How to make money from selling essential oils from home

Selling essential oils from home

One question that many people have asked me prior to starting an essential oils home business is, “Can I really make money from essential oils?”

It is not such a stupid question, because no-one would start a job even a freelance job without knowing how much they are expected to earn. My wife is a real estate agent and she understands how her earnings are calculated such as the percentage she will receive from the sale of a property. Also, if there are any extras she will earn on top of the deal.

Of course someone who wants to start an essential oils home business wants to know the full details on how they will make money and if the commission plan really works.

In this article I will constraint on the two questions new essential oils home business owners ask:

  1. Can I make money from selling essential oils?
  2. Essential oils and online marketing

How much money can you make selling essential oils from home?

Firstly, you can start selling directly to the customer. It is a great way to make instant cash simply by buying wholesale and selling at the retail price. This is a concept we all understand. However, there is also another way of selling directly to the customer rather than passing products psychically and that is by using a free web-shop which our company offers to all new distributors. In this case the customer can buy independently or enroll as a wholesale customer and get a 25% discount.

If a distributor is working hard at selling the products in this way he or she can make a good living. The methods often used are by doing party plan, essential oil classes, health and wellness shows, county fairs and so on.

The second way of making money from an essential oils is building your team of distributors and teaching them to do what you do. Many of you are asking, “Who do I speak to who may be interested in running their own essential oils home based business?”

The only real and truthful answer is:

Speak to people you know and people you don’t know.

How do you make that first contact?

It is a different question especially when you are exited about your new business. You feel that everyone will want to make money selling essential oils from their homes. At the same time you already know that not everybody will be as passionate as you are about essential oils and running a home business.

Should I be afraid to talk to people?

There is a definite fear of asking someone to start their own business. You feel that you have a responsibility for them to succeed and make money. However, this is not true. Any success in running a business is your responsibility and no-one else.   So, the starting point is pushing through that wall. If you are exited about what you are doing tell people about it. Tell them how much you enjoy working for yourself. Tell them how much you love using the products. And tell them how much you enjoy the extra money. Once you have expressed yourself a few times, it does become easier. The more you do it and the more success you have and the easier it is to do.

Essential oils and online marketing

There is no easy way of enrolling new distributors at anytime, however the internet has changed a lot of things. In the past a direct sales rep would need to setup meetings and drive all over the place to speak to people. 

I have been personally running my direct sales business online for about 10 years with massive success. The key advantage in my opinion is that while you are marketing online you are available 24 / 7. Nobody can work those sorts of hour in the real world, however, the internet allows us to do so. 

The main criticism I get from other marketers is that I am a specialist. And my answer is “So what”. We all need to learn new skills and running a business online may involve some training. Another criticism is more to do with the fear of the internet itself or the fear of social media. The reality is if you want to work online you need to change your mindset. Social media and the internet are simply a virtual extension of the physical world. So, you need to be as security minded online as you would be in the physical world.

For those interested I have written a complete guide to running a direct sales business online. It is called “Beginners guide to online prospecting in network marketing” by Steven Jackson. 

This eBook is for the total beginner who wants to build a direct sales business online. So, almost anyone will understand the method the eBook is broken down into 14 steps and 27 tasks to empower someone new to direct sells to become successful by having a plan that works.

What tools do you need to work successfully online as an essential oils distributor?

  • Auto-reply system on your website
  • Affordable advertising online
  • Blog marketing
  • Article marketing

If you are already working online.

If you are a child of the internet I would suggest blog marketing or article marketing. It is a great and cheap way to build a team fast. If you are not, it means getting the eBook.

Or chatting to your customers when you do your classes and handing out business cards. It is also a very effective way of building a great sales team and customer base. Both of these methods will create wealth and a very good passive income.

Where to order essential oils online and get best quality?

It is difficult to know what stores sell essential oils where a customer can get the therapeutic benefits they demand, so here are a few tips to make it easier

A few weeks ago a fellow advocate from another quality essential oils company reached out to me on Linkedin. He asked me about the quality of our essential oils in regards to his family’s health and wellness as well as a view to considering building a business with our products.

After many weeks corresponding with him he felt we were offering something extra and enrolled with my team. Even thought I always knew that essential oil quality was important, I didn’t realize how deep the need to understand it was, so I decided to create this article to answer these questions.

What customers want to know before they order essential oils online

His main concern was the quality and buying the best essential oils money could buy. So with the assistance of the product specialists we answered his questions. Below I have made a shortened version of what came from the conversation.

