Hi, I was on the old thread a while ago now!

thought I'd check back in cos

1. I need inspiration
2. I have registered for tax - very scary
3. my area manager is really annoying.

we get a new one soon thank God so I might be able to change my territory

any one got any idea how you could deliver to a block of flats. The security door is some times open but not always? I am wondering how best to approach it! not that any one has given me permission to go there...... its not on my terroritory?

any how I shall go read,

Don't bother phoning the call centre re VAT. They haven't a clue what it is, never mind how it will affect prices.

To the credit of the guy who answered the call, he is going to check it out and ring me back (although whether he, or I, understand the answer is another thing entirely )

I just sent an email and its been passed to the Finance Department so hopefull we will have an answer soon.

Im sure the indian call centre dont know what VAT is

Haven't posted for a while, but am always lurking. I said ages ago that I had only been supplied with my first campaign brochures and had paid for my second, one of you lovely Avon ladies (& gents) said I should ask for a refund, so I did, and I got it!

Have just been given some new territory, only really wanted another 50 houses or so, but ended up with 125. I've just started C18, so am using my old C17 to canvas the new houses. They are all within walking distance of where I live, which is handy as I ended up going out four times on Sunday. Don't quite know how I'm going to fit it all in as I work full time and have a part time job as well.

Got an order from one new lady, and a few encouraging`please leave a book next time` so hopefully my customer base will keep growing.

Well, the lovely Indian gentleman did ring me back as promised, but only to say that they haven't been updated yet (I feel really sorry for them, since they can only say as much as they know, which is **** all!)

I shall email Avon too* and perhaps if we deluge them with emails we'll get some answers. I don't want my customers either not ordering at all until the prices go down, or worse, thinking I'm pocketing the difference.

* done!

Whoooooooosh

Great news Biker. I think I'm going ask for some more territory, even if I have to travel a little to it. My town isn't THAT big overall anyway.

Louise, I don't think you're allowed to post your email addy on these forums hon.
