Pay it forward?

[brialeeanna20]

OK i got an idea but want some ideas:

i have a mod and 2 more on the way so i dont use my reg batteries anymore and chargers! so what i thought about doing was making about 6 starter kits out of spare parts i have

1 auto battery
1 manual battery
1 atty
2-3 blank carts
1 bottle of juice
a charger
and an info page


i was going to hand them out to people i know that smoke and tell them to try it for a few days to see if they like it then they can eather give it back or use it tell they can buy a kit and get it shiped to them

1. what i need to know is how long i should tell them to try it out for befor they need to order there own or give the loner kit back if it is not for them.

2. Would it be better to just give them the web address to this fourm or some card of suppliers i have personaly delt with?

3. I dont want to make money on this but what do you think of on bottom of info page telling them it would be fine if they put say $5 back into bag so i can replace filters and juce for next person? and if so how do i word it?

i am only doing this becouse i love this product and think it works!!
I know i run the rick of not getting kits back at all or having parts broken. but i am ok with that

i would love to hear what you all think.

this is a great idea .... saves people trying to stick their lips around mine (oo er) ....

i think on loan for a week would be enough to decide if it was going to work .... i took a week for my first e cig to die but i knew this was the way to go ... still going 7 months later

Maybe instead of asking them for money you could just drop the suggestion to replace the atty, cart and juice when they order, and include it when they send the kit back.

that is an idea for the ones that do order

I wouldn't ask for anything. only loan to people who express an intrest,but tell them about the "pay it forward "thing. if they do order you'll have another source should you come up short one day.You don't want to come off seeming evangelical by targeting friends just because they smoke IMHO.

I dont think asking for 5 dollars to cover "some" of your cost for letting them try is asking too much. It sure beats them spending the "whole amount" and then finding out its not for them. If it is for them, then they have someone with knowledge to go to for advice and not someone trying to make a buck.
As far as the trial period a week is sufficient amount of time.

Giving this site would be plenty, a lot of info here. But, I would suggest waiting to see if they are interested in purchasing there own before giving out to much info,could only confuse some people more.

Just my two cents

thank you bold

my goal is to get as many people to try e-cigs as i can!! if i did not find a way to restock the supplies (juice and carts) than after my supply is gone i would not be able to hand out any more loner kits

howdy bria:
I wonder is you could claim them on your taxes as donations. I was thinking of making up a few kits, and donating to the Senoir Citizens Center. The oldies may even get their younger family members interested in e-cigs.

 

[brialeeanna20]

hey jim how dose you wife like that 510 kit you won at party or did you steal it from her lol

 

[Jim Davis]

Actually, I bought my own 510 kit. She totally quit everything a month or so ago, so I added the parts to my kit. Now she's smoke free *and* vape free, but once in a great while, she'll take a quick hit on my 0 nic juice. But one hit on the zero every couple of weeks? Not me.

Not to change the subject, but you took a picture of me blowing a vapor cloud from my 'ol 4081 at the get together. Did that pic turn out? I was thinking of something like that for an avatar.

Thanks Bria! I'll play with it, and work in in somehow.

cool glade to help

 

[brialeeanna20]

i realy do want ideas??? help please

 

[Jim Davis]

If this is for people you know, invite them over for a demonstration. Let them try. You'll be right there to give them tips and instructions. If they like it, I'd say a week of testing should be enough to see if they like it or not. Give them a choice. Donate the $$ for the juice & carts or order extra, and replace yours.

If they order, and the order takes time, you may decide to extend the loan until their order hits the door.
