Thanks to a very friendly producer on the Ireland AM breakfast show on TV3, I was able to get a 5 minute slot last Friday, talking about going green and saving money.
Given that I only had 5 minutes to speak and the fact that I needed a range of products to show, I decided to go for the real nappies (and a couple of alternatives to conventional washing power) over eco cleaning products and making your own cosmetics/baby ointments - saving these for another show! :-)
The staff at the studio were really friendly and I was enthused by the fact they were all asking me questions about the products before [and after] we went on air.
I got a great response from the segment, with more people looking at the website in one day than I had, had in the last 2 months combined! A few sales were generated and some really valuable enquires. It's also great to see that other people are starting to talk about EcoBrats on the internet, not just me.
All in all a great experience and definitely worth the trouble of sending the initial email.
