I LOVE what I do,  watching kids and Avon.  But the daycare  side is drawing to a close.  Summer is here and I need to focus on my Avon business to go full time.  It’s what I’ve wanted since I saw the business and earning opportunity that comes from being my own boss.

$10 investment and  I was off to the races making money, selling one of the most familiar names in products.

Now, I’m a national recruiter, stretching my team across the country.

I’m looking for a few things and you, my amazing audience of readers,  can assist.

First,  it is warm weather  and I need a sales boost.  If you haven’t seen an Avon brochure lately, I would  love  for you to take a look via my Avon Online Store.  Just click “Shop my eBrochure” on the right hand side and you can page through the current brochure/catalog.  Avon sells Deet free bug repellent, you won’t be sorry you tried it!

That is the first thing you can do to assist me…buy!  Get on my Avon site and place an order!  Avon has 100% satisfaction guarantee so you can return things if they do not meet your expectations.  But please, if you have ever considered buying from Avon, I would LOVE to be your Avon lady – shop with me from home, pay online and it will be shipped directly to you!  Want to save money on shipping?  If you use the code, 99JUNE1 your order ships for just .99 cents!  If your order is $30 or more, it ships FREE!!!!!!  So please, consider helping a sister out and place an Avon order, spread the word to friends and family too!

Now, second.  Have YOU considered becoming an Avon rep?  It is only $10 to start, nothing more.  No need to stock inventory.  Just $10.  Your first 4 campaigns you will receive 40% commission, and after that you earn 20-50% based on your sales.  Example: Place a $300 order and your commission is 35% earning you $105.  I know just about everyone could use a little extra income.  Or a lot if you chose to work it that way.  Sign up with me,  online, and you will be in my downline, on my team, and I will help you, train you and teach you to build your business. How you say? Just go to Start Avon and use the code MARTIGARDNER and pay the $10 and you will receive your kit  in a few days and then the fun of working for yourself, as a part of my team begins!!!  You have nothing to lose but $10 if it turns out not to be your thing.  But I know you will succeed and LOVE this business.  If for no other reason than the discount you will be able to buy your own Avon for, and really why pay retail?

So,  that dear readers is how you can assist  me,  and at the same time shop sales, and start your own business!  And yes, a few really good men sell Avon too, and they are very successful!

Thanks SO much!

Product Review: Skin So Soft Bug Guard Plus IR3535

As an Independent Sales Representative for Avon, I am given an opportunity to preview products  before they hit the brochures.  Recently the preview was for our Skin So Soft line of insect repellents.  As someone that likes being outside, especially on the back of a motorcycle, I decided to put our Bug Guard Plus to the test.

The first time I tried the Bug Guard Plus IR3535,  "Cool 'N Fabulous" SPF 30 Lotion Disappearing Color. The disappearing color is great if you need to ensure that sun sensitive skin is completely covered as the blue color stays on the skin for a few moments before vanishing. It is, as it says, very water resistant.  This is an ideal product if you have little ones that swim or are outside playing sports.  For my taste, I cannot stand the scent. I am pretty sensitive to smells and didn't care for it at all.  If I were swimming or had little ones I'd use it but for me personally, no thanks.

This past weekend I used the Bug Guard Plus IR3535 "Gentle Breeze" SPF 30 Lotion.  I'm sold, hooked, LOVE  this stuff.  The scent was pleasant, doesn't smell like a sun screen to me.  And it works.  I applied it once around 11:30am yesterday, then got on  my honey's Harley with him and rode all day, in the sun.  When I returned home last night I had tan lines but no sunburn whatsoever.  It should be noted that being a natural blond with very fair skin I tend to burn easily.  I haven't gone to a tanning bed in over 2 years,  so I had zero base for protection.  Not a single red spot!  Add to that the fact that mosquitoes see a 7 course meal with a super decadent dessert when they spot me, and not a single bite anywhere even though I came home and spent time sitting outside for a while. I am totally sold on this product.

Right now you can purchase  this product on  myAvon Website Store and if you do so before midnight on 5/24 it will ship to you free!  In fact, any size order ships free until that deadline, just use the code: FSMAY2 and you should receive it in a few days time.

I LOVE free stuff!!! And especially FREE shipping when I order anything online.  Free is good, free means instead of paying through the nose to ship something, I can spend MORE money on things I want to purchase because those items  will ship to me FREE.

This is a one use code per customer, but I have a code you can use on my Avon website to get FREE shipping on ANY size order if you use it before 5/24.  Use it now, before you forget and are disappointed later that you didn’t take advantage of the awesome sales and especially things for Memorial Day and Father’s Day that are in the current brochure on my site.

Just go to MY AVON STORE, and click “Shop My eBrochure” to see the latest book!  Click it and you can page through the catalog and then click items to order!  When you go to check out, use the code  FSMAY1 and your order will ship to you FREE!  Best part? It will be there  within a few days, right to your  door step!

Don’t wait and miss out on the  FREE shipping!  OH and don’t forget, purchase your Bug Guard now, it was a mild winter and the mosquitoes etc will be in abundance this year!
