If you are like most of America – you have been adjusting to a new way of living since about March of 2020. Being able to run a successful Avon business from home looks very different. What we thought would last weeks has turned into many long months. What we assumed were temporary set backs to our home based business have now become the new norm.
So what does your Avon business look like with these changes? Have you adapted & thrived – or have you struggled, fought changes & your business is now suffering? What do you need to do different to get different results? How can you start to run a successful Avon business from home?
I like to ask myself — What can I control when I’m feeling out of control? I can control my attitude, my content, my actions and my daily routine.
Who are your kind of people and where are they hanging out online? Meet them where they are & engage with them there. What group can you join with interests similar to yours? Is your audience on instagram, tik-tok, snapchat, youtube?
Build connections – intentionally, genuinely. Be helpful, engage & interact. Become a part of a group not with the intention of selling & marketing – but with the intent to connect with real people in a real way. The selling & recruiting can come later after you establish a relationship with new people. Build mutual trust & respect.
Be a resource to people. How can you help them? How can you serve them? How can you meet a need? Provide every day products they can buy from you without having to go to the store. And even provide a way to generate their own income with Free Enrollment right now.
Go LIVE!! Do a makeup tutorial, complete your skin care routine, use those home essentials, paint your nails, do an unboxing, share the Avon opportunity, or record just your hands if you feel uncomfortable. If a live freaks you out too much start by recording yourself and then post.

How are your followers identifying with YOU? Not just with Avon. Where is that connection coming from and why? What do they like about you?
Are you sharing your own photos & videos and not just relying on stock photos from Avon Social. As beautiful as they are – they are like commercials. Your followers are there for the big show – that’s YOU! Imagine you are watching netflix – are you going to sit through commercial after commercial or are you clicking “next”? Your followers are doing the same on facebook. If they see too many “commercials” from you – they will scroll on by. But if they see YOU – they will stop their scroll and see what you are up to! If you do use Avon Social – be sure to write something personal along with it. Your thoughts, Your testimonials, Your story. To become a successful entrepreneur, building your brand is key!
People buy from people they like. People that like you, will probably like the same things you like. So SHOW them what you like in your social media posts!
Get rid of that perception that “people aren’t going to buy Avon right now” — because they ARE! Don’t stop building your following – make sure you have engaging content. Bring a smile, some normalcy & positivity into their homes with what you are putting out there on social media. Keep your followers excited, informed & entertained. This will keep you AND your business in their thoughts. Don’t loose their attention or their hearts — share what you are doing. Allow them to see the real you! Be engaging. Make them wonder what you will post next. Leave them wanting more. Personal relationships are more important now more than ever with your followers.
