Do not get scammed by this company. DSM job is a joke if you are a professional woman. - District Sales Manager Avon Employee Review

Pros

Good work on breast cancer and domestic violence.

Cons

The job that was posted and sold to me is not the job that I am in. As a district sales manager you are given a profile of a type of woman that would become an avon rep. This woman is usually in dire straights and needs some money. Your job is to get her to sign up. She may have no business experience but all they are looking for is a recruit that will be dumb enough to hand over $10.00. As a DSM you need to stalk these people and find 30 people every 2 weeks that are foolish enough to join this scam. Bad job, no self respecting sales professional would do this for a living. The saying is that Avon is a lifestyle, not just a job. If you are ok with scamming people and handing your life over to Avon (work 70 hours a week) then this is the place for you.

Pros

See latest varied product offerings Can buy some samples & products @ discount

Cons

Need to find your own customers, many not home. Spend much time on computer, entering orders precisely. Trying to co- ordinate customers deliveries, for you to get their payments, so that you're not stuck for the bill & excess (some made in China mdse) products. Quite a lot effort for smaller $.
