How to Start an Avon Home Business


Avon is a cosmetics company that has been around for so many years; Avon markets to women around the world through over five million independent sales Representatives, each Avon representative is actually viewed as a small business owner. Avon product lines include cosmetics, apparels, perfumes and accessories. Working as an independent sales representative for Avon is a way to make extra money in your spare time or run a home based business. Follow these steps if you'd like to begin selling their products;


 
Sign up to become an Avon Sales Representative. You go to Avon site in the country you            live in to sign up, if you leave in Italy, go to Avon

You will be contacted by your zone  representative about starting your own business. The start up cost is very minimal.....that depend on the country you leave in. You will be supplied with everything you need to start (instruction manual, brochures, samples and  Avon bag, etc). You are not required to buy anything in order to start or keep your business. It is best to use the products in order to tell others about them, It's hard to sell products that you don't truly know. You can get some % off everything you order.

Make the most of your business by taking Avon's online training courses. Every new representative should start here, the  courses include everything from money management, to launching your business and how to  order. Most of the classes are 30 minutes and have downloadable text sheets. You get a certificate after completing  the course.

                       
                                How to promote your Avon business

Go out on foot and go door to door. Start with your immediate neighbors, family, friends, co-workers and branch out. You do not have to do any selling at the door, simply introduce yourself to those that does not know you already  and leave them a brochure. You can follow up to see if they have any questions and encourage them to share your book or website with all those they know.


To be successful, you must promote and sell large quantities of Avon products. Promoting your Avon business can increase sales and profits. Once you start making money, start investing in items which will help you promote your business.
  • Create a website  that allows customers to conveniently shop online. Businesses that have an online presence reach a broader clientele base. 
  • Use car stickers  

  • Make fliers to pass out.

  •  Make business cards to hand out to people.
  •  I  buy  extra Avon catalogs and add my name, number and website on the back. I go round  different neighborhoods and start distributing them to different houses, putting in mailboxes or just leaving them at the door post or places where it will be seen and picked up..

I always have brochures in my hand bag or car trunk to hand out to people. To succeed, you need to reach as many customers as possible. Expand beyond your group of friends and family by giving out Avon brochures. 

Have fun selling Avon
