In an attempt to make some money from “home”, I started my own AVON business a couple years ago.  I wanted to really get involved in the company and make some money while making women feel good about the way they looked.

I did my homework on how to get more exposure and get more clientele.  I decided one good way to get my name out there was to look into my color printing options.  I eventually had some business cards made and some magnets the ladies could put on their fridges so my name and number would be handy.  It would have been nice to get some pens and maybe some stationary or something, but the point was to make money not spend it all on advertising!! =)

It was nice while it lasted.  I was spending more than I was making in the end, so I stopped selling AND buying…but I did enjoy myself for the 6 months or so that I was a Rep.    I should have done more homework on how to deal with a failing economy and gotten more involved with the meetings and all that, but who has the time.  Oh well, like I said, it was nice while it lasted….

Carry On!! =)
