Can I ask ....

when you say "To get your bonus, you need to sign up 5 reps within your first 2 campaigns", do you mean the first ever 2 campaigns as a sales rep?
Becasue that would mean that anyone who has been a rep for ages who then decides to try SL will miss out on the bonus.

Or do you mean the first 2 campaigns after becoming a trainee SL?

thanks in advance

yes my reply is badly worded. It is after you become a trainee SL.

ive asked this before...but does anyone know how easy or difficult it is to become self employed with regards to beinga rep and SL...i dont want to get in any trouble but am incredibly daunted (not sure if thats the word im looking for lol) by the whole process and keep putting it off...i know i shouldnt but i get so eassily confused!

Hi Lolly

If you contact the tax office, there is a number, think it is on page 1, for becoming self employed, they are very helpful.

They talk you through your options, ie opting out of paying national insurance as your income is less than £5,000 a year, etc.

They also offer free courses on how to submit your tax returns which is very helpful.

thank you...you are always a fountain of knowledge.
im so worried about stuff like that...i really do get confused ....i think alot of that is self confidence etc.
im having such a bad day lol..why do things always seem worse than they actually are

Aesop

Lolly, I think we are all under so much pressure at the moment, with it being December, having to buy xmas presents, write cards, post cards, post presents, etc, etc. It makes us feel very different to our normal lives and that is why things seem worse then they actually are. But it maybe that things are just as bad as they seem. Just found out that a large sum of money was taken from my avon bank account yesterday meaning I am short to pay my avon bill. I can probably find out in a couple of days who took the money and if fraudulent, get it stopped and repaid back to me.

oh no Aureol how awful for you. Hope it gets sorted out and you find out who has done it. Life is stressful enough this time of year without that to contend with as well. Poor you

Aesop

thank you chops. It has just annoyed me as had banked the money to pay avon and then today when to pay and not enough money now.

You hear about it quite a bit, and just wonder how it happens. I think someone randomly keys numbers and gets lucky, even with the 3 digit security code. Nothing is foolproof these days.

Aesop

Echo, I think they mean it will be delivered before 21st December, as this is the last day they are sending out people's orders.
