Curating Customer Service at a Cannabis Company

In the cannabis industry, customer service is about guiding people through a highly-regulated world with patience, empathy, and compliance as your North Star.

At Indacloud, we don’t just “handle tickets.”…

We curate calm, protect your packages, educate with intention, and reflect our community’s needs in every interaction.

Here’s what it really takes to keep the clouds moving AND the customers coming back.

Meet the Team Behind the Clouds

Customer support in da clouds isn’t a one-person job, oh no no mi amigo, it’s a fully integrated team effort. Processing refunds and reviewing fraud alerts to resolving shipping issues and answering those “Is this real?” questions, our support crew handles every layer of the customer journey with calm, clarity, and a whole lot of care.

• Richie (Manager): Leads with strategy, accountability, and the kind of patience that keeps the inbox balanced and the team supported.
• Our Core CS Team: A group of dispensary trained, detail-oriented, resolution-driven reps who manage daily tickets, track packages, handle replacement requests, and communicate clearly at every step.
• Our Beloved Ana: Based in the Philippines, Ana provides consistent, reliable support during overnight and early-morning hours, ensuring 24/7 coverage across time zones.
• Mona (Community Manager): Bridges customer care and social media, responding to public comments, flagging issues for the support team, and keeping Indacloud’s voice authentic and engaged.

This crew works across time zones and departments, including fulfillment, compliance, and marketing, to make sure your experience stays smooth, safe, and genuinely satisfying.

Efficiency Starts with Takt Time

We don’t just aim to “respond fast.” We aim to respond smart.

Takt time is the pace at which support must operate to meet customer demand without burnout or backlog. It’s how we ensure that when someone emails about a missing an online order, they’re not ghosted for three days.

Your Weed, Your Privacy, Your Peace

When you shop with us, you’re not just placing an order… you’re trusting us with your time, money, and mailbox.

And we take that seriously.

Our website is built with your protection in mind, starting with an age verification gate to keep things compliant and illegal cannabis-access limited.

From there, it’s all secure clicks and smooth scrolls. Behind the scenes, we’ve got:

• Fraud detection software to stop shady orders in real-time
  (not today, ya criminals)
• Manual reviews on suspicious activity before anything ships
  (email us, screenshot everything and we can handle the rest!)
• Ongoing partnerships with trusted platforms and vendors to protect your payment and delivery data (we care about your safety as much as you do <3)
• Package protection available at checkout
  (we dont force you, but we do recommend it!)
• And an epic 30-day money-back guarantee
  (well, because peace of mind should come standard)

We also don’t play when it comes to safety:

if we spot something malicious or fraudulent, we report it directly to the proper authorities.

Meaning whether you’re placing your first order or your fifteenth restock, you can count on a shopping experience that’s private, protected, and built for calm.

Cannabis Customers Are Unique And Our Support Has to Be Too

Cannabis customers range from nervous first-timers to experienced daily users. #iykyk

The questions are wildly different, but our tone never changes: curious, calm, clear.

We’ve been asked everything under the sun, from the hilarious to serious topics like:

• “How much of this 500mg beast mode gummy should I take if I’ve never tried edibles?”
• “What’s the difference between THCa and Delta-9?”
• “Is this stuff even legal in my state?”

Instead of cookie-cutter replies, we lean into education.

And honestly, if we don’t know the answer, we find someone who does.

We Don’t Just Reply… We Build Relationships

The customer journey doesn’t stop at checkout.

In fact, some of our most important work happens after the sale.

• We follow up on concerns.
• We celebrate customer wins (yes, even when it’s “I finally slept 8 hours thanks to y’all”).
• We respond on Reddit, TikTok, Instagram, and even Facebook at 10pm when someone’s worried they overdosed on half a gummy.

Mona, our Social and Community Manager, responds to just about every single social comment, tag, or post mention! If you have thoughts, please share them! Whether it’s a question, praise, or a meme about eating 3 BeastMode Gummies and unlocking the astral plane. We consider this customer service too!

Our Secret Sauce? SOPs and a Whole Lot of Heart

Thanks to SOPs written by and refined by our team, no one’s guessing what to do. Refund policies to THCa shipping rules, our internal playbook keeps the vibes chill and the compliance sharp.

We update these every month based on:

• Ticket patterns and consumer behavior
• Product changes and regulation updates
• Platform rule updates (@ Instagram…)

And when the rules shift? So do we.

We’re Not Just Selling Products… We’re Earning Trust

Cannabis is still misunderstood in a lot of places. That means every single touchpoint matters. Every time we reply, every label we print, every time someone says “I’ve never tried this before…” That’s our chance to show them what a thoughtful cannabis company looks like.

So if you ever DM us, comment on our post, or reach out about a cloudy order status, please know this:

You’re talking to a team that actually gives a puff.
