Old Business Model Dusted Off and Given A ShineWith Avon fending off unwanted acquisition attempts, most recently from rival Coty, direct selling has come under the spotlight. Built originally on door-to-door sales of make-up, the publicly traded company has made news in the past two years not only for making losses – but also for venturing into a rapidly growing sector, direct sales jewellery. Since 2010, Avon has expanded the focus of its younger beauty brand, adding trend-driven costume jewellery and advertising it with such faces as Twilight’s Ashley Greene. In July of that year, the company also bought Silpada, a sterling silver jewellery company with $230m in annual revenue. |
