Etimología: del latín que significa "Regalo de la Tierra."
The WA relationship is the most valuable relationship at dōTERRA. The Company takes great pleasure in teaming up with WAs to present and offer our life-changing products and opportunity.
A. Signing Up as a WA. To become a dōTERRA WA, each applicant must:
1. Pay a non-refundable S$45.00 application fee;
2. Submit a properly completed Wellness Advocate Agreement (WAA) to the Company within 30 days from the date of the WAA;
3. Be of legal age in his or her state of residence and be competent to enter into the WAA;
4. Have and provide a Singapore NRIC number or employment pass which does not prohibit him / her from becoming a WA.
B. Acceptance or Rejection of WAA. dōTERRA reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to approve or decline submitted WAAs.
C. Inaccurate Applications. An incomplete, incorrect, or fraudulent WAA will be deemed invalid.
D. Binding Effect of One Member of a Distributorship. Where there are one or more Persons who will be a part of a Distributorship as co-applicants, the action, consent or acceptance by one binds the entire Distributorship.
E. Duty to Maintain Accurate WAA Information. To help ensure that the Company has the most current information, WAs must advise the Company of changes to the submitted WAA and attachments. Proposed changes to personal information should be submitted on a new WAA or Business Application Addendum with the word “Amended” written across the top. All Parties to the Distributorship should sign this new WAA or Business Application Addendum before submitting it to the Company.
F. Business Application Addendum. A Corporation may become a dōTERRA WA by submitting, with the Business Application Addendum, true and correct copies of the incorporation, registration or formation documents, together with any other related documents the Company will request. The authorized director, officer, partner, owner, agent or trustee who is legally competent to bind the Corporation will sign the WAA. The signup of a Corporation cannot be done online.
G. Term of Contract and Contract Renewal. The term of the Contract is one year from the date the WAA is submitted to dōTERRA. Unless the WA notifies the Company of its intent not to renew, or unless the Contract is terminated by the Company, the Contract is automatically renewed each year on the anniversary date of acceptance of the WAA. The WA agrees to pay an annual renewal fee on or before the anniversary date of acceptance of the WAA. The WA agrees and authorizes the Company to automatically charge the credit card on file with the Company in the amount of S$33.00 each year on the anniversary date to renew the Contract with the Company. The Company may elect to add the annual renewal fee to the next WA product order. The annual renewal fee helps the Company provide the WA with the necessary support materials and information on products and services, Company programs, policies and procedures, and related matters. The annual renewal fee also covers the costs of all direct mailings from the Company.
H. Simultaneous Interests in Distributorships Prohibited. An WA may not have a simultaneous beneficial interest or be a co-applicant in more than one Distributorship. A beneficial interest includes, but is not limited to, any ownership interest; any rights to present or future benefits, financial or otherwise; rights to purchase at wholesale prices; recognition; or other tangible or intangible benefits associated with a Distributorship. Married spouses must be part of the same Distributorship, and cannot have more than one Distributorship between them. A shareholder, partner or owner of a Corporation cannot have a Distributorship in the name of a Corporation and a separate Distributorship in his or her own name individually, or another Corporation to which he or she is a shareholder, partner or owner of. An exception to this rule is the Presidential Diamond Multiplier Account. See Section 10.3 of this Policy Manual.
I. Independent Contractor Relationship Between WA and the Company. An WA is an independent contractor and not an employee, agent, partner, legal representative or franchisee of dōTERRA. An WA is not authorized to and will not negotiate, conclude and/or enter into any contract or agreement to bind dōTERRA or incur any debt, expense or obligation, or open any checking account on behalf of, for, or in the name of dōTERRA. WAs control the manner and means by which they operate their dōTERRA businesses, subject to compliance with the Contract. WAs are solely responsible for paying all expenses they incur, including but not limited to travel, food, lodging, secretarial, office, long distance telephone and other expenses. WAs are not treated as employees of the Company for all tax purposes (including but not limited to legal or tax purposes), and acknowledge and agree that the Company is not responsible for any withholding or deduction and shall not withhold or deduct Taxes of any kind from any compensation the WA receives from dōTERRA, including Bonuses, unless such withholding or deduction becomes legally required.
J. Company Recognition. The Company may choose to recognize WAs at selected events and in various publications including conventions and magazines. Recognition will be based upon criteria and standards adopted and changed, from time to time, by the Company. The Company will typically recognize WAs at the highest Rank they achieved for at least three of the most recent twelve months, except for first time Rank achievement.
