DoTerra Earth Is Another Multi Level Marketing Company

[Guest guest]

Hello Angela,

 

(Snipped)

 

Question: has anyone heard of this company? http://www.doterraearth.com/

>

 

It is another Multi Level Marketing Company .. out of Utah I believe .. but

the two telephone numbers on that site are 615 .. that is Tennessee.

 

It is clear on their web site that they are a MLM company

There is no such thing as " 100% pure Certified Therapeutic Grade Essential

Oils " .. it is a marketing

gimmick .. well .. marketing hype. Who conducts such certification .. and

... what is the definition of

Therapeutic Grade. I'll tell you in advance that the last part of that

question is a trick question. ;-)

They want you to join as an " Independent " Consultant .. it only costs $50.

Note that in the first paragraph alone of their introduction at

http://www.doterraearth.com/index.php?option=com_content & view=section & layout=blo\

g & id=8 & Itemid=61

they

state 3 times that you

will be an " Independent " Consultant .. meaning .. you are on your own and

when/if the crap hits the fan .. they are clean.

First .. as a long time user and seller of Essential Oils I will say that

they are NOT critical to our health and wellness .. that too is marketing

hype. EO are great for alternative and/or complementary treatment of many

minor illnesses and conditions .. physiological, psychological and/or

emotional .. but they are not critical to our health and wellness.

 

In May 2007 Hill was still with Young Living ..

...

he must have left their flock and started his own MLM. He is not a medical

doctor .. he is a Ph.D. (maybe a graduate of an accredited university) and

was the main Young Living Carnival Barker and Raindrop Therapy Trainer for a

long time .. somebody correct me if I've got the wrong feller. He made the

mistake of coming on News Groups like this a few years back but he couldn't

handle the pressure of being contradicted and proven to be a dummy and a con

artist .. so he tucked his tail and ran away.

Welcome you are .. and since you don't do the MLM thing then this company is

probably not your cuppa tea. For those who are not familiar with the

operations of MLMs and want to be .. many of us can provide a number of

links to better explain how they operate. My opinion is, if you have too

many friends and they are constantly inviting you to this or that function

... or your family members visit too often, just sign up as an " Independent "

Distributor or Consultant for an MLM and you will find that most of them

will leave you alone.

 

As for folks seeking quality oils for a fair price .. the List Mom does not

run this list because she has a Mother Theresa complex .. or is bored .. and

me and other folks who write on her often are not doing it because we have

nothing else to do .. we are sellers of quality oils for a fair price .. if

it were not so then we would not be listed as approved Business Links at

http://health./links ;-)

Hi Folks, Butch.....

 

Thought I recognized the name.....

 

The part that gets me, is this " certified " and certification, etc.......

 

Last I checked...the was no recognized certification for either an EO or

an AT practitioner....not as far as the Gov't and other folks who run

such things recognised....

 

I think there's some schools out there that give a cert, but that means

ya paid the tuition and maybe took the tests.....

 

Heck....I'm an Ordained Minister of the Universal Life Church, too....

 

This outfit sounds modeled on YL....
