I think alot of it is to do where you live.0 -
how many doors are you going to?0

I agree about it being where you live, try to aim for the houses with the most "disposable income"0

I have different experiences to that. My best customers live on a council estate, with probably just one main earner. They love Avon as it is great product at a really low price compared to high street. They often put through orders at around £50 a time, as they know they have 3 weeks to budget as well
The 'posher' houses tend to like the designer names etc0 -
It is true i live on a council estate and i have loads of customers were i live and the posher houses dont seem to want to know0
-
Anyone thought about selling there excess stock ie freebies that you have managed to get on ebay if so is it worthwhile?0

Aww hun, so its not like you're not putting in the leg work!
are you just posting, or knocking first? Are you getting the books back and is it just that theyre not interested in Avon, or not this time?
How long are you leaving the books out for? Have you highlighted any offers? Which campaign are you doing at the mo?
Sorry about all the questions, just trying to see if i can help with owt? pm if you want? x0 -
Thanks for your help :]
Well i try and knock first and if they say no then i go onto the next house..if they're not in i just leave them anyway..i would say i get about 80% of them back..but they dont have orders. When i collect them i ask them if they want me to delivery again and they usually say no.
Ive had two orders and thats it. Alot of people who probs would buy say they already buy from someone at work or a friend/family member..
Im doing to 4-5 campaign books at the mo and i usually just write about the offers in the note bit at the top of the order form..
Thanks0
