And on the rear window of her 12th new pink Cadillac is the familiar sticker,"Mary Kay,enriching women's lives,and that's really our official sticker,that's our philosophy of company is to nrich women's lives."
In August,the company reported there are more than 40 percent increase in new Mary Kay sales reps compared to the same month last year.Income is based on commissions or earnings vary,but Clare says a new rep working four-time can expect to earn close to 50,000 in a year.Getting that pink Cadillac she says takes building the sales team.And in the last six months,Clare and her team have signed on 60 new beauty consultants.Mostly,because they've been downsized or let go or their whole companies have folded actually,and we're really seeing women of all ages.
