    I'm on my 2nd campaign for Avon and have almost £400 worth of orders. I was just wondering how I could find out what my credit limit is or if anyone knows what it is for a newbie? As a student I cannot afford to pay a lot up front.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi, I think Lozza said it doubles each campaign, so your first campaign would have been £200, now £400. But remember, £400 worth of orders, does not equal cost of orders, as this is the price customers pay, then there is the amount you pay Avon and then pay yourself. :D

    Strange but my cost was £234.44 and nothing at all was mentioned about my 'limit' or going over it. Maybe mine is higher..?
  • My starting credit limit was £500 so I think it is different for everyone :confused:

    Thanks AvonNewbie, yep sounds like people get different starting credit limits.

    I know the reps I am signing up are only on £200 to start with but for C17 and C18, it was raised to £300 in anticipation of the big sales they would get being xmas books.

    Well, I think the best thing is not to worry too much and your ASM or SL will let you know if there is a problem.

    One of my reps was telling me the gentleman who owns the corner shop has started selling Avon too. He is on his second campaign and said he made £500 on his first. Now I don't know if that is his discount of £500 or made £500 in sales.

    Basically, he leaves the books and order forms on his counter and as customers come in, if they are interested, they take a book and form and bring them back with their completed order. As easy as that!
  • That's a great idea and an easy way to make some extra money

    In C17 the bath roses on on offer, £2 a box BOGOF. I have tried adding these to my order but if I add 2 I am being charged for 2. Am I doing something wrong?

    Is it showing in your subtotal that you are being charged for 2 AvonNewbie? As I ordered some for my customer and I didn't realise they were bogof until I pressed subtotal and it came up as free.

    sorry Avon Newbie, just realised the customer ordered the 4 in 1 nail buffers, she always buys the roses.

    Just checked the book again, bogof is only on sleep therapy. Very small print.

    If I order the digital photo frame from C17 and don't like it, do I simply send it back and I receive the £20 credit? I wouldn't have to send any products back would I as technically it isn't part of an offer, you just simply need to spend £20 in the brochure to get it for £20.
