Excerpts from a letter written by DoTerra's CEO:
When the doTERRA management was forming, two things were of greatest
importance. First, the members of the team had to be completely
trustworthy and honest. Second, they had to be the best at their job,
in terms of skill and judgment. When these two things are in place, you
can move very fast, as it is no longer necessary to “check” someone’s
work or worry that their intentions may be less than completely
honest. When we decided to go forward with doTERRA, funding
immediately became a front and center issue. There was no shortage of
people/groups willing to support our endeavor, but because we felt the
need to preserve the integrity of doTERRA’s mission and the essential
oils, in the end we decided to see if we could fund it ourselves. This
resulted in the founders leveraging every bit of equity they had in
their homes or any other asset. It also meant that they received no
income from doTERRA for the first 13 months, and far less than they
were accustomed to earning after that! For all, this was a significant
sacrifice and for some it represented a very real trial of faith.
Something like this is unheard of in today’s business environment. It
served to forge a united team that is 100% committed to the purpose for
which doTERRA was formed. It is also something which gives me a
tremendous sense of pride for this team.
If you were to visit doTERRA’s headquarters in Orem Utah, you would
experience an environment of high energy, love and respect, with a sense
that employees really love doing what they’re doing. We have a great
time because we love and respect the people with whom we are doing
this. It doesn’t get any better than that.
Our oils are sourced from all over the world. We pay more (some significantly so) because we require a higher grade. d?TERRA also puts our oils through an unequaled quality assurance process, ensuring medicinal grade as well as their being free from other contaminants. Please know that there is absolutely nothing more important to us than the quality of our oils, without which the expected results simply cannot be obtained.
Perhaps an important point to make, is that doTERRA is not about a
single person’s mission or story. The essential oils have a mission of
their own that is larger than any man or individual. We see doTERRA
as being something of a steward in helping to bring about the mission
the essential oils have in doing good for the peoples of this earth.
You will not see any executive member of doTERRA emerge as an iconic
figure. When it comes to doTERRA, you will also never see any improper
or overt references to deity or faith healing from the stage. Please
do not misunderstand. Each member of our team has a deep and abiding
faith in God, which like many of you influences everything that they
do. We are simply committed to sharing the oils in a manner that can be
understood and accepted by your typical mainstream (western medicine
raised) person.
doTERRA’s mission is not to compete with or try to destroy other
essential oil companies. Our vision is to become a very large
multinational company, partnering with hospitals and research
universities all over the world. These efforts are already well
underway with offices opened in Taiwan and the United Kingdom. There
are also significant efforts and exciting progress happening in
Australia, Japan, and Latin America. It is so gratifying to see many
distributors finding great success, some of whom have worked hard in
other companies with only marginal results. In fact, last month
doTERRA broke five new Diamonds alone, bringing the total to 12 so far
this year! doTERRA is growing at unprecedented rates, largely because
the world is ready for a company focused on its mission of a mainstream
approach to essential oils. I do not mean to sound overly confident
or presumptuous, but our expectations and plans are for doTERRA to
continue to double in size every 3 to 4 months. Our 25,000
distributors are part of this mission to bring about a wellness
revolution, bringing essential oils out of relative obscurity and onto
the world stage for the purpose of benefiting more people than could
otherwise be achieved.
