Co Profile
Global leading direct seller
Avon Products ranked fifth overall in the global cosmetics and toiletries market in 2008 with a share of 3.6%,
up by 0.2 percentage points from the previous year. Growth in share can be attributed to increased focus on
emerging markets including Brazil, China and Turkey.
More than 5 million independent Avon Sales Representatives all over the world. Today, Representatives
serve more than 300 million customers globally
The company’s principal business is skin care, which generated 31% of sales in 2008, followed by colour
cosmetics and fragrances at 24% each. In North America principal business in the market is fragrances, colour
cosmetics and most importantly, skin care. All of these categories have been especially vulnerable to mass-
market pressure from the likes of discounters such as Duane Reed or Target.
Avon maintained its share of its domestic US market at over 3% in 2008. The health of this market is central
to the company’s wellbeing; despite its successful international expansion, the US still generated 18% of
Avon’s 2007 turnover, compared to 28% in 2003.
The company’s dependence on such a mature market is problematic – cosmetics and toiletries sales in the
US are forecast to decline at a 0.6% CAGR compared to a 2% CAGR growth for the global market. This is
even more so in the current economic climate. The company has already felt the brunt of the slowing US
economy in the fourth quarter of 2008 with its sales declining by 8%.
At the same time, it is looking to augment its joint ventures – following the Ungaro and Lacroix fragrance
launches, Avon partnered with Finnish clothing firm Marimekko to create a colour collection to sell in the US,
Europe, Mexico and Asia, as well as developing a Bond Girl 007 fragrance under licence.

2. Performance Discount (PD), 3-21% on Personal Sales (on your Business Volume)
3. You earn the difference between your own level (12% e.g.) and their level (6% e.g.)
on all their Group Sales.
• The difference of your own income and of the levels of your directly sponsored Consultants
is your earnings on their group sales
10,000+ = 21%
6,600 - 9,999 = 18%
* Business Volume (BV) = Sales at Consultant Price less Government taxes 4,000 - 6,599 = 15%
For the purpose of the examples BV Rs. 230,000 = 10,000 BPs, thus 1 BP = 20 Rs. 2,400 - 3,999 = 12%
1,200 - 2,399 = 9%
600 - 1,199 = 6%
