Chez2 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 RiDO will be able to tell you who can help with advice on putting together your own business. If they can't help they will direct you to an organisation that can help you. http://www.ridobusinesscentres.co.uk/tenant-support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon26 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 If you're going to do Avon then recommend you check which houses have said no before. I used to phone the number and say NO to them, they'd stop for a while then I presume someone new comes along and starts leaving the books again. They never seem to return for them so they go in the blue bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laura16 Posted September 27, 2016 Share Posted September 27, 2016 The reason for that is there's no way of a new rep knowing who had the road before but the turn over of reps shouldn't be that often. I always advise to put a tick box on the book so people can opt out so that should minimise the inconvenience to you. It is a bit of a pain but I think it depends on your area and whether the rep sticks with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So after 10 years plus of calling them to let them know I don't want it I simply put it straight in the blue bin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any direct selling representatives of any company I know is done by independent representatives not employees. As such, they don't have areas. It would be wise for the person to ask first before leaving a brochure. I know people have done that where I have lived previously. People move house so how do you expect Avon to keep their records up to date? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right it probably isn't strictly Avons responsibility, it would be good if there was something similar to the telephone preference service which reps could look up to see who'd said no to brochures etc.. Back to the original poster - have you considered selling on the likes of Ebay, perhaps turning a hobby into a small business, or even offering to pack parcels for someone with an Ebay business?

NickHalden Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 If you don't find a distanced work, i would recommend you to surf for a part-time or a temorary. I've seen many on JOBGEAR (sorry, can't include a web link). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
