Not as bad as I think it is

This last week ended with me thinking that I didn't do very well. I held 3 skin care classes and did not really sell much. However, when I averaged up the amount that I made to the amount that I actually worked, it turned out to be pretty good. 

I was a little bit discouraged, but just talking to people really helps! And they have a hotline that you can listen to that boosts you. Even if you aren't doing Mary Kay that day it helps you want to be successful in whatever you do within your day. 

Also, I had a problem with my cell phone. I have never even come close to hitting my maximum amount for my minutes. But this month, I only had 90 left out of 1000 by the time I realized I was close and I still had 10 more days!! Solution: My husband and I have been trying to figure out if it would be less expensive to get on a family plan together. He is on a plan with his parents and it is fairly inexpensive. We looked into it and he made me a spread sheet. It appears it would be less expensive for me to stay with my current provider because they have a new promotion. So, I called them and asked them about it. I was able to keep everything the same and get UNLIMITED minutes for only $5.00 more. It turned out great! Now I never have to worry about my minutes and I can do as much business as I need to. 

I also tried our new limited time LIP GLOSS! WOW is it glossy! It's amazing and doesn't dry out my lips! I'm thinking of giving away a free one to a girl who is super cute and super trendy and tell her it is free if she helps me spread the word about it. 

So, as much as I thought I wasn't doing well. Here is my running total for the week.

Hours worked: 3

Sold: $162

Profit: $81

Hourly Earnings: $27/hr

Not as bad as I thought I was doing.
