 until there's an easy way to do accounting and inventory with Bitcoin sales AND substantial demand for that payment type, there's really no orange pilling a business without just orange pilling the owner/decision maker.

thus, solo entrepreneurs, small businesses and just friends are the reachable fruit. 

 I appreciate you taking the time to share this. Thank you! 

 I found most business owners don’t want to think about purchasing power, they just want to focus on their business and expansion.  Demonstrating how #bitcoin protects long-term purchasing power helps them down the #orangepill path.  The below post is an owner that I brought in and his value increase in local(¥) and USD terms, sufficiently convincing for any business

 Thank you for sharing! 

 @bitcoin.rocks has some good resources (and a free business kit) here: https://bitcoin.rocks/business 

 Awesome resource! I’m going to check this out. Thank you! 

 not yet, though I do ask every business that I buy something from if they accept Bitcoin, even though I know the answer is no. Usually it ends there but every so often the person will ask a few questions and they seem interested in learning more 

 That’s a good way to plant Bitcoin seeds. Show that there’s a demand. Thank you! 

 - Use it yourself with the businesses you may be involved with**
- Buy local (as apposed to multinational corps) where possible and ask if they accept Bitcoin - but expect them to say no - purpose is just to show them demand. Smaller owner/operator businesses who feel the pain of inflation will take more interest (e.g. taxi drivers).

** If you want to orange pill your place of work (and you are not a director) be prepared for a long slog of looking for the opportunity. To be honest it’s probably easier to join a Bitcoin first business although satisfying when you make some inroads :-)

To be honest, in the west there is still not enough “pain” yet and people seem happy to pay tax by inflation 🤷‍♀️

Purple-pilling, is even harder though! People care even less about being “uncancellable” (proper word for that?!). 

 Thank you for your insight. I appreciate your time! 

 Let us know how it goes :-) 

 I definitely will. My barber and then a local zipline business will be my first attempts!
