries where pay may be constrained.
A good budtender isn't just ringing up your order. They're part cannabis consultant, part product specialist, and part therapist depending on the day.
This firsthand knowledge is what turns a simple purchase into a personalized recommendation. And when they remember your favorite strain or suggest something better than your go-to.
No one thinks twice about tipping a server after a good meal. In fact, it's expected. The same should apply to budtenders.
Budtenders often rely on tips to supplement modest wages. Many dispensaries, especially smaller ones, can't afford to pay higher salaries.