  1. As one of the more reputable essential oil companies, are there any natural fillers in your products?
    • None of our essential oils contain fillers or artificial ingredients that would dilute their active qualities. They are free of contaminants, such as pesticides or other chemical residues. However, carrageenan, which is a natural fiber extracted from seaweed is used in our vegetarian softgels and beadlets. This is apart of the shell, as well as in our toothpaste to help with the structure. 
  2. Are there any components in your essential oils have no aromatic component?
    • Every time you order essential oils online from us there will be aromatic component. However, our essential oils are a pure botanical extracts and will have slight variances from time to time. This may be due to:
      • Weather conditions (temperature, sunlight frequency)
      • Moisture content (rain frequency, plant water content)
      • Soil conditions (temperature, microbial activity)
      • Insect activity (essential oils are often produced in response to pests) at the time of harvest.
    • Each essential oil is tested for purity and potency. Microbial tests are performed to ensure safety. Although a sense of smell is needed to appreciate the delicate aromas of essential oils, you can still enjoy a wide range of benefits from essential oils through topical and internal use.
  3. In regards to product extraction, are you using Hexanes or Pentanes or what?
    • We conducts several tests for each essential oil. Here is some helpful information about testing. It is important to remember that just seeing a GC/MS or testing information isn’t helpful unless you can read and properly analyze the information. We work closely with expert chemists to analyze and ensure the right chemical compounds are in each essential oil. The test include:
      • Gas chromatography
      • Mass spectrometry
      • Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR)
      • Heavy metal testing
      • Organoleptic testing
      • Microbial testing
      • Finally the evaluation of the essential oils by their physical and aromatic properties by testing for any bacteria, yeast, mold, etc that may be present.
  4. What solvent will remain in the final product, if any?
    • Unlike steam distillation, expression, sometimes referred to as “cold pressed,” does not involve heat. In this process, oil is extracted from the product under mechanical pressure. We use expression to extract all of our citrus oils, such as:
          • Wild Orange
          • Lemon
          • Lime
          • Bergamot
          • Grapefruit
    • The pure essential oils is extracted from the rind.
    • The citrus and tree resin oils will sometimes have waxes and other particles present in the extraction. Citrus oils involve cold pressing the oils and the tree resin oils come from the tree sap. Although we try to mitigate the amount of solids in these oils, they are always present. They are not foreign to the plant material and in no way change the effectiveness of the aromatic compounds in the extract.
    • Regardless of the care and skill exercised in plant selection, care and harvest, much of the quality can either be preserved or diminished during the distillation process. Proper distillation requires a consideration for the uniqueness of pressure, temperature, time, and harvesting practices, each of which may be as diverse as the plants themselves.
    • A poor distillation process can alter or destroy the necessary aromatic compounds that comprise the essential oil, leaving a substance far different from the intended goal and something that would not be used to support health and wellness. For this reason, the best distillation artisans dedicate their efforts and work to only a few select plants. This focused effort develops proper knowledge and experience, helping ensure congruence between the oil chemistry of the plant and its distilled form. Jasmine and vanilla plants yield oil in such low amounts that steam distillation isn’t practical.
    • In order to provide these powerful extracts, we utilize a complex system of solvent extraction, followed by evaporation of the solvent. After the first extraction, the solvent is completely evaporated at the right temperature and pressure, leaving behind a concrete: a hard, solid mass of all hydrophobic plant molecules, including waxes and other materials.
    • To remove these, the concrete is soaked in hot ethanol (a grain alcohol), which dissolves the absolute molecules and leaves the wax behind. Then, the ethanol is evaporated at a specific temperature and pressure to prevent any leftover solvents from remaining in the mix while maintaining the delicate, complex fragrance of the absolute. 
  5. Do you have any of your own farms?
    • We partner with expert growers, harvesters, chemists, etc. to provide the highest quality and most potent essential oils, so our relationship with these experts represents a significant investment that has allowed us to set such high quality essential oil standards.
    • We search the globe to identify the best plant material, which is then harvested and expertly distilled for oil potency and quality. Many of our essential oils come from countries facing economic and environmental challenges. This provides a unique opportunity to produce the highest quality essential oils while also doing good in a sustainable way.
    • We are creating jobs and improving incomes in countries where they are much needed, in addition to developing long-term partnerships with artisan small-scale growers and distillers around the world. These partnerships transform the playing field for growers to improve their production and establish stable prices with a trustworthy, long-term buyer.
    • We are also helping growers organize themselves into cooperatives to achieve common goals and higher quality while ensuring their farms receive fair and on-time payments in favorable installments that help throughout the year.
    • In these areas we are also funding the construction of schools, health clinics, cooperative buildings, water systems, and more to empower growers, their families, and their communities today and tomorrow. 
  6. Can you tell me how your distillation process differs from others?
    • As important as it is to keep contaminants out of our oils, assuring the presence of their active compounds, at the right levels, is also necessary to guarantee safety and effectiveness.
    • Many oils claim to be therapeutic grade, and some may be pure, but few are subjected to rigorous testing standards for chemical composition.
    • Therapeutic Grade essential oils are cross tested using a variety of chemistry techniques to ensure both extract purity and composition potency of each batch.
    • We harvest our plants and quickly and carefully distill the aromatic compounds of the plants. Other than testing for purity and composition, there is no other processing or manufacturing of the oils.They are extracts.
    • Nature did all the work; we just carefully remove the aromatic compounds and put them in the bottles. Pure and simple!

