To add products to your brand profile, you will need to log into your Brand Biz Dashboard. You can check out this FAQ on how to access the dashboard: Where do I access my brand dashboard?
Before getting started, it is important to note that you should create new products rather than editing existing products to reflect net new product details. Changing the product name and associated details has ramifications for dispensary menu data for any brand linked items. Linked menu items will inherit information from the brand product that will overlay any dispensary provided or POS system sourced information.
After logging into your Biz Dashboard, select the 'Products' option on the left side panel of your Biz Dashboard.
To add a new product, click on the 'Add New Product' at the top of the page. An editing overlay will appear on the page for you to start adding products.
