    Always a bit nerve wracking waiting for the orders to come in! Hope you do well! :T

    Why don't people leave their cat out!!!
    How many times do you guys go back in the hope of retrieving them?

    I tend to go once more after the date I said I'd collect them. There's always a few people who forget (even me before I was an Avon lady) :D xxx

    Up to £111.55 on my 1st campaign so far. Got some more cat to collect and give out else where.
    Was beginning to think I wasn't going to get any orders at all.

    How can I word a note asking people to give me my cats back without sounding too horrible. I've seen one one here, but can't find it. Any Ideas?

    You could try something like this?

    I hope you have enjoyed looking at your AVON brochure. I like to get my books back if possible as I try to re-use them, so I will call back TOMORROW. However, if you would like to keep the brochure longer, or you have a query, you are welcome to contact me on xxxxx xxxxxx(or leave a note with your brochure and I’ll get back to you).
    Many thanks

    Thanks for that.

    Does anyone know how long before I can get on the website? I've been told it takes a week. Is that right?

    Help....
    A friend of mine asked for an insect repellant for going camping
    I thought it would have been in with the suncreams but can't see it.
    Hunting online from getting home, they are saying the blue sss dry oil has anyone tried this?
    Don't want to recommend it unless it works.
    I have told her if I can't find one to buy a bottle of citronella and a spray bottle of water and use that but it would be great to advertise this as an insect repellant if it works xxx
