Avon Hints and Tips (Part 3)

Unfortunately I'm miles away lol in Derbyshire! Not sure where the other SL are based - but they could be some reps on here in your area who could suggest their own SL to sign with.

Noglet

Good idea Lozza1985.

Are there any reps on here in the Portsmouth area who would recommend their SL?

You will automatically get sent extra copies of the HT once you start ordering greater quantities of brochures.

Once the smart start changes come into effect in C5, all reps get swapped onto the new system, or at least thats how I read it.

how much higher quantities? lol I order 5 packs for myself and get one for me. surely if i was ordering for reps i would need 1 for every 4 packs (im getting myself confused lol) or does it automatically send extra now that my site has changed to an SL site? (make sense? lol sorry)

and yes i hoped that maybe everyone would be switched over on the smart start but im not sure as if someone on the old one was halfway through they might be sent the same things again if changed over as its different incentives isnt it.

ie 1st camps usually makeup/makeup+ perfume samples

1st camp new ANEW/ ANEW+ perfume....

I think they finish the smart start they started on to be honest. (hoping im wrong lol)

lozza1985

Yes now you have your sl Site once you order your next lots of brochures you'll be sent extra ht, one for every 20 brochures I think, you get sent plenty in any case I always have too many!

ü Put your books into re-sealable bags, this way people will leave them outside even in bad weather. I use ebay seller jwspackaging, who have an ebay shop under the name of JWS Merchandising.

Thanks Lozza - what size bag do you find best from JWS? Ta,

signed up my 4th rep this evening, 5th on tuesday. whoop whoop.

gutted though i signed my OH up on the current camp as we had enough to both hit target, just as i had signed him up i got an email about the changes to fast start or smart start thingy (me? sl? lol) anyway the camp 5 is when the changes happen and the incentives are soooo much better than the usual ones! lol oh well. serves me right for being impatient.


lastly...isnt the credit limit a blimmin ball ache?? ive explained it to my reps because i wasnt told and it was a big shock having to pay up front in my first campaign but you can see the worry in their faces lol.

OMG, i pressume you are serious? What if my customers dont pay? oh !!!!!! !!!!!! !!!!!!!! :(

Its very rare that you have to pay upfront for your order, usually new reps get a credit limit of around £250 - but that is the amount you owe avon, not the amount of customer orders, so anywhere up to £300 orders and you are usually fine.

If you did have to pay upfront, and you couldn't manage to deliver any orders, then with the 90 day guarantee, we can send products back, for any reason, including not being able to deliver them, so then you would get any money back that you had paid.

I think its usually the 8 x 11inch bags I get, they sell them in various quantities. The quality is good, I find I don't have to change them all that often, maybe every campaign I have to throw one away due to dogs or whatever nibbling them lol, but on the whole they are very hard wearing.

Brill, thanks - I'll give them a go!
I've been using supermarket ones but got my last lot from the pound shop and they have done surprisingly well. None of them seem to survive the dogs at the door though!!

These Figures you all quote in your signitures, are they total orders, or total Earniings? Just wondering!
