SAPPHIRE STAR $1800 WHOLESALE RUBY STAR $2400 WHOLESALE DIAMOND STAR EMERALD STAR PEARL STAR $3000 WHOLESALE $3600 WHOLESALE $4800 WHOLESALE Here are some “TIME AFTER TIME” ideas to be a Star Consultant this quarter and every quarter. Shoot for being an ALL FOUR QUARTER Star to reach your highest potential! 1. E-parties. Set a goal to have at least 5 e-hostesses. E-parties can be done via facebook and through MK InTouch evites and using e-mail. 2. Hand out (X) chocolates or a silk flower with your card and a sample attached. Go to different offices and go in with a smile on your face and be professionally dressed. You can check out the services and hand chocolates/roses to the person that you are speaking to OR just say, "By the way, this is for you." You can also honor professional women and offer multiple roses/chocolates. One third of the people that you see will say, "WOW, Mary Kay, I LOVE Mary Kay!! I've been looking for a consultant!!! Do you have _______ product? I love it!” You'll have an excited new customer! 3. Set a goal to have X number of women attend Spa Parties—they can be waterless, too. Also set a goal of how many women you will invite to a local meetings. 4. Set a goal to add 10 women to your Before and After Portfolio before the month has ended. Models are so much fun! Your portfolio can include: Redheads, Brunettes, Blondes, Silver Foxes, New Moms, Nurses, Secretaries, Teachers, Realtors, Stay at Home Moms, Home School Moms, Teens and their moms, Blue eyes, Brown eyes, Green eyes, Hazel eyes, etc. It goes on and on. 5. If you don't know where to begin, select 2-3 people that intimidate you. Tell them that your director has challenged you to offer makeovers to people that you would love to work with, but they intimidate you just a little. (You might be really surprised at the response). Starting Something Beautiful…. Amanda Martinez Cheryl J. Ryan From PUEBLO, CO PUEBLO WEST, CO Sharing Dreams... M. Ulibarri M. Ulibarri August/September is typically the time when kids head back to school. Whether you are a grandmother, babysitter or parent—you are finding that you now have free-time to work your Mary Kay business, so what to do with all of this free time? Here are some ideas:  Take advantage of a Weekly Accom- plishment sheet each week to make sure you schedule time to “DO LIFE”..and fit your business within. “DOING LIFE” would include picking kids up from school, taking them to activities, making dinner, grocery shopping, etc. etc.  Try to schedule your Mary Kay business in 2-4 hour increments 3 times a week—that would give you enough time for about 3 parties and this includes travel time. A party generally can be anywhere from 45 minutes to 1 1/2 hours, depending upon your format.  Life throws unexpected surprises, so be sure that you have some “extra” time planned for Mary Kay time. This might be a time that would be free time or space where you would need to delegate. If you are out making money, it is worth it! Thank you Gloria Mayfield Banks Name Cheryl J.

Order SKIN CARE SAMPLES and brochures! Step two! Put 10 of them in your purse! Each day! Step three! Talk to at least 10 women each day! Say: "(As you know) I am with Mary Kay Cosmetics and we have a brand new skin care system on the market (PUT THE SAMPLE PACKET IN THEIR HANDS AT THIS POINT). I need to get the opinion of 50 people this week on this product. All you need to do is take this sample home try 1/2 tonight and the other half in the morning. I'll call you tomorrow and ask you a couple of questions about the product." (TAKE A NOTEBOOK WITH ONE NAME, PHONE # AND EMAIL ADDRESS ON IT, per line). Say, "What is your name? And a number where I can reach you tomorrow. What is a good time to call? Great, I know you're probably a busy person, so may I have your email address in case I have trouble getting you at that time? Thank you so much and I can't wait to hear what you think of it." 7/1/2014 - 6/30/2015 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Cheryl J. Ryan Lorena Moffitt T. Bowens-Staples Rita Kurtz Countess L. Lee Charyse A.
