How it all started.
Cannabiz Marketing Solutions wasn’t planned. There were no corporate meetings behind closed doors with billionaire backers looking to angel invest in a marketing company for cannabis. It just kind of happened…. like evolution.
After years of affiliate, client and local SEO projects, there came a point of clarity. The original local SEO company, Rebel Base SEO helped tons of local and small businesses generate positive ROI online. The pain point was that we maintained a constant influx of random leads and each new project required tons of research for the niche. Sometimes we did our job too well, and the client ended up selling their business (This happened 3 times in 2 years).
It took a bit of deep diving, soul searching and number crunching for figure out what we were truly passionate about. When the dust settled we figured out that the best clients we ever worked with as a whole came from the cannabis industry.
It’s always a little risky turning down multiple 6 figures a year in client SEO, but the heart wants what the heart wants. When it all boils down to it, we are passionate about cannabis… and we know what it takes to get results.
We have put together a passionate team of cannabis enthusiasts. See why we love what we do.

Hank Klinger
Copywriter/Content Creator
Making Magic Happen through Language
Swinging through the trees of life, Hank found his way online after 8 years commercial fishing the Bering Sea. After 5 years affiliate marketing as a top producer for Empower Network, the company brought him on as a copywriter. Unfortunately, things happen, and the company dissolved overnight.
Feeling lost, Hank soon found himself. This time in eCom, this new obsession, became his life. After a month of no sleep with a grumpy Russian business partner, they blasted into the biggest week of their life. The giant leap in sales, caught the eyes of a wealthy Bangladeshi businessman – who took Hank around the world, helping improve his public speaking capabilities.
It eventually ended as things do, Hank then went back to what he knew, Growing cannabis. While fun, his heart wasn’t in it, his passion was online. And with a stroke of luck, Founder/CEO Max Juhaz heard about Hank’s writing skills, he reached out to him, and the rest is history…
