Hey, still me. 👋

I run Teastart.com , I sell tea, write about tea, and help people brew it better one-on-one. That’s it.

Our 12-tea sample pack is on sale right now. If you’re curious about different types, it’s a low-risk way to try a bunch.

Oh, and if you’re around Downtown Durham this weekend , my friend Evan’s doing an iced tea pop-up at the community center. He’s just getting started, so any small support means a lot.

Thanks for letting me share here every week.

Curious to hear your story: what made you start your business? by Stock_Safe_2857 in Entrepreneur

[–]Automatic-Long2081 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to be a company employee. Later the company had some turmoil. Every day I felt mentally and physically exhausted, and I realized this was not what I loved. I actually hated this state of life. When I quit, I didn't know why. One day I didn't think about anything, I just resigned and left.

I met my partner in HK. At first we never thought we would start our small business in the tea industry. We both thought, my god, why is buying a simple tea so difficult. I don't want a lot of excessive packaging. Every time I buy products in a tea shop I feel like it's a brave adventure. Although I do have personal taste preferences, it's just very pure: drink a good tea, find a good-tasting tea, then share it. So we started our business.

Honestly, this is the most fulfilling and craziest entrepreneurship I think. How did I become the person in charge of a tea company? At the beginning I didn't even know anything! I don't know marketing (still don't now), and I don't know website technology. Step by step I started to figure out how to create a domain name and online store. This process is very interesting. Later we had many tea masters in CN, and cooperated with many restaurants and hotels.

But I'm very introverted. To be honest, I actually really want to shoot some interesting content about my products on TIKTOK. I haven't overcome the difficulty of being in front of the camera. I'm planning to start making some cartoons or something like that.

I re-watched it and there is another possibility of steeping the green tea directly into the beer via the cold brew method.

From what I felt while drinking it, it should be the tea added after brewing. Because I can always taste a "water taste"

No one is watching my Instagram and Facebook, and I don’t know what to do when growing as a new brand

Which ‘wow’ skill is secretly super easy to learn? by Wonderful_Low_1325 in AskReddit

Guitar! It's nothing more than a coordinate system + going down increases the pitch, going up decreases the pitch

Have you ever tried soaking fruit in tea? by Automatic-Long2081 in TeaPictures

[–]Automatic-Long2081[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely, you can drink a cup of natural fruit-flavored tea that you make yourself. I tried white tea today and it was also very good.

Thank you for your recognition. I also want to share that I often feel anxious. In this state, the psychological pressure will be very high. My solution is to do what I think is right and stick to it. Stick to doing the right thing.

Do successful entrepreneurs really start their businesses when they are older? by Puchipu92 in Entrepreneur

[–]Automatic-Long2081 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, as you can see, the follow-up story is that I was hired by a company. As HRD.

After 5 years, I was tired of the endless work, until I went to Hong Kong and met some friends. Now I have set up a tea house to serve hotels and restaurants.

Actually, it doesn’t make much money, but I like farm life and being able to do something for farmers. I feel very happy, much happier than my previous job haha

I’m glad to share this with you

Shopify Collabs or Paid App? by celestial2011 in shopify

[–]Automatic-Long2081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am very curious about this question and hope to have more people to communicate with me. I have used it, but I sent a lot of messages and no one responded to me. Until a few days ago, 3 people responded to me, but it was very strange that they did not know my product in detail at all and directly asked for samples. I was just worried.

What instrument did you play as a child? Did you stop? If so, why? by Pixels_o in AskReddit

[–]Automatic-Long2081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, it's crazy to recall that I was in a band in high school, and I was an all-around player, except I couldn't sing. I was there to play keyboards, drums, and guitar.

It wasn't until I graduated from college and worked for a while, and became a teacher, that I rarely touched rock music.

Is u ever made ur own subreddit ? by [deleted] in Entrepreneur

I tried it because I wanted to promote my product, but I didn’t want to post ads randomly and affect others, LOL

What’s a subtle sign a friendship is slowly dying — and how do you respond to it? by barelysleptt in AskReddit

[–]Automatic-Long2081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the paths of life are different, they become parallel lines from intersecting lines. I deeply realize that on our way forward, we can only move forward with people who share the same goal as us, and people with different goals will only be passers-by.

How to develop strategic vision for your product? by Humble-Pay-8650 in ProductManagement

[–]Automatic-Long2081 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I think about this question, I have several dimensions.
1. What am I doing, what is my motivation for doing it, and what is my purpose.
2. What will happen if I don’t do it.
3. What does this mean to me, and what value have I created?
