I’m so glad you have posted your request for support “front and center.” I think you should keep it there until you reach your goal. Many people may be missing your request altogether.

As for those who have seen it and have not responded, surely the affirmation your blog provides is worth the price of a cup of coffee, a movie (not many of those worth the price of admission), a bottle of wine, a magazine subscription, any number of things we think nothing of subscribing to.

It can’t be easy for you to ask either. I believe this is the third time you have had to do so and that thermometer is moving very slowly. You must have 10,000 readers at least. Surely they can afford a few dollars.

I would hate to have to remove the “TH” from my bookmarks list.

Thank you for your kind support.

You have just been hired as head of the TH marketing department.

I’m sorry, the position is unpaid. But you can make your own hours.

Johanna D. nails it. Let’s break it down:

A reader averages two Starbucks visits a week for burnt coffee. Average cost $12 a week. That is 52 weeks times $12 equals $624.00 a year.

They can’t pick up their checkbook and send you a measly two percent of $624??? That’s 12.48 for crying out loud!!

I mailed you a check on Tuesday.

I don’t think I can compete with Starbucks. They offer coffee. I only offer thoughts.
