Any Avon rep who said that to me would certainly not get an order but the reply "Yes I do, and the products I buy are better than the !!!! you're trying to sell" (even if the products weren't better than Avon).

Must say that I would tend to agree with lincroft if I were not a rep. Anyone saying something like that to me or DH would have to move fairly quickly after!

Yes, as MM says, think that's a 'tad bordering on insulting'.... And, as I have really dry skin (prone to psoriasis) got to admit I find the normal shower gels and liquid soaps very drying. Recently picked up a shower creme in Clearance though and that's fine - wonder why Avon discontinued the creme versions?

On the other hand, lincroft, Avon do have some really good quality products at reasonable prices. Unfortunately, some people still have an outmoded view of Avon..... until they're persuaded to try it. The knack is making sure customers get a good deal; once they're hooked they tend to stay that way.;)

Hi, my discount is £21.89, I guess this is how much I earned???
The bottom line of my invoice says
Avon price Your cost Your discount
Campaign 11 order total £120.74 £98.85 £21.89

I am just confused that the total on my order forms from customers is £124.95. The £120.74 includes my £7.50 admin fee too, as stated before!!! I checked the book and all the prices are correct on the order forms compared to the books, so I did not make a mistake on the order.

Just catching up after a busy few days . . .

This sort of thing happened to me as well!

If you're still trying to make your order add up, or just curious, it might be because you had some fixed discount items in your order.
They're listed, with the discount that applies to each, in HT.

Hope everyone's C12 is going well. Mine is OK, but bracing myself for C13 which was a disaster the year before last (although fine last year). It comes right in the middle of the school holidays so a lot of people are away. Think I can feel a prize draw coming on...........:D

Does anyone have up to date info on the Bench Watch? One of my neighbours has placed her first high value order, and guess what, she wants the watch. The last time she ordered it was just a few bits from a clearance book and most of it was OOS!

I wonder, also, whether anyone still has the tips about how best to use the gyroscopic strength ball as I've had several ordered this time and would like to avoid getting them back!

I have 7 ordered. All on Green ticks and I send my order tomorrow night, Mailplan B. Want me to add another one on for you to be on the safe side. i can always send it back if you get yours?

C12 looking at £1200+ so far and a day to go!

Officially sold 31 Fergies now and one of my girls has sold 21 C10-C12!

Finally started selling lotus shield, have sold 5 already (paid and delivered and orders for 1!!!)
Have party booked for tuesday C13 so hopefully should do ok for me.

Awww! Lucyclare, that's really kind of you but I think I'll just take my chance. Aside from the hassle for you of having to post it, there is always the chance of it going missing in transit. Thanks anyway - really appreciated :beer:

Just placed my C12 order, all 10 Lotus Shields going back now. May hold return off until C13 delivery just in case... quite handy that they give you over a campaigns length in which to return your items once you've entered them online.

Been wondering about the Lotus Shield Money Maker i.e. initially they said it didn't qualify for the bonus scheme but then rescinded and said it did. I've only sold 2 of the 10 so far (2 x £5 = £10) so still have 8 left which actually, when invoiced next campaign, will now cost me £20 nett (10 x £3 = £30 - £10 = £20) IF I actually pay for them (£20) according to the bonus scheme I'll get £50 worth of free Avon products and still have 8 bottles of Lotus Shield to sell going forward and/or maybe return in a couple of campaigns time i.e. as 'surplus stock unable to sell'

Am I missing something or is that actually correct? :question:

wish id done the moneymaker!! Sold 15 lotus sheild and only ordered 5 on the MM ... including one to demo! then customers have ordered the frizz control shampoo and conditioner and the paddle brush too which coulda had free with the 10 pack! Ohhhh well!

Sales are right down.. on £611 and i submit c12 on thursday! Thats 2 camps in a row sales have been so low for me. Not a happy bunny! Acheiving silver level is getting to become more and more of a dream.

Getting very fed up of this all now though.. would love to take a holiday! But i cant cos as we all know you dont work you dont earn!

well done to all your girls doing well! Lots of hard work going into it i can see
