Avon Hints and Tips (Part 4)

lucyclare

Finally after a about 45 minutes of faffing around, I have managed to get vistaprint to send me 100 free postcards (well £1.74 actually) for the fergie C10 with a photo i scanned in. Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

With a car decal, t shirt and free stamp thrown in, all for less than £9.00 delivered. It would have cost me more than that in printer ink if Id done the postcards myself and they wouldnt have been quite so nice and glossy.

hip hip hoooraayyy for Vista print. Off to the fridge for some more patience.

Hello, this is the end of my 2nd Campaign and I have had an order from the 'secret smart woman's book', but when I input it onto my order online, it says 'this product cannot be ordered in the selected campaign'. My SL said I should be able to order stuff from there intil C10? Any ideas?

Is it correct that Avon are cutting their commission rates on smaller orders for some reps ?

Pretty sure I mentioned earlier in the thread, I also got a few orders from that pamphlet (I put them out with my C8) and when I couldn't input them I rang Avon to be told that they were actually re. C9 Fingers crossed that's correct although why they quote a C7 reference on the back I've noooo idea!

Sorry, no idea but hopefully someone more knowledgeable will be along shortly to confirm or not.

The commission rate was downgraded slightly for everyone in January when VAT returned to 17.5% from 15% i.e. back to 20% and 25% - previously we'd been getting slightly more thanks to Avon giving us the benefit of the reduced VAT rate.

i dont know about reps but i do know they are cutting the comission rate for sales leaders!

Yeah theres no change for reps, but they are reducing commission rates slightly for sales leaders, on low value orders from reps.

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?

Speaking just for myself here, but I shall be pushing the items from it in C9 then ordering from the SWS booklet instead of the brochure - MagiX is £7 rather than £10 in the brochure and you get a free nail varnish

what reason do i put tho...i wasnt intending to try and sell them just for demo purposes?
thank you

Would suggest 63, 64 or 65. You obviously cant use things like 'unable to sell' as you're not supposed to sell them anyway I always find 65 'some other reason' is a good catch-all

Great idea Ellibee! Think I'll be trying that
