“This is a viral,
strong business, held
together with passion
and excitement for
these little bottles of
brilliance.”
ne of Jessie Reimer’s followers on
social media offered to send her
some dōTERRA samples, telling her that
she would love them. Jessie didn’t know
much about essential oils, but she
agreed to “give them a go.” She says,
“My first impression was they were so
much more than smelly stuff.” She tried
them on her children and found them
to be very effective, and before long she
was using them daily. “I knew that people
everywhere needed this in their lives
and that I could provide that and share
the message.”
pack for classes. He is an incredible help
and support. He always believes in and
encourages me.”
Jessie was quickly fully onboard with the
business. She says, “I knew I could set
myself up for abundance and help others
achieve it as well. I jumped at the chance.”
Her partner, Dan, was equally onboard
from the beginning. “He has taken on
the role of stay-at-home dad absolutely
brilliantly, supports me when I have tough
moments and meltdowns, and does so
much cooking, cleaning, taking care of the
kids, shopping, driving, and helping me
She is driven to help change the lives of
those around her, especially her team.
Jessie says her team members have
become her best friends. “It’s not all
about oils and business when I talk to
them, but actually about connecting
and having an incredibly close relationship
and bond with them. I always know
what’s going on with them personally so
I know how to support them as both a
friend and a leader.”
Jessie knows it’s important to help
her team members become leaders
themselves, so she tries to help them
develop the tools they need to be
independent. “When they come to me
with problems, I ask them what they
think the resolution is, and often they
know themselves. I like to listen and learn
from them as much as I teach them. I’m
open to their suggestions, I tell them the
qualities I see in them, and I’m excited for
them and celebrate with them when they
achieve their goals. I also offer my hand to
help them pick themselves up and keep
going when they miss.”
She had the goal to reach Diamond to be
able to solely and comfortably financially
support her family as quickly as possible.
She gets emotional just thinking about
how different their lives are now. She
says, “We can actually afford rent and
food at the same time. We just bought a
new car instead of driving a beat up old
one that was in constant risk of breaking
down. We are soon to buy our first
house, something we never imagined
possible and certainly not this quickly.
We can actually take family holidays, buy
school supplies, and pay bills without any
financial stress or worry. Not to mention
the personal growth and development,
the friendships we have created, and the
lives that have been changed with these
oils. It is truly amazing.”
HOW TO GET STARTED
Just Share
“Get a Class in
a Box Kit, dive in,
and start sharing
the oils. Don’t feel
like you need to
know everything
there is to know
before you start
sharing.”
Change Lives
“Get out there and
change lives. Then
help the people
you share with
change lives by
helping them run
classes as quickly
as possible while
excitement is high.”
Start Small
“Even if you just
start with two or
three people in
your home, those
three people will
open you up to
others and it
will spread.”
Do the Twos
“Do your two
contacts a day,
two follow-ups
a day, and two
classes or oneon-ones a week
at minimum.”
Create It
“Stay accountable,
create a vision
board, and have
a daily checklist
to keep you on
track. Understand
that if you want
this, it’s up to you
to create it.”
Have a Why
“Understand why
you want to do this
and never give up,
even when it seems
like it’s not getting
anywhere. All of a
sudden, it will start
to snowball.”
“YOU BECOME A LEADER BY BEING A LEADER PEOPLE WANT TO FOLLOW,
LONG BEFORE YOU’RE RECOGNIZED AS A LEADER IN do-TERRA.”
