With this powerful motivation, Shanda
has worked relentlessly to reach more

means to support my family.” Shanda
focuses on the wins and ensures that
no one in her organization loses. This
has helped her build a team driven to
genuinely care for and serve as many
people as possible.
Part of Shanda’s commitment to helping
each person win is not overloading
herself with too many contacts. “Instead
of making a daunting 100-person list, I
help five people at a time. I like to think
of my network as a fruit tree. Making
a 100-person list and trying to help
them all at once is like trying to pick 100
pieces of fruit all at once. I’d never get
them washed, prepped, and canned
in time. Instead, I pick only five pieces
of fruit at a time. That’s a number I can
easily process and be successful with.”
Over time, working with five people at
a time adds up to a strong, committed
network of essential oil users, sharers,
and builders.

“My most important step to Diamond has been to know my numbers. I’ve
learned I must understand where I’ve been, where I am, and where I’m going.
I can share my thoughts on each timeline, but numbers don’t lie. There’s
something very real, sobering, and exciting when you look at the numbers.”

“One of the numbers I key in on each month is PV per person. If my PV per
person is high, I know we’re doing a good job helping others. If it’s low, we need
to skill up. Understanding and adjusting this number has changed how I talk
to people, how my business runs, and how my team operates. It shows us how
much someone has fallen in love with dōTERRA.”

“When I meet someone who I feel is ready for natural solutions, I introduce them
to the oils, work with them, help them, and if they are ready, I help them get an
account and learn to use their oils. If they aren’t ready, I put them in my follow-
up system and check on them until they’re ready. This approach allows me to go
as fast or as slow as my life will allow and creates consistency in my business.”
Along the way, Shanda has met with
various difficulties and challenges. She
has found the key is to choose success
no matter the circumstances. She
shares, “The only thing standing in the
way of success is ourselves. We can
make any excuse to deter success. At
the end of the day, they’re just excuses.”
Shanda didn’t have a mentor until she
hit Gold, she didn’t attend an essential
oils class until she hit Diamond, and
she didn’t meet a Diamond leader until
she was Diamond herself. Regardless
of these obstacles, Shanda chose to
push herself to succeed. “My challenge
to myself is to thrive regardless of
circumstance or adversity, and I chal
lenge my fellow Wellness Advocates to
do the same.” With this challenge to
herself, Shanda is dedicated to pushing
herself to succeed and to helping as
many people as possible.
