Something To Consider
Today, many women are looking for a way to improve their families' finances. Some women will choose to work to enhance their present income while others are looking to work for personal fulfillment. Whatever the reason, most women will consider taking on a part time position.

Let's say that you are considering enhancing your current income and would like to earn an extra $5,000 this year.
Then consider the following Scenario:

As a Full Time working woman considering an additional Part time position you would most likely work week nights or on the weekends ( They would schedule your time).
Most part time positions require a minimum of 10-20 hours a week and pay an average or $8.00 to $10.00 per hour. Even if you considered waitressing, your average hourly wage would be $2.35 per hour plus tips which equals approximately $8.00 to $10.00 per hour
In order to reach your $5,000 goal you would need to work an average of 16 hours a week for the next 39 weeks (9 months) at $8.00 per hour. A total of 625 hours of work to earn an extra $5,000 gross earnings. Now add this amount of time to your full time position and that would be about 56+ hours a week working (not including travel time).

Now compare this same scenario to having a part time career in Mary Kay

Let's say you hold at least 1 skin care class, 6 women in attendance. The total time it takes to teach these women how to take care of their skin is 30 minutes. Add on another 30 minutes to fill their orders and one hour round trop in travel time. A total of 2 hours (includes travel time).
Three of the six women purchase a Miracle Set at $104.00. Your total class sales would be $312.00. This is just in Time Wise Skin Care class sales and does not include any glamour or skin supplements.
Hold 8 classes like the above a month, 2 per week, 16 hours of work per month, and sell 24 Time Wise Sets. Do this every week for the next 12 weeks, (3 months) and you will gross $7488. That's a total of 48 hours worked, including travel time.
Service these 72 Time Wise Skin Care clients for the next 6 months, 2 hours every week in phone time. These 100 clients will need to reorder their Time Wise Set every 3 months from you.
In 9 months you can gross $15,000 with only 48 hours of initial work including travel time for a total of 96 hours worked in 9 months. Your net could be $6,000.

SO THE QUESTION IS: " HOW VALUABLE IS YOUR TIME?"

Could you work 48 hours compared to 625 hours to enjoy the extra income of at least $5,000? You be the judge.
