In my experience, if your going to go one by one and try to introduce them to BTCitcoin and explain how it works in order for them to accept payments of BTC , it would be really a lengthy process and you'll stop doing it before you start so the best suggestion I could make is either by making a mini seminar wherein you invite them altogether and talk about it and even show some of the YouTube videos that well known speakers of community are in and they cover almost everything... And in cases of online local businesses, you could try to send them a support ticket regarding the matter and I've had luck that they answered, "were already reviewing BTCitcoin payments and will consider it for the future" .

I agree it is much better to encourage and advertise Bitcoin to people in a more passive way where we just need to continue our support to Bitcoin my using it as a daily transaction for them to know and see what Bitcoin really is. In this time we don't much need to tell to them to used Bitcoin rather we just need to make an effort to let them see the possibilities and the development a head to Bitcoin.

There are lots of new post, why bother to quote an old post? Please look at the date.

for us to encourage local businesses to accept bitcoin, we should educate them what is cryptocurrencies and what are the possitive opportunities that they may incurged if they adopt the platform of bitcoin.
upon knowing the pros of bitcoin to their businesses, they will understand why cryptocurrencies is the future mode of payment.

It will not work because for businesses to accept BTC, they must seen an active community of bitcoin user in the specific location which in general is not that much. Just by looking at those big merchants that support the whole world but still some of them didn't accepting bitcoin yet.

But you know the legalization of other countries is a big step into recognition. Soon businesses will automatically adapt bitcoin without us encouraging them.
