NEW dōTERRA DIAMONDS

“Just keep doing what you’re doing,
don’t stop, focus on the positive, and
you will definitely get there.”
S
hawna Bielmann went to her first
dōTERRA class just to support a
friend. She’d always signed up for
wholesale memberships from every
direct sales company she came across,
and she did the same with dōTERRA.
Then, her Family Physician Kit arrived
and sat on the shelf for three months.
Eventually, her enroller reached out to
her about another class and Shawna
went hoping to learn how to use the
products she had spent $150 on.
Turns out, she attended a business
class where she met her upline, Brandi
Burdine. Shawna says, “Brandi knew
how to get me to do this as a business.
She took my needs and put them into
action.” Shawna felt like the business
was the last thing she needed, but
Brandi broke it down and made it easy
for her, suggesting she host a class and
let Brandi come teach it. Everything
started from there.
Shawna says that she was never
motivated by rank, but by things like
going on incentive trips, becoming
an AromaTouch trainer, and helping
her team. She says, “I didn’t even do
Diamond Club. I knew I would get to
where I am; I just had to do it at my
own pace.” She is grateful for Brandi’s
intuition that has helped her identify
business builders and kept her proactive
and on her toes.
For Shawna, doing the business has
always been more about having fun.
She says, “dōTERRA is about more
freedom, more time, more family, and
more fun. The moment you turn it into
something stressful, it’s defeating the
purpose.” When one of her leaders is
struggling, she calls them up and invites
them to lunch. Because her builders
are people she has known for a long
time, she doesn’t want a phone call
from her to become something they
dread. “I really try to nurture those
friendships, and then everything else
falls into place. Then they’re more
excited to keep going.”
“AROMATOUCH IS ONE OF THE WAYS dōTERRA HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. IT’S GIVEN
ME A WAY TO SHARE AND SERVE OTHERS AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THEIR DAY.”
She knows that dōTERRA has blessed
her life, and now she can bless others.
She says, “It’s made me more grateful and
more aware. We are now on a mission to
be more natural, healthy, and positive.
I have tools, means, and empowerment.
It has made me more focused on how I
can serve others, and I’m so grateful for all
the people that I’ve met along the way.”
“You don’t have to be
able to do everything
in this business. Find
something you are
passionate about, and
give it 100 percent.”

dōTERRA ESSENTIAL LEADERSHIP I JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2015
EDUCATION: MAKING SURE PEOPLE KNOW
WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR ESSENTIAL OILS
HANDS-ON CLASSES. “I’m really hands-on in my classes. We’re always doing
something—making sugar scrubs, cleaning products, hand sanitizers, etc. I
also love cooking, so I love classes that revolve around incorporating oils into
everyday foods. It shows people how to use the oils every day.”
WELLNESS CONSULTS. “I’m on the phone with people the moment they get
their oils to set up wellness consults. A lot of times a week goes by, people get
their oils, and they forget what to do with them. I want to make sure they have
the support and knowledge to start using the products immediately.”
SOCIAL MEDIA. “Whenever I make something with the oils,
