The Mary Kay Opportunity

 

The Mary Kay opportunity is not a get rich quick scheme; it is not a scam, and it is certainly not a pyramid. It is a business that rewards the highly motivated and pays you what you’re worth.

Mary Kay’s philosophy was about enriching women’s lives. Mary Kay (our founder) is widely known as one of the most influential and successful people of all time. She started her business in 1963 with $5,000 and a dream in her heart to put together the perfect business opportunity for women where they were the boss and were able to work their own hours. She took God as her business partner and turned it into a multi-billion dollar company. Why did she do it? To enrich women’s lives, not to make profit. Mary Kay wanted to create a company where women would get paid what they were worth. I’m here to tell you that this business works. I started my business July of 2001 and I ‘m currently a National Sales director and enjoying a lifestyle that I never dreamed of living.

 

• Product Sales- We make 50% on everything we sell. Whether you have been in a day or 40 years, we all make the same amount on our product. We buy directly from the company. If you buy a $1.00 you sell it for $2.00. Holding skin care classes is one of the best ways to share this wonderful product. For instance, in a 2 hour class with 3-6 women you could sell anywhere from $200.00-$1,000.00 and you make half. If you could sell an extra $600.00 a week, that is an extra $1,200.00 a month in your pocket.
   

• Commissions- When you begin to share the product you will meet women that want to join your team. When you share this opportunity you are able to earn commissions which are paid to you by Mary Kay Corporate. The amount that you are paid is based on what your team produces. For instance, my highest Mary Kay commission check was $4,000. I knwo personally women who have made $10,000, $23,000 and even $96,000 in ONE month! This may sound too good to be true, but it’s not!  Like I said, this business works if you do!  Need more proof?  Click here to see a list of commissions that were paid out to Mary Kay ladies in an actual month, as published in our company magazine, Applause!
   

• Prizes- As if it couldn’t get any better, Mary Kay SHOWERS us in prizes!  They give away millions of dollars every year in diamonds alone, as well as luxurious vacations all around the world!  And of course there’s the Pink Cadillac!  But that’s okay if you don’t want to drive a pink car—Mary Kay will give up to a $900 a month cash compensation instead!  Other career cars offered by Mary Kay include the Chevy Cruze, Chevy Equinox, Toyota Camry, and Ford Mustang.  Click here to view the career cars!

 

BUT!  It’s not all about money...

 

When I started my business, I was just looking to supplement my teaching income, but what I discovered was that there is SO MUCH MORE!  Mary Kay Ash founded this company based on the Golden Rule and the principles of God first, Family second and Career third.  She wanted to establish a career opportunity that would enrich women’s lives.  And that it does!  Here are just a few of the benefits that you will enjoy as a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant:

1) Flexibility
                 When you become a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant, you own your own business.  That means you get to set your own hours!  You work when you want to work.  I started my Mary Kay business on 3-5 hours a week that I squeezed in around a full-time job.  Because I was able to decide when I could fit Mary Kay in, I was able to control my schedule.  And it has definitely paid off!  Now, because of Mary Kay, I don’t have that constricting job, and I still work when I want to work.
 
 2) Friends for Life 
                        The friendships I’ve made with my Mary Kay girlfriends will be with me my whole life!  Imagine this:  You get to choose who you work with!  But when you love what you do, and you do it with your closest friends, wouldn’t you agree that you never work another day in your life???

 

 3) Outreach 
                 The joy that comes from helping other women enrich their lives and realize their dreams is too great to put into words!  Can you believe that you can earn an executive income while reaching out to others?  Wow!

 4) Personal Growth
                 There are countless stories of consultants who have developed personally in ways that they would have never believed possible!  From increased self-confidence to developing leadership skills to spiritual growth, the Mary Kay way of praising people to success fuels all types of personal growth!
                 “God didn't have time to make a nobody, only a somebody.  I believe that each of us has God-given talents within us waiting to be brought to fruition.”  — Mary Kay Ash

 5) Tax Benefits 
                 Our government wants to encourage small business growth, so as small business owners, we get great benefits because we run home-based businesses.  This means that you will pay less in taxes because of the tax deductions you get.  There are WAY too many to mention here, but they include deducting a portion of your housing expenses (including maintenance expenses & housekeeping!), automobile expenses, and even dining out!

 

Let me guess:  You’re not the sales type, right?
Luckily, this business is about building relationships, providing quality products and offering valuable services.  Mary Kay teaches you to be informative, not pushy.  Mary Kay consultants are really more like teachers than sales people.  The Mary Kay products sell themselves, we just have to educate our customers about them!  If you’re teachable and trainable, you can do it!

 

So where do the customers come from?
Mary Kay provides the education and tools necessary to build clientele who want the products and personal service you have to offer.  And those customers will keep coming back to you!  Did you know that the average woman spends more than $600-$700 per year on the products that you could provide her through Mary Kay?  Make-up is only part of the product line Mary Kay offers!  A large part of our business is skin care:  moisturizers, anti-aging products, etc.  Did you know that we offer other things, too?  From fragrances to lotions to men’s products, Mary Kay has the products to appeal to the widest range of customers!  So who are your potential customers?  People with skin!  And as a Mary Kay consultant, you get all the products you use at 50% off!  Many women become consultants just for personal use!

So how do I get started?
I’m glad you asked!  The startup cost is only $100 + tax & shipping!  The cost is EXTREMELY minimal when you compare it with what you get in your Starter Kit!  You get full-sized products valued at more than $400 retail, enough supplies to facial 30 customers and a stylish black leather tote bag!  Plus the intangibles that come along with your Mary Kay business are invaluable!  Here are just a few of the things that I “pulled” out of my Starter Kit:

1)  The ability to quit my sales job & serving. And I’m the best boss I’ve ever had!

2)  The personal growth that I’ve realized; it’s changed my life!

3)  The wonderful friends that I’ve made!

4)  The financial freedom to travel when and where I want to!

5)  The comfort in knowing that I will be able to stay at home with my kids when I decide to have some!
 

So, what do you think?  If you’d like to become a Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant, we’d be honored to welcome you to our family!  All you have to do is ask your consultant for the agreement, and you’ll be on your way!  If you do not have a consultant, please email me and I will take great care of you! alealaogata@yahoo.com

There is so much in store for you in your new Mary Kay business!  Don’t let another second go by—there’s no time like today!  If you continue doing the same thing you’re doing now for another year, where will you be?  In the same place!  Because if nothing changes, nothing changes—don’t be afraid to take a chance and make a change!  I can’t wait to welcome you to our team!
