Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

Larumbelle

Yeah, the one near me was ordering between one and five brochures per campaign, and the words 'bloody miserable' have been used in connection to this one too! And some of my customers in 'her' street reckon they've not seen one in years and years!

Good luck De. Hope your order has less stuff missing and wrong than mine did!

Well my order came and was a doddle to do, there was only one thing missing and I can't blame AVON for it not being there, it was all my fault.....................I hadn't ordered it :rotfl:

I also made a good wee bit extra money on that campaign with back ordering and HT, so all in all a good 1st campaign.

Has anyone else taken advantage of the Bond Girl Perfume Money maker offer???? I ordered 6 and Ive sold 4 already to family and friends, I should have ordered more now.;)

Anyway hope everyone is well

De:p

I've had far more luck with BG than I did with U (although with U it was my first campaign) - I actually ordered more during C16 to cope with demand. You can never predict these things though, I think it depends on your customers. Don't forget you can send them back for credit if you want to!

I've sold 2 out of the 3 Bond Girl moneymakers I bought, but that is after having given every customer who ordered in C15 a sample, and also offering £1 off for an advance order, so all in all not brilliant. I don't find perfumes usually go all that well in my area anyway.

Does anyone know what the change is to the blue order forms (had a message about it this morning)? I use mine till they fall apart, so haven't ordered any recently.

My customers prefer the U for her, i have sold loads.
The New order forms just have new legal words added.

The space for rep details is now at the top and on the back there's a thing for the customer to fill in if they want to cancel their order after delivery. They then either call you or send it to head office. It's just to more clearly comply legally with distance selling laws, and to make it easier for customers to use their right to cancel if a rep has left avon, can't be contacted, or refuses to honour it. Nothing much to worry about and you can carry on using the old ones for now, although I don't know if they'll bring in a deadline to switch over later on.

Hi.
just introducing myself as im new to avon. signed up on Friday. just waiting for my territory now, although i have been giving brochures to most of my street lol.
I got my registration email with account number, but its telling me my postcode is incorrect, ive tried twice now and i don't want to be blocked already! any ideas? (i tried with a space and without, and it matches what my sl put on her form

I suppose the perfume is an individual preference. I let everyone sample it so they could smell it on their skin, as I said before I dont think you can tell from the book. Prime example for me was I thought the Ungaro for her smelled lovely from the book till I tried if from the bottle my SIL bought and it was terrible on my skin lol. Anyway Im pleased with the response I got to the Bond Girl so hope to sell the other 2 I have.;)

Hi Welcome to the lovely world of Avon

If you wait about 24 hours after receiving the email and then try again it should all work fine, this has happened to most accounts in my team since the new website!
