Avon Hints and Tips (Part 3)

Money_maker

Got my most recent order (C1) arrive on saturday. Had Christmas Dinner on Sunday so spent from midnight sunday (til 1.45am) then 8am - 4pm tues sorting out gifts for all my customers. Went back over orders for the last 9 months or so to see what folks usually ordered (don't want to give b/bath if they only use shower gel). Had absolutely rakes of bits and pieces to give as gifts so sorted them out and cards. Either went into pretty organza drawstring bags, into coloured tissue paper with ribbon twirls or christmas paper (a couple were too big and heavy). Sorry, no pictures - so pleased to have finished this, only 2 deliveries left to clear.

Then THATS IT until january - I can enjoy Christmas with no avon to worry about. Will start again just after New Year, C2 and C3 for the very regular customers and C2 for the occasional spenders.

Yippee :j:j

HAPPY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE :santa2:

Hi Candy, £20 and no offers, better to back order to C18 and get the free bag with mascara and lipstick.

That's what I did for my customer, she was pleasantly surprised as wasn't expecting the free bag.

My SL was telling me that I should order even just one item - ie 99p for any campaigns I am going to miss, especially as I have territory. It is to keep my account active and to keep my territory.

awww that's such a shame Candy. I just back ordered on my C1 campaign as she ordered from C1 as she really liked the perfume from C17. So she was pleasantly surprised to find the free bag.

Unfortunately, if they have processed your order already, you can't add to it, I know have phoned up several times on behalf of my reps.

after my delivery didnt turn up on saturday i was then told to expect it on wed by 3 different people...it arrived today! lol good job i held off on telling my customers a certain day as i managed to get a few out of the way today.

wrapped a few little bits in some festive red paper for my best customers and wrote a note saying 'just a little something to say thank you for being a great customer...and happy christmas'. put xmas cards in with orders and through doors so hopefully even those that didnt order this time have had a nice bit of xmas cheer this week lol

anyway my hands are disgusting and dry from the cold so thought i would order myself some hand a cuticle cream...also i get dry -itchy elbows so i saw the planet spa buy 3 for whatever and thought what the hell promote through using and all that (i never use hand cream etc usually) so...opened the planet spa shea butter hand cream....YUCK!!!

god its so sickly! i put it on without smelling it and cant get rid of the smell! oh its awful lol. does anyone like it?? i dont know how i would be able to say to a customer ...'oh dont you just LOVE the smell of this??' without pulling a face lol

Am with you phia.... an old friend mentioned how lovely the Planet Spa goods were that I bought a variety. Don't even like the shea butter body scrub (although got to admit it does the job) - just makes me want to gag. The neck and chest serum gave me a 'spotty' chest (just what you don't want at Christmas! :mad:) Foot and elbow cream I am trying to persevere with as I have really dry skin (prone to psoriasis) but not even sure that's going to stay.

Whilst complaining :rotfl: I tried the Anew Reversalist serum but it ran out really quickly. (Previously I'd used Boots Protect and Perfect - similar price when both on offer. Boots P&P lasted 8-10 weeks; Avon lasted 5 weeks max. :mad: ) Can I return it even though it's now nearly empty i.e. because it's definitely NOT good value for money?

Had some family probs overtake my life.. Help! Have my second delivery due in morning. Requested replacement lipstick (mentioned this before in post but not had time to do anything and forgotten) have printed returns form, parcelled lipstick with enclosed form to give to carrier. On invoice online no replacement lipstick listed and it says stored by the replacement bit! Should i still give lipstick to carrier in morning ? Soz for being a plank!

have they stopped doing the solutions toner???? i havent seen it in the last few books and me and my mum love it. cheap, strong but does the job lol does anyone know what the alternative is? i dont want to pay 4 quid for a pack of 8 wipes or anything lol. bring back the 99p toner!



also in my first camp i ordered 'avon solutions hydrofirming virtual lift serum' in HT it was in clearance so im guessing its an old product anyway but does anyone know a good alternative to this? i love it..its like the little solutions 'boost serum' except you put it on in the daytime before makeup and its lovely. xx

Good morning everybody,

it's delivery day today, but for some reasons i can't stay all day in at home. Could you please let me know if there is a way to rearange delivery for tomorrow or is it possible to contact the courier and to find out the time they are goint to deliver my order?

Hi asaryte

You could phone your courier company and find out when your expected delivery is as the driver plans the route the day before. If you aren't going to be in, you could ask them to deliver to a neighbour or a safe location or another rep close to you. This is what my courier does.
