Share Your Discount:

This is such an easy way to get to the $300.00 pv. So many people are hearing about essential oils and are wanting to know more, but may not be ready to take the plunge with a kit.  Offer your discount and let them try Young Livings wonderful Thieves products or a bottle of Lavender essential oil.  Ask your friends, family and co-workers. Not only will this help you get to the PV amount to take advantage of the promotion but you are also sharing which brings me to the next tip. 

Get Enrolling:

If you have been sharing with friends most likely a few of them would like to start using essential oils also.  The enrollment kits are such a great value and when you spend $100 pv for the month the commission on the enrollment kit for you is $50.00.  How cool is that!?

The best way to get enrollments up  is to share your kit and experiences with others.  We often forget about the power of asking and can miss out on someone who is interested because we assume they will come to us.  make a list of ten people you would like to share with and start setting up those classes and coffee dates.

I love black pepper essential oil for it's many benefits but in this yummy hummus recipe you will discover another way to use this versatile oil.

You Will Need

• 2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
• 1/2 to 1 teaspoon kosher salt, depending on taste
• 1/2 teaspoon ground Pepper
• One drop Black Pepper essential oil
