You can't take it personally. Everyone isn't going to agree with your opinion on anything. When you show others the opportunity you are saying "this is a great opportunity and one I think you would be wise to take advantage of." Some will agree, most won't. Big deal, it's nothing against you.

When you tell the waitress no to another cup of coffee, she doesn't go to the back room and cry, she asks the next person. Same thing.

So once again...don't take it personally, it isn't about you.

First of all I check out my PSAs profile so I know exactly why they joined SFI. I only deal with those who have bothered to complete the profile since I am more likely to get a response from them and I have an idea at least of their overall goal.

I communicate shortly after welcome letter and let them know I am aware of their goal in joining SFI and offer my support in finding the path best suited to achieve said goal.

Then suggest that they break down that general goal to daily, weekly, and monthly goals so that together we can determine what we need to do to get them there.

If they have expressed a goal in their profile, at least you have a place to start.

Goal setting is imperative for you to be successful in business as well as in life. Without goals you have no direction and without direction it is almost impossible to remain motivated for more than a couple of weeks.

You should have a list of short term and long term business goals, plus the things you want to accomplish with your business as your ultimate goal (like spending more time with family). You should also break them down to daily, weekly, and monthly goals.

Post them in a prominent place where you have your work station so you can see and review them each day. Keeping concrete goals of why you started a business will keep you motivated through the tough times and keep you headed in the right direction.

Because they have been sold a bill of goods by all those so-called businesses telling them they can make X amount in one week while doing nothing! The only person geting rich quick is the "guru" selling it.

We live in a society of instant gratification today so that is what most are looking for out there. They will learn eventually that "get rich quick" in business just doesn't exist.

That is why we must sift through so many to find so few. Remember: Some will,some won't, so what! Just keep looking!

There are so many factors that go into PPC advertising. I know it looks pretty simple when you see those ads pop up every time you you do a search, but it can get pretty complicated and expensive. You need to do plenty of research before you jump in. Google for example will give you $50 in ad credits when you sign up. Use it to actually see what happens when you place an ad and how fast the credits go out.

You have to be careful where you place these ads. I once had $200 disappear in just over 1 1/2 hours due to a "robot" clicking my ad (I used some generic ad site).

So I think it boils down to this:

1.You could lose significant money learning PPC. It can be very profitable method, but also pretty expensive. Since our signup is free we all know there are a bunch of "lookers" and few "takers".

2. More importantly, the secret to building your business is duplication. Is this something your downline is able to afford even if you show them how?

I guess the bottom line is tread softly if you do try PPC. Remember only 1-3% of those that click through will be interested in your offer.
