Notes About The Poem

 

Estée Lauder believed strongly in a personal touch (literally—applying lotions and lipsticks to faces) and in word-of-mouth marketing. Her mantra was, “Telephone, telegraph, tell a woman."

*Toman is an old Persian gold coin.

T x Three

Entrepreneur Estée Lauder.
Foundation, concealer, and powder.
Advertising worth more than toman*:
"Telephone, telegraph, tell a woman."
