Selling Avon is Rewarding and Fun!

I first started selling Avon when I was in my early 20′s. Way before I started doing my MoneyMakingMommy.com gig! I had just gotten married and thought it might be something I’d like to do. I am very much an entrepreneurial spirit and I’ve always liked the idea of being my own boss and making my own money.

However, it just didn’t work out for me at the time. I was pregnant shortly after I signed up and we were suddenly moving away from my hometown in Indiana to a town almost 600 miles away in North Carolina where my husband had just taken a job.

So I gave up the idea of Avon for myself at that point. I ended up becoming an office manager of a real estate company when I first moved to NC, but soon sent out radio tape resumes to get back into working on the air in radio and I was quickly hired by a local rock station and between work and my son – I didn’t give Avon much thought. Plus there was a receptionist at the station I worked for that sold Avon and I could buy what I needed from her. Fast forward a few years….

In early 2002, the radio station closed it’s doors and I had two kids now. One of them, a one year old baby. I did not want to go back into radio or work another office job. I was burnt out. I was all over the internet looking for work at home. I knew I needed to bring some kind of income in to be able to stay home. The saddest part of my whole situation was that when I figured out how much money I actually brought home each week from my radio job after day care and commuting – I really only needed to make $400 a month. (This was a job I had experience and 4 year degree for? And I was really only making $400 a month! Wow!)

Started Selling Avon

One of the first things I did was sign up for Avon. I thought – I’ve always loved Avon products and I knew my NC town much better, had lots of neighbors – so I found the info for the local district manager and signed up. I have never looked back. I have a team of over 200 reps now and I make over $1100 a month. I know! That’s well above the $400 a I needed.

Yes – I Do Get – “But Selling Avon is Hard…”

It’s not easy. But it’s not hard. You DO have to put in effort. You can go to a million different Avon rep sites and they’ll all say…
OH it’s so easy – blah blah blah. I think they are just trying to get you to sign up. Me – I’m a little different. To be honest – I really DON’T want you to sign up if you’re going to do absolutely nothing with your Avon business and then complain to me that you aren’t making money. No thanks.  The ONLY way you’re going to make money selling Avon is by working at it. You can’t just throw a few brochures at
the local laundromat and think you’re going to make $1000 a month. It’s *not* going to happen.

What’s in it for Me Then – Why Work at My Avon Business?

-If you’ve not checked out an Avon brochure in years – you should – so many reasonably priced, awesome products. Huge variety!
-Earnings for the what you sell can range form 10% to 50% – if you keep that in mind, it can really add up!
-Avon helps you out in the beginning by giving you 40% earnings on what you sell your first two campaigns up to $125. That’s pretty generous. There is a lot of money to be made right there!
-There are a ton of training topics and videos on Avon’s site and you can earn rewards.
-Having your own business is empowering
-In many cases there are tax savings for having a home business
-Opportunity to build your own team and earn 3 to 9% of their sales, recruiting is fun!
-If you have an eRep Avon site, the customer can have products delivered straight from Avon.
-Avon is about getting the products YOU want – so everyone gets to have a personal experience.
-Avon now carries so much variety – you honestly will be shocked. Not just make up and skincare. There are home decor items, toys, kids clothes, purses, electronics – so much!
-All of Avon’s  products carry their well known money-back guarantee.

Cost of Becoming an Avon Rep

An Avon kit costs $10 plus $10 shipping and handling unless you meet the rep signing you up in person. Then you don’t pay shipping and handling and save $10.  So if you sign up with me below, online – you’ll pay $20 because we’re not meeting in person and the kit is being shipped to you from Avon.

Your Avon Kit Has Everything You Need to Get Started

The kit has training materials and 10 brochures each for your first two campaigns.

You can also get an Avon website for selling online too! I find it’s totally worth having my own eRep site. After all – my entire family is in Indiana – not here in North Carolina! So they can all buy from me and I still get the commissions. Granted – they pay some shipping (but a lot of times Avon offers FREE shipping on orders over $30!) An eRep site isn’t too pricey either -  it’s only $7.50 per campaign – basically $15 a month. Sometimes they do discounts. The eRep site you get is very professional and the do all the work of taking the order and shipping it etc.

Setting Goals for Your Avon Business and Commissions

Like I said before – if you’re not gonna work your Avon business – none of this matters. But if you’re smart about it , study the business structure and go into Leadership as well – there is money to be made. I am proof of that. I was sick right before Halloween last year and really couldn’t do my Avon business the last two weeks of October. I STILL got a check for $514 in commissions from my team’s sales and I got a check for $125 for reps I’d recruited prior to being sick that had placed their on time orders for $50.  So – I made almost $650 and I was sick! This was because I laid down the foundation prior to this – by having a customer base already in place for my eRep site and by going into Leadership and having a team in place. It didn’t happen over night – I worked on it step by step – but you see what I mean.
YOU set the pay scale.
For specifics…
On your first FOUR orders that you place (online) that are $50 or MORE, you’ll get paid 40% commissions.  (This does not count toward DEMO items or sales tools or business supplies). There are some items too that have fixed earnings – those are typically 20% in commissions – but you still get a commission of course.  They usually have some good bundle buys too on your first few campaigns – those can help with your sales a lot.

After those four campaigns – then commissions are based on exactly what you sell and how much you sell. It just depends.

What Else is Fabulous About Selling Avon?

If you get out there and really work on building your Avon business – there are cool things that come with that beyond just commissions. Avon reps can earn very nice trips, you can earn bonuses too.
