Just wondering what you guys have found to be the best time to pick up orders on a Sunday - I have asked them to leave brochures outside but I'm guessing I wll prob have to knock on a few doors!

thanks again for all the helpful info posted!!:T

I tend to go around 6pm on a Sunday as most people are home and have had dinner/been to church etc by then

My AsM has just left, I am going out with her on monday to watch 2 sign ups,
I am also going out one day next week on a brochure drop.
if i want to become SL then i can.
I will see what's it like, at the moment it sounds fine.
She is also sorting out the issue of territory pinching for me.

She said sorry for lack of contact, personal family reasons.

I have only a few 16's left and Asm had also run out.
will have to do more runs out this campaign

The first time I dropped I only had time to do one road (got 4 orders from 50ish houses), this time I did the longer road and got 12 orders (I think) from 100 ish houses. Picking up the books tomorrow from my brand new road (delivered 24 books, 2 people didn't want them and having to skip the last 4 houses this time) so fingers crossed... with a couple of orders from them and at least 2 I'm expecting at work on Monday I'll hopefully clear the £300 mark :T

Wow, and I was happy with £180 last time! Hope you reach that amount, I will be happy if I clear £200, but I only have 112 houses on my territory, although I have asked for more but I am guessing it won't be easy to get hold of my asm, so far no response via email.

Hi Guys,

I've got my party tomorrow afternoon and am really panicing! All my demo products arrived yesterday so they're all sorted, but I'm sure I've forgotten something. I've got fabric to cover the table, and different size boxes to create different levels for an eye catching display. I'm trying to go for a really big campaign this time as I was struggling a bit over the last campaign as I'm a newbie and havent had any support or contact with my SL apart from a reply to a text I sent her (after I'd rang her 5 times and texted her loads) so any help you can give would be good!

What are your top tips and things you simply HAVE to have at an Avon party?

Thanks

Was in town today and noticed that WHSmith are offering a laminator for £9.97 - thought this might be useful as a few people have mentioned using a laminator for stuff.

Does anyone know where I can get sheets of pink tissue paper and shredded pink tissue paper?

Have you tried home bargains or poundland.?

Does your local Matalan have a party section? Usually a good variety of stuff there, failing that pound shop/card shop? Woolworths or WHSMith?

I thought Matalan was members only? Or is that somewhere else? I need to go to poundland today to get more food bags for my new C16 books so will have a look in there. Thought W H Smiths would be expensive so wanted cheaper alternatives lol. Thanks Ladies

you could try a card shop too if you have any on the way..

And good luck with your party
