What’s Your Witch’s Brew? Finding New! As you are looking for bookings for August, think outside of the box. Who are the people you know and the places that you go that you can find new customers and hosts and also ask for referrals. Loyal and satisfied customers are a great way to find new. Ideas to keep in mind:	• Reach back to your customers who have purchased Ebony Pottery, Black Baskets or black fabric items – especially if you have not connected with them in awhile. Share the contemporary look of our Halloween offerings and how they can add a little fun to their modern décor.
• Approach new mothers who want to begin the tradition of Halloween celebration with their family and will love the longevity and timeless nuances of Longaberger Halloween products.	•
• Include Host Bundles in your customer e-mails and newsletters and be sure to attach the August flyer.	• Try a Host Stacking at your show presentation to demonstrate the value of being a host in August.
