Mary Kay, Inc Marketing Plan
Avenues of Income
1. Classes/Parties/Shows or Facials - 50% Commission
This is the highest direct sales commission paid in the United States. Sales
at an average class with (6) guests average approximately $300. Sales at a
facial with one or two people average approximately $100.
2. Reorders - 50% Commission
Our product is consumable, like bread or milk, so reorders become a large part of our income. An average
customer using the basic skin care, some glamour and body care items will reorder about $225 each year.
3. Dovetail - 15% Commission
With our priorities of God, Faith and Family when a consultant is unable to hold an appointment, another
consultant can take the appointment and pay the original consultant who booked it a 15% dovetail fee.
This allows us to keep our lives in balance and not disappoint a customer.
