If you're considering becoming a Mary Kay consultant, I hope you will find this information helpful. Take a minute and start out by watching this interview with Gloria Mayfield Banks, one of my FAVORITE Mary Kay Directors.
Now, if that inspired you, then Mary Kay might be a fantastic opportunity for you. The beautiful thing about being an Independant Mary Kay Beauty Consultant is that YOU are in control of your own business. There are 6 reasons women often become Mary Kay Consultants:
- Money! This was one my my initial reasons for becoming a consultant.
- Recognition - we get AMAZING prizes just for doing our job
- Personal Growth
- Our awesome car program - take the car or take the cash!
- Flexibility/No territories - work when and where you want to
- Be your own boss!
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.
2. Friends for 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!
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 woma 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 $323 retail, enough supplies to facial 30 customers and a stylish black leather tote bag! Plus, it's okay of you know nothing about what you're doing - the company offers INCREDIBLE training to help you on your way. If you're teachable, you will be successful!
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!
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!
