So I just wanted to go on a little rant and see what you guys thought about some of these shady vape shops out there
So as you might know I have the opportunity to travel the country and go to all sorts of vape shops around the country and I am just confusrd about a couple things
1. High prices
2. No knowledge
3. House juices
4. Testing juices
4. Etc.
So first with these high prices I am confused and I think a change needs to be made and maybe its not so much the shops but the manufacturers but when a customer is willing to order from china and wait 2 or more weeks on the product versus buying it in your shop there is.a serious problem lol a 14 rda should not cost 40 or more in a vape shop when they are both clones!!! Think a little more on the volume side a vape shop is not a get rich quick scheme it should be a place where a revolution is taking place!! Now I own 3 businesses myself and I understand the costs involved but mot the vape shops that I go into the have 3 or more employees 2 of which are just sitting around vaping away or watching tv in the vape lounge?? Looks like there is some cost cutting right there
Second almost all of the shops that I have gone into the people really seem to have no knowledge of what they are selling this is business sales 101 stuff people your employees need to have all the answers and if they dont they need a easy way to find the answer quickly to make the customer happy but when you walk into a shop and ask about something and get an idk or heard from a buddy that it was cool!!! Thats just not right lol sales people should have first hand experience with what they are selling to make the customer have confidence in you and your shop that for when they return they know they will be taken care of the good shops that I have been to know simple things like what this or that is called how it performs and how to use it properly come on people step it up a little and do your research if your going to sell something to some especially if your need to charge those outrageous prices
Third and fourth all of the shops that i have been to make there own juices which is cool because you get to sample a wide variety of different juices but I think these shops need to step it up a bit on there clean work spaces all juice making should be done in a food grade environment!!! I dont want to walk into a shop and see a bunch of open bottles of nic etc that have been getting dust in them all day long we are putting this stuff in our bodies it needs to be as safe as possible the good shops that I have been to have a room dedicated to actually making the juice behind closed doors but of course display juices out in the show room. Brings me to another point whats with these shops using the worlds cheapest tank to let customers test juices in? Its not going to bring out the flavor correctly for the customer to be supremely satisfied and want to buy yoyr entire stock lol I imagine a little expense here is worth a mountian of coustemers. Amd also if your going to have 10,000 test juices out for people to try I dont want to walk up and see a bunch of condensation build up inside the tanks that everyone and there mother and grand mother has produced clean the tanks after every test!! That condensation can be a carrier for harmful things a qu tip and rubbing acholo will go a long way to just clean that tank out really fast
My ideal shop would have wickless drippers set up to test all of the juices just drip a little on hand it to the customer have them do the suck and blow really quick wash and repeat lol that easy
Most of all take pride you shop owners take pride that you are part of a revolution where a smoker can come in and purchase something to help them stop!! You gotta keep in mind they are taking the biggest step in saving there life by just even walking into your shop please dont deny them that by crappy customer service because you know what if you do that they are going to drive right down to the corner store and buy a pack because you didnt make them a believer
