    Not quite its 13 days from the invoice date , or when you place you next order if this is sooner.

    You receive the order approx 5 days after the invoice date , so when you receive the order you have approx 9 days to get the money in

    I always pay the day I place my order and I've never been charged :)
    Proud to be dealing with my debts

    :hello:

    To returns come off the total , anybody know ? If not i might have to put ina big order and return it :rotfl:


    'Fraid they do Deanos. I'm sure I read over on Flissy's someone got their PC stripped in C3 earlier this year after returns took them back under.

    Have you asked a pub if you can do a stall for Xmas? You could order a load and try and sell it at an even to help you get in? Or you could give everyone you know Avon for xmas lol.

    My order si totally wrong :mad: Six items missing and four wrong> But on the plus side, one I never asked for in the first place and 44 packs of order forms instead of 32!

    Ah well, will see what this next order comes to (C17) and what we need to earn on the last one (C18) , as its getting nearer xmas it should be going up.

    Looking on last years info we took £588 in sales in C17 so hopefully they should pick up alot.

    Maybe the 007 Perfume will go well but im pretty sure it wont, the heavily advertised stuff never seems to for us :rotfl:

    Hi all, I am on my first campaign and its not going too well. I was given 2 roads as territory......spent time putting out books in the first road, went back and not 1 order as apparently someone else was doing that road. Have just got back from picking up books in my second road and got 1 order for £5!! I dont really have too many friends to ask, I put a note on the intranet at work and 2 people wanted books, apart from that noone is interested!! HELP!! My ASM was saying that it would be really easy to hit the higher sales level etc but I am nowhere near it and a bit demoralised really!!
    Debt free = December 2010...as of March 2006 it is now January 2010..... as of December 2008 it is now December 2009 :j hopefully sooner!!
    :jDEBT FREE:j January 2012, took longer but I got there, all by myself, through sheer hard work and pride!

    Speak to your ASM, though you might have to wait until Monday - it soulds like someone has stomped your territory, PEOPLE, THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULDN'T JUST TAKE OVER STREETS EVEN IF THEY'RE NOT TAKEN AT THE MOMENT!!! The ASM should either give you more territory or speak to the other person.

    Don't be demoralised, hun, it is hard to establish your territory, but once you've done that it gets a whole lot easier! Are there any hairdressers, shops or hospitals, office blocks etc near you where you could leave books until you get hold of your ASM? There's one rep by me, that's all she does, and she's PC!

    My lovely DH has been out this morning and dropped off C17 books on the remaining two streets for me - bless him!!!

    I did one street yesterday but I think I was too picky where I put them. Not to be snobby but I was a bit put off by the state of some of the houses so didn't leave them a book. One bloke did come straight out and give me a book back and told me that as his mother was 86, he didn't think they could use Avon products.

    Fingers crossed all this work generates some orders!!!

    I still have a few books spare so I might try some of the departments at work that don't currently buy from me and see if they are interested.

  • Hey everybody :wave:

    I know there are loads of questions flying around just now and its hard to answer them all and keep track, but im still looking for advice to a previous post I made.

    If anyone can help as im not sure how to go about my first territory drop, should I just post books through the doors and leave a note for them to leave the books outside on a perticular day for me to pick up or should I take the time and chap each door and ask if they want a book left.

    Im assuming I may get a mixed response to this as not everyone has the same views, but any advise would be great.

    Thanks
