Here's what I tell them: SFI is my business; it's network marketing online, but nothing like I've ever seen before; it has a store where you can shop, sell your own items in the store, participate in auctions and much more; it's a business where you can earn points for almost anything you do and earn extra income (then I give out my web address and a TripleClicks gift card).

What is the best way to explain either to a prospect or a new affiliate the relationship between SFI and Tripleclicks or Pricebenders?

SFI is the business and TripleClicks is the financial lifeblood of the business, a store where affiliates and customers can purchase thousands of items and where affiliates and customers can bid at Pricebenders auctions.

All of these put together are essential parts. Affiliates are paid commissions, partly from the Executive Pool. There are funds from purchases that go into this Pool. Also, some funds from purchases are used for charitable work. Without the TripleClicks Store, there

Start out by confirming your registration, completing your profile and whitelisting [email protected] to your email address. Then go to the Basics and VP Ledger and complete as many activities as possible to gain 500 VP the first day and get 200 bonus VP. Then continue learning each day from the Launch pad lessons and logging in every day and completing your To-Do List and VP Ledger activities and sponsoring affiliates and referring TripleClicks members. Train your affiliates to do as you do and

Why is creating duplication in your SFI business important?

When you keep duplicating, you multiply what you are doing. When you teach your affiliates to duplicate what you are doing, you build an active network of affiliates and they teach their affiliates to duplicate. This means you have a strong team and everyone's VP begins to skyrocket! Earnings also grow, because the more VP everyone gets, the more income everyone gets.

The important thing to remember is that without duplication, you're working this business alone. SFI was not designed

I think the TripleClicks TCards are a great marketing tool. To whom would you give the cards to and why?

I give these cards out anywhere to people who use the Internet. I also give them out in the mail to family and friends who use the Internet or who have an Email address. They're also given out in stores to thank people for their service or in restaurants in the tips. This is the bes thing that happened to SFI. One way to use these is to write in the letter with the cards you send in the mail a holiday greeting, say, for Christmas, Valentine's Day, St. Patrick's Day, Easter, Mother's Day, Father's

I am not sure what to tell you because I don't know what your approach has been to attracting new affiliates. However, It may be well for you to go back to the marketing area and study all of the information on the marketing tools that have been put in place. Start with the Beginner Marketing Aids. Try the advertising co-ops. S-Builder is a good place to start. There are also some very good co-ops at TripleClicks that you can join. When you join them, create a co-op with the Co-Op Manager and

There are a number of benefits of IAHBE. Did you know that you can sell IAHBE subscriptions! You can! Anyone who is building a business, whether in SFI or some other market, can benefit from the wealth of information available in IAHBE. You gain 1500 VP when you sell each subscription to customers, month after month. You, as an SFI affiliate, can also purchase a subscription, month after month, and gain the same 1500 VP and valuable information. Your affiliates also gain the valuable VP by

Thousands of SFI affiliates are doing the same thing. How do you stand out from the crowd?

It's true that thousands of affiliates are doing the same thing. However, no two affiliates are doing things exactly the same way because every person is unique.

For example, I may use one word text ad in my signature on all my emails, while another person may use the same text ad in his signature with some modifications in the text for his/her use. One affiliate gains VP by completing the daily, weekly and monthly tasks on the "To-Do List" and in other ways, including playing

What do you define as success? Is it money? Is it prestige? Is it fame and fortune? Is it reaching the top?

If success to you is only money, then maybe you need to realign things and think things through. Do you enjoy helping people? Do you want to see people succeed by living a better life than they did before? Are you in a hurry to get millions of dollars in your pocket as fast as you can with little effort? That is what these schemes are that have been offered on the Internet,

How much time a day, approximately, do I need to invest in SFI to build a profitable business?

The time you need to invest each day in your SFI business depends on how far yu want to go with your business and how fast you want to move. It also depends on your computer skill level and how quickly you can work. It also depends on the day of the week and the tasks you need to perform on each day.

Here's how I work. On Sundays I perform my daily and weekly tasks and, if it is the first of the month, my monthly tasks on my To-Do List. This includes sending out my weekly letter
