Girlfriend Get-Away

I am really excited about the number of girls working for the girlfriend get-away in February I am seeing great plans working towards the goal of earning a free trip.  I have a brochure here for you to track your progress you can also print one off from the community page.

Speaking of the community page; have you been on there lately? Go and have a look at all the downloadable educational and support information…you will be blown away!

Welcome Back To A Shining Star In Our Unit Melanie Cann

Melanie has always been a superstar but has taken on a slower pace the past year or so while getting married, having a baby and moving in to her new home. This week Melanie resumed her Mary Kay business and held a class on Friday night with sales of almost $600 and one booking…well done Mel, so good to have you back.

Another Superstar In The Davis Dream Team

Leslee McLeod had a lovely customer service appointment last week with one of her good clients who ordered almost $700 of products! I bet you would love to have such lovely and loyal customers.

The key to Leslee’s success is that she is so committed to having every one of her clients raving fans of our skin care range they just want to have it all!

Leslee and her husband Trevor and new addition of Brill (the most adorable German shepherd pup) are just about to relocate to the South Coast to their new home.  We wish you the best for your upcoming move!

It Is My Pleasure This Week To Introduce You To Melissa Britton

Melissa, our guest this week, has prepared some tips on running a tips on running a Mary Kay business business.  Thank you Melissa for you time effort and energy in doing the video for us this week I know you are implementing what you are sharing with us today…you are going to have an awesome year!

Have a sensational week

Love and belief

I hope you have had a sensational week and that you have kicked some goals. I know some of you have because I have had some incredible phone calls this week! Last week we started talking about you creating your vision board. It was my intention that we would jump right in to doing that this week. I feel that we need to actually think about it before we run off and start with the scissors and paste.

A lot of us think more carefully about what we want to create for dinner than about what we want to create for our lives (To create a great meal you need to have all the right ingredients). The same goes for creating your life but only very few take the time to make sure they have the right ingredients to create an awesome life…. Sad but true!

OK can I ask you a couple of questions?

Q1. After Watching Last Week’s Video Did You?

Did you prepare for your vision board, or did you have good intentions?

The answer will be 20% of those who watched the video went out and got prepared to do their vision board. And then the other 80% of you had good intentions.

Do you know about the 80/20 rule? It has been proven over and over again that 20% of people get 80% of the results.

Q2. What Percentage Do You Want To Be In?

You get to choose if you want to be in the 20% or the 80% Let’s look at your Mary Kay business where are you spending 80% of you time?

The answer will be those who are not stepping up and achieving their goals spend the majority of their time doing activities that don’t count towards earning money. There are only three things that you need to focus on IF you want to create magic in your business…yep you know what they are:

• BOOKING
• TEAM-BUILDING
• SELLING

All of us have different goals and dreams and Mary Kay can fulfill them both personally and professionally.

We need to just look at those 168 hours we are all given every week and think about if we are using them to Create the Life of our Dreams?

So having said all of that I want you to collect the pictures, words and feelings to create your vision board so you can move powerfully towards creating the life of your dreams!

Just For Fun…..Ellen

You will often hear me speak about vibration and attracting people and situations in to my life, this is my truth and works very well for me. Today I have a video of the secret, the movie that took the world by storm….I agree with the secret but the key thing to remember is nothing works with- out action.

Another Amazing Month For The Davis Dream Team

I am looking forward to seeing you next Monday as we prepare to put our dreams on to Canvas! Have a sensational week and dream BIG.

Love Hugs and Belief

I hope you have had a fantastic week!

March was just AMAZING and if you have not seen the results you had better visit www.mkc.net.au.

I am so proud of the new website it is amazing. It is a one stop shop for consultants who want to move forward in their business. The site will deliver everything you need to succeed it covers recognition, motivation and education. It is a wonderful resource to use when team building and can be accessed 24 hours a day. Why don’t you check it out www.mkc.net.au.

This week I am very excited to introduce you to a couple of amazing women in the Davis Dream Team.

We shot this video last Tuesday night after our inner circle coaching session. Mel and Jayde share their story and journey over the past four weeks. I am sure you will enjoy getting to know them a little better.

I f you would like to take part in our next inner circle coaching program staring in May please let me know.

The next inner circle program will be delivered in webinar format so all you need is your computer! I am so excited that together we can move forward no matter what your goals are.

Be A Part Of Our New “Five Minutes With” Feature

We all love hearing about each other’s story so as a regular feature here on Mondays with Julie you can share your story. If you would like to participate and share please click here to down load your questionnaire.

