My first Rep appointment - "toute seule" (alone)

As a Trainee Sales Leader it would be early days for me to go and appoint a new REP or Sales Leader by myself, but needs must!

My Rep had to cancel yesterday and my Area Sales Leader was really busy today, so having done one meeting with her on Tuesday for training, I said this is a friend I am appointing next, she is really bright and it will be ok for me to go along with the start up bag and brochures to explain and sign her up alone if need be. SO I DID IT!

I didn't need to explain everything in as much detail as I would on a normal first meeting because for one, I know her really well and secondly she was round on Sunday looking through my own AVON bits and bobs and had a very good idea of how it all worked.

I took a copy of my notes (that I had put into a previous blog), my Area Sales Leader came by with the start up bag and the brochures and gave me a quick coffee prep-talk before hand and off I went.

It was a breeze! In fact trying to arrange appointments whilst in training, ie making sure that the new REP is available at the same time as the ASL can sometimes be quite difficult - to get all three of us in sync, so I actually can't wait to be flying-solo!
