After receiving a notice from Betty, that I was among the top ten in sells after the Christmas holiday, those customers that I had sold to, did not want to purchase as much. She removed MY online access to the account.
2005 I just finally sent them a personal check to make them stop hounding me since none of the district managers were available to resolve the unfair charges made on an account they prematurely removed my access from. I never made the orders, The Avon account itself could not make orders and receive electronic payments... And Avon managers did not have access to my pin # to allow efts. To clear... Thank God they didn't or else I'd still be billed for whatever electronically.
Noone at Avon assists a "former represenative" after the managers determine to remove their access to place orders. I was left holding the "empty bag" from Avon, that I was billed for and never ordered. The company kept sending me notices of overdue and unpaid charges on the account that I could not access and did not recognize the delima.
Avon has what appeared to be some smoothe operaters when it came to selling the oportunity for women by a so-called "running your own business" scenerio with agressive amount of pushing their products on this former represenative. While most of the represenatives are out selling these good items the District managers are sitting back reaping in the profit gains from all the fees they charge to become a "respected sales lady". Christmas seemed to be a glorious time of the year for this one, thanks to the hard selling reps. Under her after she's snagged enough worker bees to meet her district quota she goes into hiding. I doubt if the Company actually knows who's working for them in this type of business. Or if they do really care.
At first I thought it was a good way to earn extra money and sell a product that was truly a good product because I know of many who has sold it for years. That was way back last year, when a co-worker and friend invited me to join Avon and become a represenative under her. She was forced to quit as well after not meeting the managers same "expected sales" each and every month.
