Having an SFI website can be very encouraging for the members of the team. If an affiliate want to create his/her own SFI website, I think he/she needs to think and set what kind of website it would be, is it a free or paid one, and what will the contents be.

The SFI website needs to be focused on what are SFI and how to run this business. The more complete the information about SFI, the better. It depends on him/her whether he/she wants to create a website from a free domain or a paid

To be able to survive in SFI, we need a commitment and persistence. I think it won't be a problem if a new affiliate does not have any funds. This is what I do to support my new affiliates who does not have any funds. I keep sending them encouraging messages through Team Mail.

If the affiliates don't have budget to purchase items in TripleClicks, then I encourage them to advertise on free advertising sites and do their To-Do lists every day. I always refer them to the Basics of SFI.

I am a bit organized person. So I will try to find out what kind of organization that is and what their major concerns and needs are. After that, I will make a rough draft on how to link their concerns to SFI.

The next step is I will tell them about the internet in general, the fast-growing influence on business nowadays. When they and I are comfortable enough with the situation we are talking about, then I will tell them about SFI in general, that SFI is an International business company

Before going further to the things unnecessary in communication, I think it's necessary to give an opinion on the members' right. I believe that every one of us has different opinion on this matter. Maybe some of us will say that we need to keep communicating with our team regularly. But how regularly should we communicate with them? Maybe some will say that we need to communicate daily. Some will say, it's not that necessary to communicate daily. Maybe it's fine to contact them weekly.

Well,

First and foremost, just tell him/her that SFI is an International business company headquartered in Lincoln, Nebraska, USA. It runs the business over the internet and serves more than 190 countries worldwide.

There must be something tickles him/her to know more about SFI. From there, you can tell him/her that SFI is growing fast in the online business because of its rapid growth. You can also introduce him/her to TripleClicks, the great online store that also grows rapidly. Thanks to

First, I will explain that SFI will give at least one point and some points for us in order to reward us for doing an action or some actions. They probably wonder what are actions and what actions will be rewarded. Then I will tell them that an action is something to do in SFI. They need to do something if not some things daily, weekly, and monthly. By doing those things, we get points. That is called VersaPoints.

Second, I will explain what a VersaPoint is, in my own understanding. Some

Well, to begin with, I know that I need to be an example for my team. Therefore, it is necessary for me to collect badges as many as I can afford. At least that is one of the proofs I can show to my team that I am serious in SFI business.

I will make sure that I can be an EA each month. I will set a certain amount of fund to achieve EA each month. The best way to be an EA is from Standing Order of TCredits. By being an EA, I will get free TCredits. I also will enter the T-Time contest

Just like the old proverb saying : Don't judge the book by its cover.

SFI has provided us with many fellow affiliates. They can be newbies. Like the above proverb, we can not underestimate our new friends. We can not judge them to be less knowledgeable than us. Who knows that they may have learned more than we have. Their knowledge is valuable for us. Their experience, though they are quite new, may be useful for us. Who knows that they may provide us with great help and assistance in

Each member of SFI has a certain priority. Just like me, I have my own priority. At this moment I am focusing on the traffic to my SFI gateways. Therefore, Hit Tracking and Key Codes really help. This is the tool that works best so far for me.

On the Hit Tracking I can track the traffic that land in my gateways. I can track the results of my advertising campaign in details. Since I have a Prestige Domains from SFI, I have some domains to use. I set them up and I can track the traffics

First and foremost, always remind them to the 3 Basic steps in SFI. There probably many information on the homepage, but make sure they are not too overwhelmed with those information. Always direct them to the Basics.

Remind them also about the E365 Challenge they are involved in from the first time they join SFI. Give useful information about the program and encourage them to stay in contention. Give some tips on how to stay above the green line. If you, as the sponsor or co-sponsor has
