Consultants You Can Coax Into Directorship
This is a piece about finding new offspring Mary Kay directors. It focuses on the type of women who are easiest to talk into becoming a director. I’m sorry, but if you have to “talk her into” becoming a director, maybe it isn’t such a good idea. This is just one of the many ways Mary Kay recruiters lie and manipulate women in the pink pyramid scheme.
I hope this time of year finds you happy and warm with lovely times with your family and friends!
As you plan your New Year’s Goals, you may find it interesting to know about three different styles of running a unit.
The first style, the Director mainly does personal selling, has a small unit and rarely gets an offspring. If she does, it will also be a strong personal seller who will also have a small unit.
The second style, the Director concentrates on building unit size, and if she has offsprings this is incidental to building her unit size. Each one, reach one is her mantra. The offsprings she has will not usually be very strong units.
The third style, is a Director who BUILDS people. She talks to each unit member, each new recruit, about them becoming Directors and works with them to build their own teams. She creates offsprings and they are strong. This is where we get NSDs. Many of the NSDs we have never had huge units, but they were steadily grooming people and graduating out Directors right along.
In the long run, I think this 3rd style is the best one to select. Working with people one on one advising and guiding them to the position of Independent Sales Director is fun and rewarding. It is only changing one little thing about the way you do business!
When you have contact with your people, always let them know that you think they would be GREAT as Directors. Also meet with them individually with them and their husbands.
The easiest ones to offspring as Directors will be your I’s and D’s. We have some wonderful S and C Directors too of course, but the I’s and D’s can do it FAST!
When you start working with someone for Director, be sure to select someone who has the capability to get it done it, so that when she does it, she will be the one who will set the pace for the others who will follow in her footsteps from your unit!
You have just what it takes to be a guide to the women in your unit. What we talk about, we bring about. Having offsprings is rewarding and fun! You deserve to have lots of offsprings, and I know you can do it!!
I’m always amused by the fact that Mary Kay encourages the recruiting of everyone, and once they’re in, everyone is told they’d make a great director. And now we know that I’s and D’s are easiest to manipulate into doing it fast.

Interesting that the word “grooming” is used. I’m assuming that MK actually used that word in their script. I googled the definition of grooming:
What does grooming someone mean? (According to Oxford dictionary)
Grooming is when someone builds a relationship, trust and emotional connection with a child or young person so they can manipulate, exploit and abuse them. Children and young people who are groomed can be sexually abused, exploited or trafficked. Anybody can be a groomer, no matter their age, gender or race.
Also, how many of you former directors on Pink Truth were D’s or I’s?
DISC is a simplistic model of the human condition; I wouldn’t put too much stock in it. Speaking for myself, I may bounce from one category to another on a daily–even hourly–basis. So will most people. The guy who invented DISC (who is better known for his comic book character Wonder Woman), thought DISC would predict job performance. It doesn’t.
Look up William Moulton Marston. He was an odd duck.
I looked him up and found that the original meaning of DISC was Dominance, Inducement, Submission and Compliance. Very interesting, and definitely odd.
I hate the DISC system. Despise it. In every place I’ve been in that uses it, people who test as high D’s or I’s get preferential treatment and people who test as high C’s or S’s are pigeonholed into administrative or support roles. It’s demoralizing.
And the intentional use of the word “grooming”? Creepy and gross AF. 🤢🤮
“The third style, is a Director who BUILDS people. She talks to each unit member, each new recruit, about them becoming Directors and works with them to build their own teams.”—
Let me count the ways……the ways to describe Mary Kay as an MLM company i.e., an endless-chain recruiting product-based pyramid scheme.
Yeah, those directors build on foundations of sand. I’ve seen way too many be pushed into DIQ only to fail repeatedly. They never reach their goals, and the SD is way too happy to absorb the team members and production into the parent unit.
Meet with them and their husbands?
How insulting.
“Be sure to select someone who has the capability to get it done” aka someone who has good credit and open credit for last day to push thru and activate those last few people.
That’s how my director was. She only wanted you for director if you could do a big inventory order on credit. She was super big on skin care classes and facials too, but if you wanted to work for car or directorship, you had to do the large orders up front. She did not think I would be able to take orders then place the order. I actually did just fine that way, but she didn’t
Like it. Lol.
