I'll admit it, I didn't know a lot about essential oils before I started using them. I didn't know there were so many different ways and places to purchase them. I didn't realize the fierce loyalty that people have over their liquid drops of happiness.
But I did know one thing...I had a need and someone cared enough about me and our family to share with me about a better way. At that point in our lives, I didn't really care about much else and I feel like that's where a lot of people are...now, I definitely think you should do your research and figure out what works best for you and your family, but the relationship/people factor played a big part in my decision to use doTERRA essential oils. Here are some other reasons (many of which I didn't really know or understand until after I fell head over heels in love with my little bottles of joy)!
1. The oils are amazing. Enough said. To see something work faster and better than modern medicine was a big deal for me. And every single product we've used has yielded amazing results. The oils do what they say they're supposed to do and they do it well.
2. The standards are exceptional. When the leaders of doTERRA set out to create this new company, they knew there was a need for excellence in this industry so instead of complaining about it or saying "oh well, we'll just be good and that's good enough", they created a standard of excellence called CPTG or Certified Pure Therapeutic Grade. This lined up really well with the standards we set in our own house. We have a rule that says "don't complain about something unless you have a suggestion of a way to make it better". The standard doTERRA set means that these oils are tested so thoroughly that I can trust that when I open a bottle of Lemon essential oil, all that's in that bottle is Lemon essential oil and absolutely nothing else. I appreciate the quality of these oils and it shows in how well they work.
3. The leadership of the company. I have had the privilege of attending several training sessions, events, conventions, etc. over the past nine months and I have been so impressed with the focus and leadership of this doTERRA. I sat in a room full of hundreds of people in Bellevue, WA (which is an extremely liberal part of WA) and listened to the President of the company speak about the power of prayer. I listened to the Vice President of Sales tell a room of at least a thousand people about how he's never smoked or had any alcohol or done drugs or anything of that type. Again, that's pretty rare for someone so successful. The emphasis on education and support that this company gives is amazing. I have learned more in the past nine months about cellular chemistry and biology than I think I ever did in college! I have learned so much about how our bodies work and how they were designed and it's amazing. The resources that they give (many times, for free) are very well done and easy to understand and as someone who has no medical education, I appreciate how easy they make it for me to understand and use essential oils in my home.
4. My personal team. I knew the person that enrolled me, now I feel like a part of a big huge oily family or party or something in between. They are constantly checking into make sure I'm doing OK, to encourage me and support me in my business (and to push me when I need a push)! There's no way I could do this alone and the support of my larger upline team and my little oil team under me has been such an encouragement!
A lot of people say they don't like getting involved with MLM companies or they don't like selling or dealing with direct sales...but let me just say this and then I will leave it alone forever (promise)! Even if I didn't make an income off of sharing about essential oils, even if they opportunity to live financially free and happy wasn't a part of this...I would still buy and use these oils. It's all about the product for me and that's why I share about it!
