Hare Krishna dear Devotees, please accept my humble obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
As it says: forbidden thing is sweet
when we are forced to do something we do not like to accept that let that be a golden ring or etc.
our own right is a small free will.
Here You can sometimes feed Your friend with Krishna Prasadam and by tasting higher taste and becoming free from sins Your friend will be able to understand what is correct what is not.
Sins cover our intelligence. The role of intelligence is to see what is right and what is not.
Sometime engage them with Devotional service. for example, request to bring some flowers and then offer them to Krishna (or course if that friend is close to You). or to help You to go to the shop and buy some fruits vegetables then offer them to Krishna. In this way they will unconsciously earn sukriti.
and when sukriti is enough for accepting Krishna Consciousness then they will join.
Your servant,
