What IS an AOL?

AOL stands for AVON On Location. An AOL, typically takes place at a public venue, such as a shopping mall, or a fair. At an AOL you have a display about the AVON Opportunity, and AVON products. Sometimes you will also offer fundraising items for sale, such as the breast cancer crusade items. Most AOLs also include a draw.The draw tickets, help you create a mailing list of people who would like to hear more about the AVON opportunity, or receive AVON brochures.

Tools for a successful AOL

Here’s a list of some handy tools for an AOL.

1. Brochures – Have lots of brochures to hand out! Our team, sometimes has access to free brochures you can use for special events.
2. Stickers with your contact information - especially handy to put on brochures when you are in a hurry, as they don’t smudge.
3. Draw ballots – Print out official ballots from your info center, or order from AVON under leadership materials.
4. Pens – you can never have enough of these.
5. Note pad or book for notes.
