Prosperity: The Choice Is Yours ©2001 by Dave Cole One day Annette Gantz saw a lady driving a big pink car. That pink car eventually became the beginning of a tremendously satisfying career for this Wheeling, West Virginia resident. After finishing high school, Annette spent eleven months as a missionary in Thailand. The experiences she encountered there led her to come back to the states and get her college degree in nursing. She became a successful nurse and worked hard at her job while her husband finished his schooling. When her husband graduated and got a good job as a computer programmer, along with the addition of Annette's first of four children, she was able to finally quit the nursing job to be a full time mom and homemaker. But in 1996 her husband lost his job and Annette was faced with a tough decision. Either go back to work or find some means of providing an income. Although she had been a successful nurse, the work was very stressful. Going back to work would also mean she would be away from her family and too, she never really had a passion for nursing to begin with. Thinking about going back to work actually gave Annette nightmares, until the day she saw that big pink car. The lady driving that car was a very successful distributor for Mary Kay Cosmetics. The lady driving that big pink car began to show Annette the tremendous benefits that Mary Kay and network marketing offered. Annette's interest was sparked, but still she was very skeptical and cynical about being a network marketer. And, Annette was afraid ... afraid of having people run the other way. Plus too, Annette had always been a quitter. She just didn't think she had what it took to do this with any degree of success. Finally her husband said to her, "Annette, why don't you try this, what do you have to lose?" Annette found real encouragement in her husband's support, in her sponsor's support, and in the company. After only a short year and a half, Annette Gantz had earned her first car by being a distributor for Mary Kay. This time, with a big grin on his face, her husband asked, "Annette, when are you going to quit?" But Annette had finally found out she really wasn't a quitter, she only had been seeking her real life's work. Besides the money, she was attracted to Mary Kay because of their high standards and Mary Kay's principles of putting your faith first, family second, and career third. She also loves the flexibility to have the time to home school her children and spend time with her husband, plus she is actively involved in her church. As successful in network marketing as Annette is, still those old nagging thoughts of being a quitter creep back now and then. When she gets discouraged, Annette finds great comfort in listening to motivational tapes and reading motivational stories. She also finds great comfort in her faith and knows that what she is doing is God's will for her to be out there helping other women feel and look better and also helping them attain their own desires in life. Annette says there are a few things she's learned in the past six years about being a successful network marketer. "Treat people with respect, believe in people, and believe in your product. If it's worthwhile, it's not always easy, but have persistence and patience." Mary Kay Ash, the founder of Mary Kay Cosmetics, taught her success is made up of three things: Have a plan of action Be persistent Work hard to build your business. Mary Kay Cosmetics has been in business for over thirty years. For the past eight years they are the best selling brand of skin care and color cosmetics on the market. If you would like to learn more about these great products and how they can benefit you, or are interested in a professional career with Mary Kay, Annette would be pleased to be of assistance.
