Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

LozzaB

Okay, daft question time...

In C18 there's the ANEW bonus bag offer but one product should be skincare - what does this include?? I've had a customer spend £25 on foundation & powder and ordered the free gift - will she get it?

Whoooooooosh

Deanos, I chose the Vistaprint free option with a face on the left. I ignored the headings they suggested pretty much & made the slogan under the pic say "Call me today for to see a new Avon brochure" (or summat like that, can't remember exactly).

I made the writing on the right start with my name, then underneath I put "Your local Avon representative"

Then a blank line, then my tel number on one line, mobile on line below.

Another blank line, then my address (or maybe I did them 2 the other way round... I am not sure now lol). Anyway, I thought it looked OK & if I don't like them I'll change the order next time

ty to whoever put the tip about the Netto freezerbags (50 for 42p if I remember right). I chucked some in my trolley when I did my shop yesterday & they are a perfect size for the normal sized brochures. I must remember to put them through the till separately next time, so they are on a receipt of their own & I can claim tax back on them.

Whooosh, I wouldn't use your stamp on the back of the brochures, the ink doesn't dry then it smudges and gets ink everywhere! Seriously, learn from my experience!!!!

Be careful with business cards if you're an SL, we have all kinds of annoying rules we have to follow that don't seem to apply to reps

Vickisaver, SL line is 0845 345 0234 you'll probably get through quicker there

Whoooooooosh

ty for the tips SC. At the mo I'm just a rep, but possibly looking to be an SL in the future.

I think I'll stick to the idea of the stickers on the brochures then, either in that blank space or maybe even on the front so it's more obvious.

I use the blank space on the back to put the expiry date of the brochure. Means that if customers find an old book, they know whether they can order from it or not. I agree with you, SC, about the stamp - you end up with them all spread out to dry, and the ink isn't waterproof so I also worried about it marking someone's cream carpet :eek:

I also go down the line of putting nothing but my contact details on the order forms so that I can re-use them. I think one or two of mine are celebrating their first birthday soon

Hi can anyone help please?

I have just yesterday given out my C1 brochures - next delivery date will be 13th Dec.

One customer wants to order something now and get it delivered early so she can post it as a xmas present. Can this be done and if so how?

MiniLaura

yes you can put in an additional order - they cost £2.50 for delivery but usually come quite quickly - think it was less than a week for mine to arrive from when I submitted the order.

I put stickers on the front of mine somewhere so that its not covering up the writing. Had more people text or email their orders to me since I started doing this!
