~Avon Hints & Tips (Part 7) ~

Aesop

honeybee, it is not a silly question.

Avon usually wait for you to make a payment before they show you your credits, but if you make a nominal payment of say £1, it should bring up your credits on the next working day, as Avon will then process your payment, to show your credits.

Thank you xx

Hi Honey

just pay the £151 you owe Avon. The credits will sort themselves out when you have paid this.

Hiya everyone..

I really need some advice of how to get orders.. (I've just started)

I had a really good lot of houses in my territory in a mobile home site.. Hubby and I were delivering our books to be chased by a man and told that they already have a rep, who infact was due round that night with the deliveries!!! As you can imagine, we're FUMING because it's supposed to be our territory... That's what the majority of my territory was, the rest of the houses we have are elderly people.. Now how am I going to get any orders!?!? I've given books to family and friends who gave me an order in C4 but not sure if they will again in C5??

Ahhh.. What do to?? Thanks so much x

Thank you so much. Worry I wont get my order if I mess up

sounds like we both do it about the same, if they ask about whether its cheaper/better to order x from the other brochure I'll check for them, I just don't give them option of me checking over their whole order but if they asked then I would.

Yes, seems logical to me; I have more time on my hands anyway so like to help where I can. (I used to do a lot of charity work and got used to people crossing the street to avoid me - if they could.... :rotfl: ) so supporting my team (and actually reps on other teams too) is not that far removed.;)

don't worry. You will get your order, if it gets held because you have underpaid, you will get a fast phonecall from your asm and Avon, so don't worry!

contact your ASM, it could be that territory has already been assigned and shouldn't have been assigned to you and ask for more FREE territory.

Sorry me again, have been reading up on this thread am now on page 25! But can I ask, do you get a discount if you order from the brochre for yourself, for example there are a few ANEW items I'd like?

I am off out to collect my latest dropped books, my first orders are currently £152.50! I will hit the £148 target!!!

re the chocolate, i have decided i am going to add a funsize choc and teabag for all my customers who ordered as I haven't yet got any samples or clearance goodies as sweetners

No need for apologies on here Donna; yes, provided you hit MOV/HOV then you get discount on everything you order from the customer books. Worth checking though if it's available cheaper to you from your HT (although having said that sometimes it works out the other way i.e. more expensive! :mad: Pet hate of mine!!) And, of course, for some strange reason.... best known to Avon..... retail customers can get a better deal than reps re. some Anew products inc. freebies in C4 by ordering direct on-line. Check back a few pages for further info. (or add it to your PM/email)

Well done with your first orders; hope your upliner gave you a book re. your back campaign i.e. so you can make the most of Creative Ordering. If not, check out the links on here - it's surprising how much you can profit by back-ordering sometimes.

As for freebies, the Avon pens are worth considering too..... 20p each but it somehow adds a bit of kudos to your customers. Sometimes I do a £x spend and get a free gift but occasionally I just give my regular customers (and ones I'm trying to encourage) a free pen. Everyone loves a freebie.:D
