Hi Patlam!
Actions speaks louder than words. SFI is the best online business. It provides us with the best tools and training.
To see the serious PSAs and CSAs, just check their VP Ledgers, it will tell you the whole story about them. From there you can see if they log in everyday and what they are doing.
You can then contact the ones who are not doing good and hear what is their problem. Then help, advice and/or motivate them if need be.
I hope this will help.
What are the best tips for answering ASK SC questions so that you get the maximum number of votes possible?

Hi Sheelah!
The best tip is the one from SFI Tips, ANSWER GUIDELINES, Tip No.5 'The best answers are thorough and shed new light on the topic and/or help the reader fully understand the solution using clear examples, metaphors, analogies, etc.'
From me:
1. The first main thing is to understand the question asked. You find people writing a long story with lot of information but not answering the question asked.
2. You must know and understand SFI. Give your answer according to SFI in such a way that it will help SFI community. What you say must be valid/have points. Don't try to re-invent the wheel. Quote and/or clarify what SFI teaches us because that has been tested and proven over many years.
3. Say what you mean, be clear and straight to the point. People don't need to guess what you are trying to say. If need be, put your points in good order.
I think this are some of the tips, other affiliates will add as well.
Thank you.

Hi Bob!
Yes you should promote participation in Pricebenders to your team. You should also advice your team to promote it to their downline and prospects. That's duplication. Teach your team to do what you are doing.
Pricebenders is one of the most important and powerful product that TripleClicks have to build our businesses. Participating in pricebenders, covers most of our important actions that we need to do here at SFI in order to succeed.
>Sales VersaPoints - When your affiliates buys TCredits to participate in auctions. They earn SVPs and they grow the shares at TripleClicks Executive Pool.
>Action VersaPoints - When they participate in auctions, they earn 1 AVP which is very important for our Team Leader's Level.
>Member Reward Points - When they participate in auctions. they earn MRPs which are also very important for us to build our team.
>PSAs/CSAs - When they participate in auctions, they have many/high chances of wining PSAs/CSAs which are important and needed to build successful business.
Besides the above. They can also win lot of different stuff for themselves.They can also win lot of stuff to build their businesses like Prestige Domain.
When you look at the above things that you can benefit/win from Pricebenders. You can see that an affiliate can build a successful team by just participating in auctions only.
There are many more benefits and things that you can win/earn by participating in auctions. You should really promote participation in Pricebenders to your team. Yourself, your team and all of SFI family will benefit from that.
I hope this will motivate and encourage you to promote Pricebenders to your team.
Thank you.

Should I advise new PSAs to slow down and not qualify as Team Leaders so quickly?
Michael Dlamini, Aff (South Africa)

Affiliate since: 02/08/2020, Power Rank: 99999999
Hi Sandra!
Yes, I agree 100%. I won't say you should, I'll say you must advise new PSAs to slow down and not qualify as Team Leaders so quickly, then explain why. Then if they want to you must not stop them.
As their leader, you understand SFI. You are a wise and trusted guide and advisor. You know that a Team Leader must have an active team to survive. Even if they get CSAs after qualifying as Team Leaders, those CSAs are not guaranteed to be active. Even if they are active, they wont start earning AVPs same time from them. If their team is not active, it will be a problem or expensive for them to maintain their level and end up quitting.
Tell your PSAs that it takes time to build an active team. Refer them to https://www.sfimg.com/the_plan
Advice your PSAs to split their money to make Standing Orders for few months while they are learning business and building their team. Rather than spending lot of money in 1 month and quitting the following month. Advice them that we are here to make money, not to spend money. Investing is needed, but in a wise manner.
Even Mr. Gery advices affiliates to give their business time to grow in LaunchPad Day 11. There is no overnight success.
I hope this answers your question
Thank you.

Hi Maja
One of our jobs as upline members is to provide our downline with motivation, inspiration, and help to create and maintain momentum.
Don't criticise. Instead show them the wrong/bad thing that they are doing. Then show them the negative impact/results of what they are doing. Show them how it will negatively affect their business.
Remember that when talking to them, it is always about their benefit not yours. Always put them first. You are here to help them achieve what they came here for.
Then afterwards, praise them and/or reward them for.
I hope this will help.
Thank you.

