It's SHOWTIME!
So this past Saturday I finally had my debut party for my Mary Kay business.
It was a... SUCCESS!A normal party is usually 5-6 people. I had 14 who R.S.V.P.'d, but had 9 show. From what I've been told -- that's A LOT (:
I was so nervous! I woke up early [like usual] so I could start preparing the food I had planned and to give me time in case my newbie woke up. Which he did and wouldn't let this mama catch a break. So I woke up his daddy & reminded him he had baby duty ALL day (: So off to the kitchen I went.
My menu was:
- Buffalo Chicken Dip
- Fiesta Ranch Dip
- Veggie Platter
- Fruit Bowl
Well some of the ladies I invited didn't really know me; they were invited since their hubbies work with mine. So we decided we'd also have a mini BBQ so their hubbies could stick around to make them feel more comfortable. Turns out only 1 came from that group of invites. Which was no biggy; we still had a good time!
Addition to my menu:
- Hot Dogs
- Burgers
- Beer
My lovely director did awesome as always. All the girls liked her and all I had to do was
Pretty much everyone ordered. I made over $540!
I'm on a mission. This is my hustle. This is my grind. I was terrified at first considering I don't have a lot of girlfriends and I'm definitely not a people person [at least I didn't think I was]. This business isn't making me do a double take. I actually enjoy it! The recognition I get and how successful I've been so far is... empowering. I feel like I can do anything. The unit I'm with is amazing too! It's full of awesome women, full of fun/creative ideas to keep their businesses going strong.
So far I have one member on my team -- that took me by surprise too. I'm glad she did though. That didn't take place at my party, that happened at one of our monthly "Girls Night Out". I would love to expand my team, but that's not a personal goal I set for myself. If it happens, it happens.
xo,
sss
