Hosting a class or workshop is one of the most powerful ways to grow your Young Living business. When people can experience wellness in person or online—smelling, blending, or learning alongside you—it builds trust faster than anything you can post on social media. But if you’ve ever planned an event, you know how much work it can be to manage invitations, RSVPs, reminders, and follow-up afterward.
That’s where GetOiling comes in. With your built-in Events Manager, Follow-Up Plans, and Write with AI, you have everything you need to plan, promote, host, and follow up—all in one place. It’s a complete system designed for Brand Partners who want to grow through community and education, without juggling multiple tools or platforms.

Why live events still matter for your Young Living business
It’s easy to get caught up in the online side of your business—social posts, emails, or digital content. But live events, whether hosted on Zoom or in your living room, create something that screens can’t: connection. They allow people to see, smell, touch, and experience the lifestyle you’re sharing in real time.
When you teach or demonstrate something that helps your audience solve a problem—like better sleep, natural cleaning, or emotional support—you’re not just talking about products. You’re helping people imagine what wellness can look like for them. That’s what leads to genuine curiosity, conversation, and eventually, membership.
The best part? You don’t need to be a seasoned host or an event planner. With GetOiling, all you need is an idea and your enthusiasm for sharing it. The system does the rest—from registration to follow-up—so you can focus on what really matters: the experience you’re creating.
Pick a theme that makes people want to show up
The most successful events start with a topic that resonates with your audience’s goals or challenges. Instead of thinking, “What product should I highlight?” ask, “What problem do I want to help people solve?”
For example, rather than “Intro to Essential Oils,” try “Sleep Better Naturally” or “Clean Home, Calm Mind.” Each of these event themes speaks directly to something your audience already wants, and Young Living’s products become part of the natural conversation as you share ideas, recipes, or routines that feature them.
If you’re not sure where to start, Write with AI inside your GetOiling account can help you brainstorm event ideas, titles, and descriptions that fit your audience and reflect your personality. It’s built right into your dashboard—no extra logins or creative blocks required.
Plan your event without spreadsheets or sticky notes
Once you’ve got your idea, the logistics begin—but this is where GetOiling shines. Inside your dashboard, you can create your event, set the date and time, and automatically generate your registration page. No Eventbrite links, no Facebook event headaches—just a clean, professional page that lives inside your own website.
Your Events Manager also connects directly to your contact list. That means every RSVP is automatically added to your system, tagged, and ready for automated messages before and after your event. You can send confirmations, reminders, and follow-ups automatically—no copy-paste required.
Need to stay organized before the big day? Add a Follow-Up Plan with your to-do list—like ordering supplies, contacting a venue, or preparing handouts. You can assign due dates and check off each step as you go. Everything you need stays in one place, visible at a glance, and connected to your contacts and campaign.
Promote your event like a pro (without relying on Facebook)
Promotion can feel like the hardest part of event planning—but GetOiling makes it simple. Once your registration page is live, you can share it through your built-in email campaigns, blog, or even text messages. Each one links directly to your event page, keeping your signups organized automatically.
Using a date-based campaign, you can set your messages to go out at exactly the right time—like a “you’re confirmed” message the moment someone registers, a reminder a day before, and a thank-you note afterward. You can even include your Zoom link and any materials attendees need, all scheduled to send automatically.
Not only does this save you time, but it also ensures every guest feels welcomed and informed—without you having to remember who’s signed up or when to message them.
Why it’s better to host registration on your own website
Many Brand Partners default to Facebook events or tools like Eventbrite because they seem convenient. But those platforms come with hidden costs—both in visibility and control. When you host your event through someone else’s system, you’re trusting another company’s algorithm or email deliverability to reach your audience. You don’t own that data, and you can’t always follow up the way you want.
With GetOiling, you own the entire process from start to finish. Your event lives on your own website, where you can control how it looks, what people see after they register, and how you continue the relationship. Every RSVP becomes a contact in your system—ready for personalized follow-up, future invites, or nurture campaigns you design.
That level of control matters. After someone signs up, you can automatically send them to a “next step” page on your site—maybe a video about your wellness community, a free download, or an invitation to join your email list. You decide what happens next, instead of letting Facebook or Eventbrite choose for you.
And because all your communication happens through GetOiling, you don’t have to fight to get your messages seen. Confirmation emails, reminders, and follow-ups go straight to their inbox—not buried under social notifications or lost in a spam folder from a third-party service.
Every interaction stays branded, personal, and connected to you. That’s how you build trust and consistency—the foundation of a business that lasts.
Host with confidence—online or in person
When the day arrives, your job is to make your guests feel comfortable, seen, and included. Whether you’re streaming from your laptop or standing in your kitchen, your energy and presence are what people will remember most. You don’t need to be polished or perfect—you just need to be authentic and prepared.
If you’re hosting virtually, GetOiling’s integrated Zoom feature allows you to start, record, and store your session right from your account. You can save your recording to the cloud and, with one click, add it to your Content Library for sharing later.
For in-person events, your built-in RSVP tracking helps you know exactly who’s coming. You can print your list, check people in, and even add notes or follow-up tags right from your phone. It’s all synced automatically with your GetOiling contact system—so you never lose track of who attended.
Turn every guest into a lasting connection
The biggest difference between an event that inspires people and an event that grows your business is what happens afterward. Follow-up is where your relationships take root—and GetOiling makes it effortless.
After your event, send a thank-you email with your recording or recap. Share related tips or a short story that connects back to what they learned. You can even set this up to happen automatically through your campaign system, so your guests keep hearing from you in a personal, timely way.
Once your event is over, your replay and resources don’t have to sit idle. Add your recording to your blog, turn your handouts into a free download, or post short clips on your site or social channels to attract new leads. Each event becomes a piece of reusable content that keeps working for you.
