A New AVON Year - What Are Your Goals?

The 2018 AVON year has come to an end, and with no further ado, we ushered in Campaign 1 of 2019, and thus a new trek towards President's Club and accolades for other achievements along the way. 

Everybody starts again, at $0 in sales and the first level to reach is $10,000 in sales awards and thus gain the President's Club level and a guaranteed 40% commission on your orders whether they are $5 or $500 (25% on fixed earnings items instead of 20%). Other perks of attaining the  President's Club level include being able to order 3 of every demo item in the What's New book, each campaign, instead of the 1 allowed every representative, plus a get together where other achievements - top sales, team growth etc - are all recognised.

In Campaign 1 AVON is giving us double award sales points to help us get a jumpstart on our 2019 journey towards President's Club. So, if you have $25 in sales it becomes 50 points towards the 10,000 needed to achieve the goal, if you have $500 in sales, it becomes 1000 points, and so on. It's a great opportunity to start building those points!

In AVON, you can opt to sell, or to sell and "do leadership". Leadership has more responsibilities and needs you to want to build a team and then help those people to achieve their goals. Some people do not want to get into that side of the AVON business opportunity, and that's ok. This business is one in which YOU decide what you want to put into it and what you want to get out of it ...

however ...

I would like to suggest, that if you AVON goal is purely to sell, and to enjoy the benefits of a commission, the opportunity to get products ahead of customers via the demo "What's New" books, that you take a look at working towards President's Club, and thus get double commission on lower campaign sales, when you have them.

The baseline 40% commission (25% on fixed earnings items) applies to not only face-to-face orders but to those made through your e-rep store as well, so if a customer orders $80 worth of fragrance, make up and SSS, you would receive $32 in commission v. $16. If someone orders $50 boots, you'll get $12.50 commission instead of $10. Those extra dollars add up and mean MORE MONEY IN YOUR POCKET.

If you are a representative who simply uses his/her AVON money to fund your own purchases, then look at it this way - a $200 order in a campaign would allow you to get more of your own wants.

If your goal for 2019 is Leadership, and you don't know how to start, contact me or your immediate upline and ask us for help, that's what we are here for, that's how we earn our bonuses. My "job" is to support you, in your business, to achieve the goals you make for yourself.

If you are already in Leadership but want to grow in title this year, begin by planning what you need to do in order to accomplish it and how you are going to work towards it.

Sometimes it helps by making a dream board, so that you see your goals every day and are encouraged to start that day afresh and with the mentality to "do it today".

You have to understand your "why" and stay focused on it.

Life gets in the way. We get sick, or the kids get sick. Family members or friends have trials and tribulations that can carry us away with them. We get exhausted. We end up over committed to what others need us for.

It's ok to take a step back and get through it, and then pick up again. That's the joy of having your own business.  Knowing your "why" will help you get re-focused when you are trying to get back "on track".

Do you know your "why"?

I wish you all a wonderful 2019 AVON year, and that you achieve all you set your mind to. I know I am well blessed with knowing you all, and with the opportunity AVON has given me
