Mondays With Julie

Posts Tagged ‘Mary Kay’

It has been a very busy last few weeks for me with a full on travel schedule. I have travelled through out Australia and New Zealand this month. I am currently on a very quick visit to Canberra to see my Dad while he is back in Canberra undergoing his rehabilitation after his amputation.

He is in very good spirits and I am in awe of how he has adjusted to losing his leg I am sure you will agree it is a pretty major event to have happen in your life. Recently I spent six weeks in plaster after breaking my foot and I know the level of frustration I felt during that time. For me there are some key lessons through watching my Dad the first is gratitude for what I have, we often do appreciate what we have until we no longer have it. The second lesson is that it is not what happens to you it is how you respond and react to it.

What is happening in your life at the moment that you can get some lessons from? And what do you need to be more grateful for? Each and every day I count my blessings to have a life that is so fulfilled and rich and to be surrounded by the most amazing people.

My challenge for you this week is to do a gratitude list write down all the amazing things you have in your life starting with the fact you have two beautiful eyes to be reading this with.

So what’s happening in Mary Kay!

It is getting really close to THAT time again … can you believe it is only a matter of three months to Christmas. Mary Kay will be launching its Christmas range early next month and I am sure they will not disappoint you with the new product releases. Be sure to order your products early, as the Christmas range is limited.

Have you checked the community page lately? There are so many tools and resources for you to use check out this style report.

Well I am off to the hospital now and then a quick drive to Sydney to catch an afternoon flight.

See you next week

Building a business with strong foundations is the key to success in any business. Your Mary Kay business is just the same. What better foundation to build your business on than our timewise range of foundation products.

Often the lack of success in your business comes from being ill prepared and lacking confidence and product knowledge in what you have to offer the market place. This week I thought it would be a great opportunity to re visit our new stunning range of foundation products and give you the tools so you can take your business to the next level should you choose.

Watch this short video on the correct application of foundation with beauty expert Luis Casco as he unveils the tips and tricks you can pass on to your customers

Quick question for you … are you using the new primer and foundation? If the answer is No the first step is for you to “fall in love” with these amazing products.

Invest some time in becoming an “expert” they say to be considered an expert you only need to know about 10% more than your customers.

Every woman wants the perfect foundation but only about 17% of women are wearing the correct shade of foundation. I would say that might be an amazing opportunity for you!

Here are the tools of knowledge that you will need to develop a great skill level and confidence in your business. Please take the time to read and study I would even recommend you print them out and put in a folder for easy reference.

• Foundation Placemat
• Foundation Primer fact sheet
• Foundation Primer FAQ
• Foundations – five steps to a flawless finish
• Product fact sheet – Matte liquid foundation
• Product fact sheet – Luminous liquid foundation
• Shade comparison chart
• New foundation FAQ
• Foundation Brush

I will be back next week with another Mondays with Julie, have a fantastic week!

I hope you have had a sensational week and you are enjoying this chilly winter. The days are getting cooler and it sometimes a little difficult to get motivated.

Well even though the weather is cooler there are lots of HOT things happening with Mary Kay this year we have seen the launch of some sensational products and amazing opportunities.

We have lots of new team members and I would like to wish each and every-one of you a very warm welcome to Mary Kay. To check out all the latest news head over to our website www.mkc.net.au where you will also see the latest product releases and announcements.

July 1 brings even more exciting products to our range so be watching out for the applause magazine in the next couple of days.

The last few weeks have been a little crazy for me I have been doing a lot of travel so life has been a bit of a whirlwind. A couple of weeks ago I did a very quick trip to Canberra and caught up with a few of the Canberra consultants it was really wonderful to see you girls again. I am planning another trip in the next few months so I will keep you posted.

Today I taught at the ESRS program in Beenleigh the program has a new format so I would really recommend if at all possible you attend for a refresh. Check the community page for dates and locations.

While I was there today I had an opportunity to catch up with Director Tracey Woodland who is our guest this week on Mondays with Julie. Tracey is a veteran of Mary Kay just like me I am sure you will enjoy her story.

Look forward to seeing you next Monday!

