Mary Kay Opinion - Bre Garcia
Written by L J on June 17, 2008 – 2:57 pm -I am currently active in Mary Kay and have been for almost 2 years. While I enjoy looking through your site for the stories of why people have gotten out of Mary Kay and made my job so much easier, I also find it entertaining to see your take on things.
It’s all about perception, not deception. More of, glass half full, half empty really. If you are willing to WORK, if you are really ready to run a BUSINESS, then you’ll probably be ready to succeed. However, if you would rather WORK for someone ELSE, and answer to someone else, and let someone else take responsibility for everything that you do, then you are ready to make someone ELSE successful.
To the consultants that have stopped selling, I say thank you. It makes my job much easier.

Haha, I quit MK but I still sell it. So does Ebay. So does Craigslist, and on and on. And my wallet was the half empty item, not my glass. MK recruits women on the premise that they will only have to work as much as they want or as much as they can and still make $$, not on the premise that it’s a real business. Unless the person being recruited wants that of course. The “business” talk is saved for the initial inventory purchase pressure-cooker, er, I mean meeting. Please check in every 5 yrs. and let us know how your MK flopportunity is doing! Hugs and Smooches, and PS: you shouldn’t hand out your full name online.

“if you would rather WORK for someone ELSE, and answer to someone else, and let someone else take responsibility for everything that you do, then you are ready to make someone ELSE successful.”
Ugh, you are working for someone ELSE, MARY KAY CORPORATE. You don’t “own your own business” or you could sell it.
You answer to someone else, your SD & MKC;
let someone else take responsibility for everything that you do, - well, your recruiter is making $ off of what you do;
make someone ELSE successful - your recruiter went up a notch when you signed on, and maybe even your SD?
These are all a part of any JOB, IMO. The difference is some guarantee a paycheck, some do not.
