Avon sales boosters help?

Question

I just started selling Avon. I am selling locally and as an E-rep.

Anyone have ideas on how to boost sales? I passed out catalogs. I have ordered business cards and they should be here soon. I posted ads on Craigslist and keep the link in my signature on the Cafemom website and put the link as my source on YAhoo answers.

What else can I do. I have only made 2 sales and they were both from family!

Answer 1

It's so frustrating.  ONly 2 out of every 500 Avon reps make a profit. All of the rest make 2 sales to family and 1 to a neighbor. Most Avon reps end their career in the negative.  They actually lose a little money.  The only advice i can give you is to try your best but do not hang on long after it is clear that it isn't working. Maybe you'll be one of the 2. /
