MarkTen Marketing and Product are Exceptional!

[charylec]

After having a really bad experience with VaperXS/Sinless Vaper I happen to receive an offer from MarkTen.

I received a coupon for a starter e-cigarette (Value =10.00) cost of the e-cigarette, 10.00. I used the coupon at my local Circle K, cost to me..truly FREE! Then, I received another coupon for 10.00 of cartridges for the e-cigarette, redeemed at my local Circle K. cost to me..again truly FREE!


Now, here is a company that knows how to generate repeat business. I love their e-cigarette! It has a bit of a vanilla flavor to it. I will definitely be using this product for my choice in an electronic cigarette!

Do you happen to work for MarkTen?

MarkTen is owned by Altria...That says it all for me. But to each their own.

 

[zanedog]

I'm not familiar with Altria, whats the scoop?

Personally, I avoid any and all so called free offers.

Learned long ago there is no such thing as a free lunch.

Altria is Philip Morris USA. They ARE Big tobacco. I will not give them any more of my money, nor would I put anything they make into my body ever again.

No, I do not work for MarkTen. Just sharing my experience. I have owned businesses before and I feel the way they are handling their branding and initial introduction to the market is exceptional. Too many scam businesses out there trying to get a piece of this new market. It is very difficult to weed through them all. People will often express their dislike of of a product or company, and rarely remember to praise the companies that are great!

As far as being owned by Altria, I believe that is also Phillip Morris...

The maker of my brand of traditional cigarette, Marlboro. They really know how to treat their customers. I have smoked their product for many years and out of all the products that I use, no company has ever given me the many things I have received from Marlboro. I have products from their first "miles" promotion (A Sevyelor canoe). All my luggage and backpacks are from Marlboro. I got to experience the Phoenix International Raceway with a private group. Fully garbed as a race car driver I got to ride car around the track and drift in a high performance car, they fed me, and also sent me home with a party pack full of items including a Swiss Army watch. I receive products from them all the time. They never miss my birthday and always send me a gift. I've gotten free music downloads, introductions to new music, new electronic products and more!

Tell me this, What products to you regularly use that send you gifts, offer you the chance to win exciting vacations..including exclusive Montana Ranch experiences?

Truly and honestly..I am new to the concept of vaping and I have been slow to convert. Why?

Thanks for asking...Because Phillip Morris (Marlboro) has treated me well over the years! Yea, I may end up with cancer or in need of an iron lung..but hey! You can get cancer from things other than smoking..and we are all going to die at some point. And, only time will tell the true effects of vaping. So, enjoy life and the choices you make. And, when it comes to our capitalistic society, I like to choose companies that not only choose to give back to me, but choose to give back to the community. Check out what Marlboro has been doing for the environment. They have Teams that go to various outdoor locations and clean/improve the environment.

So, if MarkTen is affiliated with Phillip Morris/Marlboro. It will be my first choice in an e-cigarette! Thanks for making that connection for me, it helps in choosing what e-cigarette I will vape!

Tobacco company never gifted me nothing, why u get so much stuff?

 

[maybeshewill]

Marloboro cigarettes, proud sponsor of the Phoenix International Raceway : Cause an event just isn't an event if you're not coughing and wheezing!

 

[zanedog]

Charylec, I think a more fitting handle for you would be The Marlboro Man, perhaps you should contact admin and see if that name is taken yet.

Tell me how to get in on the free stuff, i'm interested.

 

[djsvapour]

Let me guess. A tobacco company ecig... now, where does this normally lead?

Oh, yes... an expensive disposable or an equally expensive cartomizer/refill system.

my mark? ZERO out of TEN.

Personally, I have no gripe with big Tobacco. I do however have a gripe with people being ripped off.

All that stuff comes from collecting the tickets from inside the empty packs. The more you smoke, the more "free" stuff, and the more you spend to get the free stuff. Yes, brilliant marketing indeed. I'm glad it's working for you OP. I'll stick with my local vape shop and favorite eliquid vendors online with no agenda, that give valued customers good pricing and offer discounts and sales.

If I want a canoe, I'll buy one with the crazy $$$ I'm saving on my health costs and by vaping vs. smoking.

So where is the sign up form to get payed by BT to create fake forum accounts and tout their crappy products like it's the second coming?

This seems pretty clearly to be a payed shill getting some bogus reviews out there to pad google search results...


Smells like dirty marketing to me, even the OP's wording reads like a fake google review trying to capture a few key words...

 

[zanedog]

US Surgeon General C Everett Koop stated on national television in 1990 that tobacco radiation is probably responsible for 90% of tobacco-related cancer. Dr RT Ravenholt, former director of World Health Surveys at the Centers for Disease Control, has stated that "Americans are exposed to far more radiation from tobacco smoke than from any other source.

Are any of the prizes a trip to the Mayo clinic?

hahaha! Thanks for the handle! However, if I could change it..it would have to be The Marlboro (Wo)Man! hahaha!
Just check out their website and register, play the games, explore the site, upload some pics..it's all fun.

Really?

We have people on this forum who are terminally ill because of smoking.

and you are linking to cigarette companies? it might be "legal" on the forum, but it is in exceptionally bad taste.

 

[jameth]

Yea....

Linking out to mboro....

This is a perfect example of drive by marketing spam, has all the hallmarks, especially now with links...


Clicking on that link will fill their analytics with data on how many people came from this site...

 

[zanedog]

You apparently don't have to be smart to be a paid shill

I have not been paid to post the comments in this forum. I am simply sharing my experience!
Just giving people options of the items out there.

If the vaping community is going to be harsh and critical of a product SIMPLY because they are being produced by a tobacco company..you could be missing out on on an exceptional company that provides a quality product and service and VALUES their customers!

And..regarding health risks..well...time will only tell what conditions and side effects are produced after long term effects of vaping. It is still to be determined. So, don't be fooled into thinking the vaping products are completely safe! Remember saccharine? Oh yea, that was on the market a looooong time before they realized it causes cancer. And, it is still being used in products today..not to mention it's replacement aspartame? The FDA is really good about pushing a product out there and then discovering what truly happens over time!

The information was requested by a poster. The link provided as a convience..anyone with a brain could goggle and get to the website.


Several of the people in this forum are harsh, especially to a newbie! Been on the internet for 25 years and I remember when forums were nothing but a bunch of .......s sitting at their computer screen waiting to attack everybody for their comments.

As such I am already considering not returning to this forum and announcing to anyone and everyone my experience here!

Thank you for the bashing!
