Sponsor and Co-sponsor, are the 'parents' of any affiliate. They are assigned to give direction and care to affiliates; no matter ones age in SFI. I don't know if Gery- the founder, is exempted.
Seriously speaking, its very good and important to have a sponsor and Co-sponsor. They act as ones father and mother respectively in our SFI days, in this online business.

Others may have varied opinions, but to me, if my initial steps were not directed right from the start, I may not

Managing a large, active downline is a huge work for any team leader. But SFI has already provided an easy escape route via the Team mailing system. A mail is sent through SFI via the Genealogy tool, all downline will receive this mail uninterrupted.

Responses from such mails can enable the leader to estimate the urgent needs of the downline and their needed support or assistance. Special needs will then be fashioned out for the needy.

Forstruggling affiliattes, of which such

Disability is not only the inability to walk, see, hear or any other challenges. Its rather ones inability to do something at any given time.
Every human has some form of disability. I jokned SFI without the leadt knowledge of internet marketing, but gradually and with the help of SFIs tutorials and support from my upline, I've been able to sail through.
A disabled, as one not externally fit, may have some advantage over me, right from the start. But another who as 'green' like myself from

Building of downline is a real task of building a team of workers; to assist you the sponsor to earn for all a better living standard.
In our quest to achieve our goals, we as sponsor should be care to avoid the following mistakes:-
1 WORKING FOR AFFILIATES

We should desist from working at the Homepages of our downlin. Should we work for them, they will remain illiterate. Upon promotion to the Executive affiliate position, they may not be in a better position to cater for their

The interest in the daily 'to do list' is the initial SFI attraction mode; which with ease offered the initial EA.

To motivate them out of this easy mode is the direction that the sponsor and upline will guide the new affiliates into a great performance mode.

1. The initial motivation is to keep them on track; by daily visits to homepage to continue doing what they have been doing alresdy.

2. Explain about the SFI business and the fact that it involves investments,

The world in which SFI operates is more of a global village; whereby with the development in computers, has a great mark of spanning across the whole world.
Language has formerly been a barrier, but the introduction of interpretation options, at its clear levels enables everyone to have some impact on the business community.

Little English is a huge move on the business environment to do business with SFI.
Although, English is not the highest spoken language but its usage has

As a child is born to parents, so also are new affiliates treated.
When a new affiliate is 'born to' a Sponsor, a Co-Sponsor is introduced to assist the former to take good care of the 'new born'-affiliate.
From here VersaPoints serve as breast-milk; to nourish the child and to reward as well as motivate the young to grow up into a grown child- doing only the initial information provision.
As the new affiliate grows, SFI Basics and Launchpad are given as hard foods for building up

Well, I started working so hard as an affiliate, qualified as an Executive Affiliate in no time.

Then came some days after, with nothing to hang-on to. The rate at which I was gathering VersaPoints ceased and I was left on my own, to try hard. Then came an advice from my Upline friends to buy a Standing Order. I chose to work hard through the thick obstacle; as some affiliates were propounding theories of 'working to the top without a Standing Order'. I tried hard but lost my Executive

There are very simple secrets that sponsors should tell their downlines, especially the new, aggressive type; who want to be rich fast.

SFI is an e-commerce group; that sells to gain profits and share same to all affiliates, depending upon ones performance.

The heart of SFI is the TripleClicks store. It is from this store that all the action of generating commissions is based. So then if one avoids selling or using a little money as a bait, to earn a 'fish' how can one get a

SFI is an organization that was set up over 15 years ago, to offer free training in international marketing to all peoples of the world- highly non-discriminatory.
It has a shop called TripleClicks; that has over 100,000 products and services, on sale. This is the center of most operations.

Anyone who joins is called an Affiliate. All affiliates who help in the sales of such wares from the shop are rewarded with VersaPoints and Member Reward Points accordingly. This increases each
