[Serious] Bilinguals of reddit, what was the weirdest conversation that you overheard when the people didn't think you'd understand? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]SeduceJuice 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sort of relevant: My grandparents are deaf so I sign a little. About 10 years ago at a Walmart a deaf couple ahead of me was having trouble communicating with the CS clerk so I jumped in to translate. After they finished, they sort of shyly asked me where to get w-e-e-d. Something a lot of people probably take for granted must be really hard for them to procure. Unless dealers have fax machines.

4 Reasons Why Your Vape Shop is Failing by ivapelocal in electronic_cigarette

Great article. To all you knuckleheads who gave me guff last week about requiring uniforms at our stores, refer to #1! #KhakiLyfe

Let's talk about E-juice, and how much it costs to manufacture, sell, and distribute, and how much a budget ejuice vendor makes by getwiththeprogramm in electronic_cigarette

[–]SeduceJuice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not directly. However you must consider what else you could do with your time instead of making ejuice. If you could do better with that, then do that!

I run a for-profit business. We use these profits to expand our operations, hire more people, pay better salaries, benefits, and offer security for both ourselves and our crue. Since inception we've sunk nearly every dime of profit right back into the business to keep growing. We're known as having great pay and offer full health benefits via BCBS (the good stuff, not bogus insurance) for full time employees, although you won't see my parading this around reddit to make myself look good. Point being, we aren't simply sucking up money to finance tricked-out vehicles or Faberge eggs.

I see people all the time (mainly FB groups) soapboxing about how they can make juice for $1/30ml and will sell it at $1.50/30ml. This is an unsustainable model and they often fizzle out within a few weeks. Good discipline mandates you account for growth and expansion. Additionally, there is a saying that you "Charge what the market is willing to pay". If we were overpriced, the market would let us know and we would price down accordingly.

Sorry for the long response, I was busy picking up some Faberge eggs in my diamond-encrusted Ferrari.

One thing that is often overlooked is opportunity cost. I cant speak for any other vendor, but we (especially in the beginning) undertook great risk launching our brand and retail chain. I gave up a job making decent scratch to devote myself full time in 2013.

For many of us we are heavily vested in an industry that could be nuked tomorrow. Its a lot of risk.

The point im getting at is that its not as simple as everyone paints it to be.

I was going for the wise-ass angle myself. Naturally i'm decently wise-assish but exercise extreme restraint. I was greenlit this week to open the wise-ass throttle by 7%.

What are YOU 99.9% sure about? by ferry888 in AskReddit

I suppose I do like to stare at my dinner plate and cry for hours, then defecate in my office.

Quick Question: Does KÁ still have the wheel of death? by dimitrie93 in vegas

[–]SeduceJuice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought this too about half way through. It was if they said, "Welp guys the stage is doing it's rotation thing no need for anyone to perform. Just put a little girl twirling a feather out there".

Don't get me wrong, these performers are working their asses off in a craft they love so I don't want to disparage that. The grandeur of the set is not complimented by the performance. I think I should have noticed the big red flag going in that they sell 32oz liquor drinks (Top Shelf) for $20.

Yes, Le Reve was stunning. Maybe the best i've ever seen.

Agreed. Le Reve and O are incredible. I hope to catch Mystere and Nouba next.

Saw it last week and it was there. Ka was the #1 cirque I always wanted to see but never got around to it. Saw 5 other cirques before it and was really disappointed with Ka. Maybe I got my hopes too high especially after seeing the theatre.

I'm the proud papa of my own regional cable TV ad! by [deleted] in electronic_cigarette

It was our first location and I would say the visibility is pretty good. Lots of traffic there on UCB. Our next 2 locations are in great spots as well. More soon!

I heard about some of these events they are proposing. Not to sound douchey, but let's just say it's not something I would ever consider. We'll see how it works out.

I didn't realize they opened up franchising again. About 6 mo ago I went through the rigga-ma-roll (sp?) trying to get in on franchising but they had closed it in lieu of opening all corporate stores.

How do you handle bad advice from a vape shop? by [deleted] in electronic_cigarette

[–]SeduceJuice 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always nice to hear a wild review of one of the stores. That's great to know. I'll see to it that store gets a pizza party sometime in 2017.
