~Avon Hints & Tips (Part 7) ~

MandG

Good morning I'm afraid that I have been rather lax here lately but wanted to check that everyone knew this.

We now have to pay £2.50 postage and packing for additional orders. I may well be the last to find out about this but after querying the charge Avon confirmed it was correct.

A bit miffed as I haven't been charged before and it's hard enough to make money in the first place.

Anyhoo, off to catch up on all the Avon gossip and will make more of an effort to keep up with the thread.

Have a good weekend.

I thought there was always £2.50 on additional orders?

Recent charges have been introduced for small orders (under £10), and ordering on a paper order form.

I still can't view the online brochures, keeps asking for a password

Does anyone know/could anyone find out what the fixed discount is for the £20 silver oasis watch in C13? It's showing £0.00 discount on my subtotal. Thanks xxx

They've always been fine for me, but I'm having that problem now to for some reason.

Am going to try and find the links on connects - am doing a new thread, and it's a bit hard to add the links when I can't see the brochures!

Have started a new thread - first post is new and improved, but if anyone has any suggestions please let me know!

I can't add the HT links at the moment, i can't find any that work! If anyone can find some please let me know, a fuller explanation is on the new thread.

SLs are self-employed, just like 'normal' reps. The ones that do well from it are the ones that put most into it, presumably. I'm not sure how Avon are supposed to see in advance whether that will happen or not. If the upliner doesn't do her job as a Rep then she'll eventually lose her team that way, but beyond that you can't (and shouldn't in my view) do anything really. If AC helps the problem - and gives customers visibility of better Reps / SLs, then I'm all for it.

Didn't suggest Avon should be psychic but ineffective/'coasting' SLs harm both their up and downlines. Avon must be aware of this and AC may be helpful to some but am really hoping it's not their idea of 'an answer' i.e. rather than get involved to ensure effective training. When companies offer franchises (not far removed from the Avon system), they still keep an eye on things from afar via mystery shopping etc. Yes, AC is a start but really hope it's not considered a 'cure-all'.
