The Fergus Falls Daily Journal:
Jen Enstad-Petersen’s 9-year-old loved his mother’s newest car the first time he saw it.
Dubbed “the sweetest ride ever,” Enstad-Petersen’s 2009 Saturn Aura isn’t the first car she’s earned in the 14 years she’s spent with Mary Kay, Inc. It’s her sixth.What started as a job to pay her living expenses at Concordia College in Moorhead has turned into Enstad-Petersen’s career. She’s climbed the Mary Kay ranks from beauty consultant to sales director and has driven the vehicles to prove it.
“Women don’t get enough pats on the back,” Enstad-Petersen said from her Fergus Falls office. “It’s really my job to help them feel supported and encouraged.”
Those women are the 121 independent consultants Enstad-Petersen manages nationwide. Some are young adults, others are in their mid-70s. Some hold high school diplomas, others master’s degrees. But they all share at least one key quality.
“I’m really looking for people who are, number one, kind-hearted,” Enstad-Petersen said, “ because if they’ve got a serving spirit, everything else will follow.”
