Essential Oils: How to Get Started

Young Living - How to Get Started

Essential oils are my new addiction.   I started using a few of the common ones a few years back and have added new ones along the way.  I’m hooked.  Now I am using them daily for myself and for my family.  Want to know how you can too?  And save 24% on all of your essential oils at the same time?

I used to buy essential oils wherever I found the best deals.  The quality of the oils wasn’t always the best and my results were inconsistent.  I was skeptical.  Then I made the switch to Young Living.  I was blown away. I started to see how “top quality” essential oils can  be powerful medicine for my family.  Now I use Young Living essential oils exclusively.

Why Young Living?  For the same reason that I eat REAL food.  Quality matters.  Young Living sets the standard for essential oil purity and authenticity by carefully monitoring the production of their oils through a unique Seed to Seal process.  Young Living owns their own farm, grows their own plants,  and cares about the entire process.  And what you get are top quality, powerful oils that are healing, cleansing,  and uplifting.  Read more about Seed to Seal Process HERE

How to get started:

There are 2 ways to get started with Young Living therapeutic-grade essential oils: as a Wholesale Member (best option) OR as a Retail Customer through the Young Living website. Read about each option HERE.

The absolute best way to buy oils is by joining ‘the discount club‘ as a wholesale member to get amazing discounts (24% off) on every product that is offered.  That really adds up when getting your essential oil collection started.

FAQ about Young Living Essential Oils:

Why should I become a Young Living Wholesale Member?

In addition to the wholesale pricing (24% off retail price), you also have the option of sharing the oils with your friends and family in order to earn commissions and participate in promotions for free oils. If this is something you are considering, please contact me (fill out the contact box at the bottom of this page) . I will be more than happy to help you get started!

Is there a monthly order minimum?

No. You do not have to order monthly in order to benefit from being a Wholesale Member. However, if you would like to earn commissions as an Independent Distributor then simply enroll in Essential Rewards, a monthly auto ship program.

I don’t really want to sell essential oils. Do I have to sell Young Living products to be a Wholesale Member?

Of course not.  Since there is no monthly order requirement you can simply just order whenever you and your family need it.  There is no requirement to have a business.

What do I need to do to get started?

To begin as a Wholesale Member you start with purchasing an enrollment kit.   The Premium Starter Kit has 12 essential oils, a diffuser, and some fun little essential oil related samples to get you started. There are two diffuser options to choose in the starter kits.

The best way to get you started: the premium starter kit

When you order your own premium starter kit, you are entitled to wholesale pricing on all Young Living products, this is a 24% discount. The Premium Starter Kit is valued at over $300. As a Wholesale Member you get this for 50% off!

The Premium Starter Kit includes:

  • Twelve 5 mL bottles of essential oils including: Lavender, Peppermint, Lemon Vitality, Citrus Fresh, Frankincense, Thieves Vitality, Raven, Digize Vitality, PanAway, Peace & Calming, Stress Away, and Valor.
  • A home diffuser (retail value alone on this one is $84)
  • 2 AromaGlide™ Roller Fitments
  •  Thieves Waterless Hand Purifier 1-oz. sample
  • 2 NingXia Red® 2-oz. samples
  • Product Guide and Product Price List
  • Essential Oils Magazine
  • Essential Edge News
  •  Member Resources

How to sign up as a Young Living Wholesale Member:

1. Click on the sign-up page. You will need a sponsor in order to get started. My member number should appear on the page: 2027458.

2. Select “Sign Up As: Young Living Wholesale Member”. This will make you a distributor, if you select customer you will not be getting the wholesale discount.

3. The “Enroller ID” and “Sponsor ID” boxes should already be filled in for you. (you can enter 2027458 if nothing appears in the boxes mentioned)

4. Choose which diffuser you would like and select whether you want to join Essential Rewards, the monthly auto ship program. You can decide later if you aren’t ready for this.

5. Fill out your name, address, and contact info.

6. Create your password and pin which you will use to log in to your account and order your oils. These are good numbers to write down or memorize because you will use them a lot!

7. Fill out Commission Processing Information The reason you are asked to list your social security number is for tax purposes. If you make over $600/year selling Young Living products, you will receive a 1099 form in the mail, as is required by law. Young Living will never share this info with anyone. You can choose not to share your social security number if you do not plan to pursue Young Living as a business option for yourself.

8.  Agree to Terms & Conditions.

9. Fill out shipping and billing information. And then confirm.  I have had many folks miss this step and end up not fully checking out.

 That’s it! Congratulations! Welcome to the amazing world of essential oils!

Essential oils have been a great asset to me and my family.  I am learning more and more about how to use them every day.  Please feel free to message me me at katja (at) savorylotus (dot) com if you have any questions at all about essential oils or the sign up process.

xo,
