How to promote your AVON business

In our economy we need any way to make a little extra cash. AVON is a great company to do direct selling through. I have put together a few different ways of promoting your business, and I hope it helps you increase your income.

Difficulty: Moderate

Instructions

1. The first thing is to make sure you get enough brochures. You will probably only get about 2 new customers per 100 brochures. I always put a note on the front of the brochure stating any specials for new customers. Usually 10% off the first order of $25 or more. You can add any special that you are running, but specials do get you more business.

2. Get business cards printed up. Vistaprint.com is the bust site. You can get pens, Cards, letter heads, even t-shirts printed up with your business info. Be sure to promote yourself everywhere you go. Always think of your chance for business no matter where you go.

3. Take a few books and put them at apartment mail boxes. This has gotten me the majority of my business. Or get flyers printed. They have great templates at your AVON site. Carry brochure with you everywhere. Leave one in the grocery cart when you leave. Make sure it is inside because they will trash it if it is outside. Leave one in the service station bathroom when you get gas.

4. Promote yourself online. There are plenty of sites that let you promote for free. Like Craigslist, and Yellow pages. Cut the costs as much as passable, but get yourself out there.

5. Know your products. Take advantage of the knowledge they have at AVON. They will give you everything you need to know if you take the time to sit and read it all. You can also join a lot of the AVON groups on yahoo. They provide a great deal of info. I also buy some of the products and let friends and family try them and fill out a survey. This is a very informative way of learning. It just costs a little extra.

Tips & Warnings

• Always promote yourself, no matter where you are.
• Know your products.
