Content Call

The Content Call is your invitation to apply to be featured in OCS marketing initiatives and consumer-focused content. You’ll find available opportunities here, plus instructions on how to apply. We will also reach out to Licensed Producers for content opportunities, with an eye to featuring a diverse range of brands. 

HOW DO I APPLY?

You’ll find the opportunities listed on this page, plus how submissions are evaluated and next steps.

HERE’S HOW TO APPLY

STEP 1: Select the opportunity you’d like to be considered for.

STEP 2: Click APPLY NOW to fill out the application.

STEP 3: Provide the required information.

STEP 4: If you are selected, you will be contacted.  

WHEN CAN I APPLY?

You may apply any time, unless a deadline is specified. Licensed Producers may submit separate applications for multiple brands, but we try not to feature an individual LP or brand more than once every six months. Our goal is to include a range of Producers, so inclusion will be spread out as much as possible.

Note: All dates, topics and themes are subject to change at the discretion of the OCS Marketing Team.

WHAT OPPORTUNITIES ARE AVAILABLE?

OCS Marketing Initiatives and Content

We occasionally have the opportunity to feature LPs in various OCS marketing initiatives and consumer-focused content on OCS.ca and OCS social media platforms. Including a wide range of Licensed Producers provides the diverse viewpoints needed to tell the full story of cannabis in Ontario.

OPEN YEAR-ROUND

HOW ARE APPLICANTS SELECTED?

Applicants will be graded based on specific criteria to ensure an equitable process. Top scorers will be accepted, depending on how many participants we need. Only successful applicants will be contacted.

Criteria include:
1. Is the applicant in good financial standing with the OCS?
2. How well does the applicant fit the requirements of the opportunity?
3. Can the LP provide the required assets (such as vanity packaging, specific product sizes) and facility tours?
4. Is there something new, timely or newsworthy about the applicant that makes it a good time to include them?
5. Does the applicant have opportunities to share the final OCS.ca content on social media?

The points from this scorecard are tallied and the top scorers are accepted, depending on how many participants we need. Only successful applicants will be contacted.

WHAT HAPPENS IF I’M SELECTED?

If you are selected, you will receive an email outlining the next steps. Unsuccessful applicants will not be contacted. However, we encourage you to apply again. There is no limit to the number of times you may apply.

Thank you for your interest — your participation helps make access to legal cannabis easier for Ontarians.
