Written by SuzyQ Oh, your first 30 days in Mary Kay Cosmetics. Such an exciting time! So much to learn! So much to do! 30 faces in your first 30 days! But here’s the reality of what goes on those first 30 days…. There is no inventory requirement, but your …
They tell you that Mary Kay is all about selling cosmetics. You can make so much money, just for sharing these products with women who already use cosmetics and skin care. Yet women are not profiting from product sales. First, because they sell so few products and spend so much …
