Here are some of the more frequently asked questions about Avon.

Q: How much is the kit and what do you get?A:  $25 (Value Over $80) and (free shipping) to start your business. You will receive everything you need to get started with Avon, including:

• 4 Full Size Products (Anew AHA Refining Cream, Moisture Therapy Intensive Healing & Repair Hand Cream, Skin So Soft; Original Oil Spray and Mega Effects Mascara)
• 44 brochures/maglogs
• 10 product Samples
• Sales Tools and more

Q: How much do you make with Avon?A: Your commission is based on the size of your orders.  The more you sell, the higher commission you will earn!  The commission structure is as follows:

Licensed products are earned at 20% commission.  These items have diamond cluster next to the product name. These are items Avon does not manufacture and therefore can’t give as big a commission on them. There are further earnings opportunities within the Leadership Program.

Q: Do I need a computer?A: Yes, its highly recommended that you use a computer. Avon is no longer offering paper purchase orders.  There is the option to place your orders via Fast Talk (on the phone) but it isn’t recommended.  Some reps enter their order through their smart phone but it can be difficult as it is so small.

Q: How Does AVON work? What is a campaign? How do I get paid?A: You take orders from family, friends and coworkers etc. each campaign. A campaign is the selling period for each brochure and lasts two weeks. At the end of the campaign you submit the order to AVON. You are billed the discounted price. The customers pay the full brochure price. You submit payment to Avon before the placing the next order. The difference between the two is your pay!

Q: What do I need to run a successful business?A: As an Avon independent sales representative you own your own business. You are responsible for purchases the things necessary such as brochures, samples, basic office supplies etc. You get brochures in your kit to start. After that you must purchase them, the more you buy the less they cost.  You will spend at least $7 per campaign on brochures (for 10 books).  It is $21.49 for 100 brochures.

Use your books WISELY!

• Always get Name, phone number, and email
• Always follow up!! They (the customers) have your paycheck. Go get it!

You will receive some samples in your starter kit, but for samples you want to purchase it will cost between $1.00 and $3.00 for a pack of 10 samples.

Q: Do I have to keep any inventory on hand?A: At Avon, you are never required to keep a stock of products on hand. I find its nearly impossible to predict what your customers will order and suggest you only  stock up  if you plan on doing an event, gift baskets or have certain items you want to promote to sell. Again it is your business so you can decide how you want to run it.

Q: Am I required to place an order every campaign?A: No, it is not required, but it is advisable to at least order the brochures so you are able to show your customers the current sales and the latest products. Its imperative to keep your store open and you must have brochures on hand to do that. To stay active you need to place an order every four campaigns even if it is a small order, otherwise you will be removed for inactivity.

Q: Do I have to have parties?A: You are not required to have any parties. However, many Representatives find group selling to be a very lucrative way to sell more products, broaden their customer base, and build their network marketing organization. If you do choose to participate in group selling, Avon offers various training and support materials to assist you. That’s the beauty of Avon you decide how to run your business.

Q: Is it hard to sell Avon?A: Avon is one of the best known brands in the world, which makes it easy to sell. It has quality products at affordable prices. There is something for everyone!  AVON fits right into your daily lifestyle.

Q: How much does the average customer order?A: The average order size is approximately $25-$30.

Q: Are there quotas to meet?A. There are not quotas to sell Avon. The size of your order does not matter however your commission will depend on your order size. See chart above.

Q. Do I have to pay shipping?A. There is a minimum $0.75 handling fee that we charge each customer and you can charge accordingly.  So basically the customers cover our shipping fee. We have a new one simple fee program that started in C-19 2011. Shipping will range depending on order size from $5.95  to $10.95 for an on time order.

Q: Am I required to recruit people?A: There are no recruiting requirements. Many people join and only sell Avon. If someone contacts you about joining you just refer them to myself. If you choose to share the opportunity with others and  join the leadership program then there are additional bonuses per qualified person, advancement bonuses and residual income you can earn as a leader.  If you want to make more money and maximize your earning opportunity, it is advised that you recruit people and build a team.

Q: Do I need to file Income Tax? A: Yes. However, Avon is not required to send in your name or SS# unless you purchase more than $5000 worth of products a year. There are many tax deductions that you can claim because you are a business owner.

Q: Do I have to sign a contract with Avon? A: There is a contract to sign, but it is only to state that you agree to the terms and conditions of being a representative. There is no time limit on the contract, and there is no fee or penalty to ending your relationship with AVON.

Q: What happens after I have been appointed as a New Rep?A: In a few easy steps, you can become an Avon Representative and start your own business. Shortly after you completed your appointment process, you will able to go online, explore the product line, and start your training. You may also build your personal website to sell products to customers and manage your business. Within the next few days, the person who talked to you about the Avon opportunity will follow up and offer you additional personal training opportunities to ensure that you get your business off to a successful start.

Q: What do I need to do if I decide Avon is not for me?A: You just need to pay off your account and/or return any items you have for credit.  Also notify Customer Service, your Upline or District Manager and let them know.

Q: I’m ready to join!  How do I get started?A: Go to www.StartAvon.com and use reference code lshirley.  Fill out your information and pay your $25 appointment fee.  Avon will ship your starter kit directly to you (3-5 business days to receive) and you will be able to log into your new account within minutes!  Congratulations….this may be the best decision you’ve ever made!
