Pros
I have been involved with Mary Kay since I was 20. I am now 46. I have done Mary Kay in many facets of my life, single, married, with no children, pregnant, miscarriages, divorced, single mom with small children and then with teenage children. I also put my husband through college with the money I have earned with my Mary Kay business. I have seen many economic times through my business and the one thing that has remained constant through all of these almost 26 years is that I have been in control of my paycheck and my schedule. Having the freedom to work when I want to, and how much I need to. when I need more money. has been a huge blessing at times. Mary Kay Inc. also gives women the positive means to know they can do the business through a great product and through building our self-esteem. Now that I am a Sales Director, I can pass that on to my consultants and Sales Directors. Mary Kay Ash. was the Best Female Business Women in the World by many standard, she changes millions of womens lives and in turn helped their families.
Cons
The only downside I see is that you have to be willing to be self-disciplined. Being your own boss is great because you can set your own schedule but it also means you might procrastinate from time to time. Setting priorities and having commitments and following through on them is essential to making a business like this successful.
