FREE DATA WITH TELKOM LUMA
While being able to run your Avon business on the go is amazing, it comes with its own set of hurdles – having the data to go with it! And we all know that data bundles can be a significant expense in South Africa.

Telkom Luma offers a brilliantly reduced option for data bundles, giving your Avon business the breathing space it deserves.

CANVA
Canva is a superhero tool for Avon Reps. if you haven’t embraced this tool yet, you’re in for a treat.
As someone who’s been in the Avon game for over a decade, I get the need to stand out, to be more than just another face in the crowd of reps.
With Canva, you can unleash your creativity and craft personalized, eye-catching graphics that set you apart, and add value with your posts.
No more relying on the same company-supplied graphics that e-ver-ree-one uses!
From stunning social media posts, heartfelt customer thank you notes, brochure sticker designs, to even YouTube videos, Canva lets you create it all with ease. Plus, it’s mobile-friendly, so you can create these visuals right from your phone.
The best part? Canva is free forever.

Now let’s chat about a real gem that’s about to make your social media game a whole lot easier.
Say hello to CinchShare – your social media sidekick!

WHATSAPP BUSINESS APP
If you’ve been an Avon Rep for a hot minute then you already know the importance of staying connected with your customers.
WhatsApp Business is more than just a messaging app; it’s a tool that lets you create a professional business profile with the option to share links to your online store and virtual brochure.
You can use it to quickly respond to customer inquiries, share product updates, and even set up automated messages for common queries.
But you may be wondering “why bother using the WhatsApp Business app when you already use WhatsApp personal?”
While the regular WhatsApp app is fantastic for personal use, it’s not meant for mass marketing, and disregarding this fact could lead to being banned from the platform.
Typically you may want to create groups and distribution lists for communicating with your customers and downline teams. If you were to do this with a personal WhatsApp account, your number could be flagged for spamming, as its in breach of the terms of service.
Secondly, the personal version lacks the business-specific features available on WhatsApp Business. This includes the ability to set up a dedicated business profile with essential details like business hours, location, and contact information.
Another great feature is that the WhatsApp app syncs seamlessly with WhatsApp Web, making it a powerhouse for managing your Avon business from your desktop.
No more toggling between your phone and computer – with WhatsApp Web, you can respond to customers, share product updates, and stay on top of your messages right from your computer screen.
To use the WhatsApp Web features, simply browse to web.whatsapp.com from your computer, and follow the on-screen prompts to login.
So, if you haven’t made the switch yet, it’s time to unlock the full potential of WhatsApp Business for your Avon journey in South Africa.
