well ive posted my first brochures yesterday, will collect on monday and im really excited to see if anyone orders anything. I will be gutted if no one does the amount of time i spent on them what with welcome notes and free samples with each one. Fingers crossed

P.S how do you get that bottom bit on your messages that says what your campaigns were??

Put it as your signature, to do this you need to go to your personal details, not sure the quickest way, but i click on my private message bit!

Fingers crossed for you, but don't be too disappointed if you don't have all that many orders as people take time to get used to you.

To get to the bit on the bottom of the posts (the signature) just go into 'user CP' at the top of the Forum screen then go to 'Edit signature' on the left hand side.

Some advice.
Since this is my first time, I've had a gander through the Brochure 8 and there are so many fab things in it that I'm having difficulty picking what items to highlight to my customers.
Can I have some suggestions on good deals and or great products etc that would be worthy of highlighting on my first canvass?

Best bet is to highlight affordable items - the 99p stuff, cheap perfume (£6 or less) as some people won't have seen a brochure in ages and so think the stuff is expensive or Avon only sell make up - if you can get people buying their everyday essentials from you like shower gels and deoderants etc it will mean they repeat order regularly.

Well one of our lowest campaigns £155 in orders actually resulted in £60 profit due to creative returns and ordering

Well done, deanos. Sounds a huge saving on an order of that size. Hope you didn't lose out re. the commission rate.

I love creative ordering too; surprising how many reps don't bother though. I showed one of my newbies how she could benefit and initially she was delighted but then she decided not to bother! Doh! No accounting for some. I persevered, earning her extra commission and 6 free products last campaign, and unbelievably she didn't bother again this campaign. :mad: One item ordered in the current campaign is £16 but £12 in the back campaign. Have again helped her by pointing it out but after this she's on her own.

I know this will sound like a stupid question but should I give out the Smarter Women's Secret with Camp 9 brochure? I have read it on the back of the leaflet but there has been little mention of it on here so just thought I would double check, as I wouldn't want to miss out. I personally think these items are a really good deal and I think some of my customers will too. The Spectralash mascara has been one of my biggest hits. Has anyone had much success with these?

Yeah you can return stuff from HT just the same as from the brochures.
