Perceived Conflict of Interest for a Wellness Provider
A few wellness providers mention that they were concerned about conflicts of interest should they become a Usana associate and offer the Usana opportunity and products to their clients. Though we understand the concept of not wanting to “push” a product upon a client, I think the more you understand the Usana opportunity, the more you will realize that anyone who has sought you out to help their wellness will be thankful for any additional input you offer which can help them improve their health and wellness. It is a great service to be a pipeline to others to the facts and proven research that will help them make informed decisions on their nutritional health.
Helpful Facts: - The vast majority of wellness patients and clients appreciate any additional help toward improving their health. Many will openly request it. Some will expect it.
- Most wellness providers realize if they don't help with diet, that their service will be either diminished are actually ineffective.
- The more you learn about vitamins and supplements, the more you will realize the difference between the average over the counter supplement and Usana's quality difference. You are in a unique position to offer others access to quality!
- Nutritional Reset: Usana's Reset program offers an easy, economical way for individuals to reset their nutritional balance. What a fantastic way to boost your service but helping your clients achieve a nutritional balance while starting and working with your services. The Reset pack also makes an excellent retail product since you can increase your margin by buying a 4 pack.
- Education: by being associated with Usana, you have incredible amounts of research and information readily available to help you and your clients continue your education in health and wellness.
- Helping your clients help themselves: isn't one of the most valuable services a wellness provider can do is help their clients take charge of their own health and wellness? By being a Usana associate you have the ability to give your clients direct access to the quality products as well as the opportunity of extending this access to their own friends and family.
- Since an associate or preferred customer orders their own products instead of having to get them from you, it is easier to build trust with a client because you are primarily in a position of advisor not a salesman. There is more opportunity for compensation with a Usana business by building a network of relationships just like you do now as a wellness professional
- By building a Usana business as an additional source of income, there will come a point where you can take some pressure off your principle source of income and service charges by developing residual income - income that is not dependant on your immediate presence. This can allow you the ability to concentrate on the part of your business you like most and concentrate on what helps your clients the most.
