    Well some good news today, I hope.

    Was walking to bus stop for work, when I could hear a school kid behind me saying her male teacher had pulled her to one side and asked her to get him an avon book. She couldn't understand why he had picked on her as her mum didn't do avon and she didn't know where to get a book from. Guess who turned round and offered her one? fingers crossed I get a call over the weekend. Hope it is because of new fergie perfume.

    Went to work, all day training :( and met my old HR Manager, she is now freelance and is coming to my work, on the days I don't work, which is why I haven't bumped into her. She was telling everyone how hard I work at Avon and she has seen my updates on FB, anyway convinced her to buy day and night anew cream and eye cream from me!

    And she is having a jewellery party soon and has asked me to come along with avon books and my cards, etc, to promote myself at her event too!

    Someone is looking down on me. Just wish they would do the same for my Fiance.

    I hate returning as it means i loose earnings, if I can sell it on then it means I still earn something. Plus if they're brand new items a lot of the item Avon still have to chuck them, make up particularly, due to germs and they can't know for sure if somebody has used it or not, whereas I know if I've never delivered it. Plus it affects sales figures, and if it's returns on my account then I have to put more sales trough on my account to make up for it in order to be sure I'll earn from my team as otherwise Avon don't count you having put £148 of sales through if returns take you below that.

    Thanks, lozza, understand now. Sales have never been a problem to me (I don't earn much from Avon because I can't resist a bargain so I end up with lots of Avon product every campaign due to creative ordering). So, quite often, I don't actually lose earnings when I return items because I've never earned anything on them in the first place! :rotfl:

    ah right, speed reading as usual. Thought Elliebee meant she had posted and her posts were missing.

    Think everyone has been out enjoying the sunshine Elliebee! I wasn't! Had to take DS shoe shopping, haircut, avon deliveries and he chose today to be naughty.

    Morning all, and what a glorious morning it is here is (three times a year normally) north Wales.

    I did a pick up of books on Friday and guess what?! finally, on the 6th book Ive given out, I got an order from a customer who has never ordered before!

    She ordered the Fergie set as I had put in postcards and a sample attached to each one. Yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.

    Just goes to show, covering every house, every campagin does pay off! I shall be telling all team members to keep it up, you never know who might order on a whim!

    Loving it, went to Radio 1 Big weekend yesterday. it was hot and great. Son got his fingers stamped twice so off to A&E but today just black and blue and still too poorly to make me a brew!

    But I was a really good girl, and took Avon prospecting flyers with me :)

    Hope someone is looking down on me and smiling too!
    :T wealth is a state of mind :T
