Presented here are both sides of the argument,"Should I become an Avon representative?".

The Upside to Selling Avon

1. Immediate signup online for only $20.00 to start. Just go to www.youravon.com/pflanagan to get started.

2. No minimum sales requirements for each campaign. A campaign is a 2 week period.

3. Avon is a recognized name throughout the world. This means you don't have to convince people about the quality of the company or the products. Also, every product has a 100% guarantee.

4. Avon establishes a credit line for you. This means you are able to place orders with Avon, receive the products, deliver the products to your customers, then pay Avon. So, effectively, Avon is lending you money to start your own business! Very few companies will send you the products first and receive payment later. You have no large investment up front.

5. No required inventory - Instead, concentrate on selling and sharing Avon's opportunity with others for faster success.

6. Set your own hours - start part time or launch a full-time business, it's up to you.

7. There are orphaned customers who love Avon; they no longer have an Avon rep to order from!
The more people you talk to you'll discover these 'orphans'. They'll be excited to find you too!

8. It's fun to receive your order from Avon and share it with your customers!

The Downside to Selling Avon

1. Just like any business you get out of it what you put into it. You have to put in some effort to produce results.

2. You can't just drop Avon books here and there and expect orders, it takes some effort and planning.

3. It takes time to establish your business and build up a customer base. (True of most businesses)

4. It is not an 8 to 5 Monday through Friday business. Business can happen anytime and usually does.

5. Returns - Sometimes customers change their minds and take advantage of the Avon 100% satisfaction guarantee. That means you'll be sending the item back to Avon.

6. It's not for everyone, but it compares very well to other business opportunities available today.

Hopefully this article will help you if you are exploring different business opportunities. When making a decision it usually helps to step back and look at the pro's and con's before deciding. Keep in mind your are backed by a company that has over 100 years of tradition. With Avon you can be your own boss and set your own schedule with amazing earning potential. I wish you great success!
