A great way to get the most out of Hacktoberfest for your repo is to identify where you need help before and create issues in those repositories with the label "hacktoberfest" or "good first issue" or any other tag to signify the task is a good entry point into your project. A lot of first time contributors check out websites like https://goodfirstissues.com/ https://goodfirstissues.com/ to find issues to work on.
Other than that be vocal about your participation. Write a blog post, post on twitter, participate in the Hacktoberfest Discord, attend local Hacktoberfest events in your area, or even how your own Hacktoberfest event!
Be sure to review the maintainer best practices on the website https://hacktoberfest.com/participation/#maintainers https://hacktoberfest.com/participation/#maintainers
Happy Hacktoberfest and best of luck!
