I am here to get your Avon business started off on the right foot and do everything I can to help you grow your sales along with building your own team should you choose to do so.
I regularly send out e-mails with tips and texts on occasion to check in with you to see how you are doing and if you are needing help. If you are NOT receiving my e-mails be sure to put your correct e-mail address in your profile on youravon.com portal.
It is important that you respond so that I know that you are receiving these texts and e-mails that way I can know how you are doing and if we need to have a one-on-one phone conversation. Your time is valuable and life can be hectic; therefore, I prefer to text before calling to make sure when a good time is for you to chat.
I created this blog page as a resource to help you get started with your Avon Business. Should you ever have questions or need a phone call – please reach out to me @ BeautyBossMonica@gmail.com.

Important info:
Campaign Schedule: Your campaign schedule is based on your location within the United States. You are within an RPS schedule that determines when your orders are due. Go to Key Campaign dates to see when your order is due.
You can also go to account – profile – Scroll down a little and you will see mailplan. Click on see calendar. You can print this calendar off or visit it anytime.
Direct Deposit: Scroll down a little further and you will see that you can set up your direct deposit and more. Be sure to go to your bank and set up an Avon account for your Avon business.
Commission Chart: Commission percentage is based on your order sales. This chart can be found in yourAvon.com under earning opportunities – earnings chart. Note: your face to face and online sales will be calculated together to give
you your total. Check out HOT POINTS to learn how to increase your earnings.
How to Place your first order – I have created a video on how to place your first order. Still have questions? E-mail me @ BeautyBossMonica@gmail.com and I will give you a call.
Avon catalogs/brochures: Avon Brochures are essential to your Avon business. They are your store. You will receive catalogs with your kit but will need to purchase them for future campaigns. You can order catalogs under sales tools. These come in packs of ten and the more you purchase, the less they cost.
How do you get paid: When you have a customer who places an order from you, you will collect the payment for the total amount due. If there is sales tax where you live you will want to add it to the sale. Also, if you live in Hawaii or Alaska where there is a 15% shipping fee; you will want to add that as well. I also recommend adding a 75 cent to $1 processing fee. This will help cover your other business costs. This is of course up to you.
When you place your order, Avon will charge you for the cost of the products as well as the sales tax and shipping costs and any tools you have purchased. If there is a sales tax in your area Avon will pay your sales tax. You will not need to set up a separate business account or obtain a business license. The amount left over from customer payment is your profit.
Recommendation: If you are able – you may want to get a cash back credit card for your Avon purchases ONLY!! This will allow you to earn cash back on all of your Avon purchases. Be sure that you have the money in your bank account you set up to pay your credit card in full when it comes due. This will also help keep track of year end tax expenditures.
Congratulations – you are now on your way to becoming your own Avon Beauty Boss. Can’t wait to see where your journey takes you.
