The Requirement

Leafwire wanted to launch the first social media/networking site focused on the cannabis industry. They needed a development team who could quickly launch MVPs and new features. Being in such a fast- growing market meant the need for fast development was essential. A team with an understanding of the cannabis industry was prioritized to enable clear communication about the project, the customers, and the features to be developed.

The platform needed to be easy to use, and engaging enough to inspire consistent repeat users.

The Solution

Furthermore, creative and competitive design has been a focal point to increase viewership as well as increase revenue.
