No really… why DOES she need an apron?

I just don’t understand why Flo from +Progressive Insurance needs to have an apron on to sell car insurance.

I’m a groovy cat who’s into technology, Eastern Thought, and house music. I’m a proud and dedicated father to the coolest little guy on the planet (seriously, I'm NOT biased). I’m fascinated by ninjas, the Internet, and anybody who can balance objects on their nose for long periods of time.

I have a utility belt full of programming languages and a database of all my knowledge on databases... I practice code fu. Oh, I've also done actual Kung Fu, and have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do.

I run. I meditate. I dance. I blog at PaulSpoerry.com, tweet @PaulSpoerry, and I'm here on Google+.

I'm currently work for IBM developing web enabled insurance applications for IBM and support and develop a non-profit called The LittleBigFund.

    There's actually a few explanations of that, and one from the company that might be partial truth, partial spin.

    yeah, that's the spin one. It's also supposed to remind you of people at certain types of stores (like grocery stores, or a big box like Home Depot). She's not a 'sales person' but rather a worker, just like 'average american Joe (Josephine)' like the customers Progressive is trying to get.

    Some of the commercials are decidedly targeted to millennials (and the big stereotype is surly/quirky Starbucks barista; Hello green apron!) so that may also be part of it.

    I'm dressing up as her for Halloween. I get a name tag with my name on it!

    It's because car insurance is a dirty business.

    ……no really, they suck. It's like government endorsed extortion (not that the government needs anyone to do the extorting for them). ¬_¬
