Often people are unaware they can choose which “team” you start your Avon journey with. Our team is one of the most successful and welcoming in the whole of the country, plus with Jane and Howard at the head of our group we benefit from having the UK's most prominent online success. Our team created a proven system that enables people to see really quick rewards for their efforts.
The Avon brand is so strong, after 130 years everyone knows and trusts it, but our modern approach is delivering amazing results for our team.
Jane & Howard
We started to build our Avon business in 2014. It's been both easy & exciting. People just love Avon.
Like most people, we wanted to be able to afford to treat the ones we love to amazing things - Like taking our boys to the F1 Grand Prix in Singapore.
We have the freedom to choose when, where or even if we work, and there's no boss to ask for time off.
Last year Avon has enabled us to holiday in Prague, Hong Kong, Dubai, Bangkok & Sydney.

Interview with Jane & Howard Philpott
It’s amazing how exciting building an Avon business is, working around the “day job” in the hours that suit me and my family. It also surprises people that my husband Howard runs the business with me. I have found Avon easy, most people have no idea that there are two sides to the Avon business, they all know about being a representative, who isn’t aware of “ding dong Avon calling” – but almost no one knows about the team building side of Avon. In early 2014 I started to look for people who wanted to earn a little extra doing Avon, in February me and my team’s sales were around £950 by November 2015, just 22 months later they had grown to £91,500
At first I had no idea of what to do but I just followed our team training, I did not need any special skills just a big desire to make a difference. Last year the part-time income from our Avon business peaked at over £1,000 a week (it averaged over £500). This extra income has enabled us to enjoy some amazing experiences, like family holidays to Bangkok, Berlin and Kuala Lumpur. This year one of our treats was a holiday to Singapore where my boys spent 3 days at the F1 Grand Prix with VIP passes that enabled them to watch Queen in concert – Memories they will never forget.

Online Life
I may not be what people feel a “typical” Avon Rep should look like, but then I have never been one for just doing what everyone else is doing. My lifelong passion is music and I’ve been fortunate enough to have travelled the world, playing in front of thousands. I’ve even
played guitar on several No.1 singles across Europe. Like actors, musicians have lots of time where they have no work, so during the late 80’s & early 90’s I trained and learnt about web
development, well before most people even heard of the internet. Over the past three years
I watched my friends rapidly build a successful Avon business, in fact I built their websites and edited their videos. It was while I was working on the video for the team trip to Berlin, I thought “Paul, you need to take a fresh look at this business”. What I have found is a business that is in the process of a major transformation where the web and social selling will be a huge part of the future growth.
I soon discovered that Avon’s brand is extremely well recognised and trusted by the public, what else would you expect from an iconic business that is over 130 years old. However what really excited me was the fact that were millions, yes millions of customers who are unable to buy Avon products because they do not have a regular representative to show them the Avon brochure.
In 2016 Avon launched an online store that means we can know promote our own personalised online Avon store, people can order, pay and have it delivered directly to them and we make a great commission even though we never actually touched the products. This year has such amazing potential it feel like I’m part of a new business opportunity except that over 90% of the public know and respect the brand.
That has to be the closest thing to having your cake and eating it. I am sure if you follow the system our great team has put in place you will succeed, I guess the only question is “do you want this year to be better than last year?” If the answer is yes then join our team and see if this amazing business is for you.
If they can . . . so can you!
