hi Rithu - very interesting question.

I guess all of us must regret one thing or the other.

The first thing I would do is to spend more time on the site and take it MUCH more seriously. The reason for this is to stay in the 365 challenge.

Also, I would get the 1500 VP standing order as quickly as possible.

The third and last thing I would do is to join the TripleClicks Wave3 program.

Hope this helps you and all early prospects

hi John - this is a VERY good and valid question - also, of cardinal importance...

I would say ;
1. Do NOT LIE....that's about it....

Always be truthful in any discussion about the business. To do that, YOU must be informed to the extent where you are able to answer just about any question about the SFI business. Visit your Homepage every day, explore the site extensively, VP Ledger, Marketing Aids, etc. Be serious about your business and always convey that in any conversation or correspondence...

Put emphasis on the fact that SFI is established and successful. Also, make it very clear that NO "get rich quick" scheme exists. Like any business, you have to actually DO something, be active, be motivated, be dedicated in order to make any progress.

If someone asks a question you are unable to answer, tell that person you will investigate the question and return in due time with the appropriate answer (never "make up" an answer)...and DO just that, it builds trust and respect.

You must stress that it consumes time, nothing happens when you do nothing. Makes sense?

I hope this helps and inspires you John - and us all.....

hi Mary - very important question

I would say it is important and for various reasons;

1. SFI is a society and "NEWS" is what happens in any society
2. Your business is SFI, so the news should concern YOU
3. There are lots of upgrades to the system and if you do not look at the news, you miss it
4. Special offers are listed in the news, some "once of", not to be repeated
5. Important notifications concerning changes to the system are highlighted in the news
6. All NEW developments will be shared in the news
7. Important announcements appear sometimes exclusively in the news
8. Facts about SFI are shared - which can help you propagate your business

I would be too scared to miss the news

hope this helps you and us all as a community in SFI

hi Kamrul - VERY interesting question

I would say that everything you need is right here on the site. SFI is continually expanding, improving and streamlining this system. It is a system developed over years and constantly considering input from all members.

Suggestions are always encouraged and I personally would say that you should share and post new ideas / strategies in the forum for feedback and also to encourage the whole SFI community, maybe your idea will snowball into something huge to improve the system. This will benefit the whole business.

I hope this helps and looking forward to see some ideas and strategies from you

hi Theodore

Very interesting question. The marketing skills is not the issue, I would say, we all market, whether we know it or not. SFI has a tremendously helpful platform with more tools than necessary to hone your marketing skills beyond perfection. This business exists 17 years for a very good reason, it GUIDES people. All the help you need is here, the homepage, forums, to - do list, etc. - all amazing tools to equip anybody with marketing skills.

The extend of the disability could be a challenge though, I personally hate the word, they really should use alternate words, I have a very soft spot for "different" people. If the person is able to operate a computer, which should be possible with all the help available these days (for example hearing impaired, blind, paraplegic, quadriplegic...) I see no problem. Anybody, really, anybody, will be able to successful at this business - it is an amazing collection of people and products to provide excellent opportunity to those who WANT to succeed.

Hope this helps you and us all - happy days

hi Sandra - this is a VERY important question...

First and foremost I personally think you must be VERY serious about your Business. It is, after all, YOUR private business. If you understand this concept you should be successful. SERIOUS = SUCCESS

Then visit "High Traffic Sites" - you can just type those words into your internet browser (eg. Google) and it will direct you to relevant sites. Paste your SFI link (you will find it in any "Marketing Aids" or "Marketing Methods" preview under the "Marketing" button of your Homepage) there, some will expect you to pay for your ad, if you can not afford paying right now, do not be deterred, there are MANY free sites, you just have to find them.

Then also, talk to friends and family (or strangers:)) and send your SFI link to them (by mobile or email, for example), curiosity is always a good instrument.

If you are in a position of having your own website or if you are active on social networks, you should put a banner on your site (also to be found under "Marketing" on your SFI Homepage), usually people visit these pages daily - it is excellent exposure for your business...

I also suggest joining Wave3 - the banner is VERY useful in promoting your SFI business while driving around in your car every day (it must be displayed on your car)

Visit the VP ledger daily - there are MANY tips on promoting your business and it is always a good idea to do revision, I suggest doing it daily.

Make friends, join the A2A community and browse people in your area, for example, or type in your own criteria concerning friends you are looking for, share everything you find useful on the SFI and TripleClicks sites and you will also receive lots of feedback from friends all over the world. Networking is also a very important tool in marketing your business....

And then just make sure you have a DAILY routine, how much time you will spend on the SFI site, how much time playing TripleClicks games, reviewing new products, etc...and BROWSE around the site extensively, you will discover lots of useful information if you are curious, the SFI site holds a WEALTH of information, explore it...!!...

I hope this helps you and I wish everybody the VERY BEST of SUCCESS....

hi Mary - this question is very important strategically ...

Personally, I spend about 60% of my time at SFI and 40% at TripleClicks. SFI is my main business and that is why I focus most time on that. But, TripleClicks, in my opinion, is inseparable and should be attended to with the same level of urgency and importance.

I love the games and also like to spend time browsing the amazingly interesting range of products. Everything to build your business should not be considered a waste of time, don't you agree? TripleClicks should be a very important building block in your business.

The time I spend at SFI is then utilized for marketing, training, communication (with friends and on blog, etc)...

I really hope this helps you Mary and also everybody reading this

hi Rania

Thank you for a question many members want to ask. I would say both.

The PSA Mailer is more professional and in line with the SFI business and the personal email is more "personal" and "familiar". You will find that some people like to be contacted through email and others prefer the PSA mailer. The best is to ask in a personal email what method they would prefer. I also make use of social networks, encouraged by the particular member / friend.

The important thing is to stay in contact.

Hope this helps you to analyze your communication

hi Maja

Personally, I do not like the word criticism, even "positive" criticism.

I always suggest for the word to be replaced by "constructive". Diplomacy should be used when addressing problem areas. Rather supply information to "coach" the person in the direction you would like him/her to go. For example; if you notice they log in not very often, suggest a "game" where the team submits the days/hours they spend per week on SFI or TripleClicks. The winner must get rewarded, there are various options for instance Gift cards, it will encourage more time spent on the site.

Also, just send out sporadic (and regular) emails that is very informal....become friends with them and also invite them to your A2A friend section. If you give attention, believe me, you will receive attention.

Always be NICE. It does not cost anything to be polite and good mannered at all times - and it spreads and breeds a positive environment. In short ; keep building and quit breaking.

If you treat everybody with respect, everybody will treat you with respect.

Hope this helps us all and encourage better communication practice between all SFI / TripleClicks members.

be Prosperous
