Last Updated on April 4, 2025 by Mary Bertsch, Avon Rep
Curious why so many women choose to start an Avon business and stick with it for years?
It’s not just about makeup — though we do love a good lipstick!
Whether you want to earn extra income, have more flexibility, or have a chance to connect with others, selling Avon checks all the boxes.
Here are five reasons women all over the USA become Avon Ambassadors — and why they keep coming back campaign after campaign.
1. Flexibility That Makes Selling Avon from Home So Appealing
One of the biggest reasons women start selling Avon is the freedom to set their own schedule. Your Avon business works around your life — not the other way around.
You can sell online, through social media, face-to-face, or all of the above.
Want to focus more during the holidays? Great!
Need to scale back during a busy month? That’s totally fine!
You might be a stay-at-home mom, a college student, or someone working full-time — no matter your situation, becoming an Avon rep gives you the flexibility to work when it’s best for you. Learn how to sell Avon from home.
2. Why Women Say Selling Avon Is Fun and Rewarding
Let’s face it — shopping for beauty and skincare is fun. But selling Avon takes it to a whole new level.
You get to try new products first, share your personal favorites, and help your customers find exactly what works for them.
From the latest lip colors to innovative skincare like Farm Rx or the Korean-inspired Beyond Glow line, there’s always something new and exciting to talk about.
It never feels boring or routine — because beauty should be fun!
3. How Avon Builds Confidence and Personal Growth
When you join Avon, you’re not just signing up to sell beauty products — you’re stepping into a confidence-building experience.
Every small win, like a new customer or a team member joining your group, builds your belief in yourself.
Many Ambassadors say they’ve grown more outgoing, picked up new skills, and even discovered a passion for leadership.
The more you grow your Avon business, the more your confidence grows. What is an Avon Ambassador?
4. Why the Avon Ambassador Sisterhood Feels Like Family
This might be the most unexpected (and most meaningful) part of becoming an Avon Ambassador — the friendships. The community is full of supportive, encouraging women who truly cheer each other on.
From sharing tips in team chats to celebrating milestones or simply having someone there to answer your questions, the sisterhood is real.
It’s more than a team — it feels like family. Read how to become an Avon Ambassador.
5. Income Opportunities with Your Own Avon Business
You don’t need a huge investment to get started. And you don’t need to be a sales pro. With Avon, you can earn as you learn — and grow your income at your own pace.
Looking for a small business idea for women that truly fits your life? Many Avon Ambassadors begin with simple goals — like earning a little extra for shopping, self-care, or treating the kids.
Over time, some see the potential to go further and build a steady income that supports their family or even replaces a traditional job.
No matter what you’re aiming for, you can shape your Avon business to match your lifestyle and goals.
And with tools like your free online store, step-by-step training, and digital brochures, it’s never been easier to become an Avon rep and start earning on your own terms. Check out the Avon Starter Kit.
