Ignition!
Michelle Coe, a second generation basket maker, introduced Tami.
This was the first time that a weaver has done this.
As Tami spoke, the excitement began to build.
Could it be?
Tami has been with The Longaberger Company since 1984
TLC celebrates 40 years next year!
Claire, Tami's daughter with a communications major is a 5th generation Longaberger employee.
The Past Present Future are all alive here today! Claire's first day on the job was spent going through Dave's recordings to help with Tami's speech! What an incredible education in just one day!
Ignite your future... "The fire in your belly... Feel it in your belly before you have it in your heart - it is an automatic telegraph to customers - keep the fire in your belly!" Dave
Hope Solo - has the fire - at age 12, "When I grow up, I want to be a professional soccer player." That didn't even exist!
The Dream Builder Plan - Learn how this plan works!
Use it and love it. It's making other cooking companies a little nervous! When you love it, it is easy to share!
We do things with a larger purpose. We are family. We do things for a higher calling. We craft more than baskets - we craft relationships, a better way of life, community of family and friends, people join because we have something found no where else. It is "Heart and soul". We love it, not just talking the talk.
Lynette Call, top recruiter last year with an all time high number!
Top tales this year is an all time high!
The power of our sales field achievements every day are incredible!
Dave, " listen, trust. We have a relationship as long as we continue to listen and trust each other. Continue to listen and trust and keep a good relationship.".
Dave, "This business like life is always changing, but you have to keep going. TLC knows how to survive the winter. Winter is a time to set back and take a good look. Winters give us knowledge to be the best company in the world. Winter gives us vision with strength, then comes new life. Spring always comes. We are a blessed company, blessed and thankful. We love our country and cherish our children's future. The season is changing." Dave lived in the future and never looked back. He always looked to tomorrow. "We must take this opportunity while it is still an opportunity. The past is no big Deal. The big deal is what we are going to do in the future. It is the core of who we are."
In America, politicians talk on theory until someone does something. We can do something. We can act now. I have faith in The Longaberger Company, you and America. America is in your heart. It is important to you and family. It is bold step time. The American dream is like a precious basket. Made lovingly, but weathered. It still holds. It has been battered and bruised, knocked off the table, but the wood is still strong, the weave is still tight. Who will repair America's basket? Who will rebuild America? We will set an example that hearts will follow. We will once again become an American craft company of all Made In America products.
Volumes of potteries dried up and could not meet our demands. We did what we needed to do. The majority of our products are still made in America. We were founded in the heartland. We stand for American values. We want to help rebuild our country. We want to return to our roots.
YES!
We are bringing America home!
God Bless America!
LIFT OFF!
And this is Mike, the man in charge of 'Project Eagle',
bringing our products back to America!
I have not heard so much applause, whistles and shouts
since the 9X13 Baking Dish was introduced.
This time, the enthusiasm generated was just as high, but different.
It included reverence, hugs and tears.
