Initially why did you join Avon?
I wanted to feel more independent and see if I really could sell it while staying home with my granddaughter.
Has your "why" changed since you joined?
Yes, in some ways I fell in love with the products and it really has helped my skin. I am my own boss and making my own money again and I still can be home to help take care of my granddaughter.
What is your proudest moment in your business?
Reaching my goals!
How do you find new customers?
Walking from house to house talking to people handing out brochures and samples, passing out my business cards and doing surprise giveaways have landed me new customers!
What are your best tips for business?
To take the time to listen to people and have a good conversation, not to just push what your selling. Let people know you care and you’re just not there to make a sale. Yes, this takes some of my time up, but I have found that it also has helped my sales. People want to buy from people who take time with them and care.
What is your favorite Avon product and why?
I absolutely love the Anew vitamin c serum and the Dr. Belmeur recovery cream. It has been a life changer for me. For two years I struggled with a face rash I developed after lots of strong Antibiotics and a surgery I had on my intestines. For some reason I developed a dark red burning rash on my face that was terrible to look at and burned like someone splashed hot boiling water on my face. I have seen a dermatologist that had no answers for me, they just gave me expensive creams to use but none worked. Their cream just eased the pain a little for about 30 min. I was so scared to try the Vitamin C Brightening Serum and the Dr. Belmeur Recovery Cream on my face but I said it can’t hurt no more than all the other creams and medicines I have tried. Well, guess what??? it worked... no burning, no dark blistered redness. It took it all away and I have my face back!! So far, it’s been wonderful, and I have started to use night creams and day creams and it feels so good not to be in pain and have a blistered look on my face. I use my vitamin c serum and the recovery cream daily!!
