i'm just curious, what kind of success rates have all of you seen with converting smokers in your life into vapers?
of the many people that i know who smoke, try as i might (usually VERY casually), i think i've successfully converted just one - a friend. they wanted to quit, we both wanted to quit for that matter. when i finally pulled it off, they couldn't believe it but yet there i was, smoke-free. so i kept bugging them about it... annoyingly, to be honest. and yes, i do recognize how annoying i was (sorry friend! lol) but eventually they caved. part of it was just offering them my e-cig every time i saw them going for a cig, saying something like "before you light that, puff on this and then tell me that you still want a cigarette." at first, they'd puff it a bit, say they liked it, but then they'd eventually light up a cigarette. that was basically how it was up until i bought some creme brulee e-juice and shared it with them. apparently, that's all it took. while the mint is my thing and i never bought the creme brulee again (yuck lol), apparently all she needed was a flavor that fit her tastes and she was sold. within days of puffing on the creme brulee, we went out and bought her first vape. these days, she's a full time vaper and like me, can't believe that either of us has actually quit smoking lol.
that is my one success story lol but i'd love to hear all of yours! ready, set, share!
