    Which brings me on to my question - has anyone ever stopped doing a part of their territory,

    Actually I was expecting to have to do this in order to get more streets, last time I asked. I remember saying "If you need me to give up some streets I have some in mind" - although I'm happy to keep doing them for now and the ASM was happy just to add some extra ones on. There's no harm in ringing your ASM and explaining. On the one hand I'd have thought they would be happy to have some free streets to give out to new reps. On the other hand - if they can give you extra streets but want you to keep this useless one - you could re-canvas it once or twice a year so it's nowhere near as much work as it is now.
    I used to have my Avon turnover (sales) here. They've been removed because it's not appropriate to talk about those kinds of sales as if they're realistic for a new Rep to aim for. :( I signed up at the right time, right place, and was very lucky.
  • Hi
    I called Avon today to find out my credit limit after seeing the posts on connects and the man told me it's 323 brochure price for the first campaign. I asked him if that meant it didn't take my comission into account and he didn't know what I meant so I gave up.
    I would of thought that if my limit was 323 then I could go over that on brochure price as it would take my comission off and bring it down?
    Can anyone here help me please?

    Hi, I'm sure this is probably a self-evident question, but here goes!

    If someone orders the Antler Bag for £10 plus the qualifying products, but then returns some or all of the make up, would they have to pay the usual price of £30 for the bag?
    A customer wants the bag and wants to try some of the make up for the first time and is asking if she returns any products within the 90 days will she be charged full price for the bag.

    Thanks, Ness.

    I would say that if the guy told you that it's £323 brochure price, that would be brochure price; so £242.25 your price (as £323 is over HOV)

    Our greatest weakness lies in giving up; always try just one more time

    No, She'd just be sending the make up back and getting refunded for that. I'm always wary if people ask things like that - always sounds to me like their planning on returning things anyway, but maybe I just think the worst of people :o

    That's what I would have thought too :D

    Just looking at HT12 on t'interweb and having a giggle at the "new" Interchangeable Holiday Bracelet.

    Is it me, or is this "new" product actually:
    A pink bead from the recent pink treasure bead set
    A white bead from the Christmas treasure bead set
    A blue bead from (possibly) the nauticaly bead set

    ...... and some bits of coloured cord. Inventive use of old stock, Avon!!!

    Hi guys,

    I'm just back from the most amazing holiday and trying to get back into my Avon big style now...since I got engaged when we were away!

    Unfortunately I'm losing one of my customers 'cause she's changing job but I have got one back that signed up to be a rep and then changed her mind...so she's back buying from me now!

    I'm managed to just about hit HOV which is good - order to be in tomorrow. Have to go collect from a lady in my street tonight so fingers crossed she's ordering too!