Hi Eleh!
Some blogs will not allow advertising so check the terms of service first. Posting banners and text on your own Website vary among Web hosts. So you might need to check with your website host. This is the general way that most websites use.
To install an SFI or TriplrClicks banner on your blog, first go here:
https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/MarketingCenter?form=MarketingAids. Chose the banner that you want to use. Click it, then copy the code that will appear. It will come with your SFI ID.
Go to your blog. Pick the HTML code box. Place it where you want your banner to be. Paste the banner code that you copied into the HTML box. After pasting it, you can then add your tracking code in it so that you can track it. Then you can click 'ok', 'submit', 'done' or whatever that is the to complete your installation. That's it, it's done!
I hope this will help you.
Thank you.

Some, if not most of our affiliates don't visit their Sponsor's/Co-Sponsors Leadership Page. For best use to motivate and inspire your team using your Leadership Page is to make sure that your team does visit your Leadership Page. Posting valuable information in your page when your team is not visiting it, it becomes invaluable. Even posting contests won't work because they won't know/see them.

Greetings - This is the text that appears beside your photo. In this section, introduce yourself to your team members and let them know in what ways you will be supporting them. If you've experienced success with SFI, share this good news too.
>>Reward/Incetntives - Set up incentives and rewards for your downline members. This is a proven way to create excitement and growth in your group. Even your lazy downline will start working in order to win the prizes.
>>I Recommend - Sometimes you find people asking in the Ask SC/Forum what product/s can they buy for Standing Orders. Here you can add products/games and auctions you recommend/ones that works for you.

How many affiliates do I need to sponsor each month to build a successful business?
Michael Dlamini, Aff (South Africa)

Affiliate since: 02/08/2020, Power Rank: 99999999
Hi Alvin!
SFI doesn't limit you. They say "Sky is the limit" and "Do something to grow your business every day".
Don't limit yourself. Sponsor as many people as you can. You will not create a successful business by thinking about it. You will create a successful business only by taking actions every day. Every day, no matter what, make sure you're doing sponsoring to further your business.
You must think big if you want to be successful. As our SFI slogan says, aim high and dream big! Small desire produces small results, just as a small fire produces little heat.
If your things goes well and you have too many PSAs to sponsor. You can reassign them to your dowlime. Reassigning is a powerful tool you can use to provide action, upgrade, and/or team-building incentives and rewards to affiliates in your downline.
I hope this will help you to build a strong and big team that will help you succeed.
Thank you.

When a person joins SFI, what things are the most important for him or her to do?
Michael Dlamini, Aff (South Africa)
2/5/2015 8:13 pm
Affiliate since: 02/08/2020, Power Rank: 99999999
Hi Manohar!
On everything we do, the most important thing is the foundation.
When a person joins SFI, the most important for him/her to do is to build a strong foundation. Our foundation here at SFI is on the SFI Basics.
Mr. Gery states well on the START. His first statement is: "For 15+ years, we've been building the #1 affiliate program on the Internet." (We know is on the 17th year now). From his experience, he created SFI BASICS.
https://www.sfimg.com/SFIBasics
1. Start earning money by accumulating VersaPoints
2. Increase your earnings by generating sales at TripleClicks.com
3. Maximize your income with sponsoring and duplication
4. Add supplemental income streams (optional)
Want to earn even more? If desired, you can add up to three additional income streams:
A) Co-sponsor SFI affiliates
B) Refer ECAs
C) SFI's Pay-Per-Action
When you read the SFI BASICS, they give you the foundation of your business and everything about SFI and TripleClicks in short. The training is the in-depth of the SFI BASICS. If you understand the SFI Basics, you understand your business. SFI BASICS is the summary everything.
All in all. I for one , I believe that when a person joins SFI, the most important for him/her to do is to build a strong foundation by reading and understanding SFI BASICS.
I hope this will help.
Thank you.
