.... with it being the New Year we would be inundated with new members ??? Perhaps later in the month when the patches fall off? Or when the wee kit bought for their Christmas starts to go wrong?If this is you, come on in, don't be shy  I'm sure there have been many thousands that have bought their first cig-a-like from the supermarkets since Xmas & the New Year. However, not many will go back home and search the internet for information, and if they do they'll probably end up on a Vype or NJoy site and think that's all there is. If only we could come up with a way of slipping a business card (or similar) into their initial purchase with our forum address. The following comes up on Google when you search for AAEC... 'A friendly, unaffiliated UK e-cig forum to help you get started or upgrade. Plus reviews/discount codes plus so much more about e-cigarettes & vaping.'
Which I think is a great description and if we could only get it in front of them, a lot would research further. Advertising... I think most of us hate it... but it works. This is a free forum for us (apart from Chrissie, bless her) ... so how do we advertise apart from word of mouth, which will take time to grow. |

I looked in to leaflet drops and although the leaflets are quite chep to get printed, the cost of delivery kills it.
A cheaper alternative that I haven't looked in to yet would be what would be the cost of a television advertisement on prime time tv.
Would certainly reach more viewers. Not sure if it would be allowed etc as haven't researched it yet.

Well today I was outside vaping at work when our director of primary care walked past. "Are you still smoking? It's so bad for you?!". I showed her my ecig, told her I hadn't smoked for 7 months. Her response???
" You go girl!!"