This week I would like to share a quick video that I made about coaching. One of the most important skills you need to learn in your business is how to coach. We leave so much money on the table by not coaching our hostesses. This is a vital step for you as a consultant and you will reap the rewards as you watch your sales and booking soar.

Next week I will show you the benefits of using the skin care profile and building rapport. For more coaching ideas visit www.mkc.net.au and go to the training centre.

From My Heart

As you can see we have had a pretty amazing month and we have achieved great results but the real test now is to sustain and build upon that success. It is easy to become complacent but now is the time to build on our success and move forward. We have an amazing product and an amazing opportunity to share with other women. There are so many women out there who have so little to look forward to.

Apart from the financial benefit you receive in Mary Kay the personal development is priceless. Who can you think of that would benefit from an opportunity that will be life changing? I know I never would have had the opportunity and success in my life if it had not been for that day in October 1982 when I signed my agreement form.

From that day forward my life became enriched and the blessings I have experienced can’t be counted. This week I want you to find one person to offer the Mary Kay opportunity to, it does not matter if she says yes or no. Just experience the feelings of helping other women on the path to personal and financial fulfillment.

Love and Blessings to you

Hello and welcome to this week’s MWJ. My life has been somewhat of a whirl wind in the past weeks. Today I am in Sydney last week I was in Melbourne and Canberra.

My Apologies

Firstly let me apologise for our technical hitches last week, we did make a video in Melbourne but Peter was unable to load it up so it could come out with lasts week’s MWJ. Life sometimes throws you challenges! I spent last Thursday with the lovely Canberra girls, we had a sensational day. Thank you to Kim who very kindly offered the use of her business premise “The Elite Model Academy” very much appreciated Kim, thank you. Getting together on a regular basis has enormous benefits therefore the Canberra girls decided that they would meet every second Wednesday for training and inspiration. For more details check out www.mkc.net.au

Today Is The End Of The Month

The month comes to a close today, and what a month it has been. Records have been broken with the company selling 6 month’s supply of product in two weeks. Thank you for your patience! Orders took a day or two longer and some lines were unavailable short term. Congratulations to those consultants who took advantage of the 60% order discount.

• Tamara Dowd
• Pia Waldron
• Jody Cherry
• Lyn Price
• Bev Liddicoat
• Jayde Mainwaring; and
• Melanie Cann

Congratulations and well done.

A Funny Thing This Morning…

Good morning, today I am coming to you from Melbourne. It has been an amazing weekend here and a great learning opportunity for me. I feel so blessed to have such an amazing life. I am so truly grateful for the blessings that I have in my life, those blessings include you!

Tomorrow I jump on a plane and get to visit all my lovely unit members in Canberra. I am so looking forward to seeing you. It has been way to long and I really miss you all.

A funny thing this morning I had a call from Mary Kay head office, during my conversation with Peter Nankervis we got chatting about the opportunity for MK in Canberra. He is of the same opinion as me that if we could just find that right person to step up it would be an incredible opportunity for both them and MK. I believe with all my heart that the opportunity in Canberra is nothing short of amazing. I really want to work with a couple consultants in Canberra who would like to have GREAT BUSINESS ….who knows maybe it’s you? Do you know of any women who are looking for a great business opportunity, if so let’s talk.

The Davis Unit Is Achieving Outstanding Results

Well, once again The Davis Unit is achieving outstanding results. We are on our way to another fabulous month. We are achieving great results with the size we have, like anything else in life if you are not moving forward you are going backwards. My focus and goal is to grow our unit and increase the number of consultants. Each month I have set a target of 10% growth so this month we need to grow by two new team members.

Mary Kay Career Opportunity

If you have any one who you feel would make a good consultant or needs to earn extra money please let me know and I can chat to you about it. Here is a short clip that I think you might enjoy.

Do You Have Those Days When You Just Feel Like Giving Up?

I know I do, sometimes daily. Meet my friend Nick Vujicic he is one of the most incredible people I have ever met. I met Nick, a few years ago at Crossroads – ministry for the disabled through my church. He is funny, intelligent and has passion and purpose. He sends us a very clear message; never give-up, always have hope and always live your dream.

Are You Going To Finish Strong?

Congratulations…

…to those girls who took advantage of the 60% commission promotion offered by the company this month.

