A Question from one of our Readers

SpecialtyCincyMay 30, 2012 5:04 PM

I have a question? Do you ever keep money for yourself or do you always use your profits to purchase more product? I'll interesting in selling MK and I don't want to buy things to sell to buy more things to sell. I'd like to pay my bills?

My answer is absolutely one can make money.. managing it and reinvesting and taking a profit needs to be done properly. There are several articles on here with details but I will work on a new post and have it up soon.

Thank you for your questions... stay tuned!!

What did you Think about the Live MK Event?

MKTV Live Education Event Video
Published 05.16.12
Thank you for supporting the MKTV New Consultant Education Event on Monday, May 14. Thousands of you tuned in for a night filled with great education, motivation and excitement. Unfortunately, some of the excitement included some technical glitches.

But don’t worry! We recorded the event and will post the video on InTouch in the near future. Be sure to check the MK News section often for information about where to find the video once it is ready.

Independent National Sales Director Diana Sumpter, Elite Executive Senior Sales Director Mia Mason Taylor and Future Executive Senior Sales Director Leah Lauchlan shared powerful tips and experiences that we know all new Independent Beauty Consultants will want to hear!

My Apology

I have removed the post that offended Lori,and anyone else. I sincerely apologize. I would never intentionally offend anyone. As for being "racist" Well, anyone that knows me, knows I love everyone no matter what race, creed, color, region, sex, etc.. one & all and God created each and everyone of us. I am the furthest thing from racist there is.

I am saddened that something little and by no means ill spirited can be taken so out of context and be called racist, seeing your reaction perhaps in poor taste but not racist. Also by no means was your comment respectful. I would have removed it immedieately if you had emailed me with your issue with it.

In my opinion I wish some people could just relax and lighten up, we would have far less stress over being "politically" correct all the time. Being Italian - I make comments about me and "my Italian" traits all the time. Also ie: I may say something to my husband about being a "Ram" / horoscope .. and how he likes to butt heads.. it is said tongue and cheek and in good humor with no ill intent. would that make me racist as well? I thought it was cute and enjoyed it and it made me smile. But I will apologize again and it is removed.

I sincerely hope that with the time, energy, and effort put into this blog, you were able to find something of benefit for you. Seeing in the many years since we have been publishing this is the first item I have been rudely insulted and called out. Hopefully there were many articles that were to your liking before you read the one that offended you and you will continue read.

Deadline Reminder!!

Remember the Deadline for enrolling our clients in the Summer PCP (Preferred Customer Program) is tomorrow night!! This is an amazing tool available to us. It would cost far more to go to the post office and mail the Look Book yourself and that one would not have samples in it!!

My sales always go crazy when my clients receive their new book!!

and remember televised event is tonight 7:30 Central Time, have you registered yet?
