Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

Elliebee_2

I know I'm probably just being thick (nothing new there then ) but is this incentive thingy only for newer reps. I started on C15 2007 so does that mean I get nothing for all my hard work. It's a bit like those 'new customer only' offers on credit cards. phones etc........b****r the customers who've been loyal for ages

You know how shark hunters have shark's teeth necklaces, and on tv movies people will have a dragon's tooth dangling somewhere? Well I've now got my own war trophy - a cat's claw! (Well, just the outer sheath, it doesn't look solid.) Dropping note to mad cat lady, finger went a little too far in the letter box, a thump hit the door and my finger hurt! At first I thought it was just one of those hungry letterboxes, then looked at my finger as I walked away and there's a claw sticking out of it! Also got a nice knuckle to tip scratch.

So, the important thing is, do I use my battle trophy as a necklace, or a funky earring?!

:rotfl: first class Pinzy, I love this place some of the posts are so funny and make your day:p

Hi Elliebee

I wasnt told anything about it , I only started 2 campaigns ago and they have automatically sent me the free stuff. How many campaigns have you done so far ??

I beginning to think im loosing the plot :rotfl: just realised you said you started in camp 15 2007, well it does look as though its something they have only just started to do to encourge new reps to use the internet.

Whoooooooosh

Just been to collect my first 22 brochures (camp 17) which I dropped off on Thurs. I got 10 back & left notes saying I popped round for them & will be back tomorrow in most of the other houses (I learned that one house is empty so bye, bye to that brochure ). I only got one order, but it's for £29 & out of 10 brochures I didn't think that was bad. Two ladies have also said they didn't see anything they liked this time but they'd definitely like to see the next brochure, so I thought I might pop a little perfume or lippy sample in their brochure bags next time, just cos they were exceptionally nice to me All the brochures I got back had deffo been read too (I could tell they weren't repacked as I'd packed them lol).

I'm going to re-issue those I got back today round my other street.

About half had left them on the doorstep, but at least 2 hadn't zipped up the bag (I'd got the ones with the zip on from Tesco), so thank goodness it wasn't raining. One single person had filled in my little proforma at the bottom of my introduction letter, saying that they didn't want to see another brochure, so I'm assuming they DO still want to see another & will try them again a few more times.

Oh just had a phone call as I was typing from a lady who wasn't in, she'd forgotten to leave it out. I'm going to nip back in half an hour to pick it up. I didn't ask if there was an order in it (I'll find out soon enough) but she did sound rather eager to get it back to me, so it sounds promising.

All in all I'm rather chuffed. I think with what I want, my Mum's already given me her order, my sis hasn't had chance to look yet but will today & one of Mum's mates has taken a book which I'll get back on Friday, I should hit at least my first target & make some commission

Whoooooooosh

Quick question. I just noticed my lady with the £29 order has ordered it all from the sale brochure. Does that tally with one of the campaigns to form the total & if so, which one (I'm on camp 18 at the mo, but using camp 17 brochures for the houses that I'm just sticking em through their letterbox, cos if I don't get them back it's not such a loss, cos they can't be reused again after this camp, also that's the only one I've got a half decent amount of).

[quote=johanne;....does anyone know what brochure the "Venetian rose" underwear is in?? [/quote]

no idea what book it was in - the rubie bra and thong were out of stock so they sent me venetian instead - which was out of stock!

i did get the venetian thong and that said 'free' on my invoice but they charged me for the rubie bra which i definately did not get!!! think they are trying to confuse us all!!!

johanne

i have just found the venetian rose in the C18 sale brochure. I KNEW id seen it somewhere

I don't even look through the sale leaflets i use them for extra recruiting material if i run out of old books lol.
Just got back from brochure dropping, got an area of 1554 houses to cover. Hope we don't get this snow.:eek:

Yeah I can remember that the Venitian stuff was discontinued few campaigns back cos one of my customers ordered it and they had run out of her size

johanne

how many sale leaflets are you meant to get BTW? i got just the one last order.

BUT my ex took a C17 book into work to one the girls and after many occassions of "oh i forgot to bring in my order etc" and no order ever arriving he asked for the book back.... she passed him a book back... a C14 that wasnt even mine with another reps details on! (who i suspect is her sis actually - the name seems familiar)..... anyway this book had the sales leaflet in it? And i know someone else who had a book put through their door with a sale leaflet in?? Are we meant to get them for our customers?
