you are buying clearance items to give as free gifts to your customers for spending over £10, aren't you?

You're allowed to do this arent you?! If not I'll be in trouble in my first week of avon lady-ing

Aromadisiac

let me know if she does like any of these. Not sure if you can samples for all. BUT we always suggest they buy the full size bottle and if they don't like it, send it back for a credit. Chances are they will.

Thanks very much Aureol. Have got an Aromadisiac from when it was half price, so may suggest she treats herself.

This creative ordering lark is a bit of a headache! Hubby has just got back from collecting brochures and has picked up another order.:j

I have been entering all the orders as I go, but have had to check each order to the previous brochure to make sure we aren't missing out on anything! Is that what everyone else does? Now I am paranoid that I have missed something from the order and am going to have to check everything off to make sure.

yep! I sit with both brochures and compare prices, offers, etc! And with HT too! Both copies! It's blooming hard work!

Oh no, I hadn't thought about HT for the last order. I am going to have to go and check those books now as well!! Thanks for reminding me!

Haha yes, it gets easier with practice as you'll find the items in the brochures quicker. I jot down on a post it note any items that will be ordered from a different brochure or HT and stick it onto the front of the order form, as I sit and check my orders one day, then enter them online another day.

Just checked the two HT brochures and found that one of my orders from a friend of a friend is actually in one of the gift sets in HT. I wasn't expecting that and was only really checking for the last order I received! I bet I have missed something and I don't know how other people do it for loads more orders, we only have a few customers and it is a nightmare just checking those orders!

you get used to it. It does get easier, and sometimes just looking through HT and books before you key orders, triggers the memory that you saw something that someone was buying cheaper or on offer.
