Avon Hints and Tips (Part 2)

chillin_nutta

Hi all, needing some advice. I'm planning on buying one of the bags from avon, but not sure which to go for either the demonstrator bag or the rep bag...

Do they come with a sample pack included? or do you buy that separately?? which one is best the £10 one or the £15 one? Also i'm paying my £15 admin fee, would the price of the bags come of the first order and the second order too like the admin fee?


On a brighter note, handed out all my books yesterday and got quite a good response, with it being such a small village I was a little weary, but 9 times out of 10 they were lovely. Even got hubby and brother taking books to there works. The only issue I have is one woman said her daughter does the avon in this area, I was shocked to hear it as everyone else was delighted and couldn't be happier that ' A NEW AVON LADY HAD APPEARED' they told me no one has been around in years... and one lady that lives down the street emailed me last night to say how delighted she was and that next week I should knock the door to meet her properly. She has even passed the brochure onto friends. I was a little weary about doing the avon at first but got a real buzz doing it yesterday.

Thanks to Elliebee for her promo stuff, it helped a lot and my customers were delighted to get a little info on there new avon lady... so thank you honey

I received an email from Avon, you cannot do internet banking, only pay by Giro at post office, hsbc or debit card.

So will have to do giro at HSBC.

Okay getting really p'd off with Avon now. Got my order delivered today but there are 3 boxes missing, courier advised me that she doesn't know where they are but if she finds them she will bring them in to me this afternoon, well they still haven't arrived. She said if she can't find them than I will have to reorder them:eek:I have had a quick look through the boxes ( I am at work) and I can see that there are loads of items missing, including a pair of PJ's and fit flops! What can I do? Do I have to wait and see if they show up? I have organised to get my deliveries out on Friday as I am away for the weekend. I can't believe I have so much missing, before it has been small things, not really costly things, those two things alone cost almost £30 and that is not including anything else that is missing.

AAAAHHHH what do I do?

Also just noticed I have been sent and charged for several items I did not order, and they ain't cheap either. My order is a complete mess.

Also according to my invoice my vouchers for the 4 things (haircut, beauty treatment, 15% off Homebase and 1/2 price holiday voucher is enclosed. I don't see anything, does anyone know what I should be looking for?

Hello Everyone,

I'm new to AVON, I only signed up on Friday (a week before my 1st order is due). I haven't been assigned territory yet by my SL is pestering my ASM about it (apparently ASM isn't amazing for my area). So far I am only able to sell to friends family and co workers. I have 3 orders totalling £50. and I have more books to get back yet.

Cant wait for territory, that'll mean i cant put lots out and hopefully get lots back.

not as bad as my order last week.i had about 15 items that were either missing (not even on invoice),missing but charged for and things that had leaked.asked for immediate replacement ( copied it into word for my records) and got confirmation.looked on monday and saw that the items i'd ordered that weren't on invoice STILL hadn't been ordered for me so i had to ring them up.then i saw yesterday that these 5 items had been duplicated on the invoice so emailed them ( and 1 item i hadn't been given discount for).these along with 2 items that hadn't been in stock might be here before i send the next order off and i still haven't had the first replacement i asked for.trying to work out how much my invoice will actually be is a task in itself as i have to apply credits.after my email yesterday they emailed me to say i can get them picked up with the courier the next time ( gosh i hadn't thought of that.doh)and that a credit had been applied.i give up the will to live

It's just an A4 sheet with 4 perforated vouchers (from what I remember). The Homebase one was for specific dates only.

I didn't get excited about them :rolleyes:

the vouchers are crap-i got mine last week.i don't go to homebase/or need anything from there,don't need a new hairdo and would cost me in bus fares to get there.don't want a haven holiday and as for the spa treatments there isn't anywhere near me
