Achieve THROUGH SALES SUCCESS2

Introduction:

As an Independent Avon Sales Leadership Representative, we believe the new Representatives you appoint and train can have the kind of life they’ve always dreamed of.

The “Achieve Through Sales Success” book is the ideal tool to help you show your new Representative how to build (his or) her business as she begins to make Customer contacts and take her first orders. Using the “Achieve Through Sales Success” book together with Avon brochures, skincare samples and demonstration products, you will teach your new Representative skills that will help her reach beyond family and friends to build upon her Invitation list.

Over the course of our three Achieve Through Sales Success Conversations, you will share with your new Representative Avon’s proven formula for sales success.

During Conversation 1, you’ll talk about how to place her first order and how to handle delivery to her Customers. Then you’ll share ideas for growing her Invitation list, and introduce her to some amazing skincare products.

During Conversation 2, you’ll share more ways to expand her Invitation list, talk about how Avon’s most successful Representatives use their brochures and samples to create Customer excitement, and build on her skincare selling experience with Anew.

Conversation 3 expands from a one on one meeting to a larger session. You will be with a group of Representatives where you’ll ask them to share experiences and ideas, and talk about creative and fun ways to continue to build their sales, especially with Avon’s Solutions skincare products.

Conversations 1 and 2 are conducted from the Achieve book − “Achieve Through Sales Success”.

My Immediate Goals:

SAY

• Let me get my calculator out.

• How many Customers do you have so far? Fill that number in. (For example: 8) ➀

• And how much have you had in sales so far? And does that include personal purchases?

• Let’s take out your personal purchases and just list sales from actual Customers on the second line. (For example: $176)

• Now let’s calculate your average Customer order. Divide your Sales by your number of Customers. (For example: $22).

• Now you’ve serviced 8 Customers so far. I remember you had more names on your Invitation list. Do you have your list with you?

• How many people did you have on your list? (For example: 52)

• So that’s 44 more potential Customers.

• There are 7 more selling days in this Campaign, so how many more people can you contact and sell to before your order is due?

How have you done?

Page 13: Achieve Through Success - Avon Upline Guide

GUIDE FOR Upline Leaders 13

SAY

• (Discuss the remaining potential Customers on the Representative’s list). OK, so write that number on the next line. (For example: 20).

• That’s great. Now we’ll calculate your potential sales that you could make in the Campaign by taking 20 potential Customers plus your 8 actual Customers. That’s 28. Write 28 in the first box – number of Customers.

• Now multiply that by your average order of $22 dollars.

• OK, and what does that come to? That’s right, $616. So write 616 in the Sales box.

• Now we said your discount percent would be 40% so list that in the Discount % box.

• Now multiply $616 by 40%, that’s right, your potential earnings for your first Campaign is $246.40.

• Finally, list your first goal from your Believe book (for example, dishwasher), and the amount needed to achieve it (for example, $500) and by when on the bottom of the page.

• So let's take $500 minus $246.40 – so you need $253.60 to achieve your goal.

• You’re off to a great start to achieve your goal!

• In a few minutes we’ll talk about ways to add more Customers to your list, and how to increase your average Customer order with skincare sales.

• Then at the end of this Achieve Through Sales Success Conversation, you’ll have the opportunity to plan for your second and third Campaigns, and you’ll see how soon your earnings can start adding up!

ACTIVITY

• Show the Avon Skincare Selector Tool and have the current Campaign brochure ready. ➁

• Review the questions on the Skincare Selector Tool and demonstrate to the Representative how to use it to find her skincare brand.

• Once she has chosen a brand, show the summary of the 3 brands on the Selector Tool, review the brand she has selected and demonstrate a sample from the brand. ➂

• Next, review the Selector Tool for Anew or Clearskin ➃ (if she has selected one of those brands), so she can find the product line in that brand that meets her skincare needs.

• After she has chosen a product line, ask her to look in the brochure to become familiar with the products in her regimen or product line.

• Ask: “Which products are you interested in using from your regimen or product line? Be sure to place an order for those products in your current order so you can begin to use Avon skincare products.” ➄

• Ask: “Do you have any questions about how to use the Skincare Selector Tool?”

