No one here is able to answer that. Why not ask them yourself?

Male reps do incredibly well with avon.

There are many reasons they use that slogan, including the charities that Avon support as well as the flexibility of the job meaning that it is eminently suitable for women looking after children. Also, when Avon started out, the products were more limited and focused solely on women. There were far less men openly wearing make up 125 years ago.... If you email Avon I'm sure they will give you a more detailed explanation.

With unemployment rising as it is, we will see more and more men and women joining MLM companies. Its an excellent way of increasing your income and, if you work hard enough, providing a full time income, for a very small investment. I'm certainly glad someone introduced me to MLM.

All the article does is confirm that the statement

"The Company For Women." is not correct , which we already knew.

I would think it just means that the majority of products are for women, but nowhere does it state that its for women only.

Seriously, the best "Avon lady" I ever had was male! This was about 25 years ago, in Utah, USA -- an entire generation ago, so they certainly must encourage male salespersons today. He did an amazing business, from what I was told, because the women LOVED receiving compliments from a male point of view. I'd suggest any interested man to go for it.

I agree! I'm with an MLM company and the income I earn from it means I only need to have a part time job, my residual income makes up the rest. I'm hopeful that, in a year or so, my residual income will cover all my needs and more and I can bin the part time job as well. :j
