The Importance of the Interview

NSD Linda Toupin



The interview sets the stage for your new team members success. What you
say and the attitude that you present to her at this time becomes gospel. It is
during the Interview that she buys her own company and decides how it will
run. Once that stage has been set it is VERY, VERY difficult to change the
mindset that has been purchased.

Many people join the company not necessarily through fact but through
emotion. Certainly emotion is a big part of the process but it should not be the
only consideration. For example if a consultant joins your team just to help
you out or because it looks like fun you may find it difficult to enroll her in
boot camp, proper inventory, a business debut etc.


Things that should be thoroughly discussed prior to her making the decision:

1. Go through all the steps of the marketing plan.many a director today will
tell you that she caught the vision of directorship in the interview. Women
today are looking for management positions. They have already been suc-
cessful in the business world...This type of women wants to know how she
can quickly move into that position.

2. Cost of the Starter Kitdont forget about Smart Starts and Web Page.

3. How long before the starter kit arrives. (typically)

4. Go through the contents of the welcome packet with her.

5. Dates of Boot Camp. (Have her write them down )

6. Dates of all local success meetings. (Have her write them down)

7. Business Debut (Let her know that a definite date will be set once you
know when her inventory will be arriving.)

8. Inventory the next step. (All consultants joining the company
should know that there is a 2nd decision. An amount that could range
from $200-$3600.)

9. There will times when you will want me to discuss inventory with her
on the tape and there will times when you want to go ahead and make
that decision at the time she signs the agreement.




10. Leave her with the assignment of looking through her welcome
packet within 48 hours and listening to Next Step . As she listens to
the CD ask her to write down any and all of her questions. Those
with a more confident personality may also be challenged to begin
taking orders from her friends and family. Encourage her at every
step to being a good student.








Overcoming objections is nothing more than being a problem solver.

Look forward to her objections they are an opportunity for you to get
to know her better and will give you an opportunity to better custom-
design this career around her particular values, wants and needs.

RECRUITING OBJECTIONS


Dont know anyone. Great. You know strangers are only people we havent met
yet.

I only know a few people. Great. Do they have skin on their face and are they
breathing or- Invite those 2 people and ask those 2 people to ask 2 people.

100% When I start something. Great. Put 100% into 2-3 hours and who knows
what you will accomplish in this business.

I have to ask my husband._ Great. Dont you agree its better to ask for
forgiveness than for permission?
Boyfriend.- Get rid of him.

Where am I going to get the people. Are you trainable.

Fear of Failure. Try it. There is nothing to lose.

Im too shy. You know I havent met a shy person yet that says I just love being shy.
Dont you agree?

I cant sell. You know in Mary Kay we teach skin care and the product practically
sells itself.

I dont have any money. Great. Thats why you need Mary Kay so you can never
say those words again.

I have children. You know in Mary Kay we have the greatest flexibility to work
around our kids and they will learn and grow up in a positive environment.

I love my job. You must be a positive person to begin with and you will only
supplement in Mary Kay.

I dont wear makeup. Great Do you wash your face?

Its not the right time. You know if we waited for all the lights to turn green to get
home we would never get home.

I dont have the time. If your boss asked you to work 2-3 hours extra for $50-$100
would you do it?

Im afraid to stand up in front of people. You could start out with just facials, one on
one.
RECRUITING

INVITE SOMEONE TO EVERYTHING!

FOUR POINT RECRUITING PLAN

1. Ask your hostess, Whos coming tonight and who will be great at what I doing?
Ask her questions about her guests to see what is going on in their lives. This way
you will know if there is a particular woman there you should pay close attention to.
It will make the guests feel more comfortable with you if you make things more on a
personal level and show that you are concerned about them.

Also include the following when talking to your hostess, ____________, watch
me tonight and see if this is something you would consider for yourself. I think
you would be great.

2. Cracker Jack Recruiting Talk Your success story talk about yourself (I story)
and how you got in, why you got in, why do you stay in Mary Kay, and success about
your director. Talk from your heart! Show Charisma!

3. Pick the one who is most enthusiastic to offer this opportunity or select one of the
guest to be a training model for you.

Im in leadership training with Mary Kay Cosmetics and my director has
challenged me to have a model Tuesday night. Would you honor me and be my
model to help me complete my training. Its the best night of the whole month and
I have a special gift just for you. (Tell them to dress professionally.)

