I know so many people wanting to better their health, household, and beauty naturally using Young Living essential oils and products. But the thought of being a "member" of a company repels them. You hear the word "membership" and you run the opposite direction. I COMPLETELY get that. I run away from that too. I run FAST.
I assure you though, being a member of Young Living is NOT scary. Let me explain it in terms of another wholesale company most of us are familiar with and LOVE (at least I do, anyway). Costco! Jason and I are Executive Members at Costco. This membership costs us $110 per year. When we pay $110, we have access to all of their wholesale priced products. To maintain this membership the next year, we just have to renew our membership by paying $110 again for the next 12 months of wholesale pricing.
Here's how Young Living's membership works. When you become a member, you choose a membership kit (they are called Starter Kits). All of the kits factor in a $40 minimum to cover the membership cost (like Costco). But, you can choose kits that start you with both the membership AND products. Say you purchase the Young Living Premium Starter Kit ($150). You could say $40 of that is just to cover the membership cost for the year including some samples and a bottle of StressAway oil. The other $110 gives you the Everyday Collection of essential oils (10 -5ml bottles of the most popular and useful oils retailing at $163), AND a home diffuser (retails for $98)! There are other kits at a lower price point. The Basic Plus Starter Kit ($75) includes your membership and the diffuser. Then there is the Basic Starter Kit ($40) which covers your membership and the samples plus the StressAway oil.
Okay, so after you've become a Young Living member...you may be worried about some requirement to spend a monthly amount on the Young Living products. NOPE! Just like Costco, you never are required to shop! Ever! EVER!
Now...how do you maintain the YL membership? At Costco, you renew your membership at the end of your 12 months. For me, that means I hand over $110 to shop another 12 months at Costco. With the YL membership, you only have to spend $50 over the course of the year to be automatically renewed the next year! Wait...what?!? You mean, if I spend $50 on any PRODUCT, that ALSO covers my membership in that year? Ummm...wouldn't that ROCK if Costco did that?!? I'd cover my $110 (Costco membership renewal amount) in product in just one shopping trip! So, Young Living doesn't just say "fork over $50 to renew your membership each year." They say, USE your membership to buy product and if you spend a minimum of $50 over the year...you will have a renewed membership! That is NOT scary everyone! That's fantastic!
By the way, Young Living has way more than JUST essential oils. You get wholesale access to ALL of their products! Check them out here, but realize the prices you see listed here are retail priced (a wholesale membership gives you 24% off the retail values you'll see).
Oh, and one more thing about a wholesale membership to Young Living. You can earn a commission on those you refer! Costco doesn't do that...but I wish they DID, because I speak of my love of Costco all of the time and have convinced people to become Costco members. Oh know...I just talked commission...I'm scaring some of you again! You are NEVER EVER EVER obligated to sell ANYTHING! In fact, very few Young Living members actively sell the products. They simple enjoy them personally and on occasion share with a friend or two because they talked about their love of the oils, shared the oils and helped them sign up too. Done. But you never have to have a single soul sign-up through you. End of story. Relax again.
Now that I explained what being a Young Living member is, feel free to put that fear behind you and ask away about how the oils have helped my family and other families or how they could help yours! I'm all ears!
