When I graduated college I had no follow up job to run to. I was working as a waitress during my summers and school breaks and that's where I ended up, back at the restaurant - waitressing. My cousin felt this was a perfect opportunity to sign me up as a Mary Kay Beauty Consultant. I couldn't agree more! I was honestly sick of working at the restaurant for just tips and my student loans were about to kick start repayment in about a month.
God seriously works in mysterious ways.
I started selling Mary Kay back in 2010 and I am still selling to this day. I started by purchasing my starter kit, which by the way is the most amazing investment I could have bought myself. At the time I thought $75 was ridiculous but when I saw all that I was getting for just a measly $75 - so worth it. I hosted my first party, invited a bunch of girlfriends, my mother's friends, aunts, cousins, neighbors and anyone else I could get my hands on to come and see my little debut. Not expecting much of anything it turned out to be such a fun night! I made snacks and sangria and of course displayed all the items in my new kit! We all played around with the colors and skin care and I practically didn't have to do a dang thang! That stuff seriously sells itself. It is the funnest job I have ever had. After that first night I swore I wouldn't pressure myself to be a top seller, host a certain amount of parties a month and all the other things your supposed to do to be successful. I just wanted to have fun with it and thats what I do.
I just graduated college and my type-a personality/organized/control freak self told me I had to put that baby to use and go into the corporate world in NYC and get a 9-5 job. Not saying I don't love that but this was just a hobby that I didn't think I was ready to do full-time. Which is TOTALLY fine!!
It is fun and as I said I still sell to this day - especially to myself!
This is something that I don't openly talk about. Why? I don't know. I am not the type of girl to force things on people or pressure them into doing something they feel like they have to do. Just not me. But I figured having a blog and talking about my life is a part of me and this was a big pick me up that I never thought I was looking for. Maybe you need a pick me up too? I am not a crazy seller lady, even though that looks like so much fun to just quit my job and run around with makeup all day. But I do sell it regularly and I want to share the opportunity with all of the fabulous ladies I know and love.
