QUITTING DIPPING IS HARD. WE MAKE IT DOABLE.

This is both an honor and a responsibility. Your role in the BaccOff program is as critical as the chewer's desire to kick the addiction.

As the partner you will be responsible for: Mixing BaccOff with their current brand of smokeless tobacco, keeping the BaccOff blend always available, keeping the blending rate confidential, and listening to and encouraging the chewer.

During the Can-Do program, you will be blending BaccOff with smokeless tobacco in varying proportions. It is extremely important the chewer never knows the percentage of the blend. Never underestimate the power of the mind and its ability to influence. If the chewer thinks he is being deprived of nicotine too early, he may become unnecessarily anxious.

Tip:When he asks how he's doing, praise him for his progress.

"Break the nicotine addiction and become tobacco free!" The chewer's habit has developed over many years and the Can-Do program will gradually reduce the tobacco related anxieties associated with nicotine addiction. The slow release method requires the chewer to constantly adjust to a changing nicotine level and a slightly different taste. The first several blends will get him used to the subtle differences between BaccOff and tobacco.

Tip: Each time you change blends it will take a few days for the chewer to adjust. Keep encouraging!

Most people will know right away they are chewing something other than their regular brand and sometimes feel a little discomfort for a few days after every blend change. These are the mental and physical effects that nicotine has on the body. After a few days, with your encouragement, their attitude will change and you will hear "I can do this because the blend is actually pretty good and I feel a lot better." Becoming free of tobacco is a process of eliminating the physical effects of nicotine and dealing with the strong desire to have something between the cheek and gum.

Don't be surprised if the chewer consumes more of the BaccOff blend than tobacco. Subconsciously, he'll try to obtain the same amount of nicotine from the blend that their tobacco was once giving them. This is to be expected and is no cause for concern. With the first several blends the chewer may be able to achieve the same nicotine level as before, but this will not work for long. As the BaccOff level percentage in the blend increases, it will become impossible to obtain the previous nicotine level.

Once you begin the program, never let the chewer run out of blend. You must anticipate his usage and do whatever it takes to keep him supplied. If he runs out, he will return to his old brand of smokeless tobacco and the effort will be wasted.

Begin week one by blending 10% BaccOff with 90% tobacco. In week two, blend 20% BaccOff and 80% tobacco. In week three, blend 30% BaccOff and 70% tobacco. Increase each week's blend ratio another 10% until the chewer is using 100% BaccOff.

Tip: Allow at least one week between blend changes.

It is important that the blended mix be placed in BaccOff cans. Buy at least a week's supply of BaccOff and a week's supply of tobacco from the outset. Store the BaccOff that you empty from the cans in an airtight container for later blending. This will give you the empty cans you need for the blend at startu.

Mixing the blend: Place the desired amount of tobacco and BaccOff in a container and stir until thoroughly mixed. Pour mixture into empty BaccOff cans and return to the shelf.

Storing the blend: The shelf is a place where you and the chewer have mutually agreed to store the blended cans and return the empty cans. Keep in mind that the chewer should never know when you switch to a new blend. You must stack the cans in a way that he will use up the first blended mix before starting the next blend.

Once you reach the 100% blend level, you should continue using the shelf for one to two months even though the "blend" is now 100% BaccOff. If the chewer feels like he's still using a blend, let him. It will be great encouragement to find he's been at least a month without nicotine.

Tip: Congratulate yourself! You have helped change a life for the better.

From this point forward your mixing job is over and you should simply be an encourager. The chewer can continue to use BaccOff as desired since it is non-addictive and his use will seek a reasonable level.

If you notice abnormal tension and anxiety several days after starting a new blend, you may choose to slightly increase the tobacco for a week. It's better to extend the program and eventually achieve success, rather than rebellion and a return to tobacco.
