Vantaggi
Some good products, training on par with professional standards.
Svantaggi
No professional qualifications, no official recognised certification. Income from sales alone does not give you a full income, you are responsible for all costs and expenses, this includes packaging & postage for orders from the company as well as costs to deliver to your customers. You have to put in minimum amount of purchases to qualify for commissions, so if you have customers buying under this minimum, you do not receive the wholesale discount, you have to buy more products to get the commission otherwise you pay full retail price! You do not get paid a salary based on hours worked, no career advancement without recruiting, which makes this a pyramid scheme. You do not run your own business, you’re not an Independent Contractor or a Business Owner, the business is owned by the Rogers Family who own Mary Kay Inc, they make the decisions on what products to sell, what the branding looks like, what the price point is, what promotions to run, they own the organisation, not the sales reps.
