Hello Marlene,

Maybe being very friendly, having a strong introduction which captures attention quickly.

Always be Honest, no matter what. Don't misrepresent anything.

"Hello (person's name),

My name is Marlene, I would like to Welcome you into our SFI Community and also as a part of my team. I am your SFI Sponsor, and I will be available for you, should you have any questions or need any type of assistance, on getting your own SFI Business started towards success.

Have you had a chance yet to review our SFI website? Do you have any questions that I might be able to answer for you at this time?

Depending upon their answer, will determine if you should carry the conversation on any further, but at the same time, with you leaving the door open for them to be able to contact you at a later time, if they desire.

If conversation should continue, stress some of the greatest points to them, from your own perspective and why they might want to consider your suggestions. (Be direct and right to the point).

Some examples:

How they can start Selling products and begin to earn an income in TripleClicks, to thousands of other Tripleclicks members

The value VPs and how we can earn VPs, just by working some daily, weekly and monthly tasks

How team building will lead to more success

How Fun working in SFI can be and why

Support, there is a lot of support available, mention the types of Support

Benefits and how they can achieve some of the benefits by working in SFI and TripleClicks, etc...

By using your own experiences while communicating to your new prospect, this could capture their interest to take the next step with SFI.

Try to be strong while you are making your phone calls, for there just might be some rejections along the way.

Always remember that it is not you that they are rejecting, that it is the business that they are not interested in.

Review Gery's Rules of Success # 19, to gain your Positive attitude to keep on moving forward.

Some will, some won't. So what?! Someone's waiting! Next!

Which is better to do...sponsoring SFI affiliates...or referring TripleClicks members?

We are "Building" our own businesses here at SFI and TripleClicks. We are given two separate types of businesses to work our way to becoming successful business owners.

Some people are really great at sponsoring while others are great at sales.

Even if one is not good at one of the types of businesses that are offered, try working both types of businesses.

When sponsoring, you are opening up the door for your new PSA to become active in TripleClicks automatically because they will learn all about TripleClicks while learning SFI.

When promoting SFI, go ahead and throw in some TripleClicks advertisements also and vise/versa for promoting TripleClicks, throw in some SFI advertisements.

With all of the great new games being offered at TripleClicks, besides just products to sell, getting people that are interested in playing games is a great big bonus for us because they will need to purchase TCredits, which is sales for us.

By having several different income streams coming in from just our SFI & TripleClicks businesses, the sky is the limit.

Do not limit yourself to just one way working your SFI and TripleClicks business, take advantage of all of the opportunities available.

Try to learn one business really good, say sponsoring, and than add to it by getting really good at the second one, referring TripleClick members.

The best thing for you to do is to "Rely" on "YOU"!

You are building YOUR own business, not "working" for someone else.

If you were working for your sponsor, then I guess you would have to rely on your sponsor to get you to work your business.

Only YOU can work your business and only YOU can succeed building your own business.

Having a sponsor that is supportive is a great asset, and take advantage of that asset.

But remember...Only YOU hold the "KEY" to your own "Success" and you can succeed by reading, learning and applying what you learn here in SFI. You have all of the "Tools" available to you.

YOU are your own BOSS!

Now, go and work YOUR BUSINESS!

This could be taken in two different ways.

If you mean only one hour a day to spend on SFI's Website, I would suggest the following:

1. Complete To-Do list, including Reading the latest SFI News, and enter into the Daily Grand, play one quick game like PTP, make 1 bid in the Auctions

2. Enter in the T-Time game

3. Answer any Team Mails you have received

4. Read either additional Answers in Ask SC, or the Forum or any Training Material of interest

5. If financially possible, you might want to make purchases of the S-Builder and/or PSAs to Go to help build your business.

By completing the above, you are maintaining your Team Leadership status by completing all tasks required, and still entering in the games for your chances of winning and also still able to learn a little bit everyday, and also help build up your downline.

Now, if you need to play in the auctions to help you earn some more AVPs, then on one day, you might want to replace the "Read either additional Answers in Ask SC, or the Forum or any Training Material of interest", to just playing in the auctions, because playing in the auctions, does require time.

If you mean only one hour a day to spend Working on SFI as a whole, I would suggest the following:

1. Complete To-Do list, including Reading the latest SFI News, and enter into the Daily Grand, play one quick game like PTP, make 1 bid in the Auctions

2. Enter in the T-Time game

3. Answer any Team Mails you have received

4. If financially possible, you might want to make purchases of the S-Builder and/or PSAs to Go to help build your business

5. Advertise as much as you can with the remaining time limit available

By completing the above, other than what is already mentioned, you are still able to promote your business outside of SFI, by advertising using other methods besides S-Builder and PSAs to Go, to help grow your business.

Good Luck!

Do not put any "Personal Limitations" on yourself!

Reading and Learning is only using your Time. Every single moment of Free Time that you have, read and learn as much as you can in that given time amount.

Access to Internet, try going to Internet Cafe's, Libraries or any other public facility that will allow you to work on a pc, to work in your SFI business.

Finances, will get better for you by working in advertising methods that are "Free" to use.

Advertise TC Direct products, and All of TripleClicks different programs. By promoting all of TC's programs and gaining new PRMs, you will be able to earn Direct Commissions, (DC) and also VersaPoints, (VPs), that will help you to grow within your business.

Use Drop-Ship companies to set-up a ECA store to sell products to help earn some commissions.

Promoting TC, will help in the financial situations by gaining PRMs.

You are building up your own "Business" and this does take time to build with some hard work and dedication.

