Overwhelmed much? Don't worry, I was too. Let me make it simple for you:
1a. First things first. Education. I suggest that you begin by either attending one of my free Essential Oils 101 classes (ask me when the next one is scheduled), or listening to this free audio lecture by Sarah Harnisch here. Sarah Harnish is a Young Living Diamond, and was able to retire from her full time job just one year after buying her premium starter kit and beginning her business. In her audio lecture she talks about the Young Living difference. Had enough and ready to order some products? Great! Skip to #3.
1b. Want more? Sarah Harnisch has another useful audio lecture about living a toxin-free lifestyle and she explains about Essential Rewards. Listen to it for free here.
2. Get informed about these exciting Young Living programs:
-Essential Rewards (reward program to earn free products)
-YL Go (annual fee free shipping program)
Also, check out the Essential Rewards FAQ sheet. Note: only members are eligible to enroll in the Essential Rewards program. See #4 below to find out what it means to become a Young Living member. Hint, you don't have to sell anything. See #5 below for information about the benefits of Essential Rewards, in my own words.
3. Ready to get some Young Living products, but not sure what you want or where to start? Take a deep breath and look inside yourself, then look around around your home. What do you want to get out of Young Living?
Looking for a toxin-free home?
Maybe you'd like to clean out your cabinets and get rid of the toxic, chemical-laden cleaning products lurking inside. We all have cupboards full of cleaners; there are separate cleaners to wipe down our kitchen counters, clean our floors, scrub our showers, tubs, and bathroom sinks. If you're looking for a better, more natural way, try adding Thieves cleaning products into your life. What is Thieves? Here are all the Thieves products. Thieves Household Cleaner, Thieves Laundry Soap, toothpaste, essential oil, and more. Want them all? To get the best bang for your buck, become a member and order the Thieves Starter Kit, item #5466. See #4 below for more information about what it means to become a member. See #5 below for information about the benefits of Essential Rewards, in my words.
Looking for a toxin-free body?
Looking to clear the toxins out of your body? NingXia Red is a powerful antioxidant drink that you need to have in your life! What is NingXia Red? Here are all the NingXia Red products available. To get the best bang for your buck, become a member and order the NingXia Red Starter Kit, item #5467. See #4 below for more information about what it means to become a member. See #5 below for information about the benefits of Essential Rewards, in my words.
Want to add in some essential oils?
Looking to diffuse essential oils in your home and get rid of the stank? Want to make your own essential oil roll-on bottles, room deodorizing sprays, linen sprays, insect repellent, sunscreen, etc? Immune Booster, Headache Buster, Refreshing Rest . . . ad infinitum. The best way to begin is with a Premium Starter Kit. There are about 300 oils on the earth, but you only need about 10 or 20 to build a good kit, and the Premium Starter kit comes with 11 essential oils. It also comes with a diffuser, samples of Thieves and NingXia red, and more. To get the best bang for your buck, become a member and order the Premium Starter Kit. You can choose from a few different diffuser models, including the Desert Mist diffuser, so I will not include the item numbers here. Check out this comparison chart, or take a quiz here to find your perfect fit. See #4 below for more information about what it means to become a member. See #5 below for information about the benefits of Essential Rewards, in my words.
4. Is this you? "Woah, woah, woah. I have to become a member? What does that mean?! I don't want to sell anything!!" It's okay! Keep calm and read on!
For those of you wondering what it means to "Become a member," I'm guessing that you're thinking, "I don't want to be a member because I'm not interested in selling Young Living products!"? Hold on! Let me explain: becoming a wholesale member does not mean you are required to sell anything, nor does it mean that you are signing up for the business opportunity!
Simply stated: becoming a wholesale member is a similar concept to a Sam's Club or Costco membership. As a Sam's Club or Costco member, you pay an annual fee in order to shop in that store. Except in this case, the "annual fee" is not really a fee at all. You just need to buy a starter kit (in a range of prices starting at $25, depending on what you choose). Then, you need to spend $50 in a calendar year to maintain your status as a wholesale member. Check out the details on Young Living's website to learn about the benefits of becoming a wholesale member. My favorite is the 24% discount on products!
If you are interested in the business opportunity, becoming a member is all you need to do. Please let me know if you're even slightly interested, or possibly interested for in the future but perhaps this isn't the right timing for you, because I can help you navigate through the overwhelming plethora of resources out there (e.g., their compensation plan). If you have the barest glimmer of interest in the business opportunity, please do me a favor and at least check out their Income Disclosure.
5. So. Where are we at now? Let me guess: you've decided on your kit, but you're not sure about the Essential Rewards? First of all: it's optional! Don't want to do it? Don't! But, if you're interested in earning free products, Essential Rewards is the way to go. It's easy! Sign up for Essential Rewards when you purchase your starter kit, and choose your favorite products to be shipped to you automatically each month. You can change your Essential Rewards order as many times as you want before your processing day, and you can also change the day that it gets processed. You can put anything on your Essential Rewards order, not just essential oils. Thieves, products for children, products for animals, weight loss, massage oils, personal care, skin care, soaps, lotions, makeup . . . you name it, we've got it. You'll earn 10% back on what you buy, including your starter kit if you sign up for Essential Rewards program when you purchase your kit, which you can redeem for free products. Save up your rewards (for a maximum of a year, be sure to check the FAQ sheet) or spend them each month, the choice is yours. When you participate in Essential Rewards for 4 consecutive months, you'll start earning 20% back on your order, and 25% after 25 months. You also will earn special loyalty products. If you do decide to sign up for Essential Rewards, be sure to look at the details about the YL Go free shipping program.
Please, let me know if you still have questions! I'm happy to help. I'm here for you.
