You asked, she answered.
We took your most pressing
questions about the business
and asked one of our
top dōTERRA leaders for
her advice from her
years of experience.
How do you explain to people why dōTERRA uses
the MLM business model, and how this differs from
a pyramid scheme?
A pyramid scheme is illegal and involves moving money from person
to person without a business or service attached. do-TERRA is a
company that is completely product focused, so by definition, it is not
a pyramid scheme. What some people think of when they use the
term “pyramid scheme” is that there are a few at the top making all
the money, and you have to get in at the beginning. This is untrue as
there is unlimited earning potential for all in do-TERRA, and the top
leaders did not all join in the beginning. What I love about do-TERRA
and the MLM model is you are paid for what you and your team
produce, not where you are in the team.
