Remember when I said my girlfriend was making me money without my knowing about it? That’s what an MLM does: it makes money not just for you but for the people on your team. It makes residual income. At first, I have to admit, the thought of MLMs made me nervous because I had preconceived notions about Multi-Level-Marketing. You know. You’re thinking it, too: is this a pyramid scheme? Are they out to take my money and run? Even though I’d been buying the products and knew they were awesome, even though nobody ever asked me to invest any money in anything except the product, even though I knew people who were in the business making money, I was still sceptical.So, let me tell you what this company is. doTERRA provides a business opportunity with free training and no overhead for people who love to share information and love natural health options. doTERRA is a debt-free company which started with the goal of sharing pure therapeutic grade essential oils and is helping millions of people to improve their health and well-being. It is an international company who gives back to the communities where its essential oils are cultivated by building irrigation systems, schools, and medical centres and making the world a better place. It’s a company that chooses to pay people like me to educate others about essential oils and how to use them because advertising can’t do that. It’s the world’s fastest growing essential oil company who empowers the customers who choose the business opportunity with training, mentoring, and a great compensation plan. Here is an opportunity for mothers to have more than just a job, to work from home, and to set their own hours. It’s an opportunity for like-minded family, friends, and colleagues to work together as a team, achieve financial independence and lead the lives they love while helping those they love at the same time.
