So how do you take advantage of the YL Lifestyle without breaking the bank? Two words: Essential Rewards.

Let’s first talk about what Essential Rewards is!

Essential Rewards is your monthly wellness subscription box! Each month, you customize a box of wellness goodies according to what YOU want. It’s even better than those other monthly subscription boxes because it is customizable.

*Who here already has a wish list going for their next products?

Now you might be asking, how is this going to SAVE me money and why the heck would I want to #JoinTheClub?

Let me break it down!

First, you receive free points. When you’re on the ER program, you’ll get points BACK on all of your rewards purchases. After you have been on ER for three months, you can redeem those points for free goodies! Your ER order is a gift in and of itself. Then you get to use your rewards point to give yourself another gift, and another, and another... and aren't the best gifts the ones you pick out yourself?? :-)

Oh, and before we go on to #2, I also want to mention that you get cheaper shipping on ER orders. I know we are all spoiled by Amazon Prime these days (for which you pay an annual fee BTW--I always forget about that and think I just get free shipping) but if you haven't noticed, EVERY OTHER COMPANY charges shipping. I LOVE the fact that YL makes the shipping even cheaper when I order on ER!

The SECOND reason to join ER is because YL is going to send you loyalty gifts at 3, 6, 9 and 12 months!

At 3 months, you’ll be gifted a 5 ml bottle of Peppermint Vitality oil! 
At 6 months, you get a free 5 ml bottle of Thieves Vitality! 
At 9 months, you get the amazing 15 ml Tea Tree!! 
And at 12 months, you’ll get an exclusive, 5 ml Loyalty Blend specially formulated by Gary Young!
Every year after that, you will receive a new loyalty blend created just for ER members.

Check out this awesome video that Gary Young put together about the care that goes into the first year's special loyalty blend!

The THIRD reason to be on Essential Rewards is that when you’re on ER, you have access to EXCLUSIVE kits that are only available on ER. 

Let’s dive into those kits a bit because they are the BOMB and SO much product for your money. 
When you’re on ER, you can get Thieves and NingXia Red at 15% OFF!! We drink NR EVERY. DAY. So this is the best way to order it. We also can't get enough Thieves. 

The Thieves ER kit comes with:
-15 ml Thieves essential oil blend
- Thieves aromabright toothpaste (Which we also use as deodorant) 
-TWO bottles of Thieves household cleaner 
-Thieves mouthwash
-2 bottles Thieves foaming hand soap
-2 bottles Thieves waterless hand purifier
-2 bottles Thieves spray
You can get that whole kit for $118.50! Steal of a deal!

The NingXia Red ER Kit comes with:
-A 4-pack of 750 ml bottles of NingXia Red
-1 box of 2 oz NingXia Red singles packets (30 count)
All for $187.00!

These kits are 15% off and are ONLY available when purchasing through ER.

There is also a new Everyday Oils Essential Rewards kit for $133.00 133 PV item #4731 (Save $5.75 when you order on ER plus receive points back.) 

***Tell us which kit you want to try first. (You don't HAVE to order a kit, but you can customize your order each month, but the kits are still the cheapest way to purchase these items!)

Now you want to know, what’s the monthly requirement, right?

The monthly minimum requirement is 50 PV, or about $50. The majority of the consumable items are the same number of PV points as the dollar amount, but not all. Some non-consumable items like diffusers have fewer PV points, but you can still buy them on ER. The point is, pay attention to how many PV points are in your cart not the dollar total amount of your order. You need 50 PV. 

Now listen, 50 PV is NOTHIN! This is $50 that you would *probably (*by probably I mean most definitely) be spending somewhere else like the grocery store or Target on things like cleaning products, vitamins, shampoo/conditioner, toothpaste, laundry detergent, and more. You have to buy those things anyway! Why not buy them from Young Living where you KNOW the products are safe and non-toxic?

We call this transfer buying. You’re transferring your dollars from the grocery store to Young Living. You're getting up to 25% back while buying from YL and supporting a bunch of families and their small businesses in the process! Target only gives me 5% back when I use their card. So now I use my miles credit card to order from YL. I personally get miles from my cc company AND points back from YL when I order.

How do I order on ER?

All you have to do to enroll in ER is to log into your virtual office and click on “Essential Rewards” on the left-hand side of your screen. From there, the website will walk you through how to enroll. You can also call Customer Service at 1-800-371-3515 and they’ll set it up for you. Your third option is to hop on the live chat through the website and do it that way!

YOU will pick your order date! So maybe you know you don’t get paid until the 15th of every month, so you want to schedule your date for the 16th! You have the option of changing your date each month, if you want. So in the event that you get a bonus or something and you want to order early, you can totally do that with NO penalty at all. It’s flexible!

Then, load up your ER cart with whatever you want that month. Each month, you have until midnight of your order processing date to customize your box of wellness goodies!

What is PV assistant?

While you’re logged into your Virtual Office, get your PV assistant set up! PV assistant is basically a backup cart in the event that an item goes out of stock and your monthly ER order drops below 50 PV. If your order processes below 50 PV for the month, you will start back at month 1, earning 10% back.

You can set your PV assistant up to keep your order above whatever number you choose (at 50 PV or above). For instance, if you know you’re going to spend 300 PV every month on your ER order because you want the points and all of the freebies that come with a 300 PV order, set your PV assistant for 300. If you are receiving a paycheck from YL because you have shared with others, set your PV assistant to 100 PV to be able to get paid.

Also, YL will select the items that appear FIRST on your list. So I recommend choosing less expensive items first to list on the PV Assistant! YL has MANY items under $15!

PV Assistant will SAVE YO BOOTY if something goes out of stock at the last minute. It’s a lifesaver! Use it. Love it!

How do I redeem my points?

When you go to check out, there will be an option to redeem your ER points! You can use your points on ANY PRODUCT that has a PV amount that is equal to the dollar value of the product (again, PV points usually equal the dollar amount, but not always). 
Rewards points can not be redeemed through an ER order. You will have to place a Quick Order to cash in your points. However, one awesome thing is that you can split payment! You need to have enough points to cover a product but you can use points to pay for some of your products and put the rest on a credit card or use PayPal.

Any time I am placing a Quick Order I cash in a bunch of my points since I am already paying shipping. 
If Young Living is running a sale, I always add on extra products for which I can use my points on non sale items. Great way to save on shipping. #ERcashinstrategy

BIZ TIP: For those of you pursuing a YL business, you should not order products you use for your business with ER points. If you do that, you can not write them off as a business expense. Instead, use your ER points to order things like your monthly NingXia Red, or supplements.

Do I have to sign my life away?

Great question! No! You do NOT have to sign your life away to join the ER program. In fact, you can cancel ANYTIME with NO penalty whatsoever. I don’t know about you, but I was SUPER relieved when I found this out. The last thing I wanted was to feel like I was locked into something.

If you want to (although I can’t think of a single reason you would want to) cancel, all you have to do is give Customer Service a ring or jump on the live chat and you can cancel. You’re NOT STUCK at all.

If you’re going to be ordering ANYTHING at all from YL, I recommend that you do it on ER and at least get the points! Why not? If you decide it’s not for you, feel free to cancel, but I think you’re gonna love it!
