The Payment system will also be down so it is important that you resolve any orders currently on hold and pay your balance due Avon in full prior to February 16 to prevent your orders from being held and or canceled.

During the time frame that ordering is unavailable, please note that any Customer who shops directly at AVON.com will only have the option of direct delivery and will need to enter their Representative’s phone number at time of payment entry. The ability to choose Representative Delivery will again become available on Sunday morning. To avoid any confusion, please encourage your Customers to shop at your online store either before or after our maintenance weekend.

Since Customer Care will not be available during the outage timeframe, we suggest that you have payments and requests for product credits and returns up to date prior to Thursday, February 16.

In addition, please note that orders submitted over the maintenance weekend may experience a one day delay in delivery.

Thank you in advance for your support and understanding.

More Yellow Rose Necklaces Now In Stock!

Avon is pleased to extend the sale of the Sophia Smith Yellow Rose Necklace in honor of Sophia Smith and in support of the ALS Therapy Development Institute. When first introduced late in 2011, the fund-raiser was so popular that our inventory of necklaces was sold out! However, we now have a new supply available. This beautiful rose-shaped necklace adorned with pearls sells for $9.99 with all proceeds going to the ALS Foundation. The product number is 539-379. As with all fund-raisers, there is no commission on this sale and no Sales Leadership Earnings.

As you may know, Avon Representative, Sophia Smith from Victoria, Texas, is a true Sales Leader. Tragically, in November 2010, Sophia was diagnosed with Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), also referred to as “Lou Gehrig’s Disease.” ALS is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that affects nerve cells in the brain and the spinal cord. The cause of ALS is not completely understood and presently there is no cure or treatment that halts or reverses the disease. The ALS Association is in need of funds to continue research to find a cure for this terrible disease.

Please encourage all of your Representatives to continue to help fight ALS by selling one or more Sophia Smith Yellow Rose Necklaces to their Customers.

Tiny Tillia Storybook 3 Cover Misprint

Please be aware that the Tiny Tillia Storybook 3 directs Customers to order from yourAVON.com rather than AVON.com. This, however, is a misprint. Beginning in C/6, Customers will be able to find Tiny Tillia products on their Representatives websites, on avon.com as well as on tinytillia.com. Of course, Customers can also continue to order directly from their Avon Representative. To rectify the misprint, a link to tinytillia.com has been added to the homepage of yourAVON.com, and Representatives will be notified of this in the upcoming Representative Times issue.

Tiny Tillia Crib Bedding–Addition of Legal Disclaimer

To ensure that we comply with bedding regulations in the city of Chicago that prohibits the sale or distribution of crib bedding bumpers, Representatives and Customers will see the following disclaimer on tinytillia.com, and beginning in C-6, on the yourAVON.comand AVON.com websites:

NOTE: In compliance with local ordinance, this crib bedding bumper cannot be offered, sold, distributed, or purchased within the city limits of Chicago, Illinois.

While the current Tiny Tillia Storybooks do not have this product disclaimer printed next to the bedding, all future Storybook or Brochure copy will have this notation.
