Mary Kay Works If You Do
Another Mary Kay loser. 26 years in the company. A lowly sales director. Struggles each month to make production. Will have no money in retirement. But she’s going to tell us how to be successful.
I have been with Mary Kay for 26 years. Mary Kay works if you do. I love this company and they never make false claims. I have been able to raise my children and now take care of my aging parents. All while making a great living and helping other women feel confident.
I couldn’t even imagine my life if I had to go punch a time clock. You are the CEO of your business. It’s truly up to you what you do with it.
I also can’t believe she said we have mediocre products. Mary Kay has top scientists that work diligently to make sure we have the best products available. Mary kay also goes by European Standards. Much stricter standards.
So if you are considering a Mary Kay business please don’t listen to these false accusations. It’s not for everyone. I really believe you have to be able to lead yourself first to be successful.
I have been with Mary Kay for 26 years.
And nothing of value to show for your devotion.
Mary Kay works if you do.
It only works as a business model if you are unscrupulous enough to financially, emotionally and spiritually exploit other women.
I love this company and they never make false claims.
The company may NOT make false claims but the IBCs of all ranks do. Remember “Executive pay for part-time work”?
I have been able to raise my children and now take care of my aging parents.
That’s great if you did both of those things without exploiting other people in the process.
All while making a great living and helping other women feel confident.
I’m glad you were able to give some women a boost. Does it make up for how you treated those who helped you become a SD?
Mary Kay doesn’t publish these types of figures in the USA but here’s Canada’s 2023 Income Disclosure statement. Where does your “great living” fall?

I couldn’t even imagine my life if I had to go punch a time clock.
And yet many MLMers seem to spend 12,14 hours a day on their non-time clock work.
You are the CEO of your business.
That’s Ryan Rogers’ position, not yours.
It’s truly up to you what you do with it.
Can you use your own adverts? Novel ones? Do you choose when to release new products? Do you have input into those products?
No, because it’s not your business and you CANNOT do what you want with it.
I also can’t believe she said we have mediocre products.
That’s a matter of personal opinion. (General) you doesn’t have to bee-LIE-ve it.
Mary Kay has top scientists that work diligently to make sure we have the best products available.
And still, they lag behind the other major beauty companies by several years, almost as though their scientists don’t have any original ideas.
Mary kay also goes by European Standards. Much stricter standards.
Any company wanting to enter the European market also follows them. As do European based companies. It’s not Mary Kay Wagner Rogers Eckman Weaver Louis Miller Hallenbeck Ash’s company that is some kind of trail-blazer.
So if you are considering a Mary Kay business please don’t listen to these false accusations.
What false accusations? You haven’t defended Mary Kay against anything here. If our assertions were wrong, why didn’t you produce any evidence to refute our claims?
It’s not for everyone.
And yet, all IBCs peddle the lie that “Any-one can make it in Mary Kay”.
I really believe you have to be able to lead yourself first to be successful.
At least you got to the end of your feeble diatribe to start victim blaming.
“I couldn’t even imagine my life if I had to go punch a time clock.”
Meanwhile, everyone in your life wishes you would give a normal job a try, and give your Mary Kay peddling a rest.
I used to be a MK consultant when I was a classroom teacher in a public school and had set hours. But now as a university professor, I don’t punch a clock. I work from home half the week and go to campus for classes and meetings.
If I want to take a morning off, like today, I can as long as I’ve completed the work I need to do. Some weeks I may grade some papers or prep over the weekend or in the evenings so that I can take a morning off. It’s truly my schedule. And guess what? I get paid. I also have benefits.
I’ve been promoted in the past two years and got a raise. I wonder why you haven’t promoted yourself to NSD in 26 years. Is your deserve level not high enough?
“You are the CEO of your business.”
No you’re not.
“Mary kay also goes by European Standards.”
This has been proven over and over again to not really be a thing.
“I really believe you have to be able to lead yourself first to be successful.”
Yup, I lead myself right out of the pink fog and have zero regrets every day.
“I couldn’t even imagine my life if I had to go punch a time clock.” At least when I use a time clock my time gets tracked. Are you tracking your time or are you lying to yourself when you say “it’s only a few hours a week,” or “just filling in pockets of time”?