In addition, we do not ever use the following:

  • Artificial colors
  • Diethanolamine (DEA)
  • Formaldehyde donors
  • Parabens
  • Phthalates
  • Propylene glycol
  • Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLES)
  • Sodium lauryl sulfate (SLS)
  • Toluene
  • Triethanolamine (TEA).

Order essential oils online

Can a customer order essential oils online and still guarantee this standard of quality?

Of course, in fact ordering directly from our online store is the best way to guarantee the therapeutic quality you have paid for. However, I would not suggest purchasing our products via Amazon or eBay because we cannot be sure that what you are buying is even our essential oils.  So, the best place to buy essential oils online is directly from the company itself.

The importance of quality has become the theme from many of my customers and partners in this industry. So, the safest option is either becoming an essential oils sells rep, a wholesale customer or retail customer and purchase directly from the company.

BUY DIRECT   

How much are essential oils at the quality you have described?  

It depends on the oil you want to buy, but yes price and quality go hand in hand in hand. This is not suggesting that the products are not worth the money because they are. As you have already read, the production and process of creating a high quality therapeutic grade essential oil is complex and involved.

How to sell essential oils from home and make money

The fact I have been able to make money selling essential oils over the last few years has been a great sense of pride for me

I have worked on many online, direct marketing and network marketing businesses in my time with modest success. One day I was suggested by a friend of mine that therapeutic grade essential oils was going to be the next gold rush in the home based business industry. Yes, firstly, I was a bit skeptical, but at the same time curious what she was talking about.

She assured me that people will want to purchase high quality oils. She believed that the public was becoming more and more irritated and disillusioned with the large pharmaceutical companies and doctors pushing drugs onto the public rather than offer more people friendly alternatives.

Why essential oils?

The way she was going on about essential oils and their benefits was a big surprise until I casually mentioned it to a colleague of mine at work. She told me she loves using essential oils and they were very beneficial for her autistic daughter. Her main problem was finding good quality oils in her local area. So, of course, I wanted to know what she meant by good quality and that is when the penny dropped.

She told me that the most important characteristic of an essential oil was its purity. In addition, the local stores that sell essential oils did not offer such a high standard. The marketer in me realized that there was a niche in the essential oils market. This existed and so I quickly returned to my friend for more information.

What are essential oils?

Essential oils are natural compounds found in various parts of plants. They give plants not only their fragrance but also their immunity. This is the root of their wellness capabilities for humans.

I personally knew very little about essential oils apart from adding them to my diffuser, so my friend suggested I try some of the oils. I started to diffuse Lavender, Frankincense, and Ylang Ylang essential oils to see if they could possibly help me relax in the evening. After about 30 minutes, I could feel my mood change to a more relaxed and focused feeling. I was also having a few nights where I was finding it hard to fall asleep and staying asleep.

Why should you get involved in essential oils direct sales and network marketing?

Home businesses in the direct sales industry have not been as passionately received for years as they have with essential oils. The main reason is essential oils are so versatile such as home remedies and an alternative to using medication for small ailments to name a few. In addition, many people are looking for alternative and safer methods to treat minor ailments. This ideology has developed into a rise in the use of essential oils over the last few years.

So, this is the prime time to become an essential oil distributor and earn some of that money you have always wanted. However, because essential oils are so popular the next stage is to consider the ways that someone new to the industry can learn how to make money selling them online and in person.

Becoming an essential oils consultant may not be for everyone. In theory it should be a flexible and easy way to start a business from home. However, to make money, work is required. So if you do not have at least a few hours a day to commit to this business you are unlikely to make it a success. Like running any business the hours need to be put in and it is very possible you will need to step outside your comfort zone.
