    as we know that 80% that try, go on to buy

    Wish they could tell my customers that :D

    Once again I will be sampling all my customers, offering a one off price for one campaign only of £13 for the set. Unfortunately, I struggle to sell much by way of perfume so I expect the 3 money makers I am buying will be sent back :(. Still, nothing ventured...

    There is a note on the C7 invoice to say that it is not coming back, but tell them by all means, but still order them for the free nail varnish. its not often Avon actually send apology gifts for customers, so make the most of it.

    In your C8 you will find that the Anew concealer is half price at £5. Not much help to you on your first order, but handy to know.

    Thanks for your suggestion lucyclare, so without meaning to sound daft here, I order as normal, they send me nail polish as an apology but does that mean my friends get a credit or I just don't take the £5 off each of them for the concealer when I collect my money? Sorry not long got up and brain isn't quite functioning yet.

    I wish they would tell mine as well. I did Spotlight samples for all my customers. The only person who bought a Spotlight was a new customer who hadn't had a sample.

    Yup, tell them that it is out of stock. :(
    Include it on the orders anyway :cool:
    You will get the nail varnishes for free.:T
    You will eventually get two alternative concealers in c9 or c10 (just return them if you want)
    Collect payment from your customers (less £5.00) and suggest the fab new Anew concealer in C8 point out what a favour you have done them really! Along with the beaty bonus on Anew in C8 :):j

    Invoice says 'Please note we are unable to supply the above product'. (Jillian Dempsey prof concealer). 'From May we will send an Invisible Light Concealer as an alternative product. This will be invoiced at the relevant Invisible Light Concealer price where this is lower than Jillian Dempsey Concealer'.

    Well then, today is D day for me.

    Order gets sent tomorrow. Just over the £500 mark on C8 and best bit yet!!!

    Got another party tonight. Dont think that it will hit the £370ish the last one did, but a tidy £200+ would be rather good.

    Fingers crossed for me. My car has to have a new drivers side window this morning (stupid man's fault) Ive got a filthy cold, But hey, Thursday is another campaign and just when will I ever get to see my C7 SL statement. Its my birthday next week and im more excited about my SL statement. Real Saddo !

    Last order I had item which had free concealer. Ordered it in medium and low and behold it oos so they sent light. I rarely get any subs but why would someone want a light concealer instead of medium!!!
    I have never met a calorie yet I didn't like!!

    Hi all, I'm a newbie to Avon. Have just received my second delivery but have a what would you do question to ask!

    One of my customers ordered an Anew serum from camp 7 for £20 but I ordered it from camp 6 for £16 making myself £4 profit but it is now on offer in camp 8 as a when you buy you get a free beauty bonus. Would you point this out to her and offer to return and reorder or see if she says anything?

    Thanks x

    Well after this post I delivered the order and explained to my customer that it was on offer again this time and that I was happy to return and reorder. She was happy with her purchase and has indeed bought another product to get the free beauty bonus!

    Thanks for all your advice. This forum is fab :)
