Ask your vendor(s) to give you business cards. If you ever see someone pick up one of those dime store e-cigs tell them to check out ECF (cards are available) and a couple of the vendor cards. Show them your e-cig (mod or not). I did that for one of the 7-11 check out girls. Now she's a vaper too.

Smoke NV is doing the whole industry a favour.

The more people see it, the better they understand it. The more people that try Smoke NV, the more that will look for lower priced alternatives and educating forums.

I disagree. People trying out SmokeNV as their first E-Cig might actually be put off by these money mongers. A starter kit for just ONE battery and 5 carts (and charger obviously) costs anywhere between 60-80 dollars, which is completely ludicrous. I can see many people being put off by these guys (and many others like it) simply because of price and the fact these e-cigs are not very reliable.

Many people I've shown my hardware to often say "oh I tried those but they're so expensive. It's just not worth it, and it really didn't help" to which I reply that they tried a corner store brand with 0 nic that was extremely overpriced, and then I hand them a business card for a reputable vendor.

It's a well known fact that even bad publicity is still good publicity.

In this case I don't think so. People are turned off by the price. Everyone I know that has tried these no longer uses them and went back to analogs due to the fact it cost about the same as vaping these .... kits. I think people are just too lazy to research and find out a little about E-Cigs. They would rather smoke their analogs instead of typing in a URL to get a bit of info and find out the true advantage of vaping. When people at work ask me about E-Cigs I just tell them to look it up online and do some research before buying. They usually say "but they sell them at the corner store" ........ It's a damn lazy ... world we live in.

Yeah, people will probably go back to analogs when they find out it cost the same, so it's our job now to inform them that there's an alternative :)
