Why I Believe in the Power of Avon!!!

When I became a representative, I was about 4 months pregnant with my first baby, working part time and in an unstable, unhealthy relationship. The reason I joined was to meet new people and earn some additional income. I was doing okay at first, averaging $100-200 in sales every 2 weeks. Then life threw some curveballs at me and I had to put my Avon business on hold for a few months. When I started back up, I was an unemployed, single new mother with very little money and in desperate need of a job that would allow me to be with my baby. I decided to put more time and effort into my Avon business and start treating it like a business, instead of a hobby. Knowing that it can take awhile to build a successful business, I also started teaching piano lessons part-time to give me some steady, guaranteed income to fall back on.

Now I have a few representatives on my own team and we are all working together to achieve our goals and dreams by sharing Avon and inspiring others! I have met so many amazing and interesting people along the way in my journey so far and know that there is so much more to come. It's exciting being in a business that allows me to be creative, have fun, be social and spread smiles! Plus, Avon's products are fantastic and affordable so they are easy to sell!

Perhaps the best part of being an Avon rep: I have learned so much about myself and other people. I used to be stuck inside my shell with very low self esteem. Avon changed my whole attitude and outlook on life - I have done things now that I never thought I would be able to do! Every time I do something new and scary - like sharing samples and catalogs with random women in the mall - I become more and more confident and feel fulfilled in my life. The fact that I have the ability to make other people smile and offer solutions to their problems makes me indescribably happy.

Before Avon I was a caterpillar trying to find its way... Now I am a butterfly, spreading my wings and flying high!