• Encourage the Representative to take the selector tool with her when she meets with Customers to be sure to help them choose the right skincare brand to meet their needs. Also suggest that she has samples of products from each line to demonstrate to her Customers.

• Review how to overcome Customer objections. Say, “Overcome objections by sharing your personal experience. “I felt the same way – I never thought it was worth it to do all those skincare steps they recommend. But when I started using Anew, I found that I could really see the difference in my skin. Now I know what I’m doing is really paying off for me!” ➅

• Summarize the Inform step by reviewing the “Power of Skincare” box on page 17. ➆

• Encourage Representatives to learn more about skincare.

This allows her to optimize her 40% earnings and ensure any incentives that are currently running. (This also ensures the Upline Representative qualifies for BIYS Bonus and other programs, i.e.; Nesting program.))

• Inform Customers by using the products yourself, help them choose the right products with selector tools and samples, and use the “felt-found” technique to overcome objections (share your own and other Customers' testimonials).

• Inspire Customers to try before they buy with samples or trial size products, if available, mention special offers from the brochure and demo magazines, and mention the 100% satisfaction guarantee.

• Inspire and share your excitement about your Avon business you everyone you meet. Invite them to the next Avon Opportunity Meeting.

InformHow is the Power of Skin Care working for you?

I am regularly using Avon skin care products and can speak to the benefits.

I am helping Customers choose products by using the Avon Skin Care Selector Tool.

I am sharing experiences to help overcome objections and inspire Customer purchases.

Share experiences and overcome objections with the “felt-found” technique. “At first, my other Customers felt the same way, but after using Avon products, they found their skin looked great!”

Inform Customers about the Power of Skin Care and handle any objections with these proven techniques:

• Discuss Benefits: Recommend products that meet your Customers’ needs and interests.

• Identify Issues: If you sense hesitation, ask more questions. Is it the price? Skin concerns?

• Share Experiences: The best way to overcome objections is to share your experiences.

– “Selling skincare is the foundation of a successful Avon business.”

– “On average, Representatives selling skincare have 6 times higher sales than Representatives who do not sell skincare.”

– “In our last conversation, we talked about how using Avon’s skincare personally pays off in two ways: you’ll have great looking skin and higher sales and earnings from skincare when you share your personal experience!”

• Remind the Representative of her plan to order her personal skincare products and samples. Ask as she answers the questions on page 30:

– “How is Avon skincare working for you?” ➀

– “How are you using the Avon skincare selector tools with your Customers?”

– “What skincare objections have you heard from your Customers?” ➁

SAY

• Present and sell the benefits of Anew:

– Recommend products that meet your Customers’ needs and interests.

– When selling Anew skincare regimens explain the anti-aging technology that makes Anew regimens the most advanced way to look younger. We’ll talk about the great benefits of Anew products when we turn to the next page.

• Identify Issues:

– When Customers respond negatively to your recommendations, ask open-ended questions to identify the reason for their reluctance.

– The more you know, the better you become at anticipating their issues. Is it the price? Unfamiliarity with the benefits of skincare regimens? Skin sensitivity concerns?

• Share experiences:

– Use the felt-found technique to overcome objections. Share your experiences and those of your Customers.

– For example, to sell the complete Anew regimen you might say, “I understand how you feel. I wasn’t sure why I needed to use all the products. But I tried the regimen and I can see why they say using all 3 steps of the regimen helps you maximize the visible anti-aging benefits for your skin.”

DO

• Review how to Inspire the three most common types of Avon Customers to buy more products. Say something like:

– “Customers who like to treat themselves to new products can be inspired to maximize the benefits with one or two related items. This is called link selling. Link selling is simply combining new products with related products. For example, combine a new mascara with an eyeliner or eye shadow, or combine a new eye cream with the regimen’s day or night cream moisturizer.”

– “Customers who like the convenience of shopping with Avon for products they use often and enjoy special offers will be inspired by product bundles. Create bundles such as a bath and body gift set with body lotion, bath gel, and a fragrance, or create a skincare makeover kit with a cleanser, moisturizer, eye cream and treatment product. Add a special offer to each bundle for a perfect gift!”

– “Customers who look for the best skincare products will benefit from connecting categories of products. This is called cross-category selling. Connect skincare with body care products such as Skin So Soft Renew and Refresh.”
