When I started my AVON business, I was really looking for something to do for myself. I was a Stay at Home Mom to two great kids. One of whom is in school and the other will be starting school this Fall. One of the first things I thought about when considering a journey with AVON was the discount I would get for selling, so I could get some makeup, fashion, and jewelry products that otherwise I was not purchasing. Sure enough, that is exactly how my business began with quickly transforming into wanting more. AVON has changed me for the better. I am now more focused, driven, confident, and happy. I am now proud to be a Work at Home Mom and love learning and growing with my business every single day!
