Executive Summary

Wellness Line Review 2003
  • Wellness 2002 Size of Line finaled at 250 skus.
    Aggressive inventory clearance of 66 dispos
    resulted in a 250 SOL, (-15) below an objective
    of 265 skus.
  • In 2003, the marketing mix will shift to Beauty
    and Beauty Plus. The major repositioning of
    Wellness Beauty will be supported by the launches
    of Healthy Remedies and Planet Spa. In the
    Beauty Plus category, continued brand building of
    SlimWell and VitAdvance will re-vitalize and grow
    the lines.





  • Beyond Beauty will continue to remain strong,
    with more impactful products. Strong vendor
    relationships (eg. Bally, Conair, HoMedics) will
    be leveraged to better manage supply and
    inventory.
  • Further investigation of Cluster and Wellness
    Global inventory management.
  • Wellness 2003 New skus (169 vs. 166) are up
    slightly (2).
  • The 2003 size of line goal of 265 skus will need
    to be aggressively achieved through more
    clearance, improved estimating accuracy, and
    internal process improvement.
  • Increase catalog pages dedicated to clearance.
  • Utilize AIA as a forecasting tool.
  • Refinement of product life strategy.

Avon Wellness Beauty Sales Concepts
  • Lack of appealing fragrances, undesirable
    packaging, and uncompelling brochure executions
    contributed to the unsuccessful launches of
    Vitatonics, Electricity Restoring in 2001
    2002.
  • 2002 Beauty sales growth of 14 was modest,
    fueled by the introductions of Soy, Edamame,
    Ginseng Asian Pear.
  • Major re-positioning of the Wellness Beauty
    supported by the introductions of Healthy
    Remedies and Planet Spa is expected to drive
    Beauty sales growth in 2003.
  • 2003 size of line will return to 201 level due to
    aggressive disposition.
