The Stop Smoking Industry Is Going Nowhere
This post is going to be a little different than any other post up until this point as it is less informational and more observational. Basically, I wanted to take a time out and really look at the stop smoking industry. It’s friggin’ huge! When you think about it, the smoking cessation industry is set up for infinite success. There are tons of different products and services related to quitting smoking out there such as stop smoking aids, stop smoking hypnosis, medication, guides…the list goes on and on. This isn’t the half of it, though. The real money factor is the fact that there will always be smokers who are trying to quit and there will always be new people becoming smokers.
The fact that this industry has an endless cycle of buyers is just mind blowing. I mean, when you step back and begin to think about it, it really is humbling. It’s kind of funny too because you’ve got insanely profitable industries on both sides of the smoking game. On one side you’ve got the drug which makes addiction happen in the first place and keeps people coming back for more and more and more. And on the other side you’ve got products that help those smokers who desperately want to quit their addiction and move on. One industry is obviously ethically better than the other but they are both extremely huge nonetheless. Thinking about the economics behind quitting smoking really is something interesting, I’ll tell ya. Anyway, just some food for thought.
