Sayville Summerfest

Today was the Sayville Summerfest and The Summa Sleep Company was there selling their organic buckwheat pillows. Sayville is such a great town, I am proud to have been raised there. I love going back now and just appreciating how awesome it is. I miss being so close to the beaches and downtown is just so wonderful. I was glad to spend the day there and most of all sharing that time with by bestest friend in the whole-wide world, Dawn. Sue, my other Summa Sleep Company partner was there of course, she is one of the sweetest and most fun people I've ever known. I love doing this stuff with these two ladies.

I am always impressed that even though we don't do any advertising, we have year-round sales all residual from basically this Summerfest and some from Bradstock last year. We had a lot of past customers stop by our booth saying how much they love their pillow and how it has truly changed their sleep. We always get great interest in our pillows because not only are they good for you, but they are made with organic buckwheat and covered in hemp, which is one of the most environmentally friendly materials on Earth. It's something that a lot of people care about and we do to, so we're pretty proud that we came up with something so unique and to hear positive feedback gives us the confidence to keep going.

We did pretty well, we sold a lot of pillows and I am sure we will get more customers from this festival. We are going to try to get in to the Apple Festival, again in Sayville, which is in October. We'll see.