• Tamara Dowd (Gold Coast)
• Jody Cherry (Taree)
• Beverley Liddicoat (Canberra)
• Pia Waldron (Canberra)
• Jayde Mainwaring (Gold Coast)
• Melanie Cann (Townsville); and
• Lynn Price (Canberra)

We still have a few days of the month remaining so be your best and finish strong

On track for re start smart start program

• Jayde Mainwaring
• Leslee McLeod
• Bev Elias
• Janet Bladen
• Julie Davis

It is an amazing promotion and you will just love the make-up artist’s tool kit! I hope you have an amazing week. Oh and don’t forget to subscribe you customers to e-beauti news! go to the community page for all the details or check this month’s Applause magazine for full details.

Julie’s Challenge for this week

Make 5 customer calls….just ring and say hi and check how they are going with their MK products. Share with them the new primer and the new colour collection. In fact why not make a time for a check up appointment. A key distinction you need to remember is that you are a consultant not an order taker. Offer your clients exceptional service and you will have more business than you will ever know what to do with, they will happily refer their friends to you.

Have a sensational week and finish strong

Love and Hugs

Wow! What An Action Packed Week

I have hit the ground running, and I hope you have too.

The highlight of my week was Friday night when we held a really super successful fashion parade. I work closely with a friend of mine Mechelle from Who’s Lucy; I have told you about her previously she owns a fashion store here on the Gold Coast. Three times a year she holds a charity event and fund raiser this helps both the charity as well as her business profile. The parade was a huge success with 150 attending. We had the opportunity to fly the Mary Kay flag and two of our lovely Gold Coast consultants Melissa Britton and Jayde Mainwaring did a fantastic job on models makeup. This opportunity gave them many leads to follow up and help their business grow.

Over the next few weeks I am going to share with you how to create opportunities to grow your business and follow them up.

This Week Something A Little Different!

I thought I would share a couple of videos I found that will firstly let you see a bigger picture and secondly give you some tips on makeup application from a couple of Mary Kay makeup artists. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

I have a very busy week coming up preparing for a week long training program here on the Gold Coast where I will be part of an amazing group of Entrepreneurs…more on that in the coming weeks all I can say is that I AM EXCITED.

A Very Special Hug From All Of Us…

To our Kim Stewart, she has spent 8 weeks out of the last 13 in Mater Children’s Hospital Brisbane, Kim delivered twin girls in December after spending over a month at Ronald McDonald house in Brisbane. One of the girls had CHD congenital Heart Defect and underwent major surgery last week. The news is all good and Kim is now home with her beautiful family. Way to go Kim I see you are already out there flying your Mary Kay flag and promoting your business…well done, you truly are an inspiration to us all. It is a very funny thing about successful people, they often have every reason to not succeed…..but they do it anyway!!!

We Have Some Special Celebrations This Month

Happy Birthday to…

• Tamara Dowd – 11^th
• Abby Davies – 22^nd
• Kathryn Smith – 26^th
• Melanie Cann- 31^st

Well, I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and enjoyed time with those you love. We enjoyed a lovely family Christmas and within a blink on an eye we are at the beginning of a New Year.

For some of you 2009 was a great year and will hold many good memories and for others it may be a year best forgotten.

I love a New Year I always feel refreshed and renewed I get to start with a new diary blank pages ready for the adventures of the coming year!

This year my diary is a little different to most years gone by, this year my diary has already had its first six months planned out in some form or another. Late last year I sat down and thought about what my goals would be this year to arrive at the plan I needed to start “With the end in mind” as Steven covey would say in his famous book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People.

I started with my income goal and worked back what I would need to do to achieve that goal. I broke my goal down into manageable bite size pieces; I then came up with a plan of what I would need to in income producing activities to achieve that goal. I then made a commitment time wise in my  diary ,  I may get off track and very likely I will….but if I don’t have a plan I would have no chance at all to achieving my goals.

Today I would like to share with you a formula that will help you set your goals for the year. It will help you break them down and make sure it is realistic enough for you to achieve you can use this formula for any goals for the purpose of today I am talking about Mary Kay.

The formula is called the C.R.E.A.T.E  formula…so here goes!

When setting goals/outcomes: Follow this very simple plan

Create Your Outcomes

C = Clear and concise – what is it exactly that I want to achieve

R = Realistic – based on my time and skill level is this achievable

E = Ecological- is it in the best interest of those I care about

A = As Now – feel as if you have already achieved it

T = Toward What You Want – is you motivation negative or positive

E = End Step/Evidence Procedure – how will I know when I achieve this goal

It is now (date)—————————-in the future

I am/I have———————————(End Step)

Did you know that your mind does not know the difference between real and imagined. If you believe with all your heart mind and soul that you have already achieved your goal you will create situations and circumstances that will attract success. I would highly recommend you hire out a movie called The Secret that will explain this in more detail. For me this movie was life changing and answered may questions about stuff that showed up in my life.
