Tax and the Avon opportunities

You may have heard about and seen some of the recent press coverage about HM Revenue and Customs focusing on direct sellers and self-employed businesses.

To support you here is some useful information regarding tax and your Avon business. As with anyone who runs a self-employed business, as a Representative or Sales Leader you need to make sure that your business complies with tax and National Insurance requirements. This is detailed in the information that you received when you started your Avon business.

As a business Avon cannot give independent financial advice. However HM Revenue and Customs has lots of information available via their website or helpline.

    It's a good idea to
  1. Keep all appropriate records regarding your accounts i.e. invoices, returns records etc.
  2. Register with HM Revenue & Customs as self-employed. To do this you can either contact your local Tax Officecall the HM Revenue & Customs Helpline for the newly self-employed on 08459 15 45 15visit their website www.hmrc.gov.uk/selfemployed
    This information is also available by:
    As a Representative
  1. reading the Important Information flyer you received when you started.
  2. visiting the Representative website 'How to Guides'.
    As a Sales Leader
  1. Talk to the Representatives and downlines in your team so that they are confident about what they need to do.

Prospecting Perseverance!

Today I have to blog about one of my sales leaders Dawn Eccles

Dawn has 2 boys aged 3 and 7 and Dawn has been an Avon lady for 4 years now and is a Presidents Club Member too.

Recently Dawn found the pressures of her Full time job too much and decided to try a "Work From Home Business" with Avon Sales Leadership.

Not only has she taken to the business like a duck to water she has become such a vibrant and energetic woman with it.  She has  managed to inspire others to follow her lead in such a short space of time that she is clearly a natural born leader.

With only 1 hour here and one hour there Dawn manages her time and prioritizes it impeccably.  Just this morning she text me to say "Off out Prospecting this morning, wish me luck"....

Within minutes another text pings through "WooHoo, the 1st door I knocked and I got a new team member!"

There is no way that you could teach this type of enthusiasm, you simply have it or you don't.

Dawn is an inspiration to other women out there that don't think they could possibly manage running a business around their kids.  Well she proves you can!

Inspiring people come in all shapes sizes ages and colour, who is your inspiration and why don't you aspire to be the same?

7  tips for productive prospecting

1. Always make time to do it! regardless of how you "Feel" about it.  Prospecting builds your confidence and every recruiter should be doing it.

2. Don't be put of by the No's, it isn't personal it just isn't for them today.

3. Remember why you are prospecting...You are offering an amazing opportunity for someone to Earn An Extra Income.

4. Prospecting is not about YOU!..Sell the opportunity & the benefits correctly and confidently and the rest happens naturally

5. Always have a personal "Leads Book" a small note pad for the names and numbers of people that show an interest

6. Follow up on those prospects, each month make a call to those that haven't joined yet, their personal circumstances may have changed by now and this might be the right time!

7. The more you prospect the more team members you will find (It's the law of averages) If you ask 100 people and 1 says Yes, then ask 200 tomorrow and get 2 Yes's!

HAPPY PROSPECTING
