2 4 New Consultant Checklist As a new Mary Kay Independent Beauty Consultant, you might be asking yourself, What s next? Where do I start? These First Steps can help! Consider these steps to help you get started: 1. PRAY! As you take God as your business partner, pray for clear vision, purpose, passion, courage, prosperity, people you can make a difference with and a POSITIVE ATTITUDE! 2. MAKE A LIST OF 30 PEOPLE WITH SKIN. Choose 30 people (friends, family, co-workers, church family, etc people you would invite to your wedding) to practice on first and invite to your business debut. Highlight 5 special women you think would be great associates on your team and invite them to your next meeting. 3. PUT YOUR KIT TOGETHER & BEGIN READING YOUR CAREER ESSENTIALS BOOK. You won t believe all of the goodies you get for $ Pull out your paperwork and put it in a notebook. Listen to your audio tapes starting with Taking Stock (Side B of Tape 1). Read 15 minutes each day from the Career Essentials booklet. 4. MAKE AN INVENTORY DECISION. The decision to have product on hand is a very important one for you and your clients. It is completely optional to have inventory stock on hand to have on the spot delivery for your clients. But virtually all consultants start with something. Inventory increases your initial sales by 50%, and saves you time. Remember that you are not going to create debt by purchasing stock; it is an investment of which you will make a 50% profit. You will also receive FREE PRODUCT BONUSES only on your first order with the company. The amount of inventory needed will depend on how many appointments and hours you plan to work every week. I will go over the enclosed business plan to help you figure our what s best for your business. 5. SELECT YOUR PERSONAL USE PRODUCTS. You will sell what you wear and personally love. You ve got to be your best client. Throw out all other Brand X and start being a walking advertisement for your business. We will help you find your best look. 6. BOOK YOUR BUSINESS DEBUT & POWER START. Pick a date within 2 weeks to hold your business debut. Your debut is usually held in your home and takes about 2 hours. The purpose of the debut is to book classes and introduce your friends to Mary Kay products. Start to schedule your practice classes, using the script enclosed in this packet to complete your Power Start. 7. Do the 7 DAY WONDER CHALLENGE. Complete this challenge in the first 7 days from training and win a Beautiful Pink Ice Ring!! This is a fun contest to initiate your first sales and introduce product. 8. ATTEND WEEKLY NEW CONSULTANT TRAINING CLASSES. Training is very important to your success. There are many areas of your business that you need to learn about and master. Plus, it is easy to get distracted and unmotivated when you are in the daily grind of life. Everyone needs to get pumped up and have a positive support system. DO NOT MISS THE SUCCESS MEETINGS, even if you do not feel like going. When you treat your business like you treat your other job, it will pay you abundantly. But if you treat this like a hobby, it will pay you like one. When you attend the Success Meetings for 13 weeks in a row, I will award you with a gorgeous jeweled business calculator. 9. OPEN A SEPARATE CHECKING ACCOUNT FOR YOUR BUSINESS. Establish a personal checking account that has a Visa/MasterCard attached. All Mary Kay money will be deposited weekly into this account. Never co-mingle MK monies with your personal account. 10. TALK TO YOUR RECRUITER. Should you need further assistance seek out the help of your recruiter or leave me a detailed message (via phone or ) with your specific question and phone number, and I or one of my assistants will return your call shortly.

11 Mary Kay Inventory You have the choice in Mary Kay to service your customers in one of two manners: 1. Deliver product to your customers as soon as they place their order. You carry product in your home, which you have purchased in advance to sell to your customers. 2. Customers place their product orders to you, and you in turn accumulate orders to place and order to the company to service your customers for the products they need. A decision to purchase inventory depends on two factors: 1. RESOURCES - Do you have the capability to make the purchases? 2. GOALS - What level you choose should depend on your business goals. The single most important issue involved with inventory is that you make a decision that you are happy with, so that you are able to focus on succeeding in your Mary Kay business. Either choose to carry inventory or place orders to the company to service customers, but either way make a decision and be happy with your decision. Benefits of Having Inventory on Hand Higher Sales Women want their products as soon as they try them. Your sales will be 50% higher if you carry inventory to give immediately to your customers. Less Returns Women do not usually change their mind once they have the product in their hands. If they have to wait for product they can change their mind about their order due to stress, money or husband. Confidence You are more likely to actively work your business if you have product on your shelf. You will feel like a professional and have more confidence in your sales ability. Motivation Your inventory will motivate you to do your business when you lack self-motivation. Product sitting on your shelf will get you out there selling! It s instant cash!! Profit You will see a profit quicker from carrying inventory. If you have to place orders, it takes longer to see profit. Also, you can see a higher commission level from your sales, since you will need to order less often. Higher Reorders and Less Customer Drop Off If you are able to immediately service your customers once they run out, they will learn to depend on you. If you have to place an order to the company, they may look for another consultant who carries inventory. Less Frustration The consultants who do not carry products tend to get frustrated with their business. Not carrying inventory is one of the most common reasons for a consultant to drop out.

12 Ways to Purchase Inventory 1. Credit Card Loan most new consultants put their initial inventory order on a credit card, realizing they are not going into debt, but instead investing for a 50% return. Visa, MasterCard, and Discover all have ways to borrow money. Mary Kay Cosmetics will accept Visa, MasterCard and Discover. You must be sure to have enough available credit on the card to cover your purchase. It is simple to find this out by calling the bank issuing your card and asking what your credit balance is. We recommend you use a separate bank card for your Mary Kay business, if one is available. Remember, if you finance your business using a credit card your interest is TAX DEDUCTABLE! Credit Card Resources: US Bank or USBANKS (get an instant # & expiration date) Citi Advantage Air Miles Master Card Unit Mileage Plus Air Visa Platinum Miles One Visa Capital One Conventional Loan - This type of loan from a bank will help you establish credit in your own name. If you are married, be sure to get the loan in your name. They prefer loaning larger amounts usually $2,500 to $3,000 minimum. The rates are usually reasonable and there is usually no pre-payment penalty, should you decide to pay your loan off quickly. 3. Passbook Loan you borrow against the money you have in a savings account. 4. Life Insurance Loan you can borrow against your life insurance usually at a very low rate of interest. 5. Credit Union Loan If you are employed and have a Credit Union; or if married, your spouse might have a Credit Union at this place of employment. Credit Unions are traditionally a source of low interest loans. Processing your loan may take 2 to 3 weeks. 6. Mary Kay Bank Visa - Your recruiter can provide you with a credit card application for Mary Kay Bank Visa, a credit card available to you on terms negotiated by Mary Kay Cosmetics. The disadvantage to using this option is that credit approval requires 6 to 8 weeks. We recommend you express mail your application for faster service. 7. Family Loan many times there are members of your family willing to help you start your career. It is recommended that the arrangement be made on a loan basis where you pay this money back in monthly installations. Co-signers If you do not have a lengthy credit history or have not been employed long enough, having a cosigner (parent, relative, close friend) may help you qualify. 8. Secured Loan you can use your automobile, your home, stocks and bonds, certificate of deposit, etc. as collateral. Along with banks, financial institutions such as Beneficial, Morris Plan, Avco, etc. offer a variety of loan packages. 9. Have a garage sale - Other people will pay you good money for items you sell. The good news is that you ll be able to make $2 for each $1 you put into Mary Kay. 10. Get your Hustle On - Take the 100 Item Challenge (100 items x an average of $10 =$1,000) you can use your sweat equity as a last resource to finance your business.
