Hurricane Harvey Product Bundles

Super quick blog today.  Avon has announced that they are putting together product bundles of daily care products to send to those in need in Texas.  The bundles are at a $10.00 donation price and Avon will cover the cost of shipping.

I'm posting the code information from another reps page below:

✔️✔️BEST FUNDRAISER for TEXAS HURRICANE RELIEF✔️✔️ 
‼️Starting tomorrow, August 30th, beginning in C19, you can add product # 258076 to your C19 order and Avon will send a Hurricane Relief Bundle, with Daily Care Products to Area Shelters affected by Harvey. Direct help for our sisters and brothers in distress and the cost is only $10.00‼️
✔️Let's show we care by adding at least 10 bundles to your C19 order 🤠
✔️FUNDRAISING is by Asking your friends, family, customers & Coworkers if they will donate $10 for a bundle to Assist TEXAS Flood Residents in need. This is a great way for EVERYONE to Contribute to those affected. It's easy, because AVON will SHIP it 

Please leave me a message below if you are interested in donating for a bundle.  I want to meet the challenge of ordering 100 bundles and if everyone spreads the word, we can do this.  You should also be able to order them through my store in the next few days or so. 
Lets do this!!

Working your business- online parties

Happy Saturday!

Having your own business is a lot of work, depending on what you hope to achieve with it.  My goal with becoming an Avon Representative has changed over the years. I first signed up as I felt God leading me to do so. I can't tell you why, it just was very apparent to me to do so.

I had a team for a little while and then lost it.  The downline rules with Avon have since changed. Now, once you have someone sign up under you, they are yours forever. You can't 'lose' them for lack of sales or activity.  Becoming a representative is super easy too.  When I signed up back in the day, I filled out a contract and paid 10 bucks.  Now, its all done online.  You simply go to startavon.com, choose the starter kit you want ( I recommend the $25.00 one- I can help you out with anything else you need) and then make sure you enter my code (LaDonnaL) and boom.. your done. Once you receive your kit in the mail, I receive a notice you are on my team and then we connect. I can have teammates local and far away. With the invent of Skype and Zoom. connecting is super easy.

Today, I keep my business going because I want to grow it into something I can thrive on. BUT! The heart of the matter is I want to help others. I get more excited over others success then you can imagine. This is odd for most- most people like to see themselves succeed. I do, of course, but I find true happiness and joy in seeing others move forward. My day job is in social work and nothing hits me in the feels more then when a client is offered a job or gets into housing or something else life changing. I do a little jig!!

So,  now your signed up- now what? How do you promote your business?  There are many ways and I will cover one of my newest favorites here today. More blogs on promotion to come, promise! Social Media is a huge platform and online parties are a super easy way to share your business. On Facebook, there is a group called Online Parties with Jamie and it is an online party community run by Jamie.  She hosts parties every weekend and for a fee, vendors can sign up to promote in them. You get posting times to put up posts on products, run games and interact with other vendors. I have so much fun doing these and she is SUPER organized and takes care of everyone.  We can go into more detail when you are ready to try it yourself!!

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you found this helpful. I would love to help you grow your own business so leave me any comments below.  Come and visit me at my website www.youravon.com/LaDonnaL  or join me on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/ladonnalangwellavon/

Have a blessed day!!

Heat Wave Sale

We are having a heat wave in the PNW and it is putting everything on a standstill. It is like everyone is in slow motion because the heat is slowing us all down.

I grew up in Southern California and high heat was a normal thing. I'm talking Christmas mornings were warm sort of heat. We had the hot winds every fall, along with all the wild fires. It was so nice to move up North and escape all of that- I never liked the heat and I never really liked the beach. I still crave cold days and gray skies which makes living here ideal.

Along with heat, though, comes bugs.  Mosquitoes to be exact and if you are having the same problem, Avon has the solution.  I have never known mosquito bites until I moved up here. Many folks get them in SoCal but I just was lucky until I moved here. Now, I can't go outside in the dusk without having my skin chewed up.  My go to is the Bug Guard towelettes. They are easy to use and I can control where the repellent is going versus the spray.

