Using Coupons to Increase Sales

One of the things that has really helped my sales is the use of coupons. I make them up myself on my computer and I print them out and tape them in a place in the brochure where they are sure to be seen. Maybe with one edge hanging out that says, "$5 FREE Avon" or "Save 30%".

When I call my customers I ask them if they saw the coupon and if they would like to take advantage of it. Some say yes...some say no. I always ask though just in case the customer didn't happen to see it or forgot it was there.

The following is the format in which I type my coupons followed by some examples of coupons that I have used:

********************
