Oh right...I was going on about them to my rep and she looked at me like I was a loony! She obviously hasnt read her special preview magazine properly!! Can you tell me how much they are? Im really debating doing Avon myself but dont want to tread on her toes and think it would annoy her as she is a friend who I buy from.

They are a special introductory price of £15 in C11 but will normally be £18. I should also add they are bright pink lol.

I don't see why your friend would be upset about you doing Avon as well, aside from losing a customer. Ask her if she is a Sales Leader as you are thinking of signing up too. Otherwise, whereabouts are you as I'm sure between those of us that are SL on here, one of us will know someone in your area?

I love pink so thats not a problem, I think she would possibly stop talking to me if I did Avon, tbh I think I am her only order as she doesnt canvess or anything. I currently do Betterware but am seriosuly considering stopping after only making £3 this week for about 4 hours work.

I'd say go for it. There'snothing stopping you from doing avon. Especially if your friend doesnt really bother with it. I cant see any problem with you doing it, you have your own friends besides her and your own family and you'll get your own area. I'd love it if one of my friends said she wanted to do it, then i'd have someone who i could talk avon to all day.

I collected 20 cats today and got 2 orders totalling £20. But thats £20 more than i expected from that street.

I seem to be promoting all the wrong products, im a bit out of touch. Im promoting all the really good offers and all people want are the face lift cream and the wrinkle filler. Along with the skin so soft dry oil spray for it's repellent properties.

Lol her only orders come from my friends and family....she does nothing for her orders. Which annoys me and makes me think I might aswell be doing it myself.

OMG that's so lazy!! Why should she be earning from your efforts instead of you?

If the outlay and ongoing expenses aren't too much for Bettaware then I'd be tempted to run both alongside each other as it increases your network and sales opportunities, especially as BW seem to offer much bigger territories than Avon do. I have just signed up a rep in my team that will be doing both and I can see it working really well for her.

I should really go and do some canvassing this morning but I can't really be fussed :rolleyes: going out this afternoon so if I'm going to do it it will have to be before one :rolleyes:

Avon party went ok, orders totalling £115 but was hoping for a little more offered a free gift for orders over £30 but highest order I got was for £27

managed to do a bit of clever ordering from the Smart Woman's Secret brochure though so bumped up my money by £8 ish.

And the only woman not to order anything won the raffle :mad:

ah Melvis, it's always the way isn't it, the person who made the least effort gets the prize. but well done on your party going well. I bet if I had one, I wouldn't even make as much as you in sales.
