Young Living: Study Finds Adulteration In 75% Of Commercial Lavender Samples Tested
by Team Business For Home • • 0 Comments
A new study published in the Journal of Essential Oil Research (JEOR) analyzed 41 authentic lavender essential oil samples from trusted producers and research partners around the world. Comparing these findings to 12 commercially available samples, it was found that 9 out of 12 (75 percent) of those tested were adulterated, showing signs of potential dilution or addition of another oil as a substitute.
Lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) is an aromatic shrub in the mint (Lamiaceae) family. It is native to the Mediterranean but grown throughout the world for many commercial purposes. Thanks to lavender’s pleasant and soothing aroma and its many health benefits, lavender essential oil is widely used in the aromatherapy, cosmetics, flavor, and fragrance industries. However, with such popularity and widespread demand for lavender essential oil, quality control and adulteration remain a concern.
The standard quality of lavender has been set by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO 3515:2002), which provides the profiles for lavender from different cultivation practices and growing regions. To conduct their research, the researchers referenced ISO 3515:2002, and using data from 41 trusted reference standards, they also established additional profile ranges and identified markers in authentic lavender.
The established authentic lavender profiles were then compared against commercially available lavender samples

“Over the past five years or so, with a big assist from DoTerra and its main competitor, an MLM company called Young Living, essential oils have taken off in the autism community.
Some parents I talked to told me they spend more than $200 a month on DoTerra products.”
On Facebook, there are dozens of essential oil groups for parents of kids on the spectrum—the group Autism, ADHD, and Essential Oils, for example, has more than 19,000 members.
Dawna Toews, an Ontario-based DoTerra saleswoman, told me she holds sales events all over the United States and Canada, where she teaches the families of children with autism how to use oils as a complementary therapy to help with some of the symptoms. “When you get an autism diagnosis for your child, you feel incredibly helpless, and you just want to be able to do something,” Toews told me.

How To Sell Your Network Marketing Company
by Ted Nuyten • • 0 Comments
I have seen the last 10 year a lot of mergers and acquisitions. Some because the company was almost bankrupt, some because it was a smart choice.
Industry icon Richard Bliss Brooke took the royal way to sell his MLM company – Life Matters to Young Living Essential Oils and I take my hat off (Chapeau) the way he did it:
Richard commented as follow on the acquirement:
“How and why we made this move”:
Life Matters although profitable and growing was not growing fast enough. Our sales leaders were not achieving the success they deserved. It would have been a long haul to a Billion and although we were all up to the task we randomly discovered something that led to this Pivot.
Young Living Leaders have always been our number one clients in our generic coaching business….Bliss Business.
YL leaders grew more out of our coaching, built bigger businesses faster, sold more books, came to more retreats etc. We started looking at why that was. What was so growth oriented about YL. What we found in a word was Retention. Their retention rate…the percentage of members that stayed on auto ship long term was off the charts. I had never seen numbers like that
