Weed Man has appointed Laura Baker as its new Chief Marketing Officer, a strategic leadership move poised to enhance the brand’s market presence across North America. The announcement marks a significant step in the company’s trajectory, reflecting its ambitions to evolve into a billion-dollar brand in the lawn care industry.
Laura Baker brings with her an impressive portfolio of experience, having held senior marketing roles at notable Canadian companies including Home Hardware Stores Limited, Tim Hortons, Edward Jones Canada, and Sleep Country Canada.

Her focus will center on scaling the brand’s national footprint, enhancing digital marketing initiatives, and fostering deeper franchise engagement.
As Weed Man continues to expand its franchise network, Baker’s appointment is expected to bring both creative vision and data-driven execution to the organization’s marketing efforts, positioning it for sustainable growth and elevated brand awareness in an increasingly competitive landscape.
