I was just thinking today "damn, WHY did I get involved in this?" My friend pushed me into it. Now, I LOVE the products but the whole process is absolutely ridiculous. It's made for those who are, as you say, going to sell the crap out of it. Every quarter you have to start with a $400 sale. That's easy if you have regular customers and are having parties galore. For someone like me who does it basically for the discount and the few customers I did have, it doesn't work. Plus, there is so much product knowledge that I can't keep up with it. I can't make the weekly meetings that are 45 min away. So now I'm trying to find a makeup company comparable to MK with decent prices.
I'm thinking about going into Origami Owl. I'm having a catalogue party soon.
