Your world, our world:
a proud tradition of empowering women.
We believe that when women are self-empowered, they have the ability to make their dreams a beautiful
reality. Nowhere is this commitment more evident than with our global philanthropic efforts led by the Avon
Foundation. Avon is the largest corporate supporter of the breast cancer cause, with
programs in 50 countries that advance access to care and finding a cure, with a special focus on
underserved communities. The Avon Breast Cancer Crusade has raised and donated over a half-billion
US dollars worldwide since 1992.
Our Speak Out Against Domestic Violence campaign, created in 2004, raises both money and
awareness of this important public health issue and is expanding around the world. Already hundreds of
domestic violence agencies have received grants from Avon to help end the cycle of violence and save
lives. Avon also responds quickly and effectively to national and international emergencies and natural
disasters, funding relief programs that provide vital services and support for victims.
Become part of a powerful network of enterprising Representatives who are the very heart of a
company with an unwavering commitment to women—join the world of Avon.

They’re making money and enjoying life
on their terms—you can too!
My Avon business started
as a modest dream, one
to which I brought my work
ethic and “can do” spirit.
Avon set me on the right
path and supported me every step of the way.
With each success, I gained knowledge about
business, about myself and other people.
Avon empowered me to be all
I can be. I’m my own boss, and
define my own schedule.
And with Avon Sales Leadership, I help my
team members to develop and feel as
empowered as I feel. Together we’ve built
a $3 million business,* and we’ve learned that
we can take this business as far as we care
to go—the sky’s the limit!

*Your results may vary.
It really doesn’t feel like I’ve
been working very hard
because I love what I am
doing! I started my Avon
adventure 7 exciting and
rewarding years ago
because my mother wanted to buy Avon
products and couldn’t find a Representative.
The rest is history, now look at me! I am an
Advanced Sales Leader, and Presidents
Executive with a large loyal Customer base.
I have loved building a team
with Sales Leadership. I feel
great pride and satisfaction
in helping my team succeed
and fulfil their dreams.
With Sales Leadership I offer people an earning
opportunity with Avon and in return I am
rewarded for doing so. Which means that I not
only earn from my Customers’ sales but also
on my team’s sales.
My Avon earnings currently pay for overseas
trips and family holidays. My ultimate goal is to
earn enough money for my husband to be able
to retire, and to help establish funds for our
children’s future.
My success has been due to setting realistic
goals, communication and a positive attitude.
Thank you Avon for being able to provide me with
the tools and freedom to be a businesswoman, a
mum and to live the lifestyle that we enjoy today.
All you need to do is believe in yourself and that
you can do this, then others will want to follow.

I was really shy and couldn’t
say no when asked to join
Avon, but I am so glad I did as
I’ve enjoyed it ever since! Now
thanks to over 30 years with
Avon, I’ve gained confidence
through meeting so many different people in my
neighbourhood and have a solid Customer base.
Avon is part of my life and has been an incredible
journey to date. I have been on 22
amazing trips with Avon all over the
globefrom Hawaii, Malaysia, Mexico, and from Fiji
to Cairns within Australia.
My Avon earnings have allowed me to purchase a car,
take the family on a trip to England, put my children
through university, recarpet my house and build a new
garage.
I set goals for myself each year. Currently my main goal
is to support my son in achieving his ultimate goal as
an athlete at the next Olympic Games and we are on
track with that!
Gail emphasises the importance of setting goals.
To ensure the goals are achievable, I sit down and plan
what I need to achieve each Campaign.
A prosperous Avon business needs perseverance:
Keep growing your Avon business. The longer you stay
the more established you become.
Gail has achieved the outstanding record of being
Avon’s No1 Representative for 18 years in a row in
New Zealand. This continues as an Avon world record.
