How to Create Personalized Young Living Product Routines for Your Customers

6 minutes min read By Essentialist Team

A customer asks for an oil to help them feel more energized in the afternoon. You recommend Peppermint.

That’s a good answer. But it’s not a great one.

A great answer doesn’t just solve the immediate problem; it provides a holistic solution that fits into the customer’s life. A great answer moves beyond a single product and offers a routine.

Creating personalized routines is the secret to graduating from a simple product seller to a valued wellness consultant. It’s how you provide massive value, increase customer loyalty, and naturally grow your average order size. Here’s how to do it.

Step 1: Become a Detective (Again)

As we covered in our article on the 5 Common Mistakes Brand Partners Make , you can’t create a personalized routine without personalized information. Before you even think about a product, ask powerful, open-ended questions:

  • “Tell me about your afternoons. What does a typical day look like for you?”
  • “When you say ’energy,’ what does that feel like to you? Is it more about focus, or physical stamina?”
  • “What are you currently doing to manage your energy levels?”

Listen for clues about their lifestyle, their preferences, and their underlying needs. The goal is to understand their world before you try to improve it.

Step 2: Think in “Time Blocks”

Instead of thinking about individual oils, think about the customer’s day. The most effective routines are tied to specific moments in time. The three most common and powerful time blocks for routines are:

  1. Morning Routine (The “Launch”)
  2. Afternoon Routine (The “Reset”)
  3. Evening Routine (The “Unwind”)

When you frame your recommendations within these time blocks, they feel less like a sales pitch and more like a life enhancement.

Step 3: Build the Routine (Keep it Simple!)

A routine should have 2-3 simple, actionable steps. The goal is to make it so easy that they can’t say no. Let’s take our “afternoon energy” example.

The Single-Product Recommendation: “Try Peppermint oil.”

The Personalized Routine Recommendation:

“I have a simple 3-step ‘Afternoon Reset’ routine that could work wonders for you. Here’s what it looks like:

  1. 2:00 PM - The Proactive Boost: Instead of waiting for the slump to hit, be proactive. Drink a 2oz shot of NingXia Red. It’s packed with antioxidants and provides a natural, whole-body nutrient infusion that supports sustained energy.

  2. 3:00 PM - The Aromatic Anchor: Place one drop of Peppermint oil in your palms, rub them together, and take a few deep breaths. This is a fantastic way to awaken the senses and support mental clarity.

  3. Throughout the Afternoon - The Hydration Helper: Add a few drops of Lemon or Grapefruit Vitality oil to your water. It makes hydration more enjoyable and provides a refreshing taste.”

See the difference? The second option is a complete solution. It’s thoughtful, comprehensive, and shows you’ve been listening.

Step 4: Automate the Process

Crafting these routines takes thought and time, especially when you’re new. As your business grows, you’ll get questions like this all day long. This is where leveraging a smart tool becomes essential for any serious wellness consultant .

Tools like Essentialist are designed for exactly this purpose. You can input your customer’s needs (e.g., “afternoon energy,” “trouble focusing”), and the AI will instantly generate a compliant, personalized, and detailed recommendation. It does the heavy lifting, so you can focus on the relationship.

It’s the perfect blend of high-tech and high-touch, allowing you to provide incredible value at scale.

The Result: A Loyal, Educated Customer

When you provide a routine instead of a single product, you accomplish several key business-building goals:

  • You provide more value: You’ve given them a plan for success, not just a product.
  • You increase their product knowledge: They are now using multiple products and understanding how they work together.
  • You build trust: You’ve shown that you are a thoughtful, knowledgeable resource.
  • You naturally increase your order value: A routine, by definition, includes more than one product.

Stop thinking in terms of single oils. Start thinking in terms of routines. It’s the most powerful way to serve your customers and grow your business.
