When there is a demand, there would be a will.
When many online shopping giants starts accepting bitcoin, bitcoin will reach to mass. So, we need to take steps to make online shopping websites to adopt bitcoin payments. This will present bitcoin to many new people.

Just tell/show them how bitcoin works.
Best way would be to show how to recieve payments/send payments.

Try to show amaze them first... buy a cellphone load then tell them what you've used to pay... if they ask how you did that, explain how you got the bitcoin, tell something about the faucets, and that they are now left behind as they don't know bitcoin... Smiley

You could tell them to read or play a game about bitcoin, that should make them entertained.

Or you could show them what you earn from bitcoin, then they maybe will join up.

It was a really nice way Cheesy Surely they will be curious and want to try to earn money with bitcoin. Due to the fact that most people play bitcoin want to earn money.

lol, if you ever buy a cell phone through Bitcoin faucets, I feel bad for you because you've probably wasted a year of your life with something you could've afforded easily with a job. Bitcoin isn't magic free money... It's amazing how many times you have to explain this to people, and I explain that when I'm talking about Bitcoin with people who don't know how it works.

Honestly there are a lot of people who are concerned about me paying for my bitcoins, because it's nothing that you can have that's tangible... When in all reality, it's no more tangible than the money they have in their checking accounts and they can monitor them on their bank statements.

Lol yeah bad explanation could make people get misleading, they could judge bitcoin bad if you tell and show faucet in their first impression . why? It looks bitcoiner = beggars that collecting a cents and absolutely wasted the time.
Try to make them impressed by other way , like tell them bitcoin is best thing to trade than fiat trade forex , bitcoin market opened 7 days a week .
Bitcoin is the best option to invest your money in long or short term because of it's fluctuations etc or something good that make bitcoin image awesome.

The key is that ween need to increase the demand.  There are a number of people who would love to get involved with something like this, but they know nothing about what it is.  We need to eduicate so that we can help push for a stronger demand.  Sitting here exchanging Bitcoin for Bitcoin in our group is not getting it out there any further.

Basically people will be happy with anything because he was interested and wanted to try.
Make him interested in trying bitcoin first if it has been interested for sure they will want to try

Everyone is different, some people like technical stuff, others would rather have things explained to them in plain simple English (or other languages  Tongue ). But I think the most important thing is for you to be genuinely interested in Bitcoin first. If you are then I think finding the best way to explain it to others should come naturally. If you yourself have never cared enough to really learn about it then explaining it to others is going to be impossible.

That's some good advice. Everyone is indeed different and not everyone will understand the technical stuff around bitcoin. It's best to keep it as simple as you can.

If they show that they are interested, they will come back to you and ask you questions as well.

As long as they are interested, you should be okay. If they are not, then it gets harder to explain, don't push it too much though.

If those newbies is all the time at home tell them to do Faucets with just doing some of it he or she can earn 50 cent with just clicking. Also tell them with just doing some online job and bitcointalk with signature campaign that you can win a quite a lot of money with it.

I think the best way to learn them is to explain your process. Meaning how you learned about bitcoin.
For me it was by a giveaway where I participated. Then i started googling it.

I would let them google Bitcoin and let them learn that way, it's the easiest approach.  Grin

Nah, i think it's the worst way to introduce bitcoin to newbies. google will take a bit time to understand what is bitcoin and etc. i think the best way is just talk head to head about bitcoin.
