Also can I order early? I'm working on C16 - can I send the order before the deadline date?

You can send the order before the deadline date but if as far as I know, if you have further orders come in for C16 and add them to your original order you will be charged for P&P, which I think is £2.50

I've sent mine the day before the deadine date and I'm absolutely sure I've got all the orders in.

Someone with a lot more experience than me should be along soon though to tell you all the 'ins & outs' of the system!!

First order day today! All inputted last night & printed off today to double check i'd ordered everything. Found I'd managed to order two things slightly wrong - Advance Techniques Liquid Spray Wax and Pina Colada bubble bath. I think the wax I'd ordered from wrong book & dont know about the pina colada - all i could find was secret garden bubble bath on my order so thought I put numbers in wrong. Put in the two right numbers - but for some reason the pina colada hasnt gone on but the secret garden bubble bath has! Anyone know why? its not even the right size bubble bath so if it's been replaced by Avon why isnt a litre bottle replaced by a litre?!!

Well.. all but one of my orders have been sucessfully delivered.. unfortunately i was naughty and accepted cheques for 2 and my neighbour is paying me tomorrow but all at my own risk i guess!! I ended up oweing avon this time.. even though i took over £200 in sales!! lol

Is there anyway of getting business cards done? Is there a template to follow somewhere. I think business cards look professional.
The Avon connects site is a bit hard to follow. Or is it just me?

I got mine done on the Vistaprint website, they were free, just pay P&P

I had some really nice ones done through vistaprint, but I pay the extra to have a plain back, rather than the vistaprint advertising - small but still there.

Don't forget Quidco and Topcashback before ordering through vistaprint.

Use the Avon Connects 'find a Rep' facility - then you know you're getting someone who meets the Avon standard criteria.

Yes it would give them a rep - but not necessarily a SL so they wouldn't be able to join with them.

think there is a problem with the bubble baths numbers. Someone was asking earlier for the correct codes, but I couldn't find anything in my messages.

Thanks Joosh - is there a template to follow? Do you know?

Vistaprint does all the hard work for you, you just edit to put your details in where you want them. Although with different templates, the details appear in different places.

Also, if you want to change font style, size you can but can't remember if they charge you extra for editing.

You choose a pattern you like, it brings up the card with the template and a the layout of the wording and you edit. Then save, and ignore all the offers, and at end pay for slow p&p as cheapest but usually comes a lot quicker than it says.

Even more annoying the two products mentioned change between looking at my order & viewing the subtotal!!!

for Liquid Spray Way I put in code 13508 that should be £2.50 - on the subtotal page its code 41707 & cost £4.50
for the Pina Colada bubble bath 10660 that should be £2 for 1 litre - on the subtotal page its code 16055 & cost £1.50 for 500ml Secret Garden bubble bath

Has anyone else had this happen?

You can submit your order before your order due date but not sure if they still deliver on your normal delivery date or earlier.

If you have been tagged by your ASM as being C17, you will have to submit the C16 order under the C17 order, meaning when you want to submit the C17, you will have to do it as an additional order.

I did get your PMs, but have been at work all day, only read them at 5.45pm, on my way home very late. Supposed to finish work at 4.30pm.