Now roadblocks, we all stumble every now and then. When this happens, we must do a little research within the SFI Training or in whatever the roadblock might be.

You can always ask questions in either the Forum, for a quick 24/7 response, or look up the subject in the forum and also in Ask SC.

Keep in mind that "Limitations" & "Roadblocks" are only a "Temporary" thing and can be conquered, only if "You have the Desire, Perseverance, Willingness and to always think and feel Positive", to do whatever is possible to "Keep Moving Forward"!

If there is a "Will", there will always be a "Way"!

Only YOU and YOU alone, can control your own "Limitations" that you set upon yourself!

Aim High & Dream Big

There could be many reasons why some start off being active, than suddenly stop. You might never know the true reasons on why they stop.

What you could do is make sure that you are not being too pushy or demanding of one, to take the actions that you want them to do.

For everyone works at their own pace, which might not be what your pace might be.

Keep your communications down to about once a week. If you are constantly writing them on a daily or many times in one week, this could be annoying and their interest might float away.

By just letting them know that you are there for them when they need you, and if they are interested in working SFI, they will contact you with their questions.

Make sure that you do respond quickly to their mails, and do your best to find the answers that they are seeking. If you do not know the answer and cannot find the answer from the many resources available, than post in the forum and get back to them that you don't have the answer, but you are seeking some help to get them the answer as quickly as possible.

Do not push on having one get a Standing Order quickly. They must first learn a little bit about SFI before they might want to make any type of financial investment.

Study the topic of, "Be an Awesome Sponsor".

https://www.sfimg.com/Support/Solution?id=191295

Be friendly and try to be informative the best you can. When you send your group mails, send the latest News updates to keep them informed in case they missed it, or your favorite quotes, or tips.

Check your Block list and see if anyone has blocked you and why, this might help you to improve where you might have been lacking.

https://www.sfimg.com/MyAccount/BlockList

If you do all you can to be the best sponsor that you can, and if they choose to leave, don't take it to heart.

This program is not for everyone, it is for the ones that want a change with their own situations and are willing to work for it.

Each Region & Country have to deal with different situations within their own country/region, such as; Internet Access, Economical, Products, Payment Options, Communication, etc...

By having a different forum (non-English speaking), for your own country or region, this is giving one a place to go, to be able to help and work with each other on the issues, and help find solutions that one might encounter within their own country or region.

By communicating with each other in your own country, and helping each other, you are finding solutions that will better meet your needs, to help one another to become more successful with your business.

Another solution to helping each other grow their SFI business, would be taking advantage of the LocalPay option.

Having products that are very popular within ones' country, might not be popular in other countries, or with shipping fees being very expensive to ship products. By having a ECA store and offering LocalPay, one would be eliminating shipping fees and still being able to build up their business with great success by selling products locally.

Most important would be, Communication.

By being able to help others from your country that is struggling understanding, because one does not know English. It gives one a place to go to ask for help, by having someone understanding what they are asking, and being able to be understood, and also being able to get the guidance and help without having difficulties.

Sharing tips and ideas on being able to promote your businesses that would really work in your own country or region.

Maybe your region has a lot of small businesses, this could be a great opportunity for gaining some new ECAs. But, maybe another region has a lot more of small towns and not a lot of small businesses, than this would be great for gaining a lot more of PSAs.

But either region, can still strongly build up their businesses, by communicating and helping each other to be able to find whats works best for each region.

So to answer your question, the answer is, by being able to Communicate with each other, to Help each other, to share tips and ideas, to build up your SFI businesses with more confidence and ease.

Hope this was helpful.

Hello Rebecca,

I am going to suggest that, you do NOT rush into investing anymore then you have to right now.

I would suggest that you do set up a Standing Order, (SO) for 125 TCredits @ $36.25 a month and also, one share of the S-Builder Co-Op for $22.00 a month, for a total of $58. 25.

By having a SO for the T-Credits and the S-Builder, a couple of things can happen for you.

1. You will maintain your EA2 status each month.

2. You will have T-Credits to play in the Eager Zebra Games, and the Pricebenders Auctions to earn your daily VPs.

3. You will have T-Credits to reward any of your PSAs or CSAs that are working hard.

4. You will have T-Credits to play in the Pricebenders Auctions for some great products, Download Music, etc...

5. You will be part of a S-Builder Co-op, that will be the start of you building up your team, with some new PSAs or PRMs, while you are still learning all of the ins and outs of SFI and TripleClicks.

I say this because, you are just starting out and are only one month into SFI, and there is just so much for you to still learn.

You need to take the time to learn and grow, before you go and start investing without the knowledge, that you will need to keep yourself growing your new business.

There is plenty of time for investing later on, right now, it is in your best interest to learn all you can about SFI and TripleClicks.

After you build up your knowledge, you will then know, "How & Where", you will want to invest to better "grow" your business.

For now, "Invest in Yourself", by reading and learning, for this will be the Best investment for you at this time.

I wish you the best of luck.

This is a very interesting question.

I think that this question is more on a personal level than a business level. The reason is because everyone has their very own measure of success.

Some might just want to sign in everyday and do their to-do list and post in the forum and to them, it could be what their measure for success in SFI is.

Some might want to have their own ECA store and that would be their own measure of success.

Some might want to just work on sponsoring, and that would be their own measure of success.

Some might want to do everything in both SFI and TripleClicks and that would be their own measure of success.

I don't think that there is really any one way to answer this question because it comes down to what each person is looking for their own success, whatever that may be.

You cannot base what someone else's measure of success with SFI is, compared to what your own measure of success with SFI is, because only you know what you want to do for you to become successful with SFI.
