Hey guys. I was just wondering how many people you all have brought over from the dark side. Personally, I started vaping in mid Feb and already got 2 friends to get TW Tornado kits, as well as my grandmother a set of blu's. That's about a 3 per month average... not bad! :D

Edit: both friends fully quit smoking analogs after getting their kits. Still working on my grandmother.

7 as of right now in the last few months, all are my friends and love it. Some still smoke the death sticks and vape and that's fine, I encourage them as much as I can and help them all a whole lot, lol. The come over and I'll clean there gear, mix up there juice and all that fun stuff. I think it's awesome and am having a great time helping others out :)

I recently converted three during a trip to Zihuatanejo, Mexico. Mexico enacted a smoking ban in restaurants, bars, etc. over a year ago, but you would never know it. Smokers and ashtrays were everywhere, except in occasional high-end restaurants and glitzier hotel lobbies. I'd vape just about everywhere we went to, and it was interesting to see the look on the faces of waiters and busboys who would keep coming by to empty my ashtray but not find any butts or ashes.

In any case, I converted the landlord of one of the condos we stayed at, who was scheduled to go to the New York to have heart surgery and who has no choice but to quite smoking; a restaurant owner whose wife won't let him smoke anywhere near her; and another restaurant owner who has always wanted to quit for the sake of his health and family. Of course, I couldn't stick around to confirm if they followed through, but since they approached me and asked immediately where to get them, I'm fairly confident they placed their orders.

I really have not kept count, but I spread the word as much as I can.

I even stop when I see people standing outside a store/restaurant whatever, especially employees, I will stop and speak, demostrate and give them some cards from favorite suppliers, along with the link to this forum.

Sitting outside the airports, I speak to flight attendents, pilots, other passengers, all of those sitting there captive and pass on the word.

I converted a friend where who then went on to convert folks at the bowling alley...

I spread the word since education and getting more people in our ranks or at least aware of thier options is the only way to go forward on our journey.

I recently sent info to our state representative for him to have when our state legislature reconvenes, just in case. The issue has not been brought up in our Texas legislature YET, but if it is, I want him (a really good guy) to be informed and able to bring other reps over to our side.

I don't think we can spread the word TOO much... so many people still don't know they have an option, and still exist in that hopeless addicted dark world, when if they only knew .....

Keep up the good work on getting the word out !

Wow, I feel like I'm not doing my job. I've only converted 2 for sure but I've handed out literature and answered questions (demonstrations) to more.

that's great, every one you convert is one more life you have changed forever...

Some of us just treat it like a hobby ... I like talking to new people, and this is a very good conversation starter.

keep it up, the two you converted might convert two more each, that's four added to your two for six... then if those four each convert two.... on and on and on....

I love that you help your friends out with cleaning and also encourage them, that's exactly what I do as well. I order all of their stuff for them and let them pay me later. I even let my friend borrow my blu kit for a couple weeks to try it out and see if vaping is right for him. We are literally saving people so it does feel good.
