For those of you who haven’t heard yet, we have expanded our MK unit into Brazil. Dedra was fortunate to make the acquaintance of Vanessa Cavalcante, a young woman from Northern Brazil who was studying at a college in Oklahoma.

After a few meetings and parties Vanessa was excited about the opportunity, and told Dedra of her many contacts in her home town. A plan was quickly hatched to visit her in her home of Natal, Brazil and get her business rolling in a grand fashion.

Dedra’s trip was a success. Vanessa did 17 makeovers, sold R$1800 (about $1000) the week she was there. There are no recruits, yet. But, we do have 6 ladies who might be interested in a Mary Kay Business. Vanessa’s dad is very supportive of owning her own business and has asked to help with administrative duties. Vanessa, her parents and Dedra sat down and discussed the career path for her to become a director! They had time to get their nails done, play at the beach, and go to church! They even shopped the mall and Praia de Artista (Artist’s Beach). They got 5 names and phone numbers during those “non-working” excursions. Vanessa is already a smart business woman, and Dedra had a blast!

Vanessa’s family; Alex, Andrea, Mattheus, were so delightful and patient. They paid for every meal and even bought her coffee when they went out.

Thank you for all the prayers. Dedra is excited to go back.

This week, work with abandon. That is what this video inspires Dedra to do. If she learned one thing in Brazil, it was that we are all the same. We have the same fears and we all hope for the same successes. Everyday love everyone you meet. For this week, have fun in your work.
