REACHING HIGHER TO Inspire
Brittany McDonald had been in the fitness and health industry for many years teaching classes and managing her own fitness business . Because of her passion for wellness , Brittany started looking for natural solutions that could enhance the health of her clients and her family . When her friend , Ange Peters , asked her if she wanted to attend a dōTERRA class , the response was an immediate yes . It only took a waft of Peppermint for her to realize that she was hooked . By the end of the class , she walked out with her very first dōTERRA kit and a brand new business .
The business slowly began to grow as she organically used and shared the oils . Oftentimes , it would even be her friends and clients that would come to her with essential oil questions . When family and friends noticed a difference in her son ’ s health , they wanted to know how , and when Brittany would diffuse Peppermint and Wild Orange during her classes , they wanted to learn what the oils did . Eventually , this increasing interest encouraged Brittany to share more , and she began giving out samples at classes and holding a special essential oils lesson after fitness classes for those who were interested . The more Brittany shared the health benefits with others , the more she saw that she was helping people live healthier and happier .
Brittany made it her priority to routinely hold classes , meet one-on-one , followup , and put people first no matter the rank she was at , which helped her business steadily grow . Not long after she reached Platinum , her upline leader , Rich Higby , had her set a Diamond date ( the date she would be Diamond ). After she set the date for a few months out , she realized that Diamond was closer than she thought , and she gave it all she had . She says , “ Once I set my Diamond date , I told my leaders what my plans were and was very clear as to what my goal was and what I saw in each of them . My team and I went back to the basics . I focused on sustaining my events , upping my classes , and reaching down below my first and second levels to support and develop them as leaders and to aid them with whatever they needed .” These efforts
MAKING A SOLID FOUNDATION
allowed Brittany to hit Diamond a month earlier than expected .
Though achieving Diamond felt good , it was the aftereffects that felt even better . Brittany says , “ There were so many rank advancements on my team and that actually made me more excited than when I hit Diamond .” With each step forward , Brittany is motivated by the ability to help others reach their dreams and to show them that they can live their lives in a way that makes them happiest .
Now that Brittany has hit Diamond , she continues to reach higher so that she can help others experience her same joy . Brittany ’ s husband , Kyle , has also joined the business , and together , they continue to see great growth and experience many blessings throughout their journey . Not only have the oils helped their children in a time of need , but the business has given Brittany and Kyle a little more time and financial freedom to be with their children , and has allowed them to personally grow while helping others to do the same .
HAVE A MENTOR . “ Find somebody that can act as a support system in your upline , and connect with them on a regular weekly or biweekly basis .”
SET LONG-TERM AND SHORT-TERM GOALS . “ Know what you would like to see happen , why you want to achieve it , how you want it to change your life , and be really clear about how it fits into your life and how much time you have and want to commit to it . Then , work with your upline to figure out how you can best use your time .”
BUILD RELATIONSHIPS WITH PEOPLE . “ Get better at forming relationships and putting yourself out there . Be intentional about listening to what people say and caring about them . Share what you are doing naturally .”
FORM DAILY HABITS . “ Pick three things that you can do every day in your dōTERRA business that can keep you moving forward . Even if you have only 15 minutes , you can make sure that you do follow-ups or get on the phone and share the oils with somebody . As long as you are consistent , it will produce incredible results .”
