I'd like all the Pink ladies to know, that corporate 9 to 5 jobs are great! I get FREE health insurance, paid for by my company. I get paid vacations and paid holidays. I get a 401K program for retirement savings, and they match a dollar for every dollar that I put into the 401K. This adds up to thousands of dollars after I'm retired! Does Mary Kay offer anything like that for their pink ladies? Didn't think so....

Yes..I agree that my corporate 9 to 5 was great until I lost it. Matters out of my control! Then looking for months to find another one. So what do you do? MK is not for everyone and sales is difficult but the bottom line is that MK teaches you how to go out with nothing in your pocket and possible come back with "SOMETHING"

If not MK, then candles, or pots and pans, whatever. It is so easy to compare MK to a job when you have one. Yes the organization has it's problems, but so does having a 9 to 5 that you may not have in the morning.

My situation is this: I'm in my early 20's and landed my first corporate job. 35K a year in my Downtown area. It took me $10 a day in gas to get there and $6 a day to park. After taxes I brought home only $1,880 a month.

In MK I have 6 active consultants, commissions and my sales = 1,100 on average a month profit. Yes this is less then the corporate job but guess what! No one can fire me or lay me off from MK. That is the biggest difference. And with more time and training I can grow my business. I honestly feel that you can only be successful with any business if you do it full time. Not if you have full inventory or not. I only have $600 dollars on my self and If I don't have something I trade with a sister consultant.

MK is no different than any other business. Being a entrepreneur is the only way to be if you have fallen on hard times. Sadly I know for a fact.
