Change of heart
I went to a sweet 16 last night. It was really fun. I saw alot of my cousins that i hadn’t seen in a long time. I actually wore a dress. I was pretty self-conscious and all. There was a free bar, but despite that. Barely anyone drank. At the end of the part they were packing up boxes and boxes of beer, liquor, and wine. There were 105 people there. It was big.
I decided that i’m not in any position at the moment to sell Mary Kay cosmetics. I thought you could just order whatever your customers wanted, but you need to order a wholesale amount of 200 dollars to get the wholesale discount prices. I have no way of buying inventory, due to my last manic episode that i ended up with a near-maxed out credit card. Almost 5k in debt. My recruiter was trying to tell me ways of getting funding for inventory. Those ways included, loans, credit cards, and selling my own things. Yeah, i’ll pass.
I feel bad for ducking out on her, but i’m not going to get myself into anymore debt than i already am. Maybe next time.
I hope she doesn’t call me to talk to me about my “decision” etc. That would be annoying.

Hi there – I’m looking to start a blog and came across your post re. starting your own MK business. I have no inventory either, and am going to take it as it comes. You need to be true to yourself. It’s a great company and a great opportunity, but it has to be right for you. Your director will hopefully respect that – but be BLUNTLY honest and tell her exactly what you need from her re. growing the business when you’re ready. Take care of yourself!
