It was a forum where cloth diaper store owners from the US & all over the world gathered at.

It was a ripple effect. I didn't do any offlline advertising. I still don't. The few times that I tried it (parenting magazine ads) I found it way too expensive and ineffective. I don't believe in the 7x rule, where your ad has to be seen at least 7x to be effective.
I'm a huge advocate for building relationships with our customers. We put a lot of time, money & effort into creating high quality products and earning our customers' loyalty & trust. That's our way of marketing our products. Customers that trust you are more likely to recommend your product over others.
