Thanks for replying. I'm in the West Yorkshire area, Halifax to be specific.
£50 a month is less than I expected to be honest. Does this reflect the amount of work involved?

Lowest we have earnt is £47 thats the worst month, this campaign we have earnt £101 profit, hour wise its no more than 5 hours work for us

i earn around £150 month, but i cover a whole village, but in total its only around 70 customers. its extra cash for me to pay for the holiday and xmas shopping.

i suppose when i average it out i do around 4/5hrs week, so thats not bad.

if you sold 10% more in camp ? than you did in that camp last year then you earned the easter insentive, the anew products!

Did anybody get a load of Anew freebies this month, it mentioned something about an Easter promotion or something, the wife has thrown the old hello tomorrow books out so not sure what its all about, there is about £45 worth of products all told.

I also find that the novelty doesnt wear off I get just as excited and I am now on my third campaign. I look forward to seeing how many orders you get and how much they are worth, but I try not to look until I am back home. It does get disheartening tho when you pull out blank order form after blank order form!!!

just a little tip look at the order form there and then as i havent a cpl of times pulled out an order n the customer didnt put there name n address on it so i was stumped....

Ah-ha that explained why I've got stuff I didn't order and thought - "eh? what's this then" = perhaps I should read more of the Hello Tomorrow than just the clerance section......

I also have a customer who orders every time but I never get a book back, but what she orders also covers the cost of the book tenfold.

Same here, a lot of my customers email me their orders so I lose a few books each campaign so I always have to remember to order loads.

I have a question about keeping some streets a book behind than others, I have only just started campaign 9 this week (which seems really late) and my other streets are on campaign 8.

Loads of them are seeing adverts on TV who are on book 9 and are asking why the adverts for Pro to go have been on TV for aggggeees but only just in the book. And the ones on book 8 are even more confused. Are the adverts just on early to build up anticipation or am I really far behind on campaigns? Number 9 doesn’t get delivered until the 5th June!

Im on book ten at the moment but have really messed.

Must have put my order for 11's brochures in the wrong place and have been sent more book tens. Silly me.

Will probably try and make the most of my error by recanvassing my streets and trying another street that Ive not done before.

Also forgot to leave out my returns for my husband to give to courier so will probably be recharged for them.

Im not normally this disorganised :rotfl:

It all depends on where you are in the country I think and what "band" you are in. I think Avon runs it so that every day of every week some one is putting an order in. So to enable that to happen they have area bands from A to O. A being the newest catalogue and O being the oldest.

Hope that kind of makes sense. I only found out about it yesterday.
