if you buy demo products from HT can they be sent back if you don't like them?

It has been mentioned on here that they can be sent back

My ASM told me from the start that the 'no junk mail' signs didn't apply to Avon brochures.. :rolleyes: , of course it's not them on the street

lol, she needs to come and see one of the houses, where I tried to deliver an Avon book to for the first time. He has across his letterbox, no free papers, no junk mail.

And when I put a book through his letterbox, he came running out with it and asked me if I could read? :rotfl:

I just said to him, it says no junk mail, this is Avon. He said you know what I mean.

I said, thank you, I won't leave anymore books for you, smiled nicely and walked away.;)

Hi mrscmr, welcome to the thread.

As to how much you can make as an Avon rep, it really varies person to person, and on territory and friends and family.

my sales have started increasing because I have started getting more customers and my discount has increased to £90.

thanks ladies!

i start dropping off books later on to neighbours! just to say hello and such. I have put the book with the order form into a small plastic [bright pink!] mailing bag - is that ok do you think? also put a sticky on the front with when i am collecting and my contact info.

thanks

Hi,

What size area are you covering to have such great sales figures??? I keep giving myself a new figure to achieve each new campaign it was £300 for C15 and I have nearly made it this time just waiting for two books to come back and hoefully if they do order I've done it as my order is in tonight.... do people order more in C16/17/18? with it being near christmas. I was hoping to double my sales......

Hi All

Just a quick question, how long do you leave book with customers I have been given 10 books (7 left) and I have until Tuesday 6th to put my orders in. I want to get as many orders as possible in that time so I can hit my target of £78.00 on my first campaign.

Another thing is from reading your posts most of you have already got all your orders from camp 15 and I have until next week so it looks like im behind every one else, can I submit orders 1 week early to try and get ahead becasue like it says above im worried my customers wont get all of there orders due to them already being sold out.

Thanks

No you can't "catch up" - the whole country is staggered ever so slightly in order to help avoid supply/delivery issues, this way it means each area gets their delivery on a different day, as otherwise there is no way they would be able to pack the orders, deliver them to the couriers and get them to reps all on the same day across the whole country! Items that are in the main brochure - don't worry, they normally always turn up fine, they are current products so won't be out of stock - it is more the sale booklets I'm wary off - my customers seem to have a knack of ordering the products that are out of stock lol!

As to finding out what mailplan you are on - check on your green contract (what you signed when you joined) - it will say on there at the top of the page somewhere which mailplan you are on, or at least it should do if the person who signed you up filled it in!

Hiya,
HT is for reps and you can order one of everything in there. As for clearance its for reps again and you can order as much as you like if its in stock.
