Believing dōTERRA

When Amber Adams first encountered dōTERRA essential oils , she immediately loved them and found herself naturally sharing them with others . Her husband , however , was a bit reluctant to jump into the business side of dōTERRA . John says , “ I didn ’ t want Amber to commit to something that wouldn ’ t work , and I was worried about what you have to pay to do it . But when I researched it , I found the opposite . I was excited about the compensation possibilities , and I was comfortable with the way the business is run .” From there , John and Amber decided to invest enough time and resources to commit to the dōTERRA business for six months . They made the decision that if they were going to do it , they would be “ all in ,” and relatively soon after they started , they reached Diamond .

The journey to Diamond has come with many changes for John and Amber . John was able to walk away from his job to be home and work on the dōTERRA business full time with Amber . This was an important step for their family and was one of their original Whys . Amber says , “ I wanted to get my husband home from a dangerous job that he didn ’ t love and didn ’ t feel rewarded by . Now our family can be together more , and especially since we had our third child , it has been life changing to have him home to help . I ’ m so happy he ’ s not missing so many of this baby ’ s ‘ firsts .’”
With her caring nature , Amber gravitated toward sharing and teaching others about essential oils from the beginning . John , on the other hand , was more interested in the back office . In Amber ’ s words , “ We split up the business to fit our strengths . My passion is to help people , while he ’ s more interested in placement and structure . Now John can help others duplicate how we ’ ve made the business work , and he also encourages other partners on our team to get involved .” They attribute much of their business success to using their strengths , as well as to the support they have received from their family , their upline , and their downline .
They both count their blessings every day for not only the financial freedom dōTERRA has provided , but also the amazing people they ’ ve had come into their lives in their short time working in this business . They would love nothing better than to help their team members reach the same financial freedom they are now enjoying .
John and Amber know that like any venture , building a dōTERRA business comes with challenges . When you hit a roadblock , Amber suggests , “ Look at your beliefs . You need to believe in yourself , believe in the product , and believe in the opportunity . Share the business with as much passion as you share the oils .” With their beliefs in line , there is no goal John and Amber can ’ t reach . “ We can ’ t imagine doing anything else . It ’ s our passion and purpose , and what a blessing to be able to do something you love every day , alongside your best friends !”

SET UP FOR SUCCESS

Create an Oil Community “ It isn ’ t about how many people you can enroll — it ’ s about sharing with others when they need you . We use a Facebook group that helps people understand how to incorporate oils in their everyday lives . This is a relationship business , so it ’ s about building long-term relationships and helping others live dōTERRA .” – Amber
Focus on These Three Pillars “ We ’ ve seen our most successful builders excel in these three areas : 1 . Enroll consistently 2 . Have at least 55 percent of those you enroll be LRP participants 3 . Find builders If one of your pillars is weak , then you need to recognize it and look deeply at yourself to figure out why . Then help others to duplicate this process .” – John
