"And this device gives you ten times you're regular strength, it's great for punching holes in the walls of banks, high security government sites or people really."

"But you could use this technology for general applications and you'd become millionaires possibly even billionaires overnight!"

"But we don't want to be billionaires! We wanna rob banks!"

“Bruh, you could like create a club where people sign up. It’s like a much simpler way to go about it.”

Realistically, government and law enforcement would get irksome about it and try to shut it down. Might as well do everyone, in which case order doesn't matter.

Yeah but the club route lets you get a dozens/hundreds of followers before the cops catch wind.

Said followers can make converting the rest of the world a lot easier

if random people are hearing about this club, law enforcement and such will also hear about it. Even if you kept it a secret, you would need to make them really small so they can be hidden in the city, or you would need to turn them somewhere remote where their size might not matter as much, which would still get you noticed soon.

Best approach is to start turning people in a busy area and get to as many as you can while trying to keep a low profile. The chaos that ensues will be good cover and let you continue your work.

It's also important to make sure everyone spreads out so the city can't just be quarantined or sacrificed to prevent spread. Admittedly, it would be better to start in Europe instead of the U.S. because of population density.
