Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

lyndsey80

I told my best customer that she can order samples of pretty much most things if she wanted so, typically, she asked for a sample of the new powder / foundation thing in C13, which we don't do in samples!! I said I would order it for her anyway and she doesn't have to pay me until she has tried it, if she likes it. She always orders over £20 EVERY camp.
Still got a couple of deliveries to get out - one to that horrible house, she said she had no money until today and one to a house where I found the order form a camp later!! They didn't answer last night, will hold out until the end of the next camp and then return them. And 2 more deliveries to regulars. Can actually see a profit this month but that's staying firmly in the Avon pot until I need to pay a bill or until I can pay a whole debt off in one!!!
I gave a free gift to a customer - some age defying SSS cream and she has ordered some other age defying cream - hope it's because of my gift! I didn't want to offend her by giving her something for "older" skin, glad I haven't!! I am going to get some Reese Witherspoon samples to and the MM, try and get some more extra bucks in for Xmas. I have hit MOV so far with another half of my territory to go and a few others saying that want to order so hopefully this will be a good camp.
Oh thanks Lozza1985 for the sample request forms, they are great!!

Hi - no problem glad they are useful to you! x

For the fake tan - there is a solutions radiance product that gradually builds a fake tan for the face, perhaps suggest your customer tries that?

As for signing up OH as a rep - I did this, lots of SL do, but he even has his own territory lol so added bonus there, my asm knew that he helped on my round anyway so she was happy to give him some territory in his own name as she knew it wouldn't just be me covering it - perhaps something to try as well? His extra territory has been invaluable, it has the been only way that "Our" sales have stayed about the same since I started, as the sales from just my territory have dropped considerably what with holidays etc.

hoping someone can suggest an alternate product for one of my customers (its actually my mums boss so don't want to let her down lol) - she text this morning asking if I could order another solutions warming cleanser for her......this was from the old range though and I can't seem to spot a good alternate for her? Doesn't matter what range it is from, so long as its avon lol!

Hi everyone... I've just started with Avon. I placed my first order yesterday! I've signed up to help my mum out as she has just been made redundant and is hoping to be a sales leader. She's relatively new herself so it's a bit like blind leading the blind! Also she is in a completely different area to me, in fact she's 300 miles away, which means I feel a bit lost! If anyone has any templates or flyers or posters etc that could help me (and my mum!) get going I would really appreciate it. The territory I was given I dropped out brochures to and all streets bar 4 houses were already being done by someone else!!! I've now been given another 2 streets but apparently there is no more territory available... someone tell me it gets easier!!!

My ASM e-mailed me this afternoon and said I need to make £324 this camp to be a supestar!! Going to really try this camp, doubt I will make that much but you never know.
I had someone text me and tell me they moved into a house and found an avon cat there and could I drop the next one to her so fngers crossed!!!

Hiya if you pm me your email address I've got some bits that could be useful to you - but if you Mum is a sales leader, is she registered on flissys? As if so, all my documents are already loaded onto there lol! If not, send me an email address and I'll happily email you the bits I've got x

I'm afraid this is a bit of a cheeky request, but does anyone have 1 sample vial of Bond Girl perfume they would be prepared to send me please?

I have a customer who would like a sample before she orders and I'd quite like to capture the order in my next campaign if possible? I'm not being too open about the fact she could order it and return it as I don't really want to encourage that if I can help it, although I have made it clear the returns policy is in place iykwim? I don't want people to start thinking we are running a cosmetics library lol

I would be really grateful if anyone can. I'm quite happy to pay for the cost of the sample and postage too. Thank you xx
