Income Producing Activities To Grow Your Avon Business

When you first get started in your Avon business, it’s so easy to get caught up in the rut of getting ready to get started, but we never actually focus on the activities that will help us grow.

We feel we need to learn all about the products and the compensation plan.

…Or how to do the social media part, or build a blog. Maybe we’re watching videos, studying this, and studying that…

Before you know it, a month has gone by, and all the effort you’ve put into your business hasn’t earned you a penny.

Growing your Avon business is pretty simple.

There are only 4 main steps:

  1. Prospecting for new customers & recruits.
  2. Getting a brochure (either paper or digital) to every customer every campaign.
  3. Following-up with every customer you gave a brochure to every campaign before you place your order.
  4. Take the order, submit it to Avon and deliver to your customer, or send them to your Avon Online Store to place their order

And then Rinse and Repeat.

It’s really that simple. You just do these 4 steps over and over again, and you will have a strong Avon business.

We have our Daily 8 System to help you work on the activities that will help you grow your business.

The Daily 8 system is a proven formula

When followed consistently, the Daily 8 Plan will help you maintain the consistency required to build a thriving team and an exponentially expanding residual income.

Instead of working 8 hours a day, 40 hours a week your goal is to capture 8 POINTS a day, 5 days a week for a total of 40 POINTS per week.

Print this sheet and use it to track your weekly points.

Follow this plan consistently for 90-days and teach your team to do the same. At the end of 90 days, REPEAT and then REPEAT again. This is your Daily Method of operation.

The real secret to your Avon Business success is that there is NO SECRET!

It simply takes a simple plan and the dedication and commitment to WORK THE PLAN consistently! That’s it!

Today We’ll Talk About Income Producing Activities to Grow Your Business

If you’re not careful, time has gone by, and all the effort you’ve put into your business hasn’t earned you a penny.

Yes, it’s important that we know the products, and learn how to run our business, but those activities are not what is going to bring you an income.

Many of us, especially when we’re first getting started with Avon, have limited time to work our business. We have other commitments, like a J.O.B., or our families, etc. Many of us come to Avon looking for a part-time gig in order to make some additional money.

So it’s important that we do the activities that will make us money. 80% of our time should be spent on Income Producing Activities, and the other 20% should be spent on training and managing our business.

So, what are Income Producing Activities?

In my opinion, they are Talking to People and Building Relationships, Actively Marketing Your Business, and Following Up.

First of all you need a plan. You should never go to bed with a plan for what you’re going to do tomorrow. Otherwise it’s too easy for tomorrow to go by and you realize you’ve accomplished nothing.

Success requires action. Plan specific activities every day that will help you connect with people, move your business forward, and put money in your pocket.

Think about the small pockets of time you have available, as well…. Waiting for your son’s baseball game to start, waiting at the doctor’s office, etc. You can make the best use of your time by sending a few texts or making a call while you are waiting.

The more you do, the faster you will reach your goals.

Schedule Time Slots in your calendar for the days and times you will dedicate to working your business daily, weekly, and monthly. Highlight those slots and fill them in with business building activities.

Carry and share brochures and samples everywhere you go. Make sure your brochures have your contact information, as well as your Avon online store to shop.

Set a goal to connect with 5 people or more every day. Connections lead to relationships that lead to success. Complete the connection by getting their contact information so you can add them to your contact list. Follow up within 48 hours to keep your connection fresh and show your interest in them and their needs.

Remember, you can do this virtually as well as in person.  If you’re looking to build your Avon business online, find ways to connect with people on social media.  Then take it to Messenger to have a private conversation.

Here are some Conversation Starters to help you:

“You can’t find our products in stores — only through Avon brochures and your local Avon Representatives. If you’re interested, I’d love to show you some of our best sellers and help you find products that would be great for you.”

“Avon has everything. I really love/am obsessed with (insert your fave Avon product here). Can I give you a sample?”

Be sure to talk about the Avon Income Opportunity as well. When you invite others to start their own business too, they’re usually flattered, even if they say No. If they’re not interested, ask for referrals – everyone knows someone who may need extra income or who loves beauty, but they won’t think of it until you ask. Be bold – you never know whose life you may be changing by your offer.

Here are some Conversation Starters for the Opportunity:

“I love selling Avon. It’s so much fun and doesn’t feel like work — it’s easy talking about products people use every day. I make great money, too. Do you know anyone who might like to do this themselves?”

“Do you know anyone who might be interested in earning extra income? Even if they only have a couple of hours a week?”

Post on social media regularly. It’s a fast, super-effective way to build sales and build your team as you share who you are, what you love about Avon, and our latest amazing products.

Have frequent get-togethers with friends and ask them to bring new friends you haven’t met yet. Share your favorite products and enjoy building new relationships that could lead to new customers and new Representatives on your team.

Can’t do this because of Covid?  Host them virtually, either via Zoom or Facebook Live.  There are always options to connect with people.

Schedule meet-ups at local cafes or restaurants and bring the newest lipsticks and fragrances for fun sampling and networking. Schedule about 30 minutes to share brochures and your favorite new products.

I realize this is not really possible with Covid.  For now, hold them outside with masks if possible.  But the pandemic will be gone soon and then you’ll be able to do more of this.

Pick Up The Phone:

  • Call someone you haven’t seen in a while and invite them to coffee or lunch. Get reacquainted.
  • Call someone who does business with you (like your insurance agent or realtor) and set an appointment
  • Call a friend or acquaintance and ask tell them a little about what you are doing. Offer to bring them a sample, send a video via email or messenger, etc. Just something to get the conversation started.

FOLLOW UP via Phone, Email or Messenger.

Did you know that 90% of your sales occur, because you followed up with someone?

Take the time to follow up through any means that you can. It’s one of the most important activities in your business.
