How and why did you get started with Avon Sales Leadership? Debbie We needed money desperately to pay our rent, as I had been made redundant from work and it was nearing Christmas time. I started off as an Independent Avon Representative and wanted to see how much money I could actually earn. As I used the products myself I knew I could sell them to others, I started with my family and friends as customers and the business grew from there.
What difference has Avon Sales Leadership made to your life? David It’s been a fantastic roller coaster ride, that has completely changed our lives. We have gone from being very introverted people, to talking to anybody and our confidence has grown and grown. Debbie was especially shy and now she loves talking to people about Avon. Avon has also given us an amazing lifestyle, having come from a humble background we have now found something that has worked for us, that we are both good at, it’s great! We are lucky enough now to be in a position where we don’t have to watch the pennies anymore. Debbie Initially all we wanted was to have enough money to pay our bills and go away on a holiday. Before
