Very interesting. We (naturallycurly.com) have a very active community, but it doesn't necessarily translate to sales. Look forward to hearing more.

Its true that you have a huge number of followers on twitter and lots of feed subscriptions but if you are not targeting the right people, with the right message you aren´t going to sell.

I look forward to listening in more detail about this subject.
