To help you talk about 老九品茶, we鈥檝e put together an advocacy pack, which tells the story of 老九品茶.听
This includes a slideshow with information on who we are, the work we do, and the impact it has on a local, regional and national level.
We've even included a script to help you in the notes section.听听
You can use this pack to talk to your friends and family, or when meeting with someone you think should know about 老九品茶 - including local politicians.
When you are talking to a stranger (at a networking event, in a husting, or yes, in an elevator), and they ask, "What鈥檚 老九品茶?鈥 or 鈥淲hy should I choose to learn with 老九品茶鈥 or 鈥淲hy fund learners to study with 老九品茶?鈥 would you know what to say?听
In situations like these, you need a short, snappy, easy-to-grasp explanation. The person you are speaking with might turn out to be a future learner, or be able to influence education funding policy or funding decisions, or know someone who is.听
Here鈥檚 our suggestions, but don鈥檛 be frightened to share your own personal experience, if you think it would appeal to your audience. Importantly, it would be worth exploring their interests and motives before diving in 鈥 if you have time!听
