    Cheer up Karen your orders are good considering you don't do territory. I get very few orders from f&f. Have you never thought of asking for a small territory to boost sales a little or do you not fancy that?

    I can commit to that to be honest
    I suffer depression and anxiety which also includes agrophobia
    I am fine in my "safe area" I feel okay in my mum street but no in my own ( I have only been here a year )
    On a good day a territory would be fine but on a down hill day I wouldn't manage and don't want to be inconsititent.
    I will muddle through somehow I am sure ;)
    Thank you for the post though thats what I love about here always someone to pull you up when things aren't going so well xx
    Life is what you make it;)

    I sympathise with you. I get very anxious and get the dreaded red rash all over my neck in some situations. Thats what puts me off becoming a Sales Leader as I know it will happen at sign ups and I'll look an idiot:o

    I'm yet to start C9, but I hope to do well and actually get some money this time:rotfl:I had a lot of customers say although they hadn't ordered last time, they will this time. I'm hoping the good deal will encourage people to spend a bit more...

    Sorry Vicky, can't help with that one but am sure someone will. Avon aren't very good with their instructions at all on some products.:mad:

    I agree BusyB........and when they do print instructions, they are later incorrect and we get the ammended instuctions on our invoice paperwork....so we then have to explain to the customer AGHHHHH.:mad:

    I have started my C9 campaign. The good thing is people have actually looked at the brouchure, I can tell by the way they have put it back into the bag, but no sales, not even for the watch.

    Sent a text to my friends selling the ped egg and the Foot Works but only one texted back to say she would ask her friends if they were interested.

    This is my third campaign, did not do well at all on C7, C8, got 2 orders..... Here's hoping this will be a better campaign.

    Hi everyone

    Sorry I haven't been around recently. Done ok with my last couple of campaigns and for C8 I am up to around £200 worth of orders with a whole road to go yet which I am collecting tomorrow.

    Had a problem with a woman who ordered stuff and decided she couldn't afford it when it came to paying :rolleyes:. Needless to say she won't be getting a book again as I can't be doing with timewasters like that.

    At the weekend, I sent a few emails out to local hairdressers and beauty salons asking if their staff were interested in getting an Avon book to look through regularly. One replied today saying I was more than welcome to drop one off there so will do that next week. Has anyone got any other places that they leave books?

    I have asked my SL for some more territory but haven't heard back from her yet so will text her tonight. I am also going to do a prize draw for my territory for C9/C10. I've got some surplus stock that I can put into a nice hamper I've got for the main prize and will be buying some gift sets for runner up prizes. I thought that 1 entry with every order and then 1 entry for each additional £5 spent would be good as it encourages them to buy more.

    I hope everyone else is getting lots of orders :D
