I know Mharris a little while back has been asking whether or not people would care or want to keep the original 1x strength version 15mcg nol or move the product to a standard 2x strength version 30mcg nol. I know it will make mixing easier when using pheromones like Anone with the 15mcg version, but a lot of users use higher doses anyway. What do you all think?
I could move it to 1.5x, too.
Here’s the thing, for those of you familiar with stick shifting.
Let’s say you have 6 gears, and a 200hp engine.
2x, it’s like using getting twice the engine (400hp), but half the gears (3).
1.5, it’s like getting 50% more engine (300hp), and, umm… you know, 4.5 gears. So the metaphor doesn’t totally fall apart, let’s call it a 4 gear automatic with an overdrive button. 
Right now, with Instant Openness 1X the way it is, it seems many users experience an IO sweet spot around 3 sprays (45mcg total).
1.5x seems like a better step if you plan to ramp up the Nol content and other things. that way 2 sprays=45mcg pheromone content.
Can you add in a 1.5x option please Mharris?
Pretty soon there won’t be any product lines, just collections of mones that you’ll order to get your desired effect, all custom mixed and ready to go.
Did you see this in your pheromone ball? 
if there is a significant connection between pheromones and blood types i’d expect to be able to order custom mixes not just for my blood type but for the blood types of the women i’m after.
are we able to break down personalities by blood type yet?
custom blood type mones sound very exspensive$$$.
Supposedly, it doesn’t work out well for the Japanese.
However, I’ve been informally asking people their blood types for years now before I even knew about the Japanese fascination with b types, and I do see basic patterns.
Os being more blatant, As more reserved. Os often dominate As. As are usually more reliable, but Os have more behavior flexibility and sometimes more personality than As. Os seem to embrace intensity well, whereas As shy away from intensity. That kind of thing.
The one thing I don’t run into a lot are Bs and ABs.
I don’t see why it’d be much more expensive than it is now.
The most expensive aspect to making cosmetic related products applies to all pheromone products. The big issue is that when you do under 25k units of any cosmetic-related SKU, your costs soar. Most of the behind the scenes industry is set up for runs of 25,000 + per product.
This just isn’t going to happen while the pheromone industry is still in it’s “cottage” type phase. The biggest retail outlets we’ve dealt with, most in direct marketing, have sold something like 6k units per year of a single product.
More than some people would expect, but still no anywhere near the numbers of a typical “cosmetic” product. (cosmetics are LEGALLY defined as anything which increases your attractiveness)
We’ve already dealt with the cost inefficiencies and manufacturing issues to some extent.
The way we currently have things setup is very flexible – on the lines of “Just in Time” manufacturing you have in Japan.
Most of what you order on our website is no more than a few days old. It’s like ordering a Dell computer – it’s fresh.
When you call our 800 #, you can actually customize products for not much more money than you see on our website.
i guess when I think of customizing mones for each blood type that sounds like a manufacturer would lose money if they didn’t jack up the price abit since they had to make several different variations instead of just one.
Right, there are higher manufacturing and storage costs.
I think for most manufacturers, this would be a real issue.
But because of the Japanese inspired JIT system we’ve put in place, it’s not a major issue for us. We can literally turn on a dime, change direction in very little time, and come out with new product variations very quickly and without much additional cost to the consumer.
The thing that still costs us a fortune is research and development.
After having used IO for a few weeks I think the dosage should be moved to 22.5mcg per spray since it generally works best at 2+ sprays in my opinion.
Still experimenting here, but I have noticed “good conversation” (someone else’s words) when I was using a 2-spray IO (regular) application. Was in a restaurant environment. I have been trying a single spray when I’m in a more one-one-one situation (in a smaller sized environment/room) and I think it’s doing okay there, but not enough testing yet.
Have been aiming to apply IO more to wrists and lower part of body to try to influence others more than influence myself. Have also been wearing IShine at same time (more on neck/upper body area. 1-2 sprays). Occasionally work some IFM in there too (back of neck) and I’m starting to suspect that IFM is “really good stuff!” More on that later (and probably in another thread…).
when i go out and I know I will be around in a larger atmosphere..I do two sprays to each side of the top of my head and 1 spray to the back of my hand and rub them together(IO). IS i spray one to the front of my neck, 1 to the top of my head and 1 spray to my face usually..I know that I will run out of IS before anything else because I love the stuff so much. I try to only use IFM on dates and one on one situations with women, because IFM causes me to mello out.
Okay trouble makers! I’m in need of some GOOD advice prior to ordering …
IFM - Check!
A314 - Check!
IS - Check!
Now!
IO 1X or 2X … what’s the verdict and why?
IO or IH … why?
And while you’re here … TUTH or Ammunition?
Thankya! Thankya very much! :o
IO 2x…after using IO 1x..I can say 2x would work better..i use 3 sprays of 1x and get great results. 2x strength would be nicer to have.
A314, IO, IS, IFM are the best ones to get. I’d save IH and Ammunition for last. I use TUTH, but it may be the Androstenone experiement 11 or so sets left may work better because they are all tweaked. I know Anone T2 works well.
Ammunition would be if you didn’t like to mix much..its simple and smells good with basic ratios of the three main pheros.
I personally use A314, IO, IS regularly and add in IFM or TUTH depending on the occasion or date. IH, which I just got recently should help with building an intimate history with one another much faster…since it brings out deep conversations and often hidden secrets about the other person..bringing the two of you closer. Works well after you have attracted a woman and are in the comfort/get to know each other stage(IH).
Gonna depend on your age and aims, etc. but I’d tend toward IO 1x until I got the hang of it. I’ve been using the 1x (1 to 2 sprays) and I’m pretty sure it’s why I couldn’t get a couple of guys to shut up one day (!) and why at one of my lunch dates we had what one woman called “some good conversation” between all of us. 2x may be 2 much…
I’d also lean toward Ammunition as a good basic all-in-one spray and go product. TUTH may be a bit heavy so to speak. Depends on your experiences with -none. But that’s me.
IShine, a314, and IFM are all darned good choices IMO. IH is something I might leave till later. Wish it came in smaller “samplers.”
I think the sampler idea is a darn good one! Like 10mL spray bottles.
Just bought 2x strength version of IO last night along with abunch of other products. this way I can use just a couple of sprays and get the same effect of using 4 sprays of 1x strength.
That makes sense … thanks!
I didn’t see a 2X strength version of IO.
