On the 18th, I will supply the email addresses of the different new agencies that we want the emails to go to.
The plan is to flood the media with Positive stories about how the e-cigarette has helped us quit smoking and better our life. We want to flood them on ONE day. World & National vaping Day which is September 19th. We would like the Subject line to be as consistent throughout the emails so that it shows a unified front.
In a sense, this is a positive peaceful protest.
The hope is to get a couple of news agencies to see that there ARE positives about the ecigs and they are worth looking into as a healthy alternative to smoking.
SAMPLE EMAIL
Subject line: National & World Vaping Day, The E-cig Saved me from inhaling over 4000 chemicals.
Message body: There are approximately 600 ingredients in cigarettes. When burned, they create more than 4,000 chemicals. At least 50 of these chemicals are known to cause cancer, and many are poisonous.The electronic cigarette, on the other hand, has 4 ingredients: propylene glycol and/or vegetable glycerin, food grade flavoring (optional) and nicotine (optional)...all FDA approved ingredients, and none of which have been proven to cause cancer.
It has been INSERT YOUR OWN NUMBERS HERE days since I last had a cigarette. That comes to INSERT YOUR OWN NUMBERS HERE cigarettes that I have NOT smoked and over $INSERT YOUR OWN NUMBERS HERE that I have NOT spent on tobacco cigarettes.
I owe that to electronic cigarettes.
I want to get the word out to every news organization and ask that you not be mislead by the advocates of big tobacco and big pharmacy who claim that e-cigarettes are bad for you:
CIGARETTES ARE MUCH MORE HARMFUL!
The patches, gum and drugs have a dismal failure rate. Listen to the “man on the street” and you will find there are more of us that have quit smoking tobacco by using e-cigarettes than you think; we number in the hundreds of thousands, if not millions. And that number grows every day.
....then continue on with a short paragraph about your personal journey.
Thank you for taking the time to read my email.
Sincerely,
YOUR NAME HERE
