Avon

Published by leahsfrog under Random Edit This

Instead of saving money tips, today I am going to give some feedback on a work from home venture I have tried out. Avon, now I know you just rolled your eyes but I am being serious. I actually gave it a go twice but I never count the first one because I never applied myself to it.

The second time around I went in full throttle and called or visited every family member that lived within driving distance. I printed out flyers and left catalogs everywhere I went. I purchased a make-up case and bought every bundle package they offered. For the first few weeks I had dedicated buyers and had made enough to cover what I put into the product.

Ultimately, this venture was doomed before it started for one reason; I am not driven by anything that has to do with make-up. I just could not create a passionate feeling about the product and in turn quit exerting the effort. It did not help to have clients order expensive orders and then decide a week after you recive the product that they do not want it.

If make-up excites you and the highlight of your week is talking your friends into a make-over you have all the potential to become an avon success story. Not that anybody can jump right in and do it; you have to be personable and cheery, assertive and consistent, organized, marketing savy, and goal oriented at all times. They have great opportunites and amazing rewards to top sellers. Their product is well know and has established a history of top quality for a smaller budget. I did’nt have anything driving me to want to succeed so I delivered the last oreders I had and put my make-up case away for good. I have to say that was four years ago and I still have unopened Avon product
