Mary Kay Parties Are Fun and Profitable
Mary Kay consultants love to show how fun and profitable parties are on social media. (But we at Pink Truth know better. The 50% profit is pure fiction, and the large sales to actual customers are few and far between.) Sure, you’ll see these posts from time-to-time that show some success.
But here are some OTHER examples of social media posts featuring these wonderful and lucrative parties! (If you didn’t sense my sarcasm here, you’ll get it once you keep scrolling.)
Darrian Zuspan had a powerful night with plenty of empty chairs.
Cassie Leopard supervised a business debut for two new consultants and was assisted by three sales directors. Everyone had tacos and $600 was sold! You read that right… 5 representatives from MK and all of their guests (LOL, so many!), and only $600 was sold.
Cassie also posted a pic showing a customers name, address and phone number. WHOOPS!
Rebecca Neal held a Mother’s Day party at a retirement facility and sold $30! Sadly, no recruits.
Elena is busy with meet and greets. She’s had two and has sold $55!
The Fortenberry area is also excelling with their parties. Sadly, a party from last year popped up to remind us all that some parts don’t get you any sales or recruits! But pick yourself up and get ready for the next one! It could be the one!
What are the women winning?
Be careful about those burritos, they’ll spoil your figure. Ask me how I know.
Considering the cost of most MK stuff, those $20 and $35 sales were probably one or two people buying the cheapest thing available because they got too close to the table before they realized what it was, and didn’t want to be rude by running away.
All of the leads, I’m sure, are going to ghost them.
Don’t forget the woman who set up a Mary Kay table at her campground. (Don’t people go camping to “get away” and enjoy the outdoors?)
I recently heard one say her community had a yard sale, so she set up her MK table and sign. She was so proud of herself. (I thought yard sales were a no-no.)
On another note, get ready for “Customer Appreciation Days” coming up in June. Are you wanting to buy some cheap MK products? Wait until next month when extra-desperate consultants are in a frenzied “push to the finish line.” No need for you to pay full price. Ever.
Avon’s Skin So Soft keeps the mosquitoes away, and a table full of Mary Kay products keeps EVERYONE away! 🤣
Cassie Leopard…in leopard print pants 🤣
1. Don’t the Directors and Sales people dress up any more?
2. You cannot sell at a (Insert anyplace but a party/ facial here) At least in mine day it was illegal to sell at a craft fair/ teachers appreciation/ etc. I could only collect contact info.
Remember that the sales are often at a sale price…meaning that the IBC is making less than 50% profit on that sale because of a BOGO or 25% off.
Let’s break it down. If Rebecca Neal “sold” $30 at the long-term care facility party, at MOST she took home $15 in profit. Now, deduct her mileage, section 2 items, giveaways, and any discounts included and hostes gifts. Gabrielle Jones and that $0 party? It cost her to go. It cost her a lot! A lot of time, preparation, product, and energy. I had those parties too. She will not see them again as a customer because they already have a skincare system and makeup that they like and it ain’t Mary Kay.
