I've been building on Alpine IQ for 4+ years. Not just running campaigns, but designing segmentation architecture, loyalty programs, and automation systems for some of the fastest-growing MSOs in cannabis. These tutorials cover what I've actually built and what I've learned doing it. Dropping soon.

AIQ Flows: The Complete Guide
Every node type, trigger reference, best practices, and troubleshooting for AIQ Flows. All in one place.
AIQ launched Flows in February 2026. Most dispensaries have been running some version of automated journeys for a while, welcome messages, win-backs, birthday sends. But they were built manually across audiences and campaigns. Flows puts all of that into one visual canvas with real conditional logic, multi-channel routing, and near real-time triggers.
Watch AIQ Flows Tutorial: Build a Welcome Journey From Scratch (2026) for a full video walkthrough.
AIQ Flows: The Complete Guide covers every node type, how to configure triggers, how to build a channel-aware welcome series, launch requirements, flow analytics, best practices, and a full troubleshooting section.
- ✓Every node type documented with cannabis retail context, trigger, split, AI split, message, discount, gift points, delay, and persona update
- ✓Step-by-step Welcome Flow build with channel splits for email, SMS, and push, including a purchase check before any discount goes out
- ✓Best practices, launch rules, analytics overview, and a troubleshooting guide for common issues

AIQ Texting Guide
How to run compliant, high-performing cannabis SMS and MMS campaigns after 10DLC.
AIQ launched 10DLC support in late 2024, fixing a problem that had been suppressing 50 to 90 percent of cannabis text marketing at the carrier level. After registration, suppression drops below 10 percent and often closer to 1. The tradeoff: the SMS body itself is locked to a library of 72 pre-approved notice templates.
The landing page behind the link is still fully yours. Full brand voice, full product imagery, full offer language, full creative control. The SMS body is a door; the landing page is the room. Most brands don't realize that's where the real work happens.
This guide covers every part of running compliant, high-performing text campaigns in the new environment: the 72-template library, when to send, how to segment, landing page design, compliance rules that keep your account alive, and a full pre-send checklist. It pairs with a companion workbook that catalogs every template by use case.
- ✓Every one of the 72 AIQ notice templates cataloged with use cases, recommended audiences, and categorization
- ✓Send-time strategy by audience type, compliance rules in plain language, and landing page design principles
- ✓Companion Excel workbook with filterable template library, pre-send checklist, and deliverability reference
