Hey Tracy,
I learned from early on that you can't force someone to be interested in anything. Even the book I'm reading now (The 4 Hour Workweek), mentions that you shouldn't tell people what they want, but instead, .
If your friends and family simply aren't responsive to your offer, maybe it's time for you to find a new target audience. In time, if they truly are interested, they will note your success and
ask how they can get involved.
Hope that makes sense and helps out.
