How to Approach Strangers with your Avon business

How to approach strangers with your Avon business

People always ask me…how do you approach strangers…

Everybody always asks me…WHAT DO YOU SAY….when you hand out sample packs/mini catalogs??

They say…“I just don’t know what to say”

Ready for it??? This is monumental…this is going to be a turning point in your career….pay very close attention…..you ready for it????……………..”Do you mind if I leave this with you?” 

-she’ll say……. “Sure, what is it?”
-and you’ll say…. “I help people with their beauty needs”. Don’t just say…I sell Avon. But say, I help people with their beauty needs, you peek their interest and open the conversation to…”really? what do you do?” or “how”.

**if she acts interested at all, you say…if you write your name and email down I can add you to my email list and you’ll be the first to see all the new products. A great way to remind yourself to do this is to put a post it note on the front of each sample pack or  mini catalog.

All you need to make your own is…………

-a mini catalog (Outlet or flyers) (optional)

-a mini opportunity booklet (or any opportunity flyer you have)

-Fundraiser flyer

-business card with a Coupon on it

- 1 or 2 samples (fragrance, cologne, lipstick bullet, etc.) 

 ****Side note: you can place everything inside a small snack bag or with the mini-catalog staple the flyer or insert the flyers inside the catalog

#1 Where do you put the mini catalogs/sample packs?

IN YOUR PURSE!!
IN YOUR CD VISOR
IN YOUR FRONT SEAT

**every Sunday….make up 25 mini’s….and put half of them in your purse and half of them in your CAR! Your job each week is to hand out 25 mini catalogs/sample packs a week to complete strangers…

Who do you leave them with??

*** EVERYONE!!!! When you go into the……

-grocery store, give it to the teller
-bank, send it in the tube
-gas station, give it to the clerk
-library, give it to the lady checking you out
-walmart, give it to the cashier
-doctor, leave some for the staff
-dollar store, give to the cashier
-WORK…leave in the BATHROOMS, breakrooms…
-servers….attach your bill to the mini catalog

ANYONE you come into contact with. And when you get really good at this…you not only go into the dollar store you intended to, but you go into the store NEXT DOOR! Why not? You’re already THERE!

AND WHAT DO WE SAY WHEN WE HAND THEM OUT????? “Do you mind if I leave this with you???”

Now one more thing that’s fun to do……

You CAN get some kiddy looking goody bags and a sticker book, mini notepads, and a pack of 64 crayons at your dollar store. Put some stickers, two sheets of paper folded over, 2 crayons, and a mini catalog packet. Hand them to rowdy kids in stores-the moms will love you.
