Pros
I love working for Mary Kay, because I am in charge of my income... I can chose to work a little and make a little or work a lot and make a lot...I set my own schedule and work at my pace. I like not feeling stressed about having to please a boss. I please my customers and life is great...You can move quickly or slowly...You are truly in charge of your destiny!!! I love the leadership I have in encouraging other women to succeed in life!
Cons
I think a lot of women are under the misunderstanding that they can make millions overnight, direct sales is just like a franchise, it takes time and money to build your customer base... It does not happen overnight. It does take a couple of years of tremendous effort, but once your established it becomes much easier.
