    Hi
    Ive been doing Avon for a year now, and have decided to branch out and offer parties to my customers.
    Has anyone got any idea's on what i can do at the parties eg games, demo's?
    Also has anyone got any experience of these parties, how successful are they? what do you offer as incentives?

    Thanks for any help :D

    I'm doing my first customer Avon party next Saturday. I'm offering £1 to spend in the brochure for the hostess for every £10 orders received at the party. I did a Christmas Avon party in my house last year but it was snowing and hardly anyone turned up! Hoping this one will be better. Been told we're expecting 25 guests or so :eek::eek:

    I feel like I'm a walking advert for avon today, avon underwear, avon top, avon flip flops, avon sun glasses, avon hair products and avon sun cream. Shame I'm only in my garden and no one will notice

    Good luck with the party let us know how you get on with it next week.
    My first sign up is going to have a party in a couple of months and I will do a joint one with her as I have also just started Phoenix Trading ( am I allowed to say that?) So hopefully I will win both ways there provided I have 5 reps in my team I will earn off her avon sales and my Phoenix too;)

    Don't know if anyone can help but need to let tax credits know that I have left my part time job ( 9 hrs a week) and am now self employed. When they ask how many hours you work is it better to say under 16 hrs or over. OH works full time. Thanks

    Lol! Hope you haven't got burnt today! I put factor 30 on but think I may have still caught the sun a bit! Bless my Mum, she came up today for us to go out shopping....let her have a look through the new HT (first time she's seen it!) and she's written out her next order even though she won't receive the stuff from her last order until I see her next weekend! She wasn't sure about ordering the new tinted magix....I told her if she didn't like it that it isn't a problem to send it back - and she's like "I can't send something back if I've tried it"! Think she's realised now that it won't get me into trouble! She worries a lot bless her! :D
