    Rang Avon yet again today to see if they can get my ASM to get in touch with me, the lady was nice this time, and said she'd ring her landline & mobile and ask her to get in touch with me urgently......I'm not going to hold my breath!!!

    I know she will surely have to get in touch at some point........but I just don't see how they can make her get in touch with me anymore than me emailing/ringing her......

    to be honest I have a feeling she's gone on holiday!:mad:

    Hi Everyone!

    Ive designed some flyers for the bra siz guide so if anyone wants the details i can send them to you!

    i am also really annoyed i was also doing well and achieve over £150 in my first camp for 1& 1/2 streets and my 2nd camp over £250. I was allocated two others streets so i had over 150 houses. Now i find some other rep is doing my own street and my other streets that have been allocated to me im soooo angry!!!

    Also im goin to approach some buisnesses in my area with a "goody bag" full of samples but i dont have a clue how to approach them?? Do i just pop it through the letter box when they are closed or go and talk to the manager. Also i think i may also offer free gift with every order?

    If anyone wants any help with any flyers pm me and i will be more than happy to help! :)

    Oh well, the bracelet was the wrong colour so will just see what the ones on Ebay go for.

    I got another order from the hairdresser that I left the book with on Friday so up to £72 now (well £69.50 after the bracelet I suppose).

    I'd say it might be best to pop into the businesses so that they know who you are, and then they might be more likely to order - especially if there is a nice receptionist you could get chatting to!

    Has that other rep been allocated your streets in error? Or are they just doing the streets at random? Might be worth checking for their details in the books (apologies if you have already done this) and then ringing your SL/ASM to complain!

    Evening all,

    I'm very confused, I emailed my ASM yesterday to let her know how I'm getting on and asked for details of the territory thats apparantly free in the village near where I work. I got a reply today with the addresses for over 250 houses!!!!! that included some that she said a couple of weeks ago were taken by another rep!

    Is she losing her marbles?!

    Not necessarily - I'd double check still - but, it could be that the rep that was covering them a few weeks ago has given up doing Avon, and therefore they have become free.

    When I signed up I was told my road has been taken earlier that week....the following week I was given my street along with the ones coming off from it, so I assume that rep must have given up!

    Yeah maybe, but ASM said this other rep put her first order in so I assumed I had lost those streets? oh well best wait to hear back and know for sure. If I do end up with all those though.....help! thats a hell of a lot of territory to cover!
