    hi Ladies,

    I have read a few posts about selling avon stuff at boots slaes. I was thinking about buying some clearance stuff and selling them there. My dilemma is I read in the HT that the clearance items are not for sale to customers- does this mean I cant sell them there? Any of you ladies sold at a car boots before? I hope I can recruit there as well have signed up to be SL although it's my 2nd campaign. I have not done very well. And any tips would be really appreciated. Thanks everyone!:)

    My final total for C9, just ordered was £266 :j:j I'm so pleased with that, considering my first was £35.

    I have great hopes for C10 now, the first books went out tonight, so fingers crossed :)

    To the Avon rep who canvassed one of my best customers recently:
    I am very sorry that you were assigned/chose to canvass one of my customers. I have been serving this customer for over four years. You will find that you come across folks who already have an avon rep. Either ask them to take your number in case they need it for the future or back off. DO NOT tell my customer that they must not place any more orders with me. DO NOT tell my customer that any orders they place with me wont be delivered. Hopefully our ASM will explain how unprofessional you are and how stressed my customer is. Butt out!

    Feel much better now but how dare she?
    Please do not quote spam as this enables it to 'live on' once the spam post is removed. ;)

    If you quote me, don't forget the capital 'M'

    Wow, even as a newbie I know that's not on. I've had a few people saying they have a rep from work, or a family member does it, as well as being given areas that other people are doing. I've just crossed them off my list and written 'Other Rep' so I know not to go back.

    Very well said Money Maker :T:T The only time my "patch" has been trespassed was when my ASM told another rep to :mad::mad: soon got it sorted though :D

    There's been an influx of new customers at work this last month :j another rep somewhere in the building must have quit. 2 new customers last campaign and 4 already this campaign and still 13 days to go, £116 orders already and haven't collected any territory books yet :T

    Well, I got a reply of sorts from Avon this morning re the survey I received yesterday:

    Thank you for your recent email.

    Avon appreciates the time taken to contact us regarding your comments and we value your feedback. We always endeavour to improve the service provided to our Representatives.

    We have taken your comments on board and these will be reviewed accordingly.


    Should you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.


    How can you reply to an email and completely ignore the original question :rotfl: As Avon don't want to tell us whether or not this survey is genuine, I suggest that if you receive it, then you delete it pronto. This one isn't from the Polish source and is about payments - I think not!!!!

    Yes Elliebee, I have noticed that there are some really good people, who read the email and reply to the salient points and others who quote generic info at you which is not what you asked for otherwise you would not be emailing them!

    There is nothing on my account about an email about payments, it does say that surveys are being sent out by the Polish gentleman who works for Avon in Poland.

    Money Maker, :eek:, think this "Rep" and I use the term loosely, should quit while she is ahead!

    How dare she go around threatening or scaring people like that! That is so unprofessional!

    Maybe she should become a bodyguard, sounds like a better suited job for her.
