Ordering Business Tools: Brochures, Demos & Samples to Build Your Business
Your Avon Brochures are your store and like every
department store, you can offer free samples or be
the “spritz person” by having products for your
Customers to see, smell and try.
This tool will guide you through how to reinvest in your business with a variety of business tools.
Deciding how to reinvest in your business: At the end of each campaign, successful Representatives total up their
Customer sales and determine a percent or a flat dollar amount of their potential earnings that they are comfortable in
reinvesting. For example, your sales for the campaign are $300 and you’re at the 40% earning level. That would be
$120 in estimated earnings. If you are willing to reinvest 20% of your earnings, that would be $24 to reinvest in business
tools.
All business supplies that you order count towards your Award Sales and your Earning Level Percent! After creating
your order on yourAVON.com under the My Orders Tab and determining the amount you are willing to reinvest in your
business, click on Order Demos from the grey menu bar on the left.
Ordering Demonstration Products: The “What’s New” flyer is your business planning tool for two campaigns into the future, so when you are placing your
order for C12, you will be reviewing the “What’s New” for C14. This allows you to choose appropriate demo products
and samples to go with the C14 brochures that you will also be ordering.
“What’s New” includes several key sections (see pictures on next page):
A. A Top Seller profile to inspire you and share a few hints and tips.
B. Advanced Order Pack offers which offer additional discounts for a
multi-product pack. You advance sell these products at brochure
price and earn the difference.
C. All products that will be brand new in that upcoming brochure will
be introduced to you at a 5% greater discount than you earn on
the current campaign’s sales.*
D. Scented pages of any upcoming fragrances.
E. New tools that are available to you will be featured in the
“What’s New”
F. Selling tips and suggestions for the current campaign.
G. Store Map for the current campaign.

Ordering Brochures:
Each brochure that you present to a potential Customer is a store that you have open. Brochures are sold in packs of 10
and the price per pack decreases the more you buy. They are also available in Spanish and you can mix and match with
English to get the price breaks.
Advanced Selling Tips:
1. Keep your Demos and their boxes in good condition and you can use them to fill your Customers
orders and recover your investment.
2. Create a “Demo Bank.” In C1, decide on your investment in demos. Each campaign, after showing
your demos, sell them at brochure price and reinvest that amount into next campaign’s demos. If you do
that for the entire year, you have a nice bank of money to invest in holiday demos. At the close of C26,
you can spend, save or splurge the total amount and start over in the new year. Example: Invest $20 in
C1 and sell those demos for $35; invest the $35 in C2 and sell those demos for $60; invest the $60 in C3
and sell those demos for $95 and so on.
3. Use Samples to create “Lumpy Brochures.” Fold up all of the scented pages to create book marks and
then add 2-3 additional skin care, personal care or color samples by taping them on the page on which
they are featured. This creates a ‘lumpy’ feeling and entices the Customers to find those offers.
After you have entered all of your
Customer orders, chosen your
demos, samples and sales tools, you
will click on “Continue to Sales
Tools.” This will take you to a page
similar to this one where you can
order Avon Brochures and mark.
Magalogs along with any other
special offers.
