So you just started your Avon business and are ready to place your first order. What items are needed for your Avon business that you need to purchase with your first Avon order and what is it going to cost?
It is important when you start your Avon business to consider how you are not only going to meet your first goal in your first campaign but also how much you will need to earn to purchase your business items to continue your Avon business into your next campaign and future campaigns. The first campaign sales will be used to purchase business tools needed to grow your business.
Catalogs are the key to a healthy Avon business and are iconic to the Avon brand. Many people associate catalogs with Avon; therefore, catalogs should be ordered every campaign.
To order your catalogs and other items needed for your Avon business; you will need to go to youravon.com 2.0 and click on the products section of the page.
Here you will be able to order items for your Avon business; such as your samples, brochures & fliers, bags for orders, order forms and more.
Items needed for your Avon business:
Catalogs/brochures for your next campaign – minimum of 20. These catalogs are good through the next 2 campaigns and even when they expire you can still use them.
Order forms – these are free; so order and use them. I like to give them to the customers with their catalog so that they can use it to write down their orders. Some customers take a picture of it and send it to me via text; others use it to place their order online at my eStore with rep delivery or direct delivery.
Clear literature bags – These bags are great to put your catalogs in with samples to give to your customers or prospects. I like to add candies to the bags and a special offer. They are also good for putting small orders in and are very inexpensive. Only 80 cents for 50.
Shopping bags – the least expensive bags to start off with are the popcorn bags. They are less expensive and great for starting out on a budget. These will last you for a number of future campaigns.
Samples – be sure to purchase a few samples to give to your new customer and prospects. This opens up the door for you to follow up with how they liked the product sample(s).
How much should you set aside for items needed for your Avon business?
It all depends on what you are able to afford and how your sales went in your first campaign. Just one of the reasons you will want to have a minimum order of $150. You will need approximately $20 – $30 to put towards items needed for your Avon business. This cost is including the s/h and any taxes that may apply.
You will not need to spend this every campaign. These items should last you for awhile. The only thing you will need to purchase EVERY campaign is your catalogs.
Get excited about ordering items needed for your Avon business; that means your business is growing and you are working it like a boss!!
