LiveMarket promotions are free so that even the smallest supplier can share information about their tea, teaware, and tea services. We encourage advertisers to post content describing their products and services because Tea Journey’s global audience of tea enthusiasts benefits from knowing pricing, availability, and product details not included in magazine articles. There are no strings, no hidden charges.
Readers welcome and respond to advertising that informs and makes it convenient for them to buy directly from producers and reputable retailers on every continent. Convey your message in the authentic voice of your brand to discover messaging that delivers sales results.

LiveMarket ads appear on the home page, at the foot of every article, and in the MailChimp newsletter announcing each new article.
There are no limits on words and images.
So how does Tea Journey make money giving away free ads?
Relationships are based on value, not price. Our venture is financed by tea-thirsty subscribers in 104 countries. Enhancing their journey in tea is our reason, mission, and our WHY. Readers who pay for content do not object to advertisers promoting quality products. Relevant advertising that educates and makes purchases convenient adds value to our publication.
LiveMarket pays in two ways.
- It brings in cash from sales, offsetting your marketing expense. How much? Vendors in the program offer 500 grams of teas ranging from $17 US Dollars to 70 Indian Rupees, to 70 Euros to 7000 Chinese Yuan ($1000). Marketers who regularly update their LiveMarket promotion and create an effective landing page featuring specialty teas in the $20-$40 range may close ten sales monthly. Appealing images and a compelling brand story are sufficient, but campaigns that feature video are more effective in capturing the attention of the majority of readers who view Tea Journey on mobile devices.
- During the past seven years, Tea Journey has attracted a loyal readership of several thousand paid subscribers with “unlimited access” and about 10x that many MailChimp registered “free” subscribers with limited access (three posts per month). Together they closely resemble the global (English-speaking) tea community. Crafting messages that resonate and drive sales among Tea Journey’s readers suggests those same messages, price points, and selections will scale on social media. A LiveMarket campaign that generates 10% click-throughs, leading to a landing page that converts 50% of motivated buyers, will do brilliantly on Instagram, Facebook, and even Twitter.
