...Or is it the good side?

I am headed home tomorrow, just visiting family in such, have a wedding to attend, and as everyone coming back to town for the wedding having a sim high school reunion.
Where I'll be seeing a whole lot of my old high school friends, the majority are still smokers. Some of them..I'm kinda personally responsible for turning them into smokers to begin with..like the bride for one not that I shoved it down her throat, but she bummed her first from me..and I was the kid with the hook up to buy cigs...so ya kinda my fault (boy, thats fun to admit)

So I really..really like to be my fault they start vaping....I've posted a few links on FB. Brought it up causally over the phone, with some of them.
Now one seems really interested, just wants to see mine first...but the rest are extremely skeptical or pretty much ignoring it.


So any suggestions on how to win them over?

Has anyone tried a disposable? Just wondering how they compare to the real thing.

Just let them try your vape with clean carts - I suggest menthol or RY4 or 555 as these seem to be the most agreeable for beginners.

All you can do is try to make sure they have the best experience they can with yours. Take a few different flavors and let them choose if they want. Tell them how it feels great to be off analogs. Point out that this could save them some money. If they don't bite it's their loss. Maybe they'll come around one day.

To answer your other question about disposables, I haven't ever used one. I've got a few friends who have some. Not sure of the models but when I pulled mine out they didn't want to try it. They explained what they had and how bad it was. But after trying mine it won't be long before they start placing orders.

People have to want to quit first... letting them know about the technology sure doesn't hurt, but if they don't have an interest right away, they probably don't want to quit right now. The day I heard about them, I was looking to buy one right away (even though I'd never seen or tried one). I wanted to quit.

The disposable is a good way to introduce someone cheaply. They work just fine. Be sure to give them a small bottle of e-liquid with it though. If using prefilled carts only, they'll hate them.
