o:/ let's talk essential rewards.

I find myself typing up the same info over and over to people who ask me about how Young Living's Essential Rewards program works, so I figured I would just type it all out here as a reference page.

Ok, so you've ordered your Premium Starter Kit.  When it arrived at your door, you got really excited and started opening all your boxes.  Excitement turned in to a slight feeling of being overwhelmed.  BUT, you pushed through those feelings, jumped right in started using your oils.  All the while, you're dropping in to the Apothecary Society FB page to browse posts and educate yourself more.  NOW, you're not only familiar and happy with your starter kit oils, but you want MORE.  The struggle is real my friends.

I usually tell people to send me a message when they are thinking about making their first "after-kit" order so i can go over the details of this awesome program.

I hate the word auto-ship because other companies have given it such a negative connotation.  YL's ER program is indeed an auto-ship, however there is no pressure or obligation/penalties if you need to stop it at any time.  You would just want to make sure you redeem any points you have before you cancel.

Let me back up. Ok, so your oil wishlist is growing and you wanna slowly start building your collection.  With Essential Rewards, you pick which day you want your order to process each month.  For me, its the 1st of the month.  Others choose to wait until mid or even the end of the month.  Your choice.  The nice thing too, is that you can process your order early if you need it before your scheduled date.

You have to spend a minimum of 50pv (roughly $50) monthly.  You can go into your account and edit your order as many times as you want throughout the month, up until about 10/11pm on the night your order is scheduled to process.  I edit mine about 879546273 times a month before i decide on what i for sure want. Other huge perk? Cheaper shipping.  This is the only way to get the cheapest shipping that YL offers.

Rewards.  For every ER order (one per month) you earn a % back in rewards.  It starts at 10% and increases to 20% after a year.  So if your order is 150pv, that's 15pv back to you.  I let my rewards add up so I can get multiple (or more expensive oils) at once.

Now let's say you want to place a large order one month.  OR....you get some friends to order a few singles from you with your wholesale discount to add to your order.  Once you hit 190pv, 250pv and 300pv you start earning promos on top of those reward points.  For example, at 190pv this month (September), you get a FREE 15ml bottle of Tangerine EO, a 5ml bottle of Lemon EO and a 5ml bottle of AromaEase.  That's a $55 value, for free. Say you really wanna go big and put in an order of 250pv.  Now you get a free bottle of Mineral Essence on TOP of all of the 190pv rewards.  And now let's talk about baller status.  A 300pv order.  This month you would get an EXTRA 10% back in rewards PLUS the 250pv rewards AND 190pv rewards.  That's a $142 value.  Yes please.  The promos change every month too!

One thing I love about this company is that they have the best customer service.  If any of this gets confusing, you can of course ask me, but you can also call up CS and they will help you with anything.

I think that pretty much covers it.  I'll touch again on some key points below.  
Let me know if you have any questions or want help getting your ER set up! There's still time to earn all the September promos!



To Recap Main Points:

1. It doesn't cost anything to join the rewards program, it's just a $50 min order each month.  That's a couple bottles of oil a month and remember you can change your date.  If you are ordering that already or think you will order that much you should be taking advantage of this program!

2. No hidden fees, commitments or hassle!  You can even ask for a reminder email from yours truly before your order date so you can make sure to edit your order (if you don't it will auto ship what you ordered previously).  And hey, customer service is so fantastic that if that happens let me know and they will take it back and swap out for what you meant to order! Done deal :)

3. Setting it up is as easy as logging into Virtual Office at https://www.youngliving.com/vo/#/login
Click the Essential Rewards tab on the left hand side and follow the steps.

4. You'll earn 10% back in rewards for months 1-6, 15% back for months 7-12, and 20% once you hit 13 months!!

5. Promos! Aka FREE STUFF! If you're placing big orders, you will get tons of free stuff on TOP of the reward percentage! Rewards are given at 190, 250 and 300pv.  One things to remember, this has to be a ONE time order.  not a cumulative order over the whole month.  you only get one ER order a month.

6. Cheapest shipping! Simple as that.
