    Can I ask how much you made? Sorry I'm just really nosey! PM me maybe if you don't want to post it on the board. Well done and hope this campaign is going well for you.

    Nah I don't mind, I already posted it somewhere I think. I got £336. Which I personally didn't think was that high but my AM said it was so it must be!

    I'm on £262.10 this month so far, hoping to get a few more orders coz I delivered another 20 books today and I've got two more roads (each with 52 houses on :eek:) to try and get in before Monday! I would've had them done easy this month but I keep getting ill :mad: That total doesn't include anything I am going to order though, so it will be a bit higher.

    Is this your first campaign? How much are you up to? Don't feel obliged to tell me, I don't mind. I'm also really nosey :rotfl:
    :heart: Think happy & you'll be happy :heart:
    I :heart2: my doggies

    Cool - as in that case I'm all the nearer the £144 needed to get 25%. :D Fingers crossed the weekend brings in a few more orders!

    If you end up below but fairly close, it'd be worth buying the extra yourself so that you get commission on the whole order.

    Well i'm well pooed off

    i've been a avon rep for over 25 years, and i used to be a manger for a short while, ages ago.

    I'm now just a presidents club member.

    I've gone out tonight to collect the last of my books to see that some girl, who says she is a 'sales leader' has been on my road.

    I'm mad, as my manager knows that i do canvas my area a lot, and it was only at the presidents club night out in march that we was talking about this.

    Why do managers do this, and annoy there best reps.

    Absolute same situation we are in, we keep asking for more streets and got the same reply or we could "caretake" the streets until someome takes them over, thats when she bothers to get in touch, so i have told my wife sod it and we have started canvasing streets anyway, at the end of the day we are meant to be self employed the wife has a bit of time on here hands so why not.

    My AM told me that Avon never takes streets away once you have them. So perhaps with the TV advertising that's on at the moment they do want to keep streets handy in certain areas for new reps. Must be frustrating though, but have you tried local businesses? They aren't territory are they?

    Wend - I've PMd you for those party games ideas. Thanks for offering to send them.

    Hayley - I'm up to £102 but hope to get some more orders in on Sunday when I go and try and collect my second drop though I'm wondering if I may miss some people because of the bank holiday. For myself I'm getting the samples bag plus if I get closer to £144 I'll order some shower gels and stuff as it'll be well worth it. Husband needs some shaving gel etc.
