Patagonia and Body Shop are just two of the New Age brands that have built their appeal on EcoLogic; meaning a deep and sincere respect for the environment. &lt;img src=&quot;http://norquest.blogspirit.com/images/medium_great_brands.jpg&quot; alt=&quot;medium_great_brands.jpg&quot; style=&quot;border-width: 0; float: left; margin: 0.7em 1.4em 0.7em 0;&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You don’t need mega bucks to earn that kind of respect. As long as you are sincere and act on your beliefs. Saying so across a million ugly hoardings will achieve less than one customer walking out of your store carrying a reusable cloth bag with your logo on it. Every consumer who looks ate it will know that you act on what you believe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is what Patagonia says: Our company mission statement: &quot;Build the best product, cause no unnecessary harm and use business to inspire and implement solutions to the environmental crisis&quot;, gives us purpose and urgency. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can make the same statement when you hand out cloth bags. And for less than you think.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See what we have to offer at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.badlani.com/bags/&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.badlani.com/bags/&lt;/a&gt; and then &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:rajiv@badlani.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;write to me &lt;/a&gt;if you’d like to plan a strategy based on good sense. I respect folks who want to achieve miracles on tight budgets, and I enjoy working with them. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
