Access To Loyal Customers Ecologica maintains a Los Angeles−area showroom, but most of its sales now come via the Main Street Revolution initiative. Access to Overstock’s customer base has led to impressive growth, and today, the company employs 10 workers. Said Schechter, “Overstock.com’s Main Street Revolution changed my business.” - (NAPSI)
