I’m sure we’ve all had the experience. Our life is moving along at a predictable pace and, except for a few bumps along the way, things are working quite nicely. Then – surprise! Something major changes.
That’s just happened to me. If you’ve been following my journey over the past year, you know I’ve started a new direct sales venture, Let’s Do Tea, and tried an internet business, that I quickly gave up. The internet business attempt did give me the skills to start this blog, so I’m grateful for that. It’s allowed me to get to know you and you to get to know me. The big “Surprise!” has come from my Let’s Do Tea business.
I thoroughly enjoy sharing the experience of drinking delicious and high quality loose leaf tea with my customers. Many have never had loose leaf teas and didn’t realize how much more flavor tea could have. I was starting to get the routine down and beginning to build a solid customer base.
Then I got the news in early December — Let’s Do Tea will be closing its doors as of December 31, 2009.
Oh, no! I have tea events already scheduled in 2010. I have customers who have fallen in love with loose leaf tea and are already reordering. And, Christmas is coming… Do I have to deal with this now?
Yes, now. And I made the most wonderful discovery — Tealightful Treasures. This direct sales company not only has great loose leaf teas, but many are organic. My customers have been asking for that. We also have “healthy” and delicious scone mixes, made with yogurt rather than calorie-laden cream, and cookie mixes that complement our teas perfectly. Need a beautiful teapot or service? We have that too. Everything you need to create a beautiful and relaxing tea experience.
It’s been a hectic couple of weeks, making the transition and cultural shift. The company has been wonderful at helping me — answering endless questions on the phone and responding to emails. I couldn’t be happier with my new business. I hope you will check it out. Click here to visit my website. I know you’ll find something wonderful to order.
Grab yourself a great cup of tea and visit me often. I’m planning to spend more time here and I’d love the company. Here’s to your health and abundant happiness…
