[Lnc-business] LP store

[Whitney Bilyeu]

Some if the items are branded.

Many people won't by items if they say LP, because they don't necessarily
want to advertise for the Party. Either way, the Party makes money, and our
messages get out. A mix of items, branded and not branded, have performed
better than only LP branded items.

If you have a specific branded item/message you would like to pitch, feel
free.
