Just a heads-up that the avon website upgrade is happening tomorrow so the site won't be available for a few hours during the day...

I'm relieved it's happening today - after submitting my C9 yesterday. Gives them plenty of time to iron out the creases before my next one. Sorry, being selfish there. I hope those of you on later mailplans (i.e. most of you seeing as mailplan A went in yesterday) don't suffer from teething problems.

Yesterday I noticed it wasn't saving orders (adding them to the list of saved products below). I do mine one order form at a time, pressing view description then save before moving onto the next sheet. Most went in fine but when I ran through the saved list a couple just hadn't been added. Second time it worked.

Off to prep yet more books. Did about 100 yesterday to get a new area covered in a campaign. Doing current brochures for my reliable regulars now...

Phew, since Xmas my orders have not even made MOV but C9 has been my best all year, I hit HOV so am chuffed. On another note, I only had one visit from a SL when I first signed up then she disappeared as she was so terrible. All she did was just read from her manual, no advice on how to order etc. Over the past two years I have only had communication with my ASM who is fine but no SL. I did however back in January have an email from a lady who said hi and to let her know if I needed anything. No details on the email, nothing. So I replied asking who she was and I haven't heard a thing since lol, so I just meander along on my own. To any of you who are feeling a little jaded do continue as things will improve.

Am getting more and more jittery about the website as the hours tick by ... my order goes in on Friday. I got some orders before it went down, but made the decision not to put them on as I had visions of them disappearing after the upgrade.

I really really really hope its a success!!!! I'm at work but am going to log in after 3pm to see if it works. I put a couple of bits on for me on Tuesday and had loads of problems with it either not saving stuff or crashing in the middle of me entering stuff.

I was right - C9 is a bit rubbish, about a third down on what I usually do.

My order is due in tomorrow so the site changes better be smooth! :eek: I too had visions of my order disappearing, so I've just stuck my admin stuff on and left it at that for now.

Depends on your courier, its worth checking with him/her when they finally turn up if that time will be their regular time, and if not if they can give you an idea of what will be their regular time. My courier runs the same route every time, so they should be able to give you an idea.

Website is back up, I'm going to have a play (can you tell I've been very very quiet at work today?!!)
