Joan Coon Diamond
You asked , she answered . We took your most pressing questions about the business and asked one of our top dōTERRA leaders for her advice from her years of experience .
When things come up like school , holidays , summer , etc ., how do you keep your team moving forward ?
I keep the momentum going by constant communication with my teams . I have a dōTERRA Facebook business page and a product page that I post on daily to keep everyone informed . I have Zoom chat trainings and an ongoing weekly Natural Lifestyle class where leaders teach and bring people to all year round .
How do I avoid being pushy when sharing the oils ?
I consider my dōTERRA sharing a gift . I make up small organza bags with A to Z guides , my business card , and samples inside . I keep them with me to pass out to people , and then follow up with them with a specific health issue that they are having . Everyone loves a gift and a new friend .
It ’ s tough to motivate people to join your team when you have to be realistic in telling them that it will take a while to move up and start earning enough to quit a job or cut back on hours . Any advice ?
I believe that each person is unique in their situation and talents ; some take their time , while others take off like superstars . Personal development and business training take time , as does making money in dōTERRA . My advice to everyone is to do the work , be patient , and be grateful . I cheer people on with every success and recognize them with incentives and gifts .
