Are You The Reason You're Not Getting The Prospect?

The First Commandment of a Avon Representative

"Any Prospect Is A Good Prospect"

 
The mindset by which you approach a prospect determines the final outcome more than Anything Else you do. Therefore, your fame of mind should be friendly, confident, smiley, self-assured, enthusiastic, positive, and completely prepared. On your mind? You should be thinking about the customers. 


 
That's a great commandment but what do you do when you wake up late, have a nine o'clock appointment and still have to drop your teenager off at school? Your mindset is negative, unsure, nasty, and unprepared.
 
 
 
The first step in the process of changing your belief system is to monitor your thoughts. And the next step is to control them through the power of choice.



According to a study "self-talk" is 150-300 word per minute. And it is thought that 40% of the messages in your mind are negative and self-critical. What you can do is choose to reframe your negative thought, and choose to let the voice in your mind talk about happy things.
 
 


Choosing to change your mind changes your attitude. We all have days when we believe we will not get the prospects and there is really no reason to go out and prospect for customers and downline.

 
You will always have to deal with difficult, awkward and unresponsive people. When this happens to you, do not dwell on it and sink into despondency. Instead just forget about it, move on and start all over again.



In addition, you set the tone for the outcome with enthusiasm, attitude and by putting your belief system into place. Thinking you will get the prospect is dependent on your self-confidence. In return, self-confidence is based on your preparation.
 

 
We need to learn about our world everyday. And learning about our techniques will enable us to give ourselves those confident thoughts.

Why You Should Be Using Trial-Sizes

The customers of Avon Representatives will almost always buy an Avon product if given the trial-size for free. People love free stuff and they especially like the trial-sizes because they see it as a “large gift” and have more of the product to try then with a small sample.


People today are hesitant to spend their hard-earned money on something new, unless they receive a recommendation from a friend, family member or other trusted source. But if Avon Representative offers them a trial-size of a product for free, two things happen; first they are allowed to test the product without any risk, and second a law of reciprocity kicks in, they will feel compelled to buy.


There are many ways to use this cost-effective way of letting Avon customers try an item. Avon Representatives should be on the look out for trial-sizes on sale in the brochures, flyers, and the outlet (you need to be giving your customers a outlet, they will be grateful to get the items for some cheap and will sometimes make a larger order). I also look on eBay for Avon Representatives who having an going out of business sale. However, calculate the cost per each item before bidding.


When giving trial-sizes away try to give them to people who would most likely use the item, your target market. Then tell them they can get the large size from you and try to get contact information. Also remember to give any instructions on how to use the product. And if you can, write down who got what, to follow up later.


I am going to give away some trial sizes of Anew and a coupon in campaign 4. Doing this I hope you boost sales, find new customers through referrals and lower my costs of marketing and customer acquisition.


Ways Avon Representatives Can Use Trial-Sizes

Promote a product

Gift for large order

Give to most loyal customers

Welcome to Avon gifts for first order

Pass out when out about with business card

Gift for when customer gives a referral

Give to customer so they can give them to friend or family to try and then get a referral

For you or customer to try a new product to be able to recommend it to others



Try this idea and let me know if it works for you as it has with me, I would really like to hear.
