Morning All,
Just after a little advice - how long after a campaign ends can you order from the brochure?
Many thanks

You can backorder one campaign only SiannieLaz.

So if you are on C3 now, you can backorder for C2, but when you finish C3, you will only be able to backorder on C2, if you put C3, as an additional order, and then use the drop down menu to select C2. I would only recommend this if your customer is prepared to pay the £2.50 delivery charge or you have enough orders to qualify for the minimum order value, which is what I did yesterday. Luckily had enough orders for C3 and C2 to make money on both orders. And I had a customer who wanted something from C1 and this was the only way I could backorder it for her.

little update from me (dont get chance to come on very often sorry x)

Ebay was a waste of time - not a sniff no way can I compete with the reduced prices on there so they are going back to avon. No extra orders from my recanvass but wont give up not yet!!!!

Got a few orders ready for C3 - cant wait for the snow to go so I get to see more of my custs as I cant drive to them with the roads at mo (have them through a group I attend and has been cancelled last two wks due to bad weather)

Many thanks, I started Avon just before xmas and my SL has been no help at all so I'm feeling a bit lost, and have not really got going. I was led to believe that he would sort out my 2nd campaign brochures, but he didn't and so I was late ordering C5, which haven't yet turned up over a week later. At least I can still order from it when it does get here!

I did a recanvass of two roads and picked up a new customer but typically she misread the voucher offer and has ordered a free eyeliner. Toying between letting her have it free or at a reduced price of £3.85 from HT.

Your SL is supposed to give you 20 books of your first 2 campaigns free. Unless it has changed and I haven't read it yet.

So are you on C5 now? I have just finished C3 and starting C4.

What books do you have at the moment?

Hi SiannieLaz! You can order from two campaigns at the same time. eg order from current book 3 and back order at same time from book 2. Next time order from current book 4 and back order from book 3. Hope that helps.

Mortgage offer vouchers have shown up automatically, yeh!

BUT: order total shows £144 and does not include the vouchers as it should be £184 without them. Is my HOV ok?

Yes I'm sure it is, but I think it's while stocks last though. At work and my books are at home so can't check though.

Hi all,

Sorry, know this has been raised before but whilst delivering a (Betterware :rolleyes:) order today I was approached by someone, who wants to become an Avon rep. Am on my 7th campaign now so feeling 'quite au fait' with it so am seriously considering becoming a SL. Have emailed my SL asking her to come across and get the ball rolling....

Meanwhile, any tips for what I should watch out for i.e. am wondering whether she may want to just add this newbie to her team and discourage me from becoming a SL (or is that a stupid thought)? (Previously she's mentioned advertising for new reps for me - quote "when I'm ready" but it always seems to be me mentioning it and not a lot actually happens.)

Could be wrong and this may now steam ahead - just wanted to bounce it off the 'professionals' on here for any/all comments.

Thanks!
