I can remember starting TGT with only a handful of friends. We'd stay up to all hours of the night, skip out on work, and probably collectively created 100 user accounts on as many forums to get the word out. I had some idea what I was getting myself into, but frankly who knows if it was going to work. We were determined to make it work, and slowly those 30 people became 300, then 3,000 and the rest of it we all know.
Today we are averaging nearly 8000 visits (or more) a day ... we have over 18,000 members, half of which are probably spam bots, but still we got a lot of great people. We've made over half a million posts, work that out to 30 seconds a post and that is 173 days worth of posts. Last year, the TGT family of websites reached 2.14 MILLION people. Our last social drive on Facebook reached 1.4 Million people in a single week and garnered over 20,000 likes on our page.
We've had legislation born from this collective, we've attended rallies, we've gone out of our way to help the troops to the sum of hundreds of pounds of beef jerky, collected thousands of dollars on numerous occasions to help fellow forum members in need. I can only be proud of the people and achievements we've made over the past years.
All of this, in less than 5 years time.
Thanks from the TGT family for being a part of our success, and for sticking it out through the thick and thin. All I can say is hang on ... we're only getting better.