AND.. they are on sale buy one, get one free!! Mix and match with a Bug Guard Spray if you want. My camping friends love these as they are much easier to use on their wiggling kiddos.

Heat time is indoor time and that means you may have a little time to do some online retail browsing. Be sure to check out all the sale items in Campaign 18. We have some adorable fashions like this Keynote dress for only 15.00- going, going until gone! (The flip flops are pretty cute, too)

All of this is available through my online brochure @ www.youravon.com/LaDonnaL

Until next time, keep cool and leave me a message with your thoughts below!
Cheers!

Breakfast with me and Campaign 18 standouts!

Although I talk about Avon a great deal, I do have other passions! Cooking is my love language- making something to share with others is a joy to me like no other.  Neighbors have been known to have me show up on their doorstep with a container of my latest creations just because.

My biggest fan is my husband, Todd. He is an excellent cook himself and teaches me new things all the time.  I love creating little special dishes just for him and this morning was no exception!! Check out this little breakfast bite

Its a deconstructed blt on a bagel with basil aioli. Yum! If I publish it, I'll share the link in a different post.  Comment below on any cool recipes you have!  I'll post from time to time pictures of the recipes I do as an Allrecipes Allstar. More about that later.

Now back to Avon and the values you can find in Campaign 18! Its all about Skin so Soft, baby! This is one of Avon's flagship products and it is the best.  From the oil to the new body wash, the line is amazing. Avon's Campaign 18 is live on my website (link below) now.  Here is a sample of whats for sale:

Huge creamy body washes for 3.99 and shower gels for 2.99!  Talk about amazing values! You cannot find this in stores and the quality is fantastic!

Got kiddos? Or just want to turn your bathroom into a nice retreat? Then there is nothing like a bubble bath and Avon has the best price and quality for the money. 24 ounce bubble baths on sale 2 for 12.00 (will be 8 dollars if you buy one).

A few of my favorite things- Avon and beyond

Is it just me or does anyone else hear Julie Andrews singing " These are a few of my favorite things" every time you see those words in print? I digress..

I love Avon and I love values so I'm always looking out for new bargains.  I have many friends who also own their own businesses and yes, some are in somewhat competition others might say with my own business. I don't look at it that way.  Just because I absolutely love my brand and stand behind all our products doesn't mean I don't appreciate (and like!) many things my friends sell. I even buy them from time to time!

One of my favorite values is Nakedwines.com  If you are into wine, this is the site for you. They are like a crowd funding site where you invest a very small amount into an account each month for eventual spending on wine. You decide when and you decide what wine.  They remove the expensive marketing middle man and advertise the wine for the winemakers (small guys and gals that otherwise would not be able to get their wine on the store shelves.) The result is you get great wine at a deep discount and you help the little winemaker thrive. If you decide to order, be a champ and use my referral code so you get your first order practically for free and I get a kudos for referring you.

So there you have it! What is coming up in the next couple of days?  ORDER TIME! Campaign 17 is getting ready to go in so if you haven't reached out to me or checked out the book online, please do so!! So many great bargains! Lipstick for under $6,  all foundation and other makeups on sale as well as bath items and body care.

Be Daring, Be Romantic and Be Fun fragrances are new and I have samples! Send me a message for details. Please comment below on anything you would like to see in the future and thanks for stopping by!

Why Avon?

You can hardly open your Facebook these days without being bombarded by your friends requests to let them wrap you, put candles in your house or destroy your kitchen with a chef party.  

The desire to be an entrepreneur is understandable.  Not all business models work the same and some cost you so much money upfront, it can land you in the financial hole.  So why consider becoming an Avon rep?  I've been doing this for awhile and the gazillion truck hasn't come in yet. So why?

