  • Hey Guys! Hope you're all having a lovely day!

    Well my Avon bags finally arrived and I have all my of my C11 books packed and prepped for my first ever drops...feeling a little nervous, hopefully my confidence will be boosted after my first campaign.

    Really wish I had my printer here to include some little note asking people if they actually want to recieve a book. I think I'll have to dig out my printer from my parents house, fingers crossed I'll also find some ink somewhere!

    Trying my best to feel optimistic! I CAN DO THIS!!! :j

  • Well i have the full range of properites in my territory! I got some very large, very nice houses, you know the ones we can only dream off! I have one customer there, then another street is a very mixed road of bungalows, some old, some young. I have 6 customers there, half 60-70 and other half 30-45. Then my estate is mostly under 40's and that is 6 customers. I have my regulars that will order every campaign and i offer a free gift with every order over £20 and 3 of them always order this to get their free shower gel!

    Wow...sounds like you have a fab territory. Did it take you long to build up your base of customers? Did you go door knocking or just pop them through the letterbox at first? How many houses do you do altogether?
    Everyone loves a bargain :beer:

    That's two of us then :beer: I have been prepping my brochures today with the hope of getting them out (think I am going to have to do it tomorrow though or maybe even Saturday morning...somehow, very busy weekend ahead!!!) Have done a little note up but as to whether people will even be bothered to read it or not. I think that people either browse pretty much anything you put through their door or bung it straight back out where it came from. Hopefully my territory will all do the former but I must admit I am not feeling too optimistic either. We will have to let each other know how we get on :j Good luck.x

    good luck to both of you, hope you both get lots of orders :D

    I need to get my books out but my son has a temperature and just wants to cuddle on the sofa. Not sure if he will make the journey if I do try to take him out.

    Gosh, I hope round 2 of books fairs better than the first! Out of 14 collected, no orders. Re-dropped them all this morning, fingers crossed that street will be more favourable! Going to do my first delivery in a bit, I hope it goes okay! It's only 4 houses, but I'm excited to see cash, hahaha.

    Yes C10 was rubbish for me too. But on a good note - C11 is looking like a good one!:j

    Well after Aureol kindly found my DSM's email for me, I wrote an email a few days ago and not had a reply there with. So I've decided my face obviously doesn't fit and I'm not going to bother with F&F either. So I'm returning what I've got and just binning the books.

    Hope it goes well for the rest of you xxx
    Moving onto a better place...Ciao :wave:
