There's a Boho Chic body spray, it's a green can. It's not a perfume though so you won't be able to do a sample. Haven't got a book with me to check page/code numbers at the moment though xxx

C8 boho chic body spray - page 96-97 bottom right hand corner, code - 17988 -£3.50

Hope that helps

I've had quite a few people order the am/pm cleansers last campaign, and a face cream and had no complaints so far! I've been using the radiance cleanser myself and have found it to be really good - maybe I just have weird skin lol! Though I only use a tiny amount maybe that's why?!?!

Thanks ladies, I didn't even notice the body spray, it's the right page number too, she musn't have noticed it was in spray only. Hopefully someone else will order something out of that range and I can get it for her for a £1.00. That could be her free gift as she has ordered over £20;)

So went back out today to try and collect the stragglers, only managed to get one back:mad: I am missing 7 catalogues out of my 20 now:mad:. One woman said her daughter had taken it, so I asked if she was going to bring it back, she said she didn't know but could try and get her to bring it back in time, she said if she didn't it's not as if I could use is again anyway as there are only used once!!! I told her that I have customers on an earlier campaign, so yes I could use it again. She just said well I can only try:mad: The cheek of the woman!!!! So far the majority of the territory I have tried sux! I have only had one order and most people that have seen the catalogue have ticked the box that they don't want a catalogue in the future!

I am still unsure whether my territory is being covered by someone else as the Area Manager has to get back to me and let me know, there is some confusion over which direction of the street is already covered. My SL has told me to go in the opposite direction now as I have been told by 3 people that there is alread a rep that does my current area

I have notified my SL that I don't have enough cats to do another drop so the sooner she can get me more the better. I have one more hairdressers to try next week and if I get them then that means I have 3 large hairdressers that have my catalogue:j Should I bother trying some local businesses? We have a Poundstretcher, Au Naturale, Iceland close by, don't know if it's worth asking them?

Another question, for the current Hello Tomorrow (Camp 8), how long can I order from this book? Is there a cut off date?

I've been out collecting stragglers too ... another new order :j:j That's a total of 11 new customers off new territory and 6 new customers off existing territory :j:j

Didn't offer an incentive but have LOADS of samples so am going to put a little bag of samples in each order and a free gift with the bigger orders out of the freebies I've got stockpiled too

Total orders currently £315 but may get more from work tomorrow and going to my friends house after work tomorrow too so she can look at a book :T xxx

Summer - I am on Cam 8 too! Hopefully we can both study it and spot things the other hasn't!

Right, I have all the brochures in bags, all with a note from me but I can't pluck up the courage to post them - what's wrong with me - it's only 1 road right next to me!! I think I'm scared of people being out in the street of people saying they don't want it! Why am I such a wuss? I can't pick them up til Wed so am thinking I can do it tomorrow, but why put off today etc...
Was anyone else scared the first time they delivered??

I ws petrified! Really confident when I applied etc then when it came to actually delivering the books I was really worried. Even now I worry about new territory but once I've been round once then I'm fine. If I see someone outside their house I just ask them if I'd like a book and if they say no I make a note of it so I don't call back again. Good Luck xxx

I am exactly the same, had everything ready yesterday but just couldn't get myself to go out and drop them. It was such nice sunny weather and with it being a Saturday I thought that people would be outside their homes etc and I didn't want to face them (why???:o). Have left it till tomorrow now, but am really mad at myself coz it will take longer to do the whole territory... At least school holidays are over and if I do it at 9 after dropping my kids at school, I should be fine.... Guess I need to get used to this.

Glad I'm not alone!! A friend just rang so now it's too late as my programmes are on now so I will have to do it tomorrow when I get in from work. As long as I get in and do it straigh away I will be fine, even if people will be in!

Hi I'm new to avon just completed my first campaign, and was thinking about doing parties. Has anyone got any experience of parties or handy hints they could give me ?
