Sales Brochure
What is the best way to advertise?
Hi, I’m an Avon Sales Rep and I’m having trouble getting costumers, despite my efforts. Every two weeks I order 50 brochures, I give my existing costumers each a brochure (About 10 people) then I leave about 40 brochures in different places around where I live. I have left brochures at a variety of different places and so far I’ve only got 2 new costumers from it. I’ve been doing this for 2 1/2 months. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to advertise my personal Avon business better?
When you have an Avon business you have to think outside the box. Since there is such a low cost to become a rep there are hundreds of reps in any given area. At least it seems to me. So basically you have to do things differently.
Have you had a home party with your existing customers yet? if not, you can have each person bring as many people as possible and offer them a 5% discount on their next order for every person they bring that buys something.
And don’t just have a regular Tupperware-esque party, liven it up, cool music, virgin pina colada’s or margarita’s, lei’s etc.
You can also create a gift basket or two with some of your products and other stuff from the dollar store and offer a contest to get new customer leads. You can either buy a box and black entry forms at a craft store and leave it at a local beauty shop or you can donate the baskets with a stack of coupons to a local charity event.
Try a cross promotion with a local beauty shop or nail salon.
Something along the lines of a coupon they can give their customers for a discount on their first purchase from you (getting them in the door is the first step) and you can give your customers the salon’s coupon.
Best of luck,

The Good News about Point of Sale Brochures
With the basic elements intact, brochures can effectively attract people. But to further increase the number of interested individuals, companies must think of strategic locations where the brochures will be placed and distributed. This will lessen the effort of mailing brochures one by one to each prospective client. Brochures printing will aid you in attracting potential customers and gaining immediate response and action from them. Businesses assume that brochure printing will help them to market their products and services to a wide variety of people.
Brochures can be best placed at point of sales or point of services. POS can be at a retail shop, a checkout counter in a shop or anywhere in which a transaction occurs. POS are often used in supermarkets, restaurants, hotels and other establishments. Placing your brochures at POS is very effective and can convince people to avail the products that you offer.
For example, if you have discount promos on your products, you can place your brochures in supermarkets, malls or retail establishments near your place. The consumers who will be having a transaction can surely see your brochures displayed at POS, and there is a 99.9 percent possibility that they will get one copy for them. This is because first, the brochures are for free, second, they won’t be wasting their time getting a copy since they are just waiting for their transactions to be processed, and third, they are attracted and interested with the promos and discounts that you offer.
POS brochures have the ability to gain actionable response. If the people have read your brochures and have learned about the promos and discounts, after their transaction at that certain retail store, they will be interested to avail those promos. This is possible especially if your shop is near the place where you have placed your brochures.
This is good news for a lot of companies out there because they have an alternative way of marketing their services. POS brochures can help them sell, attract more clients and achieve their goals.
