  • I have went in an ordered a few of the products and saved it, is that okay?

    I am thinking of ordering 50 C11 cats, I can't decide if it is better to order more (putting out more money) or order less but spend more time doing them?

    yip thats it hun
    saving it and then you just add on as you go along ;)

    I don't do a territory but I would say until you know who is interested it would be worth the extra few quid and save time, then you can reduce your brochures once you know how many you need and do the leg work then.
    dependant on your territory, I would say 2-3 houses per brochure
    so 100 houses ( 33 brochures ) 300 houses ( 100 brochures )
    that way you can drop on the monday
    pick up wednesday have a day off the thursday and put oput again on Friday for collection Monday
    following week
    Collect monday
    day off Tuesday
    Drop Wednesday
    pick up Friday
    saves a mad rush and stressing if the weather is rubbish ;)
    Life is what you make it;)

    Recieved my order today and for the 3rd time in a row, I've been charged for items that i ordered but have not been included. This has only happened to me about 5 times in all the years ive doing avon. Now happened 3 times in a row, ive requested a refund but getting a bit concerned about it happening this often. I cant prove i havent received them and dont want avon thinking im scamming refunds from them and keeping the items.

    it's about learning to dance in the rain.

    Are you sure that the number of items you've ordered from that range will divide by 3 - if not then the 'odd' ones will come up full price. Perhaps one of the items ordered is not included in the offer (it should say beside it in the brochure if it's not).

    I wondered the same thing when I had 3 items missing from my order. I am hoping that this time everything will be there, but I must admit I have had no quibbles from Avon when I requested replacements. I guess this happens a lot.

    it is not included in the deal, was looking last night
    although according to the top advert on the page can save up to £10 you can as there is no other goods at £5 :mad:

    aureol212, I hear ya on losing cats. I don't understand what is so difficult about putting them back out for us. You think they wouldn't want to be bothered with notes all the time. Hopefully your friend and Waitrose will come through for you. How many campaigns have you done?

    I think half my customers don't read anything, just put it all to one side. :rolleyes:

    C10 is my 4th campaign,
