Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

LozzaB

I was 7 months pregnant and had a toddler when I started as a Rep but didn't start SL until my youngest was a couple of months old. I wanted to get to grips with doing Avon as a Rep myself before I tried to train somebody else how to do it. I also wanted to make sure she was okay and that I could manage okay with 2 under the age of 2 plus I didn't want to feel like I was letting my team down when I was so busy with a newborn.

Thanks Lozza, I didn't get a message at all, it does say on the invoice to check messages but I don't have one! I also ordered the Storm set (handbag and sunglasses) and it isn't on my invoice nor does it say it wasn't supplied! Really annoyed as that was what I wanted the most

I meant to say the message section of the Rep site... I'll go and cut and paste it:

Oasis Watch Fixed Discount Error
There has been an error in the fixed discount applied to the Oasis Watch. Please see below the message that affected Representatives will receive on their next invoice explaining what action Avon are taking. Oasis Watch Fixed Discount Error
Please note that on your previous invoice there was an error in the discount applied to the Oasis Watch when ordered at the customer offer price of £5. The correct fixed discount is 45 pence as shown on the promotional flyer, and not £1.50 as stated on your previous invoice. We have made the adjustment to your discount on this invoice. If you want to return the watch please note that the ‘your price’ cost shown on your invoice on the internet of £3.50 is incorrect. This should be £4.55.

Thanks Lozza, still think they should have sucked it up as it was their mistake. If a store made that error, they would just leave it. Well I better have all my stuff when I get my order tomorrow!

.. just joined Avon and went straight into SL, but didn't think it through. I am near the end of the mailplan and so was no way going to achieve my Fast Start bonus- gutted! Despite having signed up 12 people in 2 weeks.. I have had to sign them into my second campaign! I have had sales of £448.00, personally but this is not even going to cover my costs- losing faith but am not going to give up yet!!

Now can I just ask the targets that everyone is talking about is this to join President's Club or have I not been advised of something?

You have 2 campaigns to make FSB for 3 active reps and a further campaign to get up to 5 active reps for the 2nd FSB so you should be okay. What costs have you paid out already? It should only be the first £7.50 aof the admin fee nd the £25 SL kit. Your upline should provide all your SL brochures, appt packs etc for your first 2 campaigns as it will be her that gets the refunds not you.

There is an incentive running from C10-C12 where we each have a personal target set by Avon as part of their 50th celebrations

Costs have been petrol and time I suppose but happy to put it in to get it up and running.. ooh so will I receive a target after my first order do you think?

Hi Ladies

this is a big ask but hoping someone can help me out. One of my first customers has just told me that when she ordered the eye shadow from C8 it didn't come with instructions on how to use it, but it had them in the book. Does anyone still have C8, and could you give me the instructions please? It was page 33, product number 14274 the violet sky eye shadow.

Thanks in advance.
