    Hi everyone, hope it's going okay

    What do I do if I only want to order one brouchure (I'm going to blitz every 2nd campaign so don't want any packs for campaign 5. Just one to double check for bargains....

    Also, (hope this doesn't sound toooo money grabbing...) - do you get commission on Avon Crusade bits? e.g. the note book and pen?

    you cant just order 1 brochure you have to buy 1 pack of 5, and there is no comission on the crusade stuff as it all goes to charity

    You don't have to buy brochures. If you don't order a pack you will get sent one single brochure and charged 50p for it. I only do every second campaign too.

    Thats only if you place an order tho, you cant just order a magazine without ordering any goods :confused:

    Thanks both. I suspected there was no commission on Crusade, but wondered. Does it count towards your sales target though?

    Thanks re the brochure too. I'm placing a little a little order (£3.50) so that I get the Hello Tomorrow still, so will leave the brouchure to get sent one then :)

    I'm going out tomorrow to collect my first batch of books. I've already got my 'thank you for your order' slips ready.

    I just have a quick question - on the order form do I keep both copies or do I leave one with them - or is the second copy for when I bag the orders?

    Hi, as a customer I give both slips to my Avon lady, she clips one back on to the bag when she brings the items,

    Hopefully someone else can answer the other bit x

    You keep the top copy and give the bottom one back to the customer with the order, some people keep hold of it when they order tho
  • crikey my sales leader sends texts messages reminding me to order for every order - I guess that helps her targets then!

    must get the next books out on Monday, I 'd be chuffed if I broke a 100 pounds!

    Nevertheless she persisted.

    Thank you, i thought you may have to keep them - just wanted to double check.

    I just got back collecting catalogues from my first trip, 1 order of £41 pounds and 2 people still want to look through and order. Thats out of 35 houses, so im quite chuffed with that - i was paranoid that absolutely no one would be interested. All i've got to do now is get another £30/40 out of 143 houses.

    This is so exciting - apart from feeling like a plum when i need to ask for the catalogues back :D
