Mary Kay Opinion 10

I made the mistake of becoming a Mary Kay consultant. My friend who became a director shortly after became so cut-throat I had to get out. I pity any woman who gets sucked up into this pyramid scheme. Run away and run fast.

I am so sorry to hear that you feel that way about Mary Kay. I have been in Mary Kay for 4 months, and I am earning more money in a week with Mary Kay, than I do at my regular full time job. ( and I am only working 3-4 hours a week) It is so great being part of such a wonderful company. I don't think you heard all the facts, or really wanted to do it. You have to put your mind to it.

Dear Sarah,

Good for you if you love Mary Kay. I just didn't have the same experience. My Mary kay career was quite shorter than yours, about 3 weeks worth. Anyway, I just don't buy that in only a few hours per week you can truly work the business. I have a full-time job myself and I got more financial reward (albeit paltry) but still i wasn't sinking money into it and breaking even like some people in Mary Kay I've heard whose experience has been that.

I'll be honest- I'm just not one of those self-starters who can manage their own business. I used to be an office manager and felt more comfortable in that role. You know why? Because, I wasn't buying everything from Mary Kay and making little to no profit. If you really believe that you run your own Mary Kay business then you should be making a profit, not Mary Kay dictatng how you should make your money.

Those are my thoughts. I'm getting out of Mary Kay because I just know myself too well. It's not that I don't believe in myself, it's just that I found out that Mary Kay isn't for me (even if my soon to be former sales director doesn't like it).

Good Luck,
