    The title says it all. I have been filling in details on the forms for the last couple of hours sohave decided to post on here to stop myself from going stark raving mad!! I am collecting my camp 15 orders tomorrow and deliver my camp 16 bks at the same time as I am starting one stop selling. Does any one else operate this way? If so how do u find it?

    This should be another good campaign for me hopefully as I already have about £180 of orders and have loads of books to collect tomorrow - will keep you updated :p

    Filling in your own details? I get some little sticky lables off ebay costs a couple of quid and have my name address and phone number printed on them, stick one of them on each order form etc, saves time by loads!

    I've printed off lots of little sheets with all the details on (fit 6 on an A4 piece of paper) and staple them to the order form, then just write on the days I'm collecting/delivering etc

    One night of filling in forms was enough for me!!

  • I fill in my forms about six weeks in advance so I don't have to rush and do them all in one night, this way I can do about 10 a day when I'm at work, I tried stamps at one point but they looked rubbish!

  • I print my own labels, I bought a big pack cheap from Viking or Staples or somewhere (used codes and got a free bluetooth headset as well) and I print my own. I've also been printing a few sheets each for my new sign-ups, if any of them want more I'll work out the costings and do it for them at a small charge (they're all still on their first campaign, so none has got as far as needing more yet!)
  • Collected some books this morning and have another £91 of orders :j
    I have discovered though that saturday is probably not a good day for collecting books as not many people have put them out for me - and most people are out so i have to go back tomorrow. Hows everyone else finding camp 15 with the 'special' books???
  • Hi,

    I'm one campaign in at the moment and was looking for a bit of advice - one of my customers wants to order some PJs and isn't sure what size to order she's normally a size 16-18 but Avon don't do that size! What I want to know, in your opinion what are the sizes like? Are they pretty standard? Do they come up bigger or smaller?

    Any help would be great!

    Thanks

  • Hi,

    I'm a 14 but a size 14-16 fits me perfectly, I think it may be a bit tight on a 16. Ask her to try the next one up is it 18 - 20? and remind her of the Avon return guarantee :)

    Im a 12/14 and the 14/16 PJs fit me so i would definately advise her to get the 18/20 ones - or you could order them both and return one for credit immediately.
  • Thanks. I knew I could rely on your wisdom! I just don't want to get anything wrong as I'm new at this Avon lark.