COFFEE TRACK
What I suggest we do is sit down over a cup of coffee and let me tell you what
Mary Kay is, how it works and how it might benefit you and your family. If,
after you thoroughly understand it you think it might be something that would
work for you, I would be delighted to sponsor you into Mary Kay. On the other
hand, if you feel it is something that would not benefit you and your family, I
would be the first to tell you, DONT DO IT!



4. Offer the hostess a gift for recommending someone and if they sign, offer a discount
of 50% for 6 months or a year (your choice).

Always Remember

SOME WILL SOME WONT SOME ARE WAITING
Creating an I-Story with Charisma and Passion
LaRonda Daigle

Prospects do not sign because we earn 50% profit. They make their final
decision on the emotion that was gathered during someones story. They step
into your story and have the feeling, if they can do it, why cant I!

On the other hand, if you do not take the time to create a story that will have
them coming out of their seats, you may never spark an interest.

You may say, I am not as successful as you LaRonda. You may not have
achieved what most of the top Directors and Nationals have thus far, but I
joined only 16 years ago! Because I learned very fast to get out of myself and
get into others, God has blessed me tremendously in my business. You will
become all that you were meant to be, if you show passion for what you
believe in.

Now, I want to take you back before Mary Kay came into your life. I am
going to ask you questions, because your answers may relate to someone else.
You need to learn how to show emotion in developing a powerful success
story. You need to make people laugh and also have emotions of wanting
more in life.

Here are some questions that I ask any Consultant or Director when creating
their Success Story:

What were your thoughts about Mary Kay before getting involved with
the products or company?
When you saw a Pink Cadillac, what did you think?
Where do you currently work?
What do you enjoy best about what you do?
What would you change about what you currently do at your present
job?
How did you meet your consultant?
How did you respond to having a facial or a skin care class?
Did you really want to have the facial or class?
Did you want to go to the meeting?
Did you feel bothered by the consultant?
Did you love the products?
Did you buy anything?
Was money tight for you?
When you heard about the opportunity, what were your thoughts and
feelings?
Did you want to hear more about the opportunity?
What part of the marketing plan impressed you? Money, etc.
Why did it impress you?
Did you know you could make that kind of money in Mary Kay?
Were you a practice interview? Did you go there just to help out?
When you met your Director, what were your thoughts?
What did you see in her that you wanted?
When you signed your agreement, were you nervous, scared, etc.?
When you woke up the next morning, what were your thoughts?
Were there any negative people in your life that wanted you to not be a
part of Mary Kay?
What is your purpose?
Why did you make the decision?
How have you grown in Mary Kay?
What are your goals?


You need to answer these questions and put together your I-Story! Your story
will grow; as you grow into the person that God intend you to be.

Tips:
1. Do not talk about other Direct Sales Companies.
2. Do not say, I thought Mary Kay was like the Ding Dong Lady.
Remember that someones mother raised him or her on Avon.
3. Do not say, I thought Mary Kay was for Old Ladies or Blue hair
ladies. You must say for more mature women. Remember, we have
many successful mature women in Mary Kay.

Have fun creating your story with passion and charisma. I know the Mary Kay
world will hear your story on the Seminar Stage.

It is a choice to be great in life. Be great in Mary Kay! Remember, you are
selling the Dream of Mary Kay! It does not matter what has not happened,
what matters is what is going to happen. Believe in the power of the Dream!

By using the following dialogue, you can develop the habit of bringing guests to your unit functions
and increase your recruiting average!

Hello, Jane! This is Sue with Mary Kay Cosmetics. I wont keep you but a minute. Jane, youve
been on my mind because (share a special quality she may havegreat hostess, customer, a
woman of her word, etc.). The reason I am calling is because I would like to invite you to our

helping me out with my training. I will have a special gift for you just for attending! I can pick you up.
Is there any reason why you couldnt attend?

If you ask one person a day, you will have contacted seven people and should have four yeses.
Taking into consideration the possibility of a last minute cancellation, at least two of those you asked
should be able to make it. Dont forget to follow up with those who couldnt make it that week.
Theres always next Wednesday! Get them excited about coming the next time.

FOLLOW UP WITH YOUR GUESTS
On the morning of the day of the unit meeting or guest event, call your guest and say, Im just calling
to confirm the time and place for me to pick you up. I am really looking forward to showing you off
this evening!

