NEWS FLASH!!

Although  business cards work great we've discovered that there are more subtle (OK well maybe not so subtle) ways to build your Avon business. Now we have a large collection of apparel from t-shirts to ball caps - from coffee mugs to tote bags to assist you in making your business all that it can be.  There are hundreds of items to help you with recruiting, selling or just to reward your downline . 

Advertising is a MUST!

Those in business know this, I don't know of any way to build a business without advertising. We all know the caveman from Geiko right?  What do you think of when you think of Affleck?
So let me ask you this. How do you advertise your business? If your not achieving the levels you know that you can then you need to understand what the problem is.  We use a more subtle  (less annoying approach) its more subjective - lets face it every one wants to make more money right? What if you were wearing a sweatshirt that offered folks to do just that - MAKE MORE money?  Check out the items we've designed and you will see how you can turn yourself into a "BILLBOARD" for your own business

Welcome Ladies (and a few gents).

This page has but two purposes - to provide you with some useful information and some tools that have been designed to assist you in building your business.

The Truth

I've watched many Ladies get all excited about living the lavish lifestyle portrayed on Avon's promotional material. Can you achieve it - Absolutely, but most won't. Why, I suppose because they forget that it requires devotion and commitment. You must keep the dream (or reason) in front of you.  Its also important to realize the "Rome wasn't built in a day". You MUST be patient! And you must realize that you must do things a little different I've included some tips about the business as well as some creative products that HAVE worked in achieving your goals.

Gas Prices and Your Business

As of today 5/28/08 gas prices have increased .15 a gallon the past week alone, the national average is $3.94! This is continuing bad news for anyone trying to grow or maintain a business and you as an Avon Representative have no doubt noticed a drop in sales and in new recruits. I've noticed a surge in web traffic this past few months as Ladies are desperately searching for new innovative ways to attract  business. I've said it before and I'll say it again YOU NEED TO ADVERTISE!!! If you depend on your Avon business for financial support you can't wait for prices to drop and your customers to start buying again. There art lots of ideas provided in my blog - basic business ideas that if you revisit will serve to encourage and thus stimulate your business. The products I've designed are also very helpful. Remember your not the only one trying to get by, many folks are looking for an opportunity to make extra money. I recommend you look at these items and keep an open mind. I'll be designing more soon that relate to the high cost of gas. Remember though, that to survive this crises you must do things  differently!


Who Am I?

I'm the husband of the "Avon Lady" , a professional photographer and marketing consultant. My wife asked me to design a few products that would assist her in building her business. She felt there was very little "out there" to accomplish this task. I set to work and put several items together that we have tested and found to be quite successful in attracting new business or to recruit new Ladies.

I felt a more subtle approach would work the best - we are hammered all the time with adds are we not? Thank goodness for Tivo! I encourage you to have a look at the products I've created, you will I'm sure see the logic right away!

I'm trying to help

I believe its a husbands responsibility to help or at least encourage his wife - Not always so apparently.  It seems to me that most Representatives are on their own and many receive little assistance from District Managers, or Up Line. I work with my wife because I see the commitment she has to her business, her Ladies and her customers.

Why  don't  the products say Avon on them?

They would have, we tried to negotiate with Avon to use their Logo but there is such a small profit in creating a very small quantity that after paying Avon their "royalties" for using their name we would actually be losing several dollars per item! We have found that the image works just fine to spark someone's interest and we are legally able to do this without infringing on the Avon Name and or Logo.



I like them but I'm still not sure, they look like just pretty pictures to me.

They are designed to be pretty, in many cases you'll be wearing them! We want people to notice the images and the message that accompanies them. We have a variety of products available from apparel to coffee mugs, we encourage you to use them to suit your own needs - be creative and get the word out there!
