Coaching Checklist

Mary Kay used to always say that a party worth booking is worth coaching. In some cases postponements and cancellations can't be avoided and it truly goes with the territory; but, there are steps you can take to ensure that a party will hold. Coaching is the answer!!! Coaching creates a partnering relationship between you and your hostess to be clear in what is expected of each person for a successful party.

The success of each appointment all comes back to YOU!!!
