does anyone have Skin So Soft Soft and Fresh replenishing dry body oil spray that they could send me? I will pay you and for p&p. Just had someone that I had told about it's insect repellent properties ask for some by Friday!

Thankyou.

Hi. I've got one - was just about to give it to someone as a pressie but PM/email me at [EMAIL="avonchris@live.co.uk"]avonchris@live.co.uk[/EMAIL] and will gladly get it in the post to you.

Gotta share, coz I'm just a tiny bit excited (....yes, I know my life is sad, LOL!)....

Just placed my very first order as an Avon Rep!! Woo-hoo!!

Even sadder, I'm looking forward to Friday when my order should arrive and I can unpack it all and sort it into 'orders'.

Thanks to everyone on here for all the advice, tips and answers to my (many) questions.

My road allocation problem seems to be sorted now, so onwards and upwards!!

Just to be a bit of a grump - is anyone else struggling with orders for C5? All seems to be quite dead on the orders front. I have MOV but not much more - is it me or what? I do need to recanvass but with order day on tuesday and the forecast looking quite snowy down here for the rest of the week, its unlikely I will get much done.

It was me lol though you are showing as a new user on flissys, assuming you are using the same name so I'll send flissy a message for you.

Hi all

Looking for some advice as im really confused, lol

I use to sell avon years ago but gave it up. Anyway, i started again last week & have been given a territory which i have canvassed & done really well with for my 1st camp. I have £350 worth of orders. My area manager said something about a credit limit on your 1st campaign & she was going to get back to me to let me know what it was. As lovely as she is she is useless, lol & has hasnt. So today i phoned avon & was told my limit is £300. I dont really know what to do now, If i put £300 in on my regular order & then place an additional order will that work, or will i have to pay off the £300 first. Plus will the additional order have to be above the HOV to recieve the 25% commission.

I wouldnt mind but i use to be in presidents club years ago so they should know i will pay up on time! This is just making things really complicated.

Any advice would be welcomed

Hi, just to update, i picked some more books up & with my books etc my order was £500. Now i placed it online & first of all it said it was 'HELD' so i phoned them up & confirmed it was due to the £300 credit limit & they would phone me back to do a credit check. Suprise suprise no phone call so i called them & they said the order had reached the billing stage so she THOUGHT the order was going through but couldnt confirm. I have just looked online again & it says my order status is 'Prepared'. Is this what it normally says? or am i going to have to phone them again?

Really dont want to let my customers down as it is my first order

Many thanks xx

Hi, if it says prepared, then it is getting ready to be sent to the couriers. You should hopefully next see with courier tomorrow, and then delivered. Mine though sometimes shows prepared and I have had it delivered!

Good tip but a little query - are you sure the stickers will come off again or does that mean your books are wrecked i.e. you won't be able to use them again (or maybe you only use your books once)?

Mmm yeah I did have a little panic thought last night!!! Might change the offer to say "write the page number on which you find the sticker at the top of your order form".

Bex - I got 250 star stickers for 99p from Sainsburys. They are 4 or 5 different colours
(Had a fleeting thought about doing different offers for different stickers and then realised I'm not organised enough for that!!)
