    I think I might try that next time as I didnt get much joy from my territory, most of my orders have come from friends, family and local businesses.
    How did you get the local businesses interested? What type of businesses did you go to?

    We live in small town and our flat is in the market place above an accountants and estate agents, we know alot of people who work here as we use their services regularly, my boyfriend simply asked them all if they wanted a book and most said yes.

    Hi, just been reading though this thread to get myself in the mood for going Avonning again :)
    I was hoping to get some advice - has anyone been away from Avon for a while, and come back again? Do you have to register again? I just stopped ordering for a while as was having pain towards the end of my pregnancy, haven't had a working computer for a while so that's made it even longer, and I was hoping I could just go onto the site, order some books, and go back to my old streets and my old customers. Is this possible?
    I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick @ss.... and I'm all out of bubblegum.

    I think that if you've missed 3 or more campaigns you have to re-register with them and (possibly) pay the £15 admin fee again. Have you still got your SL/ASM details? They should be able to let you know for sure xx

    I would think you'd need to contact Avon to see if the streets you used to do are still free as anothe rep may be doing them now. From what I've been told you cant do any streets or areas unless you're told you specifically can

  • Help! Waiting for my order for C5 tomorrow but as using books twice there were orders for C4. One of my customers on C4 has just dropped their book off with an order for the Advance Techniques shampoos (98p in C4)., she wasn't in when I went to collect. Can't now backorder this far and looking in books 5 & 6 can't get anywhere near the offer in C4. Its a new customer so don't really want to have to go back to her and ask her to pay more....

    Any ideas

    the pink leaflet was for c4 & c5 with the shampoos for 98p... so you will be able to order them at 98p on backorder in your c6 order.. :)

    They are still 98p on the avon website so if you can google a free delivery code you could order from there? :confused:

    well im on c6 and have just double checked and added a magix using the 6.99 code from the pink leaflet and it accepted it and is showing as £6.99 on my "view subtotal" :confused:

    I'd have assumed it would be ok as the leaflet was valid for 2 campaigns?! (as apposed to the normal one sale leaflet - that you can backorder from but they are meant for one campaign)
