  • really? i always thought avon ladies got a good commision.
    i think if i managed to get an order of about £100 i managed to get around £20 comission, not very good if you are out in the freezing cold delivering brochures, then collecting them 2 days later and then going out to other doors. Its okay though for the representatives only catalogue, you get really good bargains i think I bought the 50 sample vials of womens perfume for £4.99 at the time.

    me too, not even a compliment slip!


    Same here. It's taken me 3 days to realise it was Avon. I'm amazed they didn't include a catalogue, what if I really like the stuff?

    :rolleyes:

    Got mine all wrapped up in a RM plastic bag as the 2 tiny samples were in a normal brown paper envelope and had got damaged obviously! Got a little lippy in a nasty colour and a sample of Anew cream which I told them I was already using. No comp slip or literature or brochure. Very poor marketing from Avon, samples in bin (except the Anew which I just slapped on), won't be using Avon again has put me right off, obviously don't listen to people do they??

    After writing a fairly detailed e-mail, today received hand addressed envelope containing:
    3 samples of foundation
    a lipstick
    2 samples from the Anew range.

    All the samples had the word Avon on them somewhere, and I expect that Avon assumed that I would be able to contact them as I had already used their website to get in touch in order to obtain said samples!
  • Hi I too have e-mailed them today :) Thx!!

    Got mine today too. Big brown envelope contained a sample of foundation and a sample of bodywash, bit disappointing but they where free and it was worth a go :)
