Super Size Me

Selling products is the base for being a successful Avon representative.  I love the products and the prices and of course I am also a customer.  That is what makes it easy for me to sell.  I believe in Avon. And I set goals for myself to maximize my profits.  But the other thing I love is that Avon allows me to satisfy another need.  I enjoy coaching and mentoring others to be successful.  Avon's leadership program gives everyone this opportunity.  All I have to do is show people what I do.  Avon gives us all the tools and we just have to duplicate and mirror that training on to others that want to join.  But "how do I do that?", you may ask.  Well, it all starts with the contact list you make when you have your first appointment.  Those fifty or more people on your list are your potential customers but there may also be some potential recruits in there too.
Your team leader can help you identify them and help you with what to say when approaching others.  I always tell my team to let everyone on their list know that not only are they selling Avon but to come talk to them first if they or someone they know would like to join as well.  I can not tell you how many times I have heard that one friend starts selling and one of her friends joins through someone else because they didn't know they could sign up under a brand new rep.  Don't let this happen to you.  Besides, it's fun working with and supporting friends.

So with my list in hand, online ads and face to face prospecting, I have signed up four people to my team.  Thank you to my guinea pigs.  I have learned a lot in these few weeks about my training style and how I need to tweak it for each individual.  Not everyone wants the Full Monty, lol,  but it's up to me to support everyone on my team to achieve their goals.  

Don't let yourself miss out on this opportunity, even if you are a brand new representative.  It may feel like you don't know enough to teach someone else but that is what your team leader and district manager are here for.  You observe us and soon you are able to let someone observe you.  

So are you ready to upsize your Avon business?  Let me show you how!
