Hey can you change the delivery address for just one campaign?? Do you just add a new delivery address?

The free Gift Guide should have come automatically with your C16 books. It is a christmassy looking book.

I didn't have any! Maybe it's because this is only my second campaign, so my SL brought my brochures over.

Heylo.. you should have your couriers number written down somewhere??!! Also, i havent got a "safe place" either, the ASM who signed me up has a greenhouse in her garden for a safe place for all her reps to use if needed, has your asm or SL got anywhere like that??

I have just emailed my ASM to see if she knows of anywhere or anyone nearby that could be my safe place. I don't expect much from her though as the last time I received an email from her, it was two lines and one of those was to say she was on sick leave at the moment.

I just want it sorted that they either just deliver a bit later in the day or if they can't do a bit later on the normal day, then I don't mind waiting a couple of days if I know in advance.

C16 is my second campaing too, my SL brought it to me but with the thin Christmas brochure too. I have put all my C15 books back out and all my C16 and Christmas books - wanted to re-use the C15 even though hit the target for the campaign for the freebies etc on that one, but made sure I got all the C16's out too - figure it may be confusing for me if I don't keep strict tabs on it but I want to hit the targets to get the freebies.

Is anyone having any Avon parties? I am thinking of doing some at my home for friends/family - try to drum up more business.

And what about the free item thing - like order over £10 and get a free eye/cheek/lip pencil - if one customer orders one product costing £6 and another customer an item costing £6 that together qualify for the free gift my SL has said to order the freebie and either use it as a free gift or for my kit - but what happens then if one of the 2 customers wants to return their item - I'd only have one item and (maybe) the freebie to return? Would you just take the hit yourself in those circumstances given you had a freebie item anyway? Can't see Avon refunding the one item minus the other item and minus the free gift?!

Just been out to collect brochures and only got 3 out of 10 back!! I need them for my other customers!! Need to get them trained better! lol. Just had a lovely lady phone me to say she has just been to her son's house and noticed he had just thrown a brochure to the side. She said she knew we had to pay for brochures so wanted me to get it back, didnt want to tell her it will be an old brochure so im going to pick it up tomorrow.

I got 26 out of 37 back today. I left some notes in letter boxes saying that I would be back tomorrow. Hopefully I will get some more back.

I have only lost a few books so far but I have not long started - I have been highlighting the collection date on the form and have typed out a covering note that I put around the book inside the bag with the pick up date in bold marker pen - am thinking then that even if they don't look at the book they know when to leave it out - if they don't leave it out I knock the door, if they aren't in I put a note through saying when I will be back - one of the books I lost through my own fault - I forgot to pick it up....oooops. Mind you it was going to be my 3rd attempt! Maybe they just wanted to keep book on the coffee table looking pretty? Hope so as then they won't mind my failure to collect!

My sales leader came today and sorted me for my first campaign.

I had a few queries maybe you can help.

She said because I lived in a student area she wouldn't recommend canvassing because they wouldn't be in or might not give brochures back? I still think it's worth doing at least a few houses as I know there are a few houses with a few girls living in them that might be interested.
I'm thinking I'll call round in person and ask if they are interested in seeing the latest Avon products?

Also, is delivery estimated? Or can you give a certain time? I'm just worried in case I do get a job and I miss the delivery in my second campaign.

Thanks!

Hi everyone! I have been lurking since Friday and so pleased to have found such a friendly forum that will hopefully help me with my new AVON venture!

My SL came round this evening and gave me a very rushed and fairly brief introduction. Unfortunately she did not go through the leaflet mentioning the freebies that you get if you hit certain targets in your first 6 campaigns and unfortunately the leaflet does not does not have any figures of the amounts you need to hit before getting the freebies. Can any of you help by letting me know the amounts for campaign 1 & 2 at least please?

Can't wait to get to know you all and help out where I can!

Does anyone know if avon does any ladies deoderants other than the roll ons?

Thanks
