3Executive Summary
4Wellness 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.

32Mass Market Tea Sales vs. Avon
Retail Dollar Gross Sales (MM) 1999-2001
- Increased interest in alternative medicine,
including herbal remedies is a factor in
increased tea sales. - Flavored teas have also contributed to loose tea
sales. - Avons Infusions 2003 demand sales projection of
3.3M is 22 above PY. Growth will be fueled by
promotional/giftable items as well as higher net
per unit per concept.

- Most Americans buy tea as part of a planned
shopping trip the majority of tea sales by
dollar volume are through the supermarket
channel. - However, as more Americans turn to mass
merchandisers superstores that sell groceries
as well as dry goods, most grocery stores are
seeing a sales decline for tea.

10.3 due in part to the proliferation of

treatment option - Good news about links between
tea consumption health benefits have convinced
many consumers to increase their consumption of
tea. - Consumers are increasingly price sensitive toward
tea. - The influence of tea has expanded beyond its
traditional form and is being found in unexpected
beverages and foods as well as bath and beauty
products.
- Competitive Dynamics

market share, more than double of its closest
competitor Celestial Seasonings. - Brands like Celestial Seasonings Honest Tea
have pioneered green and herbal teas in
mainstream channels, helping to raise awareness. - Mass merchandisers Private Label brands rank
number three in total tea sales in the US market. - Tea sales in supermarkets are falling as mass

39Beauty Review
40Avon 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.