HOW TO INTRODUCE YOUR GUESTS
Use a four-part format, but keep it short!
1. Introduce your guest by name
2. Tell how you know them or how you met them
3. Pay each guest a genuine compliment
4. Have each guest tell something about herself

Example: Im so pleased to present Jane Brown. Jane is one of my hostesses and shes been using
Mary Kay for over two years! She has a positive attitude and loves to look her best, so I know shell
enjoy our meeting tonight. Jane, please tell us a little about yourself.

EXAMPLES OF INTRODUCTIONS
I am happy to introduce you to
Let me acquaint you with
I am honored to present my guest
I want you to meet my guest

EXAMPLES OF GENUINE COMPLIMENTS
Jane has a dynamic personality.
Jane is a woman of her word or integrity
Jane works with the public and she really knows how to look her best.
Jane is one of my preferred customers.
Jane is one of my best hostesses, and her skin care classes are a pleasure to hold.

AVOID SAYING:
This is Jane Brown, and shes here to look us over or This is Jane Brown, and Ive been working to
try to get her to become a Consultant. It may embarrass her.

Practice saying introductions out loud until they become second nature to you. This will help increase
your confidence and make your guests feel more at ease.

START PLANNING NOW WHO YOULL BRING TO OUR NEXT UNIT FUNCTION!
Mary Kay Image Tips from Barbie!


In 2003, Mary Kay offered a collectors edition Barbie as a Star Consultant Prize. There was a lot of excitement
about her, and we learned some very interesting information about her design. One of the National Sales Directors
shared that Mattel sent the company a prototype doll for design approval. She arrived with big fluffy hair, a very short
skirt, no hose, and strappy shoes. Mary Kay sent her back! Star Consultant Barbie is a businesswoman! they said.
She needs to look professional! So Barbie got a makeover. Youll notice that Star Consultant Barbie is well-
groomed, tasteful, and tailored. She looks feminine, yet ready for business. She dresses the part and is ready for
success. If she could talk, shed have a thing or two to tell us about image. Since she cant, Ill take a guess at what
she might say!


Barbies make-up looks great! Check the Look
Book, fashion magazines, and your sister
Consultants to make sure your colors are
current and that your application is flattering.
If you don't feel confident in this area, ask your
Director or a sister Consultant for help. If
youve been wearing the same colors for
years, its time for a change!

Barbies hair is professional and
up- to-date. Ive heard it said that if
you havent had a compliment on
your hair in the last two weeks, you
need to cut it, dye it, or buy some
more! If youve worn your hair the
same way for a long time, consider
a consultation with a stylist you trust.



Barbie has chosen one Mary Kay pin
to wear. Keeping pins to a minimum
maintains a professional look. Theyre all
important; just dont wear them all at once!




Barbies smile is contagious! The most
important part of your image is your
attitude! Be positive and look for the
solutions, not the problems, in everything
you see. Youll attract customers by your
enthusiasm.



Barbie is headed to the top in her Star
Recruiter Red Jacket and her Star
Consultant Pin. These symbols of
success are important goals for any
Consultant! With consistent sales and
team building efforts, you too can reach
these levels of achievement.



At all Mary Kay events, you
can bet Barbie has brought
her notebook, her datebook,
and her check- book. Make
it a point to always have
those three things with you!




Barbies shoes are a closed-toe
business style. A low to medium heel
is flattering and practical for most
women. Find a high-quality pair of
black, leather shoes, and youve made
a great investment. Remember, no
white shoes after Labor Day! You can
wear open toe shoes to MK events.



By Future Exec. Senior Director Amy Duncan, 03...edited by www.cindras.net 2011


Mary Kay Consultants have long
been set apart by their attire. We
ask that you always wear a skirt to all
MK functions and selling situations.
This means a dress or skirted suit or
outfit that could be considered
business attire. Be sure the skirt is
in a flattering length for you. Skirts
that are too short dont look
professional.





You cant tell in this picture, but Barbie is wearing
hose. Hose should always be in a lighter color
than your shoes (no navy hose with white shoes!)
and should be free from runs, etc. Invest in good
hose that will be durable and flattering. Mary Kay
used to require that all Consultants wear
pantyhose to Company Events, but that is no
longer a requirement, but is professional.

Your professional image doesnt have to cost a lot of
money. If your wardrobe doesnt include business
attire, invest in one or two quality outfits you really like
and then wear them to everything! Many Consultants
wear a white blouse and black skirt until they are in
their Red J ackets. Those pieces will be great
additions to your closet, and youll be ready for the
J acket when you earn it! Quality clothing always pays
off.
