“The first step is always the hardest: making a commitment to and for yourself. But once you’ve done that, you’ll find yourself on the right path!” This phrase attributed to Mary Kay Ash, founder of the Mary Kay cosmetics direct selling company, has certainly inspired and still inspires many women who decide to work selling the brand’s products.
It all started in 1963, when Mary Kay Ash, a visionary, enterprising and way ahead of her time, opened the doors of Beauty by Mary Kay, in Dallas, Texas. From there, the company only grew and, in 1970, it already had more than 20,000 independent consultants.
Today, the brand’s products are sold in more than 40 markets around the world and attract more and more women wanting to be part of this team.
The possibility of working with quality products already known on the market, unlimited earnings, flexible hours, significant awards and recognitions… These are the main factors that motivate many women to become independent brand consultants.
However, just like any other type of service, being a successful Mary Kay consultant requires dedication, persistence and focus. You have to participate in training, always run after new customers, create your own goals, do financial planning and much more.
Check below how to become a Mary Kay consultant, the advantages of this profession and the testimony of women who already work with the brand.
Mary Kay Consultant: How does it work?
Virtually any woman who is willing and willing to really work can become a Mary Kay consultant and make huge profits from it.
To get started, you need to associate your registration with the data of an independent Mary Kay beauty consultant.
If you already have contact with a consultant, great… With her information in hand, you can register online. In addition, she will be able to explain all the details of the job to you and give you tips for you to succeed with this new business.
If you still don’t know any independent Mary Kay consultants, you can access the brand’s website and find a professional who is as close to you as possible.
And if you know a Mary Kay consultant by name, but don’t know her specific details, you can also do a search using only her first and/or last name and the state in which she operates.
After registering, you must purchase one of the Mary Kay Starter Kits, so you can start working, presenting the products and demonstrating to your potential customers. The investment to purchase this kit is R$ 169, an amount that can be paid in cash or up to three installments on the card.
The products that come in the kit are equivalent to around R$ 400, that is: with a much lower investment, the new consultant already has the basic tools to start the work. The kit generally consists of product samples, in addition to magazines and information leaflets and the catalog with all products and prices.
Requests from independent consultants are made through Mary Kay Em Sintonia, a portal intended exclusively for the brand’s beauty consultants, using the consultant’s code and password.
