"Broke? I Guess You Could Sell AVON" Vintage Recruiting TV Commercial #lostmedia

Are you broke? Well, I guess you could sell AVON. Do people really make money with this. I know it's like a Mary Kay thing. The only time I've ever seen a pink cadillac was in a commercial or something for Mary Kaye. Like if you see a lot of makeup you get a car. You must have to sell a shit-ton of makeup to get a car. But the only corporate reward thing like that I've ever seen IRL (that means In Real Life) was a Mcdonalds branded Mercedes. It had the Mcdonalds M on it. Wish I had a picture. Oh wait, back to the AVON Ad.

Ok. We need to talk about her eyes. Jessica from South Carolina is a very pretty lady, and I'm sure she's a very nice lady. And if you want to buy some AVON, I'm sure she would help you out. However, you are not selling me on this with those eyes. If you see someone making those kinds of eyes on a city bus, you should get off said bus. The director should have toned that down some. Unless she's auditioning for the stage play about Chancellor Gowron. (https://www.reddit.com/r/startrek/comments/k11u2l/how_gowrons_got_his_infamous_eyes/)

These ads make me kind of sad. It feels like they're taking advantage of desperate people. Then they make them awkwardly try to hawk wares to their friends and family. Then you feel guilty and have to buy something. It's especially unpleasant that they're talking about taking care of families and such since this was during the 2008 financial crisis. I don't think you can support a family on Avon.
