Every time a Stacker goes shopping, eating out or having a beer with friends, he/she should ask if it is possible to pay with Bitcoin. I have often read that it is not suitable for everyone to fully onboard a merchant with the topic of Bitcoin acceptance because you may be too shy or simply more introverted or simply don't feel like it. But asking a merchant multiple times will certainly lead to interest and the likelihood that he will deal with the topic himself is greater, since his customers express a need.
It's just a drop in the ocean, but everyone certainly has the opportunity to ask the question "do you accept Bitcoin” once or several times a week. This leads, among other things, to Bitcoin appearing in the top search results on Google for example.
I bet @DarthCoinDarthcoin already practices it on living objects. And remember, if a merchant has a further question, just refer him to all his guides ;)
...I always ask, "Do you accept Bitcoin YET?"
You get a very different reaction with the addition of "yet?" 🙃

hehe very nice! Good approach!

And that's why I made my own BTC flyers to hand them to those merchants I went to onboard them. Is nice to give them a paper support to take it at home and study more. Later they will come to you and ask more questions.
I suggest to everybody to make their own flyers, you could start with my flyers as base idea and adapt them, translate them as you wish, for your local merchants. You know better what kind of message to send them.
Here are the flyers I used:

The only mistake @DarthCoin made with those "I DARE YOU" flyers was that he focused too much on the fiat value and had a short-term outlook for holding the flyer (1 year).
One year is not enough time to filter out all the noise. Just imagine the normies/no-coiners holding this flyer in 2022/2023 while TerraLuna and FTX are falling apart and the fiat value of btc drops to $15k (the only metric they care about).
Personally, I would do it differently. But this flyer is a good starting point. Maybe I'll take some inspiration and create my own 🙂

please do it, that flyer was a test I did with some normies. And worked. But I agree it have to be improved

In Munich we have hooligan clubs for the two opposing football clubs Bayern München and 1860 München: Schickaria and Cosa Nostra (now dissolved), both had stickers and always covered the whole city center with them, maybe more Bitcoin stickers should be distributed to the people who help.
Did you thought about adding stickers to downlaod to your library? 1000 Stickers around 100-200€ depends on the quality..
I have full savings in bitcoin so I only accept payment in Bitcoin. When it's my turn to pay I pay it in Fiat

I have translated for this purpose this leaflet into my native language: https://bitcoinforlocalbusiness.com/

It's a commendable initiative to encourage Bitcoin adoption subtly by inquiring about its acceptance at various merchants. Indeed, simple inquiries can spark curiosity and drive interest in the subject. Every effort, no matter how small, contributes to raising awareness and normalizing Bitcoin transactions in everyday settings. And yes, guides and resources can be incredibly helpful for those intrigued and seeking more information!
