I wanted to bring back this Instagram post by Jamie Taylor in 2020. She was a sales director then, in the constant cycle of trying to get the numbers to add up to “nsd qualified.” Jamie eventually got there when enough of her downline maxed out credit cards. But now her national area is dwindling right before her eyes.

Yes, Jamie, we mock you for calling this elaborate scam a career. You might be making some money (not as much as you thought you would, huh?) but it comes at the expense of all the people in your area who are losing money. But you’re selfishly happy, because you’re still making money!

  1. And guess what! I feel 0% defensiveness rise up in my body

    Now excuse me while I write a whole post defending how I exploit women in order to feel better about my choices.

  2. Jamie you only qualified for NSD cause you had two directors who ordered inventory they didn’t need. Neither of them are directors anymore. You should be ashamed at yourself as to how you pressure your downline into ordering.

  3. “No matter what the numbers in your bank account or the scale say…you are okay.”

    No, they are not. Telling the victim of abuse that they are “okay” is so very wrong. And yes Jamie, you are literally abusing your own downline financially, emotionally and reputationally.

    • Honestly. You’re not ok when you can’t afford your rent/mortgage, gas, car repairs, groceries, the minimums on your credit cards, electicity, water, daycare, etc etc etc because someone twisted your arm into buying up a ton of useless garbage so you can profit for their suffering. Was Bernie Madoff ok? LIke you, he screwed people out of their life savings by selling lies. He was rich, but he was scum.

      You’re not ok if you’ve got an eating disorder or autoimmune disorder that affects the GI tract. You’re not OK if you live in a food desert and all you can get to eat is fast food and junk food. You’re not OK if you’re morbidly obese to the point where it affects your mobility and hygeine. You’re not ok if you’ve got esophogeal cancer and can’t swallow spit, let alone food (RIP Uncle John).

      There’s more to life than being rich and thin and successful at all costs. Being human, f’rex.

  4. BUT JAMIE MAKES $100K IN COMMISSIONS EACH YEAR.

    And her downline loses much, much more money than that each year via their participation in the MK scam. That’s not a business, friends.

      • Got to wonder why I got The Dreaded DownVote tm for something available on the Canadian Mary Kay website.

        Could it be some-one worried about knowledge about the real figures frightened about transparency?

      • Assuming that $100K annually is a NSD’s gross income, she’ll be lucky if she nets $50K after self-employment taxes, health insurance, and expenses. My cousin’s former wife is a NSD & he told me that her expenses were astronomical. Additionally, she has no 401K that will pay her until her death. She’ll be receiving an annuity from MK only until she’s 80 years old. That’s not much to look forward to for spending her entire MK career on the hamster wheel. In fact, it’s pathetic.
