Hi everyone

Not sure if this has already been posted, here is the link for HT8:
http://www.e-pages.dk/uk_avon/283/

Just a suggestion, would it be possible to put all the links on the first page, like they were in the previous thread?
I would find it extremely helpful....Thanks x

Yeah sure I'll do it this weekend when I get chance. People will just have to send me the links to add as I don't use the online brochures.

I quite like the new roll on eye cream and haven't found it sticky at all. I probably use less of it than I do my regular eye cream which is a good thing. Did get the mm of it and the first one I tried didn't vibrate but another one did so hope it is just one dodgy one.

I have set up a small tester group amongst my customers to try and get them to try new products and hopefully place more orders. I gave them a questionaire to fill in regarding the type of products they wanted to try and colours etc. Then I give them something to try and they are supposed to write me a small review about it ( good or bad) so that I can either let other customers know if they ask about a product or hopefully when I have more reviews I will be able to email customers all reviews to encourage them to buy.
I give testers 10% of the product they are testing if they buy it so all are happy. Only early days but think it is working

Thanks for that. On one of the first few pages it said something about hair colourant coming soon. Now that sounds very interesting...

See flip flops are returning in black, too.

Well a different part of my area proved friutful and I have 3 orders from there already! really chuffed.
Although today I get a C4 book through the door from another rep! I phoned her up to say "erm this is my patch" and she "oh I'm sorry I didn't know it was being covered." so peed off! she said she got her husband to post books here, she tried to make out that he might have got the wrong road but I thought why are you sending your husband out? then she said "oh I like to introduce myself to people" and I thought why not go yourself then? Even so my team leader is furious and confirmed that she is an established rep who is trying her luck on this road.
Only got a few customers on this road but even so I don't want to put them off!

Hello

I'm not a rep but just popped on to say that when I placed an online order tonight at AvonShop, I was taken to a new page once my order was complete, which encouraged me to sign up to Avon Connects and get future orders from a rep.

I didn't sign up as I already order via my mum's rep though I also use online and/or ebay, if needed, whichever is most convenient. However I do appreciate our rep and always place a little order with her and thought it might be worth letting you know that Avon is encouraging signing up for reps through their online shop service. It is a new web page, at least, it wasn't there when I last made an order in Nov 2010.

Incidentally, mum's rep is not showing on Avon Connects so I will be letting her know as I wouldn't want her territory people to be going elsewhere!

I'm going to have to start checking connects now i never usually use it i dont know if anyone else on here does? i forgot about getting customers off it, everytime i have a question or anything i come on this!!
- I feel so behind you all have your C4 stuff out and orders in!! i dont get my books till friday (couldnt afford to order them last time)
any products in it worth pushing?

i liked the look of the roll on eye cream and i was going to order it next time but so many of you have said its not really good i'll give it a miss, i used to use the 'simple' roll on eye cream and thats good so i'll stick with it!

Morning!

Just after a bit of advice please from one of you lovely ladies

I placed my C4 order on Tuesday. C4 is my 6th campaign, and as I reached HOV on C3, I made sure I reached it again on C4 by ordering a couple of extra bits for myself, so I could get the SmartStart gift of a Vanity case and samples.
However a couple of items are unavailable, which has taken my order value just below the HOV. The fragrance samples are on my invoice, but not the vanity case Really disappointed, as it's not my fault the items are currently out of stock...
Is it worth me contacting Avon to query this?

Also, one of my customers ordered the Luxe Lace Manicure Set from the C1 Party Perfection brochure. Avon didn't send it as they said I didn't qualify, however I emailed them and they agreed that actually I did and they would send it within 5-7 days (that was mid December). I allowed time due to the postal issues and snow over Christmas, but still hadn't received it at the start of the year, so emailed them again and on 8th Jan, they said they would order it again and I'd receive it within 5-7 days....well guess what, still not received it. :mad: Any suggestions?

All you can do is keep on at them, I had the same issue with a necklace, I had to tell them a few times before they really did send it.

As for the vsnity case I wanted that too, so campaign 5 I ordered some extra's, but then I stupidly put some returns through so all they sent me was samples. If I were you I'd email them, like you say it's not you're fault the stock wasn't there for you.
