S2:Episode 21 - Why I Have Been A Wellness Customer Since 1991

Dr. Jordan Smith, a long-time Melaleuca customer since 1991, explains his unwavering loyalty to the company, focusing on how its products have positively impacted his health and finances. He challenges the notion that Melaleuca is expensive by distinguishing between "price" (what you pay) and "cost" (what it takes from you), asserting that cheaper, toxic store brands ultimately cost more in health and well-being.

Main Thesis: Melaleuca offers superior, non-toxic products that provide significant health benefits and long-term financial savings, making it a "priceless" choice for a healthier, safer home, especially when compared to the hidden costs of conventional products.

Key Arguments and Benefits:

1. Personal Health Transformation (Initial Motivation):

   • Post-Gulf War Health Decline: After returning from the first Gulf War, Dr. Smith experienced severe sinus issues, skin reactions, and sensitivities triggered by common household products (e.g., Dawn, Tide, Febreze), which he later linked to burn pit exposure and chemical toxins.

   • Melaleuca as a Solution: In 1991, he discovered Melaleuca products, which were the first in years that did not trigger his immune system. His breathing improved, sinuses calmed, and skin cleared, making his home feel safe again.

   • Long-Term Health Improvements: He attributes ongoing benefits—less inflammation, better nighttime breathing, fewer sinus flare-ups, improved skin, consistent energy, better sleep, and support during prostate cancer recovery and PTSD management—to Melaleuca's cleaners, lotions, vitamins, and supplements.

2. Price vs. Cost Philosophy:

   • "A cheap product with toxins or toxic ingredients is the most expensive thing in your home."

   • The true "cost" of cheap products includes health deterioration, energy drain, lost sleep, doctor's visits, and unexplainable reactions.

   • Melaleuca, by contrast, "stopped costing" him, leading to health improvements and ultimately saving him money by reducing health-related expenses.

3. Comprehensive Savings and Rewards System:

   • Melaleuca Rewards Visa Card: Earns up to 6% cashback on Melaleuca purchases, 4% on gas, groceries, and dining, and 2% on all other purchases, deposited as loyalty shopping dollars.

   • Loyalty Shopping Dollars: Dr. Smith earns over $1,000 annually in loyalty shopping dollars from purchases, not selling or recruiting, simply by redirecting his spending.

   • Cost Per Use Efficiency: Melaleuca products like dish soap (Lemon Brite) offer up to 500 uses per bottle compared to 150-180 for competitors, making them cheaper, safer, and longer-lasting. Similar efficiency applies to laundry packs, cleaning concentrates, and personal care items.

   • New Member Value Packs: Exclusive, heavily discounted bundles for new customers (e.g., Home Conversion Pack saves $200) allow sampling various products and can be tax-deductible for certain individuals.

   • "Hacks" for Maximizing Rewards:

     • Ordering over 44 "points" per month to receive a $10.42 credit.

     • Participating in "Learn to Earn" videos to receive coupons and shopping dollars.

     • Leveraging the Melaleuca Deals app for local savings on travel, dining, and entertainment.

     • Shopping through Melaleuca's Retail Partners (e.g., Old Navy) for additional cashback into the loyalty account.

   • Switching Services: Switched from ADT to Melaleuca's home security (saving $25/month) and from Norton to InfoGuard, demonstrating more ways to save by utilizing Melaleuca's ecosystem.

4. Specific Product Highlights & Personal Testimonials:

   • Peak Performance Packs: Comprehensive AM/PM supplement bundles tailored for specific health needs (longevity, heart, brain, women, glucose support, weight management). Dr. Smith personally uses the longevity pack for men 50+, citing significant savings ($151.79) compared to buying individual supplements. He provides personal data showing improved testosterone and cholesterol levels.

   • Vigor FT & Omega-3 Supplements: Used for testosterone and cholesterol management, respectively, with positive personal results.

   • Fiberwise Drink: Successfully resolved severe constipation issues for himself and his partner, emphasizing the importance of gut health.

   • Cleaning Products: Biodegradable and safe, providing peace of mind for allergy sufferers and families with children.

   • Sei Bella Skincare: Positioned as premium, skin-safe, zero-disruptor, zero-fragrance, zero-irritant skincare that is 30-40% cheaper per use than most department store brands.

5. Commitment and Guarantee:

   • Dr. Smith views Melaleuca as a "total wellness program" and "preventive medicine."

   • The company offers an "empty bottle guarantee," allowing returns within 90 days if a product doesn't meet expectations, including a 90-day challenge for Peak Performance packs.

Conclusion: Dr. Smith reiterates that his 34-year loyalty stems from the "priceless" value Melaleuca offers: a safe home, a chance to heal, and a way to live better without spending more, ultimately fostering a healthier life at a lower cost through high-quality products, bundled savings, and loyalty rewards. He invites interested individuals to learn more about creating a wellness environment that supports health and finances.
