You have 36 days from the day of submitting the return to get the things back to Avon, so what you could do is:

- do the credit request on delivery day or the day before, even though you'll be at work on delivery day

- keep hold of the item until your next delivery day 3 weeks later.

Even if you've done the credit already, the 36 days should cover your for 2 delivery days spaced 21 days apart.

If that fails, you can still get items re-credited after they've been re-charged. Not entirely sure how you go about this because I haven't done it myself, but I've definitely heard of it happening.

To add to IGs useful post, if you need To get it recredited you just contact Avon and explain, easiest way to this is through the contact is form at the bottom of the site when you're logged in.

Hi All! I have missed sooooo much... It's been rather hectic as we planned our wedding since New Year, and got married last week! Back from a honeymoon weekend break,and ready for some huge Avon campaigns to pay for it all now!

Hope everyone is well, and I can catch up a little over the last few pages and see what's been happening

I missed C5 as I went to submit late due to clash with wedding and Avon wiped the order from the system. Needless to say I didn't have my paperwork on honeymoon with me to put it all through again! Avon can wait til C6 for my C5 orders now! :mad:

Hi just two quick questions -
1 - Where can I find a list of their discontinued and up and coming discontinued items please? I know I have seem one beofre but can't find ti now!

2 - Any tips on a mascara that is for sensitive eyes? One customer had one she could use but its now discontinued and the ones she is trying affect her eyes but in the scant descriptions of the new mascaras it does not say anything as to which might be suitable.

Thanks in advance.

Hi all, I have just joined Avon (I did it a few years ago when I lived in another area but not for long). Have been reading this thread with interest, thanks to all of you for all the great tips :T

Can I just ask, someone mentioned about being able to print stuff off from the avon site, like a form to say when you are picking up etc. but I can't seem to find it on the site ...

I hope to hear soon whether I am getting some teritory but in the meantime will concentrate on friends and family..

Good luck to all of you with your avon businesses

Have I got it right that if you made £600 of sales you actually only earn £150? The campaigns are every three weeks aren't they? £600 if I'm reading is absolutely fantastic and at the top scale, so is £50 a week the top scale of what you can make?

Thanks

If you sell £600-worth of products at full brochure price, and none are fixed discount items, the items will cost you £450 and your gross profit will be £150.

After that however, you have your business expenses such as brochures, paper and ink (if you print notes), calling cards etc... - basically everything you have to pay for to run your business.

So your net profit will be less than £150. I'd say £130-£140 is a realistic net profit figure from those sales.

Fixed discount products are items where you get the same discount no matter whether you hit MOV or HOV. They're the branded goods and are listed at the back of HT.

We're not supposed to have the word Avon in our e-mail address or any URL we create (Facebook page etc...) although many reps do. It's to do with not making ourselves look like Avon employees.

I have an e-mail address with Avon in it, which I set up before knowing I couldn't. I've set up a new one and use that everywhere online now, and it's the address Avon has on file for me.
