Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

lyndsey80

I delivered my last road for C9 and one girl STILL hasn't got her delivery from me, so in her cat I left a note saying I still had her order and to let me know, either phone/text/e-mail saying whether she wanted it or not. That was yesterday. Will be collecting her cat tomorrow, if she just ignores me then I think I won't bother giving her another cat!!!

It's not just me, then, that gets really excited about checking the brochures when I get them home.......pathetic really - what exciting lives we lead :rotfl:

BTW, I can definitely report that SSS works on sticky labels. Just picked up an old bottle of week killer in the garden and got bits of the label all over my fingers. The only problem then is getting the SSS off your fingers :rotfl:

Elliebee - I'm pathetic too! I love checking to see if i've got orders - as soon as I'm out of sight of their house in fact!

:question:
I'm trying to ordrer the Perfect Wear Foundation in Shell, the code in the book says 19919, but on the website it's saying I can't use that number for this campaign. (Tried it under C8 as well but no luck.)
Do any of you have your C9 info. to hand - does it say there's a different number to that printed in the brochure?

(I haven't done it for a few months so Avon haven't sent me any info.)

Anyone happen to know what the closest one is to almond? Typical start order for family again and they've changed the colour names! :laugh:

Can't find anything on my paperwork for the shell thingy. Try doing a search - click of the magnifying glass (next to the bit you put the code in)

I've just tried that code for both C8 & C9 and it accepted it on both. No corrections on it either, so far as I can see. Sorry I can't be more help, but perhaps someone else can shed some light.

Just finished entering the orders I have to date and noticed that Nailwear Pro is cheaper in 8, as are liquid soaps and sun creams.

I don't get.
I'm on campaign 9. It gives me the option of 8 or 9 on the website. What do I need to click on to order campaign 8 items? If I click on 9 as I think I have to, that means I can't order any more 9 cats.
I've only just started and could do with some more.

I imagine that as C9 is your current campaign, that the website might not let you order any more books unfortunately. I could be wrong though but that might explain it. Could be worth ringing up to double check, unless someone else knows better on here!

katie, if you can't order anymore books, could you not ask your Sales Leader or Area Manager to drop you some more books? Obviously t he more books you have the more likely you are to have sales :-)

I have to check at each door if I have an order, because the first campaign I got 2 orders, I just picked them up and went home. It was only when I got home, and looked at them all happily that I realised one customer had just signed it and not put her address or anything. Luckily it was a small street and I knocked on my first customer's door and asked her if she knew this lady as I didn't have her door number. Luckily she did!

I have had the same problem with a customer not putting her address details on the form this campaign. When I pick up the cats I normally write the number of the house on the stickie I have attached to the front (the one that asks if they don't want anymore books to tick the box). I don't check if I have any orders until I get home, and I started taking out the order forms that did have orders. I didn't realise until I took them out that this one didn't have an address and the signature is illegible. Luckily I have narrowed it down to a few numbers and I have a sneaking suspicion which address it may be. I am going past on Saturday to ask if they placed an order, here's hoping they did:rolleyes:

I am going to try the Anew foundation as I see I can actually get one for free in the C9 catalogue. I had tried the Ideal Shade foundation but I don't like the consistency or colour. I ordered creamy natural and was thinking of ordering Almond in the Anew one. Can someone tell me if the foundation is a bit thicker than the Ideal Shade one? I used to wear Boots No7 Perfect Wear (the one that stays all day, can't remember the name now) in Almond. Am hoping it is similar????

I haven't heard from these 2 customers either Lyndsey. I have given them until Wednesday but am not holding out hope. I will not deliver any more cats if they don't respond.

Elliebee I noticed that make up is considerably cheaper in C8 too. I will manage to get some great creative ordering opportunities because of that. Quite a few customers have ordered make up but not the watch so I intend to back order for them. I have a few make up orders for C9 for myself anyway so will get a watch for me. Does anyone think it is worth getting more than one to maybe put in as a freebie/raffle etc at Christmas?

I am putting out another 10 cats tonight as that is all I have left of C9 as the rest are all out. I still have more C8 to deliver which I intend to do tomorrow. I want all my orders in by Thur so it isn't a mad rush to get my order done.

Not much Avoning for me today....I just have to chase up the same old "stragglers" they have now had a cat for over 2 weeks.

I have inputted most of my C9 orders, I will do the rest on Sunday ready for submission on Monday evening.

With a little creative ordering I have got another Anew bonus Bag (to add the one from last time).

Loads of cheaper make up cause half of the people who ordered it didin't orderd the watch.

I am umming and ahhing about the "fit flops" in HT but £10.50 seems alot of money and I don't know about the sizes.

I have ordered all the new shower gel and will take them out with me to demonstrate.
