Top Tips to Promote Coloring Pages and Weed Shirts Like a Pro
Let’s be honest: just having dope products like 420 coloring pages or weed-themed shirts isn’t enough. The internet is full of cool things. The key? Making your brand impossible to ignore.
Whether you're just starting out or trying to scale what you've already built, this guide will walk you through real, human strategies to actually get eyeballs—and sales—on your weed-friendly creations. These aren’t recycled “post three times a week” tips. We’re going deep.
1. Build Your Brand First—Even If It’s ScrappyBefore promoting anything, make sure people understand what you're about. This doesn’t mean having a fancy logo or a six-figure budget.
What you do need:
A vibe people instantly recognize
A clear niche (420 lifestyle, cannabis wellness, trippy art, etc.)
Consistent colors, language, and tone across your platforms
If someone sees your coloring page or tee on Pinterest or TikTok, they should feel like they’ve seen your brand before—even if it’s their first time.
2. Create Scroll-Stopping VisualsIf you’re promoting coloring pages or graphic tees, your visuals are your pitch.
Tips:
Photograph coloring pages in use—a half-colored page with markers and a lit joint nearby is better than a blank mockup
For t-shirts, go beyond flatlays—show them on real people in real environments (rooftop sesh, smoke circle, cozy indoor setup)
Use short video loops (like hands coloring while smoke curls by) to boost social engagement
Apps like CapCut and Canva can help you edit quickly without looking basic.
3. SEO the Hell Out of Your ListingsWhether you’re selling on Etsy, Amazon KDP, Gumroad, or your own site—SEO is your traffic driver.
For coloring pages:
Use keywords like “printable stoner coloring book,” “420 mandalas PDF,” “weed coloring pages for adults”
For t-shirts:
“Funny 420 shirts,” “weed graphic tees,” “stoner fashion,” “cannabis-themed clothing”
Don’t overstuff your titles—just be specific, searchable, and human.
4. Use Pinterest Like a Marketing WeaponPinterest is low-key a goldmine for both niches.
How to make it work:
Pin vertical images of your coloring pages in action (add keywords in the pin description)
Create a board for “420 Outfit Inspo” and pin your shirts alongside other dope looks
Add your site link to every pin
Use Tailwind or Pinterest’s native scheduler to post regularly
It’s visual, evergreen, and click-happy. Perfect for your niche.
5. Grow a Niche Email List—Even If It’s SmallYour email list doesn’t need to be massive. It just needs to care.
Give them something free to join:
A free “chill vibes” coloring page
A discount code for your newest tee drop
A 420 playlist + exclusive art bundle
Use platforms like MailerLite or ConvertKit to keep it simple. Then send high-value content, not just sales.
Try:
“This month’s coloring prompt + strain pairing”
“Behind the tee: how we designed our latest drop”
“Stoner artist spotlight + freebie inside”
6. Tap Into Micro-Influencers Who Actually SmokeSkip the mega-influencers who don’t give a puff about your brand. Instead, find cannabis-friendly micro-creators (under 10K followers) who have an engaged audience.
DM them casually. Offer a free shirt or coloring bundle. Let them create in their own voice—it performs better that way.
Also:
Tag them in your stories/posts
Ask for user-generated content (UGC) to repost
Highlight them in your blog or email list
It builds credibility and spreads organically.
7. Go All-In on Short-Form Video (Don’t Overthink It)Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts are still the fastest way to get seen.
What works:
Time-lapse coloring sessions (bonus points if weed smoke floats by)
“Stoner OOTD” fit checks featuring your tees
“POV: You just found the dopest coloring page while high”
Quick tutorials: how to print + color your pages, how to style your shirt
Keep it casual. Keep it real. No one wants a polished ad—they want a vibe.
8. Don’t Sleep on Reddit & Niche ForumsReddit has entire threads filled with your audience.
Try posting in:
r/trees
r/stonerart
r/ArtTherapy
r/weedporn (for visuals)
r/cannabisbusiness (for feedback)
Join the convo—don’t spam. Drop your stuff only when it fits naturally into the thread. Share your process. Show your personality. Reddit users respect authenticity hard.
9. Run a Chill GiveawayThis isn’t just about free stuff—it’s about reach.
Do it right:
“Tag 2 stoners who need this coloring set”
“Follow + share for a chance to win our new weed tee”
Bonus entry if they join your email list
Give away something small. A shirt, a 3-pack of pages, whatever. The exposure’s worth it—and giveaways get engagement like crazy.
10. Track What Actually Works and Drop What Doesn’tIf Pinterest is driving 90% of your traffic, double down.
If your Instagram is getting zero reach? Try something new—email, Reddit, even in-person pop-ups.
Use free tools like:
Linktree analytics
Shopify or Etsy dashboards
Google Analytics
UTM links on social to see where clicks come from
Stay flexible. Follow the traffic.
Final Word: Be Consistent, Be Human, Be Weird (If You Want)You don’t need to be a marketing wizard to succeed. You just need to:
Know your people
Show up consistently
Share stuff that feels you
There’s a growing crowd of weed-loving, art-appreciating humans out there who are tired of generic brands and craving something real.
Give them that.
And if you’re looking for done-for-you, high-vibe coloring pages or stoner apparel that actually sells, hit up Color High Club and make your next promo 10x easier.
