Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

melvis

Hi pinkpig ... I'm currently on C15 so I'll order C17 when I place my order on Monday. If you're currently on C16 then you'll be ordering C18 when you place your order. You have the option of ordering C17 as well though.

You can always order from 2 books, your current and your previous. If you're currently on C16 then you can order from C16 and C15 as you are doing. Next time give your current C15 customers C16 and your current C16 customers C17 and so on.

I got the starter bag as recommended by my ASM and it's good value for the £10, lots of samples and a full size perfume too as well as the starter bag and paper bags to get you started.

I also got the bag, very good value.
I use 2 books currently on 16 and 15 it also helps when trying new area's to use the older books.
I have offered a free gift with an order over £25 and is currently working.

On Page 47 of HT17 you can 5 different smellies for £3.50, breast cancer awareness pins are £1 in C15, freebies you get from clever ordering etc ... all cheap

Cheers for that, i already have a couple of things from clever ordering.
How much do you all spend on your gifts, don't want to be a cheapskate but want to make money as well..

I haven't actually done the free gift yet but my next campaign starts on Monday so if I can find a printer then I'll do a little flyer offering a free gift. If a customer spends £25 then you're making £6.25 (ish at 25%!) so I'd say no more than £1 - £1.25 average per free gift meaning you make at least £5 off it.

My printer was playing up so i just wrote it in the message box on the order forms.

Nice bit of profit that is.....:j

I have people texting me either orders or to say they have left the book out with an order.

I am going to save their numbers and text them any offers and when i will be delivering their order etc.

Thanks for the replies

The SL told me the date for ordering is 15th October, as you're ordering on Monday does that mean everyone has a different date?

Sorry for asking loads of questions, I'm just trying to get it straight in my head how everything works! I'm collecting my brochures back next week, I'm waiting to get my account number so I can start ordering online. Regarding the free gift idea - has anyone ordered the pack on 10 planners in HT18? They work out at 10p each and I thought would make an ideal free gift.

Lastly, is anyone ordering the bond girl perfume at £10? My SL has ordered 40 as she says it's going to be a big seller. I think you can send them back too if you don't sell them all, so you don't lose out.

ive ordered 4 bond girl sets.
i pre ordered 4 of the U sets, bought one myself and have sold 2. might keep the other one for an xmas pressie.

pinkpig08

Are the U sets out of HT18? I thought you could only order 1 of any item out of it?
