In Mary Kay, we call this our I-Story.
I decided to become an Independent Beauty Consultant for Mary Kay because I love the product! I mentioned this in my first MK post but didn't elaborate on why. First let me start with the fact that I had no intention of joining Mary Kay. I hadn't really thought about it because I have a full-time job and life is busy enough. I hosted a party for a friend so that she could work her way up the MK Ladder to become a director. As a hostess, I received a nice discount and purchased the Mary Kay Starter Kit for $50.00, which was already at a special rate of $75.00. I love a great deal so I couldn't pass up getting $400 worth of product for $50.00!
Initially, I planned on just using the product and giving the sales materials to my friend. When I got the kit, I was impressed by the bag and intrigues by the sales materials. Not at the potential of making money, sure that's a nice bonus; I was more intrigued by the challenge of doing something new and different.
At the same time, I get a discount on the products I love while servicing my friends and family. Now, you can have that opportunity also. The Starter Kit is on sale again (for the first time since October) for $75.00. This is your chance to get in on the fun and be apart of the MK Family.

I read those articles before I made my decision to join. I chose not to invest too much and make wise decisions. I have chose to invest all of my money back into my business for the time being. I only purchase products that I know I will use if they don't sell, and products that I know will move. For me, it's more about the experience, friendships I have made and serving other women who also want to feel confident about their skin. I definitely weighed my options before getting involved, and did a lot of research. And I appreciate the comment, I think all women should do their research before getting involved.
