On SFI I learned two secrets to becomming a team leader one is a standing Order (worth 3000 vp) which costs you a little money every month and the other which does not cost money, involves selling packs of T Credits to affiliates or TC members who participate regularly in the auctions.

Once you become team leader you get matching vp, but your dowline team has to have lots of hardworking members or just a handful that earn lots of points each month in order for you to maintain your team leader status every month.

My answer is based on my own personal experience, because I am a financially challenged person myself so when I first started I did not set a standing order for months until I had enough money so what I recommend to you is to start with IAHBE because as other affiliates have told you there is allot of things you have available to learn about marketing and building a business so first you start your SO with this so that you can have 1500VP needed to become an EA, and then as soon as you can afford it you add 1 pack of 100 (or 120) TCredits so that your total VP every month ads to 2700VP.

TCredits are beneficial because the more you stack up every month then the more TC benefits you get such as bidding at Price bender auctions, and TCredits also come in handy of you want to buy a product and you do not have the money to buy it! T Credits also are helpful to sell your unwanted items or an online Garage Sale on Triple Clicks and so on.

The point is if you do not have the money do not set up a Standing order instead you spend 2 or three months saving money from your paycheck until you have $300 or $200 saved up and then you start with one product on the SO and then gradually add more products to it.

Hope this helps.

In my personal experience I consider using Member Reward points to buy T Credits every month if you don't have any.

Once you have lots of T Credits I would use them to buy gift cards for the next 3 to 6 months.

The point is that all the points you get every month should be saved up in order to have lots of them, and you should only spend the smallest amount possible on products you really need and for buying cheap advertising products to generate sales or sponsor affiliates.

You keep moving, that means that you do not stop advertising, and you have to use many different methods on Internet and offline.

In my personal experience I get rejected over and over again and allot of times I don't get answers at all, so being ignored is even more dreadful.

So in order to get a yes, I look for training materials, not just here on SFI but I also go on Youtube, and I search on Google in order to learn how to write articles, and how to write ads for free classifieds so I suggest that instead of getting frustrated you do just like I am doing. Every month you purchase post Cards and business cards so that you do not have to talk face to face you can just give them out and it will take a long time but eventually you will get a yes.

I signed up for SFI in December of 2012 and after 9 months of advertising I finally got only one TC member, my cousin also told me that she is considering the possibility of signing up to SFI so I hope she does I am keeping my fingers crossed.

The reason why you are successful in SFI is because you followed the footsteps of your upline team so you dowline will also follow your footsteps.

You share all the things that you learned here on SFI, don't just share your sucesses also share with them your failures because both are important for the success of your team on SFI. The objective of duplication is to teach them how to build on the success of other affiliates especially yourself and learning from the failures of affiliates before them, that way they will also learn from their own failures.

When they fail at something you tell them stories about other successful people who have gone through failures and how they used this as a learning experience and not to just give up and think that they will not succeed, on the contrary failure is also a source of success because it allows them to learn: This is what duplication should be based on, teaching them to build on the success of others, and learning from failures.

Hope this answers your question.

The most important thing about chat is being a good listener. I mean that you first start by greeting your new PSA and then ask questions in order for them to talk to you and then allow you to understand why they joined SFI and what their goals and aspirations are. Most affiliates I have spoken to on the first day ask me for help because they get into the affiliate center and they have no idea where to start so that is where you come in.

When I chat with my affiliates I always ask them if they need any help getting started, most of them do not answer me but a few of them do so the first thing I do is point them to the to do list and I tell them to start on the first 4 things. I tell them to confirm their registration, Whitelisting, posting a photo, and complete the affiliate profile. I try not to give them too much information at once because I don't want to overwhelm them so I show them the start page, the one that has the video and then I tell them to read the basics, and the compensation plan because the first thing they want to know is how to make money on SFI and these materials tell them how to do that.

The next thing is to give them your email address and to confirm that the email address they provide is the one that they will check on a regular basis, I always tell them the importance of whitelisting because I tell them that my emails and SFI's emails will end up in the junk folder. So I always tell them that if they don't get my emails check the junk folder because in my emails I will give them further instructions.


