Re: [Everything doTERRA] Is it taboo? doTERRA income

No it is not taboo. But for some touting what an income is could be overwhelming to others. So we stress that its not how much you make its how many people you have shared the oils with.

If someone asks me how much I make (rude UH?) I tell them I make sufficient for my needs. I am not protective of my income (even though its no ones business) but I also don't want to be prideful.

You will see that most of the leaders (80%) do not talk about their income.

Are there rules against discussing or sharing how much you've made with doTERRA? Am I going to get in trouble if I say, "I made $517 last month with doTERRA!!"?

Maybe it's how I was raised, but I've always been more frank about my financial status and income. And for me, it's motivating to hear other people doing well. I would love to hear somebody say, "I signed up 7 people last month and boosted this month's income by $200!" I would hear that, and think... oh, only 7 people? Wow, I could do that too.

Whereas just seeing the average monthly or annual income isn't so encouraging to me. I feel like I could never reach Diamond level, simply because I'm not good enough/strong enough/networked enough. I want to hear from the little guys. I want to be encouraged by little numbers, the baby steps.

I'm not into doTERRA for the income alone - I spent the first 3 years spending more than what was coming in. :) But now that it's starting to pay for itself... it makes me wonder what baby steps, what numbers are within my slow paced reach? So is it taboo to discuss the doTERRA income? Are there rules against it? I certainly understand that people have their own comfort levels of discussing money, but I want to know if it's ok to talk about it if I wish.

Blessings,

Leah
