Avon Job

Who here has sold Avon? How many hours a day did you need to put in? How well did you do? How does the process work? Are there any costs?

Have done similar but not Avon. Wont do it again and dont have to anyway. Does that say a lot ?
The amount of time you put into it, is like anything else if you are self employment, you only get back what you put into it. If you already have a demanding job, as I think you do, as you say you work up to l2 hours a day????

How would you have time to do anything else that has to be done while people are still awake and talking?

Avon is a good product and has outlasted many in the same field because they diversified . Mary Kay for one of them.

Just my input, chi, I dont know what your outlay would be, I think you have to purchase, at cost, your initial kit.

Good luck and hope you are not over working yourself, but why Avon by the way ?

I'm actually working 19 hours some days. At the second job, I literally have 6-7 hours where my clients are sleeping, and there is nothing for me to do, so I though it would be super-productive to pick up something online for pay during those hours. I was wondering if there was an online method for selling Avon.

one of my friends sold avon and said it wasn't worth it because she spent the money she made on gas to deliver products.

Some do real good, others stop after a few weeks
I know one lady who sells it at a factory, she leaves off books on lunch table. She takes her orders and brings in bags at a time to one location.

Another sells it in a doctors office, leaves it in the waiting room and so on

The way I see it, it is usually done as a sideline. As said above, the books are left at strategic locations, women look through it and call the the number (of whoever left it) and place an order. I have been guilty of doing this, but not for their perfumes. I have to say that Avon Anew line is really great.

What have you got to lose. Just leave the books and see what happens.

Yes, I don't know anyone that does it full time, everyone I know does it part time.

And for those wanting to buy me a gift, I love the mens products
