    don't worry hun, about the only reason that people get refused by avon is if they've done it before and left owing avon money. Other than that, I've had people with ccjs get accepted, and mil can't even get a proper bank card that can switch cos her credit rating is so poor, but avon accepted her so don't worry!

    Ok phew thank you so much xx

  • Had to giggle at the brochure amendments on my invoice ....

    Brochure 3, page 92, Solutions Cellu-Sculpt
    Due to a clerical error the description of the claim has been printed incorrectly. The correct description should read: Help lose up to ONE AND A HALF INCHES off each thigh with regular massage.

    The books says 11 and a half inches!!!

    Hi everyone, went out last week to pick up my C2 brochures, i got 4 orders from my territory and the rest was from F&F! thank god for them!!
    i was going to ask for a bigger area but i'm moving house in the next month to the other end of town so will ask for it then, but i dont want them to give away my current streets, some of my customers have said they have really bad luck with avon, some have even placed orders with other reps and then never had them back (so im trying to be super reliable so they start to put more orders in when they trust im not going to leave them hanging!) so to the point lol - if i do ask for more streets closer to where i will be living will they take my my current streets away? x

    In addition to lozza's comments, the success of being given extra streets (if they're available, of course) will depend on your sales levels i.e. if/whether/by how much you're exceeding your targets. (Your SL can give you more info as to what they actually are.) If you think that may be a problem, another option could be to keep whatever customers you have on your territory now as F&F and then request the new streets when you move at the same time offering to relinquish your old ones and/or the ones, which are not very successful for you. ;)

    Good luck!

    :mad: My C1 was really late because of the weather. By the time it came a heap of my customers had gone away for Xmas and New Year. So I credited the items I couldn't deliver, and thought I would just wait for them to be re-invoiced then pay for them. Problem solved? Well, yes, except that Avon have taken My Smart Start gifts away for it for 3 and 4th campaigns because they took the credits off, and thus I am now not eligible for the one for 5th and 6th. My entire returns since starting Avon only come to £72 for things that are actually going back. I'm sure they just do it to dishearten you. They don't give much for the effort you put in, the free gifts may not be much but they help. Oh well, no need to rush around hard selling for C3 next week now then! What they get, they get! Had been worried about the short campaign anyway!

    Rant over! hope we are all well today. Still waiting for my delivery.... normally here before lunch, so wasting some time on my pc to avoid housework while baby is sleeping!
    Still looking for the plot...... Anyone seen it???

    I have been a rep for 6 months and would really like to become an SL, what worries me is that I have been asking my ASM for more territory for the last few months and he finally sent me some details last week but I know the area is already covered by another rep (the same rep who does the other half of my village, which I found out when she called me after my ASM saying that the village wasnt covered!!), I have told him this and am waiting for him to come back. If there isnt any territory how can I sign Reps up with new territory also does it take up a lot of time as I work full time.

    Any help would be hugely appreciated.

    Happy New Year 'A'.

    Could've misunderstood but your Smartstart 'rewards' in your 5th and 6th campaigns are totally independent of whatever you did in your 3rd and 4th campaigns. If you hit HOV in both C5 and C6 you should get your vanity case. (If it's any consolation, the expander file is not exactly brilliant but if you really want one you could always buy it for £2.)
