Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

Mousie_2

Hubbys been and collected my books in tonight and eeekkk, someones placed an order and not put their address or name on the order form. Its a £17 order. Ive tried to match up the handwritting but haven't been able to! Its from one of about 20 houses, what shall I do?

Anybody else find the new website very slow and harder to use

I applied online at 9.30pm on the Monday, had a phone call off my ASM on the Tuesday and was signed up on the Wednesday :T

I applied in the (very) early hours of Wednesday morning, got a phone call on Thursday, and was seen today!

I'm a fully fledged Avon Lady people! :j:j:j

I'm glad I went direct through the website, I like my Area Manager, plus, because she's been on holiday and not been dishing out books, instead of 20ish to get started, I've got 79!! 50 C16s and 29 C15s! Yeah baby!

Now... just trying to think of what to write on my slip by way of:

a) Introduction to me, your new Avon Lady!
b) If you don't want this, tick here and write house number
c) anything else?

My ASM (AGM? M&M?) wants me to go door knocking to ask folk if they want a catalogue, but like folk here have said, that just gives them an opportunity to say no! Would rather someone who may have said no, ended up with it through their door and started flicking through if they were bored.

Hi,

Yes it should be fine to return this. My ASM has told me Avon accept everything back except from underwear and earrings for hygene purposes

My ASM told me they do accept underwear back, I didn't ask about earrings, but I'm certain that would be a no no.
Though if someone returns underwear, I hope it comes back in the bag! _pale_

I don't include this as it gives them the idea of saying no IMO, I just wait for them to tell me they don't want it and so far not many have.

My slip looks like this:

Please may I have your order back by ……………….

Please feel free to email your order to xxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I will call to collect your Avon brochure on ……………..

If you won’t be home, I’d be very grateful if you would leave your Avon brochure outside, even if you’re not placing an order.

I will deliver your order after …………………

(cash on delivery)

Thanks

Melanie

Tel: xxxxxxxxxx

email: xxxxxxxxxx@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

I attach them to the order form to save me filling out each order form I post.

I am really fed up now.................
:mad:

Been out posting books tonight and someone has already put them out.
It is my area, i did it last campaign.
I called my ASM while i was out. It went to answer machine and still no answer from her yet.
She hasn't called me back since i have been signed up.
I have asked for more area instead of sl cast offs.

Rant over ................for now.

Did the party planning tips get posted yet? I wasn't sure if I'd missed them why I was on holiday. I'm going to do an Avon party in my friends pub (if he agrees to let me borrow the upstairs function room!) in November, when I can order from C17 and C18 ... OH said he'll help out, he thinks it's a great idea :T

If you're ASM isn't keeping in touch/getting back to you then she's not doing her job properly and you have the right to complain. My ASM is wonderful and fully appreciates what she has to do in return for her salary and company car!

oooh i wasnt so sure i could be bothered checking the camp before to see if i could get stuff cheaper but so far im saving £1 and getting the moroccan spa robe for free

also from camp 15 someones ordered the petal perfume for £10, but if you order the womans version for £14 you get petal free. So im going to order the womans version, costing me £4, nice little xmas pressie there!
