The only option allowed for sharing your product offers with Trple Clicks members directly is through your ECA News and Updates which requires members to connect to your store to avoid having them receive sales pitches from 5,000+ ECA who all want to reach every member with their products.

So how do you get more connections?

1. Be Active on the SFI Forums, when you are people click your profile link and send A2A connects and some view your t-connect page and will connect with

Remind them that no business profits without sales. I see too many SFI affiliates pitching the no selling, no sponsoring idea about SFI and Triple clicks. They also promote it being totally free but then pressure you to start a standing order before you even finish training.

I call those affiliates foolish because all they teach is recruit and buy as if SFI were limited to the income of an MLM and they leave a good 75% of their business on the table for the rest of us to snag onto and

Both are a great way to get your ads in places where they don't currently run and take advantage of someone marketing skills other than your own.

Every Co-Op is a pool of funds allowing small money to do big things. The more active you are in joining co-ops the more widespread your message will be and the more powerful your results will be. Being in more than one co-op is like having a diversified investment portfolio. If one stock falls another one's gains may erase the loss and even

Don't worry about fast but think about your future. Each PSA can blossom and grow a steady income for you but a single top selling ECA could provide that lifestyle you want. Triple Clicks reminds me of a fledgling E-bay in many ways. As retailers take notice of the growth they will continue to come in by the hundreds and every day you put off advertising your ECA opportunity is at least 1 business referral further from that goal. Strike while the iron is hot and be focused on sales promotions at

Other affiliate programs don't share in the profits with active affiliates.

Other affiliate companies seldom allow you to profit of sales from more than 2 tiers of downline.

Very few of them have been in business 16+ years or made as many affiliates into 6 and 7 figure earners.

Other affiliate programs often come with high cost, or a ton of empty hype promising millions with little or no effort.

Keep in mind that if someone says they will build your downline

Posting SFI Flyers:

Laundry mat bulletin board, Jobs Banks, Hiring centers, chamber of commerce jobs fair bulletin boards, grocery store bulletin boards, or go to a local mall or shopping center with a hundred flyers and pay a local kid $5-$10 to put them under people's windshield wipers.

Posting TripleClicks flyers:

Laundry Mat Board, Grocery store board, car windshields at local swap meets and shopping centers, area yard sale boards such as many housing projects

Through steady work and transferred purchasing. From household cleaners to vitamins and more there are items you can find in Triple Clicks to buy that are part of your monthly budget. This allows you to shift dollars spent in local stores to your online store and make sure you get your 1500VP standing order as afford-ably as possible.

Co-Op advertising is also a great way to grow without spending a fortune. Pool funds with team members and advertise together. If your team is small think

Individual letters are a show of respect and add a personal touch no auto-response e-mail can ever give.


When you personally contact a new recruit you can often learn a lot about them that will help in motivation later on. You will also be able to share important details tailored to your new PSA, based on any information they have already given. You will also have the ability to translate your message into a different language if you see that your PSA speaks French, Farsi, Serbian
