I have been selling Avon for the last year to suppplement my income. I really enjoy it, as I work at my own pace and you really get out of it what you put in. My DM is always available when I need her, as well as other Reps if I feel that I am having a difficult time. As a part-time career, you really get to set it aside to focus on achieving work/life – more... balance. The hardest part is constantly keeping my name out there, bringing in new clientele, because I can be very shy, however I feel the best sense of satisfaction when I am able to come through for those clients who have allergies, or experience skin sensitivity, or those who really just want my honest opinion and it turns out for the best! – less

you plan your day in your own
you learn knowing people and dealing with them
the manager do the followup
and the team is great you meet at the meetings or at the products presentations
the hardest part is recruding new sales representatives under yourself
the enjoyable part is proping the brochures and discribing the products to the customer.

Even though I had gone around to customers and told them about AVON's products to sell them, not only did it make me realize what I may need, but I also realized who else needs these products. With the amount of information I have with those products, I could probably sell more than I can imagine. The knowledge that you have with the products is what – more... makes sales. The hardest part of the job is to keep finding more customers to make sales. The enjoyable part is that AVON products keeps the customers satisfied. – less

I work my own hours. I've learned a lot about managing my own business and preparing for taxes. I have the best District Sales Manager and Support person I could ever ask for. The hardest part of my job is to motivate my team members and get them as excited about selling and leadership as I am. I enjoy meeting new people and providing customer service.

Responsible for profits and expenditures for 1.5 million dollar district.
Turn around specialist in motivating, recruiting, training, sales presentation and seminars.
Day to day activities varied which made job fantastic.
Opportunities to develop professionally and personally were immense.

This was a side job, that enabled me to socialize with my community, all my products where mailed to me and I cashed the profits that I made as I received a percentage in my bank account.

I have been gone from Avon for years now. But back when I joined it was a great place to work. After only a year or so, with the company, they started laying off and closing locations. Everything sufered accordingly and it was a terrible place to work.

I chose when to work. I learned that if I wanted to make the sales I needed I had to get over being shy around new people.

Typical work day consists of tight deadlines, meetings and designing.
Learned to manage my time, work closely with team members and management to align with business initiatives and track profits as pertains to spread and page designs.
Hardest part of the job was juggling multiple assignments.
Most enjoyable was working with talent, i.e. models, photographers,
stylists – more... and artists and marketing colleagues. – less

Maintain and check product location to ensure merchandise is in bin, if not I will place an order and when order is filled, I will use forklift to pick up merchandise from the warehouse. I have learned how to be efficient in placing orders and maintain quality and stock levels. I work very close with management daily and communicate with coworkers about – more... product levels. The hardest part of my job is maintaining high quality levels and error free product. The most enjoyable part is working with others and able to see the good end results of doing my job daily. – less

A typical day at Avon was that i enjoyed selling the products

I think this job is exciting because I work my own hours and it gives me a sense of being on my own in the business world. I meet many people and I manage my own accounts and money. I am like my own accountant when it comes to this job. I like being able to be my own accountant and learn more about owning my own business.

I only am able to work this small time business a limited time, but still enjoy self employment

A multi-culture company with many oppurtunites for growth.
Great at cross training employees
