Well I managed to collect 13 of the 18 books I delivered. 3 don't want them anymore, 1 still wants to look at the book and 4 weren't in (well, one was cause I could hear her little girl shouting but she never answered the door) so going back tomorrow to fetch those. And I had a grand total of 1 order for £2.50! But I got a text message later in the evening from someone saying her mum had given her my number and could she have a book! She only lives a few streets away so I took her one round. She texted half an hour later to say she had done her order so I'm collecting it tomorrow.

Have sorted my books out with new notes in and taking them out tomorrow. Hopefully I'll get the extra ones from my SL soon to make it a bit easier. So in total now I have orders of £19. Got the one to fetch tomorrow and also one from my neighbour.

I got the Anew cream as well as I hit the HOV. But I also ordered the £20 samples pack and it paid off as people really liked the fragrance samples. I'm also going to order some more of little black dress samples to go in with catalogues on new territory as they are very popular with existing customers so might push up sales.

MC - How did the party go last night?

When you give the samples out do you just put them in the bag with the brochure? Or do you have specific customers you'd give them to? Do you find that they encourage people to buy?

Went to fetch the extra brochure I gave out and she's ordered £40! So have chosen a 'free' gift for her as her order was above £20. Took the books back out and have finally covered 1 half of 1 street. Which reminds me, am going to contact SL about the extra books.

Where are you MC, we're all waiting to hear how you got on last night. I'm assuming you're probably exhausted from adding up the total of all your orders! Hope it went well, you certainly put in enough effort.

I have a party booked for Tuesday night. I have agreed with the hostess that for sales over £100 she gets 10% and for sales over £200 she gets 15% to spend in brochure.

This is my first party so have ordered extra items out of C6 and some clearance items to sell. I also ordered some of the clearance Anew beauty bonus' as a raffle at £1 a ticket.

The customer is an avid Avon fan she has many items that can be seen and the customers are all regular customers with some newbies from outside of my patch.

I have extra brochures for the evening. She had 10 books and a pack of order forms for those that couldnt come on teh night.

Am I missing anything? She has approx 50 coming on the evening. Is this the right way?
