    Hi Oveetta, some people are finishing off camp nine and some are currently doing camp 10 but im not sure that it is time to place camp 11 orders. It varies though from place to place. Have you tried calling your ASM? Let us know how it goes.
    Btw, if you have already taken some orders from people for camp 11, i bet you could find 90% in the camp 10 book, upi just might have to pay a bit more (but maybe less!).
    HTH xxx

    Two problems. One is that it' the camp where there is a free beauty bag with £15 order on ANEW and I have two of those so they will make me pay demo and the second is that quite a few things are also out of the sale book! Why should I have to pay for my AMs mistakes?
    Debts: Gym £[strike]465.75[/strike] Student account [strike]£1039.88[/strike] Overdraft [strike]£129.00[/strike] Credit Card [strike]£2772.22[/strike] Loan [strike]£6222.01 [/strike]
    Total £10628.86 :eek:
    All paid off! 10/03/2009 :j
  • You definately shouldn't have to pay for her mistakes- this isnt really a brilliant start for you. If it was me I would call her and tell her the problem and ask if she is going to pay the difference. She might just say that you should wait a few weeks to put the order in but this could eb a bit tricky telling your customers that they wont get their items for a while. If she tells you to wait, I would ask her for some free samples or free small items that you can give to your customers in the meantime as a sorry for the delay.
    It was probably an honest mistake but its one that is messing you around rather a lot. Give her a call asap i would say!
    Let me know how it goes x

    I just contacted my ASM and asked if I could have another street and she doubled the size of my teritory, have nearly 400 houses now WOOOHOOOO!

    I'm aiming for £400 sales this month, wish me luck :D Hows everyone done on C10, I'm just starting it today, but I know I'm in one of the last groups for C10.

    That's brilliant Mikiki!! Hope you get loads of orders from your new houses.

    I am going to collect most of my books for camp 10 tomorrow, so fingers crossed! For my first three orders I've had over £300 so I would like to keep it around that, here's hoping!
    :heart: Think happy & you'll be happy :heart:

  • Well done Mikiki they are nice steady improvements. I keep sticking around the £230 mark (ive only done 2 camps but they have both been like this), so i am aiming to get £300 of orders from camp 11 which i will start on monday.
    I live in a block of flats and people never seem to be in/leave their books out. I have found that for every corridor of about 40 flats i prob get a book into about 15 hands and get about 2 orders from each floor. The majority of my orders come from work which I am leaving today- eek!!
    Has anyone else found that the free giant beach bag in camp 10 was a hit? I collated other peoples orders and have got 2 for myself! woo!

    just cos ure leaving your job, surely u can still be their avon rep? if ure leaving on bad terms then ime sure one of your colleagues wouldnt mind collecting the orders for you, for the price of a few samples.

    my daughter is leaving junior school in july and i wont be in the playground anymore, but ive done a letter to my 32 'mums' and told them i will drop book to their house, they can email me order and then i will drop to them. in reality, it will take me less than an hour every three weeks to drive round and drop book through their doors. the money i make on their orders alone will cover petrol money.

    hope this helps someone.....
