Thank you for your question because it is one that I don't remember seeing before now. I agree that follow ups can be used successfully but I try not to overdo them because I don't want to seem to be a pest. That would defeat the purpose.
I wait a few days after the first welcome message and see if the new PSA is logging into SFI. If they are active but hasn't pursued fast track, I sent a message to let them know that it is only available for a limited time. I include the fact that

Thank you for this very timely question. I am sure that most affiliates ask themselves this question. I have been using my genealogy to see which affiliates are nearing the drop date because of inactivity. I then send them a message to let them know of all the great changes in SFI and ask them if they would at least check out the changes before they are dropped.
Many of my PSAS sign up and never log in again. I think that this is a common problem. I think that if their sponsor can

Thank you for this very important question! I love to read so it is easy for me to read the announcements. Since not everyone enjoys reading or they may be short on time, I consider it important to let my team members know the latest announcements by posting them in my newsletters or by streaming them.
I know that getting people to actually read all the information is a problem that SFI has
noticed, hence The Spin and Win opportunity that is included in some newsletters. I really

What would be a good welcome letter for REASSIGNED PSAs? As their new sponsor, I don't want them to think they're being bounced around.

I think that a good welcome letter to reassigned PSAS would contain the same information that you would include for new PSAS. The one exception would be the explanation for the reassignment if you know the reason.
1. A warm welcome - let them know that you are glad that they're on your team.
2. Introduce yourself and give them your contact information
3. Let them know that you are willing to help if they are having problems.
4. Tell them that you are

Many now use mobile devices instead of computers. How can I market SFI to these persons?

Thank you for your question. I smiled when I read it because this 60 year old grandmother who 5 years ago didn't use a computer now has a laptop, smart- phone and an IPad that my husband swears is an extension of my arm. I began my business using my IPad and it is still my favorite device.
I think that my favorite part of using the IPad and IPhone is that my business goes with me wherever I go. I haven't missed a day since I started using them and I think that is a major marketing strategy.

Thank you for your question. I believe that a good message would be:

Hello,
Did you read the newsletter about the new, exciting CSA Reward program? You should! In fact, you should make sure to read every newsletter because if you don't read them, it could cost you an opportunity to increase your profits and grow your business!
The new CSA Rewards program is fantastic! I want you to read the newsletter so that you will understand how this will help you but I will

Thank you for your question because I am very enthusiastic over the new TC Product Collections. It is a great idea because a good collection of products will catch people's attention and save them time because they won't have to hunt for different products.
The collection of products are limited only by your imagination. Here are a few suggestions.
1. Cleaning - everyone has to purchase cleaning supplies so a grouping of the different types of products could include detergents,

Thank you for asking a question that most affiliates wrestle with nearly every day if they want to succeed. If there is one foolproof answer, I haven't found it but I will continue to search for it. I have learned that communication and commitment are two very important keys to use with your new recruits. Send a welcoming message as soon as you get the notification. Introduce yourself and let them know that you are committed to them and to their success. Give them your contact information and

Thank you for your question. Here are some of my favorite selections for Mother's Day.
1. Gift Cards - gift cards are great especially for older mothers who are retired and on a budget. A gift card gives them the opportunity to purchase something that they really need or to splurge on something they really want but can't fit into their budget.
2. Flowers - almost all women love flowers.
3. Jewelry - the is a wide selection of jewelry offered on TripleClicks that

When you are sending a Welcome E-Card, I think that you should keep the message short and simple. I think that the E-Cards are equivalent to post cards, not letters.
1. Salutation- greet your PSA by name. (Make sure you spell their name correctly!)
2. A warm welcome to your team
3. Introduce yourself and give your contact information
4. Let them know that you are looking forward to working with them
5. Closing - let them know that you are
