Looking for new customers

Been dealing for a couple years now, at times its been fast, right now its down to personal consumption and a friend or two.

Really been looking for a way to move more as my new grow op is in the works so I can have the people set up for when I eventually can supplant my supply from my dealer to my own garden and cut out that cost.

Problem is, even now, I don't have enough channels to move the stuff. I can get all I want, and would like to get those relationships made now so they are there when its primetime harvesting.

I've been through the stage of selling small quantities to friends, or high school and college kids in town, but that gets old, gets you caught, and I've moved on.

I don't live in a medical state, and I have a full time job. What I'd be looking for are the older more professional or at least adult customers to buy a larger quantity at once and not be sketchy in the process.

How do I meet these people? I don't work in a large office or have any connections to anyone in those sort of working environments so I don't have an in there. What can a guy do to find people who are on the other side of the fence where they have trouble finding it and I have as much as I can move.

The only prospect I've had is a neighbor of mine (right thru the backyard) was a elementary school teacher of mine who I have found out smokes pot. Have never spoken about it, or even know the guy that well, but thought if anyone, he would be the prime example of what I'm looking for, but how do I make that connection?

I'm 21, was a student of his waaay back, and now his neighbor. How do you make that first move to let them know your cool and not only don't care they smoke but want to hook them up.

Lot of words, but in dire need of help to get some money flowing to get this grow op the cash flow it needs to get it up and running.

Thank you in advance for any and all help, opinions, or experience.

stop being anti-social and go ask people if they want to smoke with you, pretty simple man. Once you befriend them with your high grade green, small talk a bit on how you have this awesome connect. I also live in a non-legal state and pretty much EVERYONE smoke pot man, even the old people. It's all about being social.

As far as your old teacher, go over to his house with a bowl pack and say, hey man wanna smoke? pretty ez

you need to find a DEALER..not a few people who want a quarter now and then..no one needs to know you grow..you need one person and one person only to buy your bud from you,and only get it when you call THEM..NOT THEM PESTERING YOU!..money upfront..samuel clemons(mark twain) said "two men can keep a secret,if one of them is dead"..good luck.

Haha funny enough, just started watching that about a month or two ago. We are into season 3 and it actually has given me inspiration to do more. I used to make some nice money, now in sitting on 2oz for 3 weeks... I have an unlimited supply and hopefully can at least partially supplant some of that need with my crop. I agree I would want to find a dealer, but have had trouble finding the right guy. Never been much of a social smoker in town so that kinda hurts my networking. But the few ones I've dealt with never can move enoufh bc they're dealing small. I'm got to find someone who does what I've done and take that next step. Just have no clue what else to do to make that happen. Thought maybe another toker (rather than dealer) such as my neighbor could at least help my cause for the time being. Any advice on how to get in with some of the older crowd like him or how to get that guy that's gonna deal and move for me.

Thanks for the help already guys. This all sounds like a whole bunch of philosophy on my part but who better to ask than my fellow RIUers.

Reading your post again Rory, that is exactly what I need and what I've been looking for. Now if I could just find that then I'm golden.

Well, when you get over your little laugh, consider that he speaks for many, many people in non medical states, people who want to connect but can't because of the draconian legal climate.

Some sound advice with concrete steps would help a lot of people out, might seem simple baby steps to you... but wasn't growing a bitch at first, too?

What. It was funny. ;) yeah I realize that. As I myself live in a non. ;) Growing wasn't a bitch for me at first. Had my Father there helping when I 1st started 15 yrs ago. And I know what you mean. Reaching out to the "others", so to speak. How do you think I feel getting ready to open a bank. lol Tripping balls. Everything should go smoothly. Doesn't seem like baby steps at all honestly. ;)

seems simple to me, you said you can get as much as you want/have a good supply right? so grow some grade A herb and go show it to who ever you currently get your stuff from (dont tell them you grew it) and offer it to them at a better price than whatever they currently pay (shouldnt be a hard sell if your in a non-med state). if youre saying they just dont move enough volume, ask to meet whoever they are buying from and offer your shit to the next dude up the ladder, make an offer too good to refuse but dont sell your self super short.

That's been my goal all along. If I can get my volume up to even come close to meeting my current guy's need I could just turn to him and sell back to him and hopefully grow that into more and more.

However, I was hoping to build a few other relationships now while I'm still buying so I can begin selling my harvest to those customers (most likely for a little more than my guy) without my current costs, until I have enough volume to make it where I have too much for thiose customers and would begin selling back to my guy.

Still in the room construction stage of my new op, but hopefully with some of RIU's support, and my own efforts I can build up a base before I really get cranking.


Thank you for your help!

Go to the bar bro...everyone has one everywhere....and people at bars tend to smoke/do drugs other then just alcohol;) Not to mention a drunk person is far easier to approach and get into the convo...Also the way you dress tends to be a big statement...I couldnt tell you how many people come up to me in the summer when im in festy clothing asking for shit right at the gas station and wanting to exchange numbers just based on look alone...grow out sum dreads and you will for sure be asked/find connections rather quickly...Also if you got the balls, festy hop that bitch with pounds hidden and sling that shit on the lot..you can make kill if you do it right, and you dont really have to have a clientel just a voicebox to tell em all I got dope in my bag for xx amount of money

I'm saying if he's posting online askin for customers he probably isn't smart enough to be in this business. And for the people posting 5000 plant grows on a public forum, well they need to re evaluate their situations too because that's serious jail time rite there medical state or not
