What happened to Summer?! I can't believe how time flies sometimes. My team is still he same size as I haven't had a lot of time to go out canvassing lately. I feel so guilty about this and I'm practically kicking myself. Come on girl, do it!! My D/L is doing really well, recruiting left, right and centre!
At least the orders have picked up towards the end of this month, and I think C13 will be successful too with the New Car Prize Draw. The weather is good at the moment, so hopefully people will be thinking about looking good it the sunshine - well for this week anyway!
I'm hoping to do 2 lots of canvassing this afternoon, but really not looking forward to the door knocking part. The last time I did it, I had people saying no before I'd even opened my mouth. I've read somewhere that the best thing to do is turn the "no" into a positive. Write down "no" 100 times on a sheet of paper and cross one out every time someone says no. The idea is to try and get them all crossed out by the end of the month. Have a "NO" quota! It kinda makes the rejection a fun excercise and makes it less personal (I suppose). Well, I'll have a chance to test that theory this afternoon!
Wish me luck with the team building, and good luck to all Reps and S/Ls out there!

It's been a while...
Yes, I know, it's been a while since my last post, but things are going so well and I'm so busy!
My team now consists of 10 Representatives, 1 of which is currently a Trainee Sales Leader, but very soon to become a Sales Leader with 1 Sales Leader in her own team. If you're reading this, and you know who you are WELL DONE! And I don't mean that in a patronising way, you've done fantastically in your first Campaign as a trainee, you've really got what it takes to be a successful Sales Leader - actually you're making me look bad, you're doing so well! (joking)
I now need to build my team by another 5 at least, before September (when I go on holiday for 4 days) and I need to get Danny, my partner, set up as a Sales Leader. My aim is to be an Advanced Sales Leader by then. Although, with this weather being so crappy at the moment, I'm not going to get much canvassing done by then! I'm thinking of turning Danny's mobile phone repair shop into an Avon Emporium, at least that way, people can get out of the rain!
I really do have to come up with more ideas for recruiting. I am having an open house on the 15th August, for people to buy Sale items, learn more about being an Avon Rep and generally have a good time. I really need to get a move on with the preparations and maybe get a decent ad in the local paper, posters in the shop, in my livingroom window, in the car - everywhere I can basically!
Wish me luck and I'll keep plodding on til then!
