And to think I nearly didn’t go!
Totally exhilarating, totally nerve wracking & totally worth it!
The team found me through my social media page, the email came in on a Friday night, would I like to join them live the next morning.
I genuinely felt pretty burnout off the back of doing a crowdfunding campaign to launch our clarity herbal tea blend and I almost said, no thanks, I’m too tired to travel to London, work on a Saturday and for what? A 3 second clip on TV!
But decided, I should give it a try, then the nerves set in!
What actually happened was a live tea tasting segment, a chance to share my story and the story of the brand and talk all about my recent crowdfunding campaign.
The team were so lovely and made me feel so welcome.
But the bit I DID NOT expect was that people were actually watching or that they might want to order my tea blends as a result.
Which as I write this sounds pretty daft really.
But that 7 minute segment gave me 2115 visitors to the website, a 359% increase in sales for the day, hundreds of new followers and a boost of confidence that was very welcomed. I couldn’t believe it.
But the best bit some of those customers who purchased came back time and time again and many of them left amazing reviews and subscribed to my herbal tea blends.
So I’m so grateful for the opportunity and it taught me, that’s it’s always worth trying something new, even when you feel exhausted, cos it just might have a great impact.
Love to you all 💕
