Tips for Selling Avon Direct Sales

We have talked a lot about selling Avon online and tips for making your business successful. Many of us still sell Avon directly to our customers and sometimes struggle with increasing our sales due to the time it takes to market our business and visit with customers to show demos and deliver samples. Here are some tips to help you with your direct sale business that I have found helpful.
 

1.  Buy Brochures

When first starting out, it's sometimes hard to spend money on brochures. Think of a brochure as your Avon store. Without a brochure, your direct sale customers won't have a store to shop. Keep in mind, the more brochures you buy the cheaper they are per pack of 10.

2.  Personal Note

Add a personal note with your brochure to introduce yourself to your potential customers and provide contact information. I added a note that also requested customers Text me with YES + their address, so I would know who is interested in receiving brochures in the future.

3.  Tossing Brochures

This method is great if you live in a heavily populated area. Place the brochures in a plastic brochure bag to protect it from the elements. Toss to the driveway, front yard or take the time to leave it on your neighbors door. The only drawback here, is that you are delivering "cold". You really don't know who is interested unless you talk to someone at each house. That takes a lot of time. So when first starting out, toss brochures to let people know you are there to provide Avon services.

4.  Where to leave your Brochures

Places that people sit and wait....are great places for someone to pick up a brochure and browse. Coffee shops, Dr.'s Offices, laundromats, bus stops, hairdressers are just a few. I have a plastic brochure holder that neatly fits about 6 brochures +business cards, that I leave in the entryway of a local restaurant and my hairdresser's (get permission). I bring a small gift, usually a hand cream, as a thank you for allowing me exposure in their establishments.
 

5.  Visit Office Buildings

This is a place where you can find lots of people with disposable income and little time to shop. Introduce yourself to the receptionist and bring lots of samples and brochures. Leave her a nice hand cream as a thank you gift for distributing the brochures within the office and collecting the orders. Let her know when you will return to follow up and leave your contact information for questions or orders.

6. Flyers

Get creative and design a flyer with a message you want to advertise. Recruiting, Specials, Skin Care, whatever you like. Place the flyers in post offices, grocery stores or places that people frequent. I like to put pull tabs with my information to make it easy for people to have my contact information. Use bright colored paper, pictures or an eye catching phrase. Using the word FREE somewhere on the flyers works well too.

7.  Finding new customers

Family and friends are a good place to start. If they are not interested in Avon, maybe they would be willing to take some of your brochures to their workplace.
Toss Brochures
Talk to everyone you know about your new business. Be proud of it!

8.  Investment Tools 

Business cards
Samples and demo products
Address labels for your brochures
Car decal or Avon Button- these are especially helpful for the shy representative that isn't comfortable approaching people and talking to them about Avon. Show your pride and let people come to YOU.
Avon fashion and jewelry- wearing your products is a great conversation starter!
Have fun with your business and use the marketing tools that make you feel comfortable. Remember this is YOUR business.

Tips for Avon Reps-Fundraising Steps to Success

Fundraising Steps to Success for Avon Representatives


Congratulations on finding an organization that wants to do an Avon Fundraiser with you! Now what?

The first thing you want to do is determine a contact person who will be responsible for coordinating with you, the Avon representative. Schedule a meeting with them to discuss which fundraiser they will conduct and the percentage offered back on the total sales. A contract must be signed between the parties which is also found on youravon.com. The contract will include start and end dates, delivery date and payments schedule. 

Next the Avon representative must register the fundraiser. This is a short form found on youravon.com. It ensures that the fundraiser is identified properly and given priority shipping. Representatives are then guaranteed 50% earnings on registered fundraisers. Representative offer the organization any or all of the percentage depending on expenses. I personally offer 40% on fundraisers and after paying for expenses such as bags, brochures, thank-you notes etc, there really isn't much left.

Why do fundraisers if you don't make much profit? For one it's a community service that helps out organization earn extra money, AND it increases your own total sales and possibly brings you to a new level, presidents club and beyond! It's a win win.

The coordinator collects the order forms and payments, checking them for accuracy. Order forms are then collected by the representative for ordering. Representatives can pay out the earnings in a couple of ways. 1) collect all of the payments and then present a check back to the organization for their earnings or 2) collect a check minus the percentage you have offered.  I chose #2 because it saves a step.

Once the order arrives, items are packaged like a regular order, including a brochure and thank-you note. You can get volunteers from the organization to assist with this, but I prefer to package it myself.  All packaged orders are then delivered to the organization for distribution to customers. 


If you are a representative interested in doing fundraisers, all of this information is found on youravon.com under the Earnings Opportunity tab in your web office, then Fundraising. 
If you are interested in hosting a fundraiser and live local to me, contact me for more information.

This information is also explained on my website skincaremarketingonline.com in the Sell Avon-> Tips for New Representatives tab.

SELL AVON-Empower Yourself

Sell Avon-Empower Yourself


I love selling Avon and would like to help others understand the Avon opportunity, what it can mean to empower yourself and start your own business.
The Avon independent Sales Representative earnings opportunity enables women to support themselves and their families. Representatives around the world are in business for themselves, but they are not by themselves. Our field management, as well as other Representatives, provide mentoring, training and support. That's where I come in. Joining my team will give you a direct resource, besides Avon, to becoming successful in your new business venture.

The Representative earnings opportunity offers another benefit: a flexible alternative to traditional employment, without set hours and a set workplace. If you love Avon products, you won't have any trouble sharing your excitement and passion for the products with the flexibility of taking care of other responsibilities. And make money doing it! I call that the ultimate work-life balance.

There are two ways to earn money as a Representative: by selling products or, through the Sales Leadership program, by selling products while recruiting others. But that is the subject of another blog at a later date. For now let's talk about YOU.

The higher a Representative’s campaign (selling cycle) sales are, the greater the percentage she will earn on those sales. Think big and set your goals high with $1575 in sales, your profit is 50%!!!!! Pretty good pay check for doing something you enjoy.

This is the Avon opportunity and what it can mean for you. Be your own boss, make your own hours, sell products you believe in, and have financial freedom to take care of yourself and your family.
