From Cigars to Continuity: Simon Devlin’s Secrets to Building Customer Loyalty

Um, but then that just, that just changed my world, just all the different pieces of it. And then I just started buying everything I could have him. It was GKIC days back then where it was also piecemeal and I was buying, you know, CDs and DVDs and just consuming it all. And I saw the entire bookshelf full of Dan Kennedy CDs and DVDs. So I was the same way.

I think the biggest thing is cigars are all about flavor and taste. So people think, and this has been a problem in Australia, and when I actually started the cigar business back in 1997, you couldn't buy cigars anywhere. It wasn't part of the culture, whereas it had been more part of the culture in the United States. People just saw it literally as a big cigarette.
