~Avon Hints & Tips (Part 7) ~

Yes, really appreciate the regulars. Especially as it takes quite a while to train them to leave books out on mondays...

Really cross with myself. Finished dropping C4/3 and thought I ought to check an old box which should have been empty. Course it wasn't, had a whole load of C4 sale leaflets - grrr. Out I go again, all round my C4's to drop off these leaflets (C3's will just have to take their chances on availability next month). Wonder what my customers will think!

Could anyone tell me how additional orders arrive - courier or Royal Mail?

My order was only a few small items so it doesn't need a big box. I ordered it last Tuesday and thought it might have turned up by now. No-one will be in tomorrow so I'm going to stick a note to the door saying to leave in the recycling bin. Might have to leave the note there on Friday - husband's in, I'm not, and he probably won't hear the door from his office.

Depends to be honest on how big/heavy the order will be. Small orders will probably come in the post, anything heavy by courier which means it depends when the courier is in the area for when its delivered.

hellooooooooooooooooooo quick question... oh wait... ive forgotten what i was going to say lol

Edit: Remembered just as i pressed post reply! LMAO!

I sent back LOADS of excess stock with the courier just before xmas, however in my last invoice it told me that i still had all of those products to return and to do so before jan 30th... is there a way i can check online to see if they have been recieved??

Hi lullypops

no, email them through contact us and ask them to send you a detailed list of what has been returned and what is owed. Also tell them the barcodes of the items you returned via courier, and they can check and update your account. They will post you out a list of credits and still to be returned items.

Haven't been on for a few days so it may have already been discussed but has anyone noticed the increase in price of several products?

Off the top of my head, Bond Girl has gone up from £16 (normal brochure price) to £17.50 (normal brochure price), Far Away from £12 to £13, illuminating face pearls from £8.50 to £9 and we spotted quite a few others whilst looking thru today. Only 1 of my customers has mentioned it to me so far tho xxx

I noticed many items had gone up from a few pence to a pound (didn't spot the huge increases on perfumes, though). As well as VAT, there is generally a New Year price increase although some products go up when they repackage and relaunch them.

Just wanted some advice if anyone can help, I have started my new territory and have used a tick box to ask if they are interested in further brochures. Have not had the best repsonse probably 1 in 10, the only thing is those who have not ticked the sheet I have just classed as no. When I knocked for a few that had not been left out and asked would they like to receive further brochures they said no so have gone on the assumption that others do not. Do you think I should keep posting brochures until told not too do so or just continue as I am. Any help would be greatly appreciated. :T

We did have a message through online that there would be some brochure increases to correspond with VAT increase.

Thankfully it's not that often items are full price, even if they are there's usually some offer a freebie. As said above it'll be a combination of vat and the general price increase.

Well pleased, sign 2 people so far this camp and got 2 more to join which is a record for me, most I've managed before is 2 in one camp lol. Hopefully it's a sign this will be a good year

Still not got a working shower though been a month roughly now, oh stepdad is helping him fit the last bit this Friday so touch wood it'll be working then! Fed up of baths now!
