  • Tired Mummy, what do you have in mind? Sales, recruitment, new customers,charity? Let me know what your goal is and I'll try to help

    Many thanks Silver Charming. I was hoping really mainly for sales and possibly a few new customers (as I am in a village and I think it will mainly be regulars there plus poss a few new people). I have'nt got a clue how to dress the table and whether I should laminate the best buys in the brochure and then have them on display?? I was going to order a load of Christmas gift items (as I take it I can return them if I don't sell them?) but apart from that I'm a bit clueless :o ....

  • Louise, do you not think you should apologise to Mikiki and everyone else on this thread before you start asking us to help you again? Otherwise I for one am going to ignore you for real this time.

    silvercharming - i did not get involved before but i have to say i agree with you completely. the ignore option can be a very useful tool.....

    Well I've used 3 barcodes for each page of returns (better safe than sorry), taped them all to the box.
    I'll send the handbag back with the next order, but will check the time period first and if it's out of time I'll chalk it up to experience and keep it for myself!

    Only put one label on each parcel otherwise when the box is scanned, it'll only pick up on one barcode ie one sheet of returns.

    You can always put all items in one box and put all the sheets in together with just one same barcode number on all 3 sheets. (You just input the one number when filling in the returns form)

    Or you can parcel up each sheet per box seperately. Either way is fine :)
  • Thought I'd add this tip. If you've got loads of stock (I've got so much in my bedroom cupboard) then have an Avon sale.

    I mark all my items with coloured dots (red=£1 yellow=£1.50 blue=£2 and then white with price on more expensive items) I did this last week and made about £150.

    I've now made up a couple of boxes and given one each to friends for them to sell items to their friends and family, and offered them 10% of money/orders taken :)

    Hmmm a bit drunk and not stopping long but was wondering whether anyone else had spam posts about another avon forum?

    I've only done 3 campaigns and I have 2 boxes crammed with freebies through clever ordering etc :D A lot of it's going in the hamper for the raffle at my Avon party but think I'll do an Avon sale in the pub after a few more campaigns when my stocks back up again :T

  • I have also done 3 campaigns and got 2 boxes full and 3 bags and a clutch bag which i have to hide from my daughters lol.
    Plus have made a bit extra from back ordering etc.
    But i also give a bit back. I had 3 customers this time who didn't notice the underwear offers, buy one get one free and half price, so i have amended there prices.

    Right.......really need some help here.

    Someone has messed me around and I need to know how to send 4 items back......

    I have done the online credit by saying what I want to go back but then what do I do??? It is on my order so what forms do I fill in? How do you all wrap them Up?? do you just put them back into a Avon box and then seal it again??

    Also, how do i get another road/territory as I have people about 6 on the road I do but the rest dont want anything.

    Thanks all xx
