Feel the Joy
Hiromi Ikeda
Hiromi Ikeda
Hiromi Ikeda had always had a negative image of network marketing companies. But once she was introduced to doTERRA, she saw how the products were able to help her daughter and she wanted to start using them on her family. Then, with a healthier lifestyle, she lost 40 pounds in four months, and people started asking her why. She says, “Every time people asked me questions, I held meetings to give them the answers, and that’s how I started thinking about the business.”
After moving around a lot for her previous job, Hiromi had many contacts in several different cities. She had man aged a restaurant for four years, and she learned that cheering up her coworkers always improved the atmosphere and boosted sales. She says, “Through this experience I learned that team work is very important in a business.”
She first got involved in the business side of doTERRA in order to be independent. She didn’t even tell her husband when she first signed up. But, today he helps with the business and shares the products at his office. Hiromi loves watching her children use, share, and receive benefits from the products as well.
As a leader of her team, Hiromi tries to set a good example. She says, “I will not say anything negative about other people. If there are people who are saying negative things, I respond to them in a positive way.” She also knows that it’s important to encourage her team to attend large corporate events like Convention, so they can really experience what doTERRA is like.
“Make sure your team can feel the joy of enrolling people.”
She also encourages her leaders to make sure that everyone on their team experi ences the joy of enrolling people, and each new enrollment experiences that same joy. If they set goals together for growth and work together as a team to achieve them, they will succeed and be unified. Hiromi knows that her own upline has helped her get to where she is now. She says, “They help me just because they know the positive influence they will have on my life. They don’t care about if it will benefit them or not.”
Hiromi is proud to be a part of a company like doTERRA. She says, “I like how the executives think. doTERRA products save people and give them hope. I want to be able to share doTERRA with everyone so they can all realize the possibilities and experience the high quality of doTERRA essential oils.
Event Tips
- I call or text about 50 people a month to invite them to events.
- I hold about 8 to 10 events per month.
- I listen to others as I teach them.
- I give them the information they need or want instead of telling them what to do.
- I like to show them a DIY project they can do using essential oils.
