Effective Sampling To Not Waste Time Or Money:
Following these steps EXACTLY will typically give you an 80% attendance rate at your classes, more enrollments, & makes setting people up on LRP a breeze!
{ ex. if 10 sampled people are invited to class, 8 will come & 6 will enroll! }
Samples are free
ONE oil sample at a time (otherwise it’s too overwhelming & they won’t know which worked). The only exception to this rule is if you’re mailing the sample. To save on shipping costs you may ship two samples, but be sure to instruct them to only use one at a time. Here are some inexpensive 5x7 mailers for shipping samples in.
ONE health concern at a time
Ask for their top 3 health concerns, then choose to sample the one for which you know they will see a quick result using the oil you give them.
10-15 drops in the sample container (enough for a few applications)
Sampling before a class increases class attendance (for both in-person & online classes)
Top oils for sampling: Deep Blue, Wild Orange, Peppermint, Lavender, DigestZen, & OnGuard. They each typically have a quick response. Always remind your contact that just like with medications, every body is different … what works for one person may not be the best for another. “If this isn’t the right oil for you don’t worry. If you’re as patient with oils as you are with medication, we’ll find the best oil for your health concern.”
Include an essential oil usage guide with the sample (see our Fast Start Supplies page for links)
📝 Your Assignment:
1) As you listen to today’s audio, fill 50 sample vials with 10 drops oil (use the most popular sampling oils).
2) Order any sampling supplies you need from the Fast Start Supply page.
3) Practice sampling with someone at home:
“Essential Oils are similar to medication in this way...When you have an ailment & you go to the doctor & receive a prescription & if you use it and it doesn’t work, you usually don’t think to yourself ‘I’m never going to try medication again because it’s all useless.’What you think is ‘That medication didn’t work well on my body so I need to go back to the doctor & ask him for something different.’ We KNOW this. We understand that medications affect people differently. Essential Oils are similar in the fact that each oil is not going to have the exact same effect on every single person. So if you use an oil & don’t get the results you're looking for, that’s OK, we can try something else. If you’re as patient with Essential Oils as you are with medication we’ll find something that’s safer, cheaper & more effective for you.”
Tell them how to use it & what to look for:
“Here’s what you’re going to do: When you’re getting into bed tonight, rub a few drops of this Serenity oil onto your temples. Also graze your pillow with your fingertips. As you lay down & take slow, deep breaths, you’ll feel a wonderful calm come over you. You should feel more relaxed, & you should sleep better. But remember if you don’t get the results you’re hoping for we can try something else. I’ll call you in two days to see how it goes. Around when is the best time to call?”
Give them a mini-usage guide & explain how to use it:
“Oh & I also wanted to gift you this usage guide- it’s an essential oil reference guide. Have a look through it & learn some of the simple ways you can use essential oils for the most common ailments.”
