Morning, hoping someone can help. I am trying to put the link for C8 on my facebook page but it keeps giving me a message saying
" The use of JavaScript is turned off in the browser. JavaScript is needed in order to display the content of this page" How do I turn the Javascript on ?
Thanks

Still not regained my avon motivation from before christmas!!

Missed c7 completely with customers for personal reasons (so thats c2/c3 and c7 that ive not done this year!)... going to give them c7 in c8.. c8 in c9 and miss c9 then give them c10 in c10 finally!

Im STILL trying to contact customers to get their c4 orders too them too and im on c8 now!!!

Have started selling on ebay some old stock i had and bought some stock in cheap to try shift on there too as im a registered business seller....... mainly so my ASM didnt have a hissy fit at the fact i wasnt ordering - luckily it seems to be shifting... and ive made about 20% profit!! so about the same as trekkin the streets!

Thing is my sales are only around the 3k mark but that includes the £400 in stock ive ordered and will be returning should it not sell.... this time last year i was around the 6k mark as i just missed PC in camp 9! I'll be lucky to make PC at all this year!!

I am one them reps you all hate.... im PC but not recanvassed for ages... but still have my territory... i feel so so so so guilty so i apologise now on behalf of all us "lazy" reps...

Oh and just to make it worse found out last week one my best customers had had a massive house fire... her house is gutted. Really upset me!! Thankfully I know she is ok as i wrote a card saying how sorry i was to hear and hoped she was ok and posted it to her at the address hoping shed pick it up from wherever as i didnt have contact details for her and she did and she called me this morning.. BUT oh my gosh.. it really shook me up seeing her lovely house burnt out... it made me realise just how close ive got to some customers... about a year ago a customers husband died and i was so upset too! Some of my customers have become really good friends...... made me realise avon isnt just my job.... its my life. Even if i dont have the motivation at the minute.. i dont think i could give it up!

What's going on?? We nearly slid off the first page again! It's very quiet the last few days.... Am lacking enthusiasm at the minute with my avon. Doesn't help being in such a rural location. A village takes all day with the gaps between the houses!
Determined to get my act together though as I do enjoy doing it, and most of my customers are fab. How are we all doing with the Fit Flops?

I think we are losing interest in Avon missminx. I was thinking today about giving it up again. Just wondering if it is worth all the hassle for me for a few extra quid. I don't make loads and 2 of my biggest paying customers,I have lost. One moved and the other - her husband told her to curtail her spending.

Hi, just had one of my customers text saying to bring the order over at the weekend as her friend will be there to pay for her items too.... not too happy as they knew the delivery was this weekend past. So I text back asking if they could make it any earlier - no reply as yet! They will probably be not too happy but I don't want to wait the whole week particularly as it is £48 - £24 each.... and these are the customers who were asking for a free gift too on my first campaign.

collected books in today, only two orders so far but the first street I do is not good for orders anyway I know...

Do you have to pay Avon in a certain time limit after your delivery?

Aesop

Hi Don, you just have to make sure you pay them before the next submission date. They say 14 days on the invoice but they will allow you to put a main order through as long as you pay your bill before you submit.

ok, thanks for the info... will be cutting it a little close if have to wait until the weekend then because by the time I get to my bank (which is not very accessible grrrr!) to pay the money in - it will be close.

waiting on a new account opening up so I can get easier access to a local branch of a different bank.

Aesop

You can pay by debit card online, or by credit card over the phone if that is any help?

johanne

or claim credit for their orders...so you dont have to pay for it now.... and then when they DO pay you.. leave the "your cost" amount you claimed credit for in your bank account you use to pay your bill ..... dont touch it..... and thenin 36 days avon will recharge you for NOT returning the items and you just log in and pay if off the bill when they recharge you so your not out of pocket at any point.... and of course if they dont pay up... you just send the items back.
