Mackenzie Hancsicsak, who plays a young Kate on the hit show "This Is Us," is more than just an actress, she's also quite the saleswoman.

Hancsicsak, 11, used the SAG Awards as an opportunity to boost her Girl Scout Cookie sales.

"Look for me. I’ll be the one in a blue dress w/ @girlscouts thin mint cookies in my purse,” she tweeted before the show.

Hancsicsak send a friendly reminder on Twitter that she had cookies on hand at the awards show by posting a picture with co-star Parker Bates posing with a box of Samoas.

“If anyone at the @SAGawards wants some @girlscouts cookies, I’m at table 34!,” she tweeted.

Hancsicsak got some love from the Girl Scouts on Twitter. “Now the SAG Awards will be even sweeter,” they tweeted, adding, “Don’t forget to remind everyone that those boxes are packed full with empowerment!”

Even if Hancsicsak didn't boost her sales numbers, she didn’t walk away empty handed. The “This Is Us” cast took home the SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by an Ensemble in a Drama Series.

Congratulations, Mackenzie! We hope your next award is becoming top cookie seller!
