As US immigrants , Suzana and Marcus have been fortunate enough to share the dōTERRA ® mission with people worldwide . They say this mission is what gets them out of bed every morning .
What ’ s their secret to maintaining such strong passion for what they do ? For them , it ’ s a lifestyle , and their passion has spread like wildfire into the hearts of those they ’ ve met . “ Who doesn ’ t like to travel , to explore new places and cultures ?” Suzana asks . “ We love good food , yoga retreats , surfing trips , and new languages . There ’ s no better tool than dōTERRA to allow you to live a life you love . It ’ s been such a blessing .”
One thing has made their business so successful : balance . “ Find balance in your education , mind , body , soul , family , self-care , discipline , and routine ,” the couple says . Both Suzana and Marcus believe all work and no play isn ’ t the way to build a successful business , but you also need to keep in mind that life can ’ t be all play and no work . With this mentality , they ’ ve coupled their intense passion for life with a carefully structured business plan .
Committed members of their team meet regularly with their upline to review the business plan and strategies . This helps them avoid problems and frustrations , because the members can see predictable , controlled growth for the present and future . They claim these meetings are one of the best ways to overcome inevitable building ups and downs . “ We ’ re clear , transparent , and straightforward with everything we do ,” they say . “ If you ’ re on our team , you know what to expect .”
Even with regular check-ins with their upline , no one is immune to failure . Suzana and Marcus know how easy it is to get caught up in the what-ifs of a business . They know builders are , from the beginning , wondering , “ What if I fail ?” That ’ s why Suzana and Marcus provide their team members with the business plan as soon as they join . “ People like to follow processes . They need a roadmap that helps them get from point A to point B ,” they say . Though a new business builder may stumble and experience failure along the way , he or she has a roadmap to keep going rather than giving up at the first sign of trouble .
To anyone who needs inspiration or renewed determination for building a dōTERRA business , Suzana and Marcus say , “ It ’ s possible ! It ’ s doable . We ’ ve done it , and you can do it too . Simply believe in yourself , look for the help you need , find your mentor , invest in your selfdevelopment , change your mindset , and get to work .”
