Is it worthwhile to send individual welcome letters to new PSAs...or can I just send out group mailings?

In my opinion – yes, absolutely.

I used to send a ready-made, and rather long welcome letter to all new PSAs, packed with information how to get started, what to expect, etc. It actually contained no personal info and sounded more like a textbook. I realized that very few affiliates actually responded to the mail. Now I believe that most of them didn’t even bother to read it.

Then I changed my approach and now I write totally personal and brief welcome letters to each new

How can we get across to our affiliates that investing minor (at least) amounts of money into SFI is smart?

You may send a couple of free TCredits to your chosen, active downlines, as a stimulating reward for their efforts. Once they accumulate their TCredits from T-Time, Daily Grand, you, etc., they will start thinking about the best way to use them.

You can also set up a special offer for your downlines on your Leadership Page, e.g. to share the costs of one S-Builder co-op with five of them who are the first to apply. That would cost only $4 per person and I'm sure more than five would apply.

Recruiting PSAs or ECAs--which will generate the quickest income?

Well, both are equally important. However, PSAs may be regarded as a long-term and steady investment, if you do play your sponsoring role well. Show them the way from day 1, point out the benefits of joining SFI and TripleClicks, be available for guidance and support. Soon enough, those among them who are serious about this job will put the pieces together and find their way to success.

ECAs may bring you profit, depending on what they sell and how they do it, and it may also be a goldmine.

I believe that most of us face the same problem in the second or third month of membership. You may become discouraged at that time because it's much harder to collect action VP than in the first month, PSAs are not so easy to find as you expected, and you don't feel like investing much money in the business at the very beginning.

Patience is the key! I reminded myself that this is a long-term business, that all I really need to do right away is maintain my EA2 status, while waiting for

How do I get my downline members to participate in my team contests?

First of all, you need to monitor your downlines closely, every day, and you will notice the moment when most of them get stuck and don't know what to do next. Now, that's the right time for setting up a competition!

If you are a beginner yourself, and not able to offer some spectacular prizes, you can offer 5 free TCredits to the first downline who confirms his/her EA status that month. I remember it when my Co-Sponsor sent me 5 free TCredits as a reward for my advance in the first two

How often should I communicate with my Sponsor and Co-Sponsor?

Hi, Abraham!

Any communication is a two-way process, so the frequency of your communication with your sponsor depends on both of you. If your sponsor shows willingness to assist you, you should certainly accept his/her help. And if you find yourself stuck with some activity or can’t fully understand something, your sponsor is supposed to be the first person to ask for help. But, not all sponsors are the same, so if you feel like your sponsor doesn’t have time or patience to help you

Which TEXT ADS have worked the best for you to attract PSAs?

Well, I must say that I like to play with my text ads and have tried out many.

What seems to be working the best is emphasizing that this is not a get-rich-scheme, or that I don’t promise them to become rich over night. Do you find this absurd? Quite the contrary – just take a look at the ads on Facebook, for example, most of them use phrases like: ‘get rich’, ‘make money instantly’, ‘incredible’, ‘amazing’, ‘the best’, etc. If you ask me, I would never click

The crucial difference for me is that I am the master of my destiny. I have the freedom to work as much as I want, and I'll be rewarded accordingly. I find that feeling stimulating, it makes me work harder and I love it. And it also allows me to organize my family life without hassle, as I choose my own working hours.

Is it a good idea to reassign your PSAs to someone in their own country?

If you have repeatedly tried to contact a PSA but haven’t received any feedback, one of the reasons may be the language barrier. Particularly so if you notice that he/she is logging in regularly and trying to find the way. In such cases, it’s most probably a good idea to reassign that PSA to someone from his/her own country as that would be beneficial for both of you.

But, if you have already determined that there is no language barrier and the PSA is doing a good job, I don’t see

If you had an extra $100, what would be the best way, specifically, to use it to maximize and help grow your SFI business?

When you’re a beginner, $100 sounds like a lot of money. Nevertheless, no matter how much money you wish to invest into a business, the idea is always to make more money out of it! So, this is very good question, and one needs to think carefully and make some calculations in order to use the money in the best way possible.

Here’s what I would do:

FIRST:
1 As I find that TCredits are the most valuable asset here, I would certainly go for 125 TCredits SO;