Here is why. If you are thinking of starting your own personal business, the Avon opportunity is rich for the taking. It is a globally recognized brand and people love it.

The costs to start up are minimal. $25 to a $100, depending on what kit you choose to order. You don't have to an appointment with one of us-  you can simply go to www.startavon.com and use my CODE LaDonnaL  (that way you will be all cool and on my team) and off you go.

Once I have showing on my team, we will communicate however is cool with you so I can show you the ropes.  There is no required inventory, no required parties, no required anything. This is your business and as long as you uphold the Avon name in good standing, you can run your business your way.  They will provide you with a free website and so many other tools to get you going.

So, thats my pitch. I love this business and I want to work with others to become successful while continuing to build my own success story.  Lets write it together!

Daily Deal of the Day Posts

I love a bargain and I assume most people do too.  Its with this in mind that I started Deals of the Day.  I post on my Instagram (Wolfie Avon Lady) and my facebook limited deals for my followers. Its pretty cool and folks have to message or comment to the post pretty quickly because deals run out fast.

Here is an example of one of the deals (not available now):

It was 6.50 for the set and is normally around 25.00

Sweet, huh?  Leave a message below if you want to be added to the group or follow me on Instagram.

Coming up in a couple campaigns, our annual Fundraiser plush toy becomes available. If you know of a group that needs a fundraiser, this is the ticket.  This adorable plush is around 20.00.  What your group can do is sell them and folks can either elect to keep it OR your group donates them to a local charity!! Most people go for the charity idea and the fundraising group gets 40% profit.  I'm looking for groups now who want to do a fundraiser, so if your a local peep, hit me up!

All together now... awwwww...

Campaign 17 Peeks!

There are some amazing values coming with Avon Campaign 17; which just started for me!

First, skin care is super important to me. I want my skin to look nice and at its peek, but not pay an arm and a leg in the department store. In steps Anew.  The Ultimate Day Cream is light and smooth with an SPF of 25. I absolutely love it.  There is also a companion night cream and eye lift duo. These are normally on their own upwards of 38.00 a piece.. in Campaign 17 they are any 2 for 42!!! Now that is a VALUE!!

Value 1! Value 2, is fragrance. When its hot, especially, I like my fragrance to be light and refreshing. Nothing heavy or too perfumy.  (Is that even a word? It is now!)  Perfect timing, Avon! In Campaign 17, they are introducing the BE Fragrance collection- BE Romantic, BE Daring or BE Fun. I like them all- I'm currently using BE Daring. It has warm notes of magnolia and musk (thats the fancy people talk for it smells really, really nice). And at an intro price of only 12.99.. SCORE!

You can check them all out on my website and if you are a local yocal, I can even bring ya' a sample.

Thats it for today. Check back for more later.  Did you know Thursday night is the busiest night for pizza delivery? Random fact or piece of trivia. You choose. :)

A little about me..

Since this is all new and everything, I thought I would share a little bit about the things I love and am passionate about.

Of course, Avon. I have been an independent representative for over 10 years and I just love it. Why? I am in love with the products, absolutely.  They are high quality and a great value.  Where else are you going to find a lipstick for 7.00 that you could easily find in a department store for $30? Only Avon!

More importantly, I"m a relationship person. I like building connections with people and when I can do so while helping them look their best, double win! One of my favorite products is their Anew skin care line. I use the serum to brighten my skin after I have cleansed with their awesome cleansers. Check out these beauties:

Avon always has wonderful sales and such great seasonal items.

I'm not just about Avon!! I love to cook as well and enjoy creating new recipes.  For the past five years, I have been blessed to join the ranks with others as an Allrecipes.com  Allstar.  I am not paid as I'm not an employee. What I am is a home cook who takes on assignments from various brand sponsors. Its a lot of fun. I also get to recreate others recipes.  This was my take on a BLT salad:

Well, that is just a little about me! I'll keep posting alluring values and fun tips on a regular basis so I hope you come back to see me soon!!
