Find Your Style
Sondra Verva has discovered that there are many different ways to build a successful doTERRA business. She says, “One person’s style may work for them, but it may not always work for you.” Sometimes her style doesn’t work for her leaders, so she tells them to learn from other people who have been successful as well.
She has seen that doTERRA promotes crossline camaraderie, which allows every Wellness Advocates to learn from everyone else. “Many leaders want to help others, no matter who they are or whose team they are on. I just love that there is so much that has been shared on how to be an effective leader. Everyone is willing to allow you to come and learn.” She helps her team by letting them know where to find the resources that are available to them.
Sondra worked with another network marketing company for many years before she was introduced to doTERRA by Diane Shephard. Diane had been her upline in the other network marketing company and knew what her perspective would be. “She was the right person to contact me about doTERRA. I probably wouldn’t have listened to anyone else. I wasn’t looking for natural products, but she knew how to relate to me.”
Her interest was piqued by the opportunity of the business, and then, as she used the oils, she saw what a difference they made in her life. After that, she put her all into sharing them with everyone. “This is something that is so essential to every single person’s life. They will use it for the rest of their lives. I feel like I can make a significant difference. I can see changes in people’s lives.”
In her efforts to reach Diamond, she quickly saw the value of participating in and preparing for Diamond Club. She tells her leaders to prepare by setting a goal to hit Premier in June and by getting four or five people in areas at least 75 miles away participating in doTERRA to have people to visit when Diamond Club comes around. “Know what you need to have, plan for that, and put those things in place. start looking at your smaller goals before your big goal of doing Diamond Club.” She knows Diamond Club is an amazing opportunity that made a difference in her business.
Different Ways To Share
usE socIAl mEdIA:
“Everyone complains on Facebook. I comment on these posts, tell them I have an essential oil they could use, offer a sample, and leave a link to my business page. That way, everyone else who leaves a comment on the post will see it. I’ve gotten a lot of business that way, just by putting the information out there.”
lIsTEN To pEoplE:
“Keep your ears open in every situation you’re in, whether it be a restaurant, a grocery store, or at lunch. It could be with people you know or people you don’t, who have an issue they are talking about. Be willing to offer a free sample to somebody. Don’t throw up doTERRA on them, but gently let them know you have something that might work.”
oFFER FREE oIls:
“I do a drawing for free oils every month, and I always carry drawing slips with me. I tell people that if they give me their information, I’ll enter them in the drawing. People love free stuff and that way you’ve got their information. Never give out a sample without getting their information.”
usE ThE oIls IN puBlIc:
“Use them in front of other people. Put it down in front of them. Leave it on the table. They’re going to want to know what you’re doing. They’ll say, ‘What is that? It smells good.’ I think it’s awesome when you have the opportunity to pique someone’s interest. Someone’s going to wonder what that smell is.”
loAN A BAg oF pRoducTs:
“I love dropping off a family physician kit, a diffuser, a Modern Essentials book, and a Living magazine in a doTERRA bag to somebody I know in my area. I give them the oils they need and wanted, but now they also have all this other stuff they’re going to look at. They’ll have an experience with the oils.”