When you start a chat with your affiliates you let them know that you are their sponsor and your job is to hold them by the hand and teach them step by step how to do the daily activities on SFI and other activities on the to do list. You also tell them that you will give them information in bits and pieces because too much information will overwhelm them, but it is good to find out from them how much information they can handle.

Trust your instincts and just learn how to listen before you talk to your affiliates.

I have a few ideas I can suggest to you.

ECA: If you are an ECA and you are selling products to non SFI affiliates then you can send a wave 3 card and TC Gift card as a token of gratitude for buying your products.

Garage Sale: If you are selling your unwanted stuff on Tripleclicks or anywhere online or offline, you can give out one of these cards.

Restaurant: Add it to the tip when you pay the waiter or waitress, and you can also leave it on the table after you get up and leave so that the next customer can see it and take it, I have done this a few times.

Capture Links: You can create your own or purchase one on Triplecliks so that anyone interested in receiving a giftcard and wave 3 card you can collect names and addresses so that you can send one in the mail.

Visitors: In your house/apartment you can purchase a card holder and put your stack of cards on it so that anyone who comes to visit can see them and take one.

Co workers: At your job you can give out these cards to co workers. If you work as a cashier then you can staple them to the receipts when customers purchase.

Delivery: In the marketing center one of the recommendations is to pay a pizza delivery, or any delivery person to give out these cards for you.

There are many more creative ideas for this but in the interest of time this is all I am going to share with you. So just be creative and use your imagination.

1. purchase PSA signups from PSA's to go or Pro profit. so that way it allows you to save your cash in order to pay for your standing order every month and even buy more TCredits ( additional from the Standing order) so that you can give to your downline as a reward or gift for becoming EA's or TLs or for becoming Wave3 members.

2. Eager Zebra Time Machine- there is always a 50/50 chance that you may win and get more TCredits but if you don't win you always get more action versapoints that you need every month to maintain your team leader rank. It may just be 1vp per entry but if you do it several times a month it may add up to a few hundred VP. So never underestimate this. Do not worry about the TCredits you are losing (because every month you will get more)but think about the VP you will gain = more money every month.

3. Auctions = Pricebender I recommend the packs of 200, 400,500 etc... because if you win well you will have allot but also you can also share your experience about it with your friends, family etc... on Facebook and social media so that they too can be encouraged to participate and become TC members. If you don't win you will still get the Good amounts of monthly VP.
Double MRP you can use this to gain MRP and with lots of it you buy more TCredits.

4. Advertising and Marketing.
This is obvious! you can buy business cards, post Cards, your personal affiliate Stamp custom made and the ink that goes with it. You can also buy advertising magnets for your car, and wearable items to advertise SFI and TC. Or Books on TC Direct to learn about marketing, and building a business because in this store you will get VP (not the ECAs). The point is I also use my TCredits to buy stuff on TC Direct to get VP.

I hope this helps

My favorite Eager Zebra games are Knock out Trivia and Gold streak because here you have to mentally be very focused in order to answer the questions correctly.

Here anyone can get member reward points and versapoints.

Gold streak has a downside, you can only play a limit of 12 games per day, the knock out trivia I think you can play all you want until the T Credits run out.

The reason why I like these the most is because they are easier than the other games. I also have to warn you that you can get hooked very easily because these games are addictive. These are the best when you don't have money to buy products.

Auctions: these are the best for Versa Points because you can get allot of them if you win the product and buy it at the lowest price possible. For example if you participate in an auction for a oack of 300 TCredits then you will get a good amount of VP and you also get the pack of TCredits if you win the auction.

The Time machine in my personal opinion is the most difficult game to play because I stink at making predictions.

This answer is based on my own personal opinion so if you want to know which one is best then you have to play them and then form your own opinion by measuring the results.
Have Fun!

In my personal opinion none is better than the other because there is always a chance that from home makers and retired seniors you may get sign ups or not. Both can either have free time on their hands and some may not have anytime at all. Some may be in bad financial situations and therefore cannot afford to buy a computer or have access to Internet.

So when you advertise I think that you should target both.