Shine brightly and make every day an amazing adventure

Love and Belief

I am sure you were SHOCKED to see me in a bathrobe when I filmed this week’s Mondays with Julie! The purpose of coming to you in a natural state was that I wanted to share my pyjama day with you and for you to maybe contemplate the same sort of self-indulgence on a semi regular basis.

I Got To Thinking While In The Steam Room…

…how similar life is; you know when you are excited about new possibilities everything is crystal clear and example might be water, then as things get more challenging we become frozen that might be an ice block but then we get excited and generate a bit of momentum that might be the steam! I hear you say … she has lost it!

Not at all my mind just works a little out side the square and if you are feeling a little frustrated or lack some motivation you just need to build a little more steam and get your goals crystallised and then back them up with a plan to execute them.

As you didn’t see in the video I was indulging my self with the new time-wise gel mask I am sure that you and you customers are going to love it.

Have a fantastic week and I will see you next Monday.

Firstly let me apologize that you have not received Mondays with Julie for a couple of weeks. The past few weeks have been a very sad time for us with the passing of Peter’s dad – Pop to all of us. We have spent most of the past month at his bedside in hospital and on the 29th of April he passed away. We held a lovely family funeral on Friday to say our final goodbyes. He is now pain free and in a much better place.

Yesterday was Mothers day and I hope you were all spoilt. Mothers our so special and I wanted to share with you a video clip that just gives a small insight to a typical day … enjoy!

New Products and New Opportunities

All I can say is WOW, WOW AND WOW !!!

Have you checked out all out new products yet? If you have not seen the new compacts and foundations I suggest you go visit the Mary Kay website.

Are you using the new foundation and primer? If not you are missing two of the most amazing products… the reports out there are sensational.

Reports out there are that we are having converts of Chanel and other prestige brands (that pay in excess of $100 for foundation) and now have become loyal to the Mary Kay primer and foundation.

Here is a short video clip of how to apply the new Mary Kay foundations.

Peter and I will be in New Zealand next week for a “wee break” as the kiwis say so I will be looking forward to seeing you in two weeks with Monday’s with Julie.

Shine brightly and live each day as the AWESOME ADVENTURE it is!

This week’s theme is BE, HAVE, DO … hmm what is that all about I hear you ask!

So often we look at super achievers and wonder

• What have they got that I haven’t
• How come they are so talented
• How did they get so lucky
• It is Ok for them
• They have had all the breaks

And the list goes on and on!

What does it take to be a champion in life whether it is in business or in your personal life?

My personal belief is that it is more about … “Who” do we need to be. I guess a great example is Oprah was she born with more opportunity than the average person? Has she had to struggle more than anyone else? Did she have great lots of great connections that she did not have to work for success? Isn’t it funny how so many people who face adversity in their lives achieve the most amazing and outstanding success?

A few years ago I had the honour of meeting a gentleman who’s name is Nick Vujicic you may have heard of Nick as he has been featured on 60 minutes and has a huge following world- wide. I have a photograph of Nick and myself and when I feel things are just a little bit difficult all I need to do is look at Nick and then get on with the task a hand.

I am not sure if you have seen this clip or not but today I would ike to share it with you

Today I was teaching ESRS and it got me to thinking about how blessed my life truly is. When I think back to who I was 29 years and the incredible impact that Mary Kay has had on who I have become. And all the amazing people I have met who have impacted positively on my life.

It all started with a decision to take a risk to step out of my comfort zone.

A decision that I will also understand that has underpinned my success. My point is that some times we need to take that very big step to believing in yourself and your abilities. Today I want you to take that step and BE the person you need to be to move forward to achieving your goals, dreams and desires.

So my question is what do you have to do to become that person?

What are the skills and qualities that you need to acquire to achieve your goals?

I am going to leave you to ponder that until next week.

Make sure you check out the community page http://www.marykay.com.au for all the new and exciting announcements from seminar … they will blow you away.

Love and Belief

Well it isn’t Monday…

…but I just wanted to say goodbye before I went on holidays!

As I lay on my deck chair somewhere in the Bahamas I will be thinking of YOU.  Congratulations on a fantastic Mary Kay month I am sure I will have no trouble spending the money!

Lots to tell you but I am rushing to catch a plane so I will catch you up on all the news when I get back on the 20th.
