Free Your Tea
Free Your Tea is a personalized tea subscription that discovers and delivers premium, loose leaf teas.
|
Free Your Tea is developing a platform for managing direct-to-consumer personalized subscription services for any type of product in local, national, and international markets. We use ratings and preferences to help our subscribers find their new favorite teas by tailoring monthly tea shipments to their tastes based on ratings and preferences.
The company currently operates a personalized tea subscription service that discovers and delivers teas tailored to taste through freeyourtea.com

What's Innovative About Their Solution?
We use preference and rating data to help subscribers discover their favorite teas.
We personalize subscriptions so that subscribers enjoy their experience more and remain subscribers longer.
This means that instead of the inefficient current model of most subscription ecommerce companies where they ship products to subscribers and get much of it in return before subscribers cancel, we work with subscribers to make sure before shipping that they will like the product and build long term relationships.
