Just a thought - to Aureol (and anyone else, who's far more up on this than me):

Can see the reason for the T&Cs and have no wish to contravene them at all but seems to me that it could really be useful to everyone subscribing to these Avon threads if we could somehow at least see more easily which parts of the UK are covered by subscribers.

My thought is if we started a new thread (and link it if poss), we could include a Poll with up to 10 questions. We could then 'vote' for which area we're in so at least people could use that as a route to find a rep and/or SL or see if there's likely to be one anywhere near without having to trawl through all our chatty posts....

Would that work do you reckon or would that also be contravening the T&C's?

PS: If needs be it could be worded as a sort of survey i.e. to see which areas are more popular or something. As usual, am not 'quite there' but as in the past thought if I suggested 'a start' then other brains more astute than mine could tweek it so it's helpful to us all without contravening the T&C's..... maybe......?

Hi MarsdenCuckoo.

This is what the site rules say on the matter.

" You are not allowed to advertise any goods, services and/or companies anywhere on the forum, or through private messages (PMs), no matter how honourable the intention.

'Advertising' includes touting for business; asking people to contact you; posting e-mail addresses which indicate a web address; linking to sites you or friends are involved in (whether you’re selling something or not), or to your eBay or other auction sales."

If the purpose of the other thread is just to promote local reps so people can purchase or join , and generally promote the company then it appears it would/could be in breach of site rules.

Suggest you discuss the issue with abuse and see what they have to say.

Hope this is of some help.:D

Well loving the new asm already emailed her last night asking if she could follow up on some territory I asked for when I started in May & also asked if she had any advice re parties (tester tonight & now have 3 further parties booked!!) and guess what!??
New asm replied early this morning saying she would like to come & see me nxt wk & sent me lots of word docs for the parties!

Makes you feel so much more valued when someone shows an interest and actually answers your questions doesn't it??!!

MC will go and look at your poll later. As it invites everyone interested on Avon cannot personally see any issues with it!

I had one of those magical Avon moments yestrday.

I had dropped all my customers a note saying that I was leaving for personal reasons, thanking them for their support and saying that although I wouldn't miss rain dripping down my neck, going out in the cold & dark in the winter, etc, I would miss them

Yesterday afternoon I delivered a last order to a customer who has been with me more or less from the start, although she didn't order every campaign, and after a brief chat she presented me with a bottle of wine & some chocolates together with a 'thank you' card saying I would be missed! How lovely is that

i have another question. a customer is ordering the anew foundation and mascara on the 2 for 15 deal. how do i make sure that goes through that way as there is only a code for the 2

pcpostie

if you just put the order in online and with the 2 codes then check subtotal they should correct it to the offer price x

is this c14 or C15?

whatever the code is for entering both, there should be one code, enter this. Save the order, enter number of customers, goto view order, goto view subtotal, and it should show as being on the offer. It might put the prices as £7.50 and £7.50.
