I know the story you're talking about and I can't for the life of me remember the name of the company...wish I could, because oddly I'm working on some content for a multi-level marketing company right now, and always like soaking up the big picture on things...

She had this (rich)couple on the show who were struggling with their son's allergies. Then they discovered a small company that made all natural cleaning products. Once they switched, their son got well. they were so impressed they BOUGHT the company, and started having these "tupperware style parties" for Manhattan socialites, to introduce them to this product... I wanted to hate them... but the reality is, that people of means think differently, and one has to appeal to their sense of "class" in order to get them to consider going green.
