Our goals for the coming year:
Increase membership to 2,000 by January 1st, 2015
Hire an architect and begin building in 2015
Incorporate Global Tea Hut in Taiwan so we can offer Taiwanese visas to foreign volunteers
Ways in which Global Tea Hut will continue to improve as we get near our goals:
At 1,000 members, we'll start traveling more to research articles on tea and teaware, and to source new and different organic teas. As an awesome side-effect, this will allow us to connect organic farmers to each other and to you!
At 1,500 members, we'll start translating modern and ancient Chinese and Japanese tea wisdom to English. In many cases, these will be the first translations of major Asian tea texts into English!
Use social media and email to share our videos, our links and membership to Global Tea Hut. Post photos of your tea sessions and GTH envelopes. Spread the word to people who may benefit from membership as much as you do!
Share each month's tea with friends. Show them the newsletter and tell them why you love your subscription. Tell them we need 2,000 members this year to begin construction on the world's best free tea center.
