Corporate Events
Hear from several dōTERRA Diamonds and Blue Diamonds
about what corporate events have done for their teams.
How do you encourage your team to
attend corporate events?
“I always use recognition as the means to get my team to
corporate events. For every Silver on my team, I reward them
with a ticket to Leadership Retreat. When they hit Gold, I give
them a ticket to the gala, and when they hit Platinum, a ticket
to convention. I over-emphasize the need for everyone to
attend these events.” –Carol Ann Guest, Diamond
“I offer free tickets as incentives for growth where I need
it. Sometimes I give them to leaders to use as they see fit. I
have given tickets at half price or free to needy people who
show potential. I have paid for hotel rooms or offered them at
half price. I have offered to buy meals for my team, or had a
dinner during the event to gather for recognition.”
–Kathy Pace, Blue Diamond
“You need to help create the desire by explaining the benefits
and what they can expect from the event. We want to know
what’s in it for us. It seems a bit selfish, but that’s how we
are. Why would I go to an event that I thought would offer
me nothing but wasted time? We focus on helping them
understand how great it will be and what they’re going to miss
out on if they don’t attend.” –Rob Wilson, Diamond

dōTERRA ESSENTIAL LEADERSHIP I SUMMER 2014
“The truth is, I am very selective about what events I promote
to my team. I respect them and their time, and they have
come to trust me because of it. When a corporate event
comes up and I talk it up big time in my Facebook group, my
team knows that it is something worth their time.”
–Farrah Collver, Diamond
“More than anything, we inspire an understanding that
these events are a powerful and valuable investment in your
business.” –Arin Ingraham, Diamond
Why are corporate events important?
“There is nothing quite like the joy and energy you feel sitting
in a sold-out crowd of happy, thrilled Wellness Advocates.”
–Joan Coon, Diamond
“These events are crucial! I think that these events show the
passion, integrity, and heart of dōTERRA. If you have someone
on the fence, these are the events to get them to. We need
and want people to see how our corporate executives are
not about anything more than serving their company and
providing natural solutions. The compassion they have for
each one of us shines through. They give us the ability to see
that we are a part of something bigger.”
–Jessica Iddings, Diamond
