I know I'm totally new here and so far I can tell that this is an awesome one stop community for wanting to know everything about e-cigs. I'm just getting into it myself but I have a ton of question and will continue reading the forum and searching through posts to dig up info. But that said I've got a ton of questions soaring through my head.
As I've been looking around all of these dealers and suppliers websites I've been noticing a lot of similar stuff. It seems like everyone is selling the same equipment and everyone seems to be out of stock or back ordered. I've also noticed a lot of these kits are the same stuff in the same cardboard magnetic flap boxes with different designs and names. This only leads me to believe that these suppliers are getting their stuff from the same or similar manufacturer.
So I guess my question is, who is the manufacturer and how does someone get in on becoming a supplier?
Beyond that, while I've noticed that a lot of these suppliers are selling the same kind of stuff, there are a few who are selling something slightly different like Blu or Vapor4Life or Green Cigarette.
I'm most interested in the Vapor4Life model with the two pieces since this seems to be the easiest route for nontechnical consumers who might not want to deal with manually refilling.
Professionally I am a video shooter/editor that works for a web/design company. I have a lot of ideas and know a lot of talented people.
I'm interesting in learning as much as possible about this stuff and perhaps becoming a supplier myself. I think I can add an interesting spin on things with a well designed website, quality instruction videos, high quality photos and hopefully decent prices on top of great customer support.
But the product has to be there. I don't want to sell something that is junk either.
But those are all just ideas. At first I need to keep reading and learning as much as possible. Like I said I'm most interested in the Vapor4Life model with the two piece systems of battery+cartomizer. I'd like to know if this model (the equipment itself) is something they built and designed themselves or if this is a common model that others are selling as well. If so, who is the manufacturer?
I hope I'm not breaking any rules asking this, especially being a beginner myself. I certainly don't want to take any business away from Vapor4Life. By next week I'll be one of their customers myself. Plus these ideas of mine might just be ideas. They might never come to fruition. But I think this is a growing market and it seems to me that their model is the most likely to succeed in the mainstream. Especially in real stores and not just online sales. There are a lot of people like my mom who might love something like this but don't use the internet and would probably be hesitant at buying something like this if she couldn't just walk into a store to buy this stuff.
P.S. Is the word "Cartomizer" owned by Vapor4Life or is it a generic word they want others to be using as well for similar products?
Thank you so much.
