  • Hi,

    I am happy, finally sorted got me a creidt limit and a welcome e-mail so I ready to go.

    Do you put all your orders on the system on the same day or can you do a few each night then submit on the deadline day?

    I have got about 10 so far.

    I am quite pleased really got just over £100 in orders. Put 23 cats out last night and when I get those back I will have another 25 left to do. So I am hopeing I make the upper limit.

    I am quite enjoying getting out the house a bit too. LOL.

    You can enter your orders as and when you get them, the website saves your progress. Just don't send the order to Avon til you're sure you've entered everything :D Remember to check your other brochure to see if you can get items cheaper (e.g one of my customers ordered 2 x black suede sprays at £3.50 each in C3 - total £7, they were buy one get one for £1 in C2 - total £4.50 so I ordered from C2 and made some extra money :D)

    I would wait until you get all your orders in, then you can maximise your orders by backordering or adding free gifts for yourself etc, i find it alot easier to work out that way with the paperwork in front of me
  • thanks for the advice guys. I would love to try that but this is my first camp and i only have C4 cats, I do not have a C3, what is the best way to get one?

  • In that case, I wouldn't worry about it this time around. When you've got the first campaign out of the way you'll have more idea how the whole thing works, so it will be easier.

    Good luck!

  • Is it just me who finds these 2 week campaigns soooo annoying. I wish they would just keep them the same all year round. Oh well this is the last one - order being submitted as i wonder on here

    I'm back on 3 week campaigns now :D can finally find the time to canvass instead of just going to houses that have ordered before ... fingers crossed people who didn't order last year will order this year, though it seems unlikely! Wish ASM would give me some new territory :mad:

    I know I've only taken books to family over the 2 week campaigns so not to pester people between Christmas and New Year. I didn't want regulars to miss out too much so gave them C4 dispite it being 2 weeks and most people forgot or didnt understand it was a short campaign and so hadn't even looked at book. Surely if most reps felt the same avon would listen and keep to 3 weeks all year round:confused:

  • Morning Everyone

    Does anyone know how long Avon will take to deliver items that were missing? I was told they have sent it straight out and I will receive it by then end of the week. The trouble is I am in all day today and most of tomorrow but have to go out all day Friday, and knowing my luck they will deliver it Friday. Also do you think I should deliver the items I have received even if it's part orders so as not to keep customers waiting?

    Many thanks
    Anne
