I like this question because this is exactly my budget that I would say I will give up if after spending $100 I don't earn at least to sustain my SFI business. Fortunately I am here for 18 months now. That means I made with $100 to stay and earn stable income. Actually I did not consumed my $100 before I got into profitable level.

Let me share my plan my $100.

1. For the first 4 days I studied SFI business process and I got the idea how it will work so that is how I budgeted $100.

2. I would be an EA for 6 months with $100. First month, the 1500VP was earned for free as of us know. Then I budgeted $20 per month to purchase 10- 1TC packs that will earn me a litle bit more than 1000VP.

3. I was determined to log-in daily and earn my daily, weekly and monthly Free VP of about 500VP. With the 1000VP from my purchase I will complete my 1500VP for the next 5 months.

4. While EA for 6 months, I plan to find active affiliates from network of friends by emailing them and talking to them personally those who are near.

5. I also plan that in 6 months I will post in different free ads including Face Book. I created a simple landing page explaining SFI in that page.

Fortunately, after 1 months I signed up 2 active affiliates, all of them are my distant friends. And on the second month I was already earning enough to maintain my purchase and able to do few paid ads. So I did not consume my $100 to be able to break eve with my expenses.

There are 38 marketing methods listed here in SFI website that a new PSA can use. the link is https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/MarketingCenter?form=MarketingMethods&category=&goal=&difficulty=Beginner&free=&pg=1.

Which of this to use will depend on the following:

1. The personality of your new PSA. There methods listed there for the more aggressive type up to the most shy type. Introduce your PSA to that list and see which one would fit his personality.

2. Depends on His environment - some of the method listed there are environment dependent.

Example: Leave this TC X-Card with your bill/tip each time you dine out at a restaurant. Well this is difficult to apply if there are no restaurant in your area.

3. It depends on the props available - Like letting your dog wear a shirt with SFI. It can not be done if you don't have a dog. hehehe.

Aside from what are listed there its good to brainstorm what other ways your new PSA can do in marketing SFI.

Forgive me if I will answer this question on the negative perspective. I've done contests before but it did not help me and my affiliates. I ended up spending money for a short live "success", I can not even call it success for my affiliates because the reward that all of us can give is not enough to sustain some here at SFI without affiliates.

So I focus on helping my affiliates to recruit affiliates of their own because I know its the one that will sustain the growth. Our affiliates should learn how to do it, because finding affiliates is a lifetime endeavor here at SFI.

I do not want even to give affiliates as my reward for a contest, simply because they need to learn how to find it. So as a sponsor I pour out my energy in teaching my affiliates how to fish rather than giving them fish.

One more thing, those who participated in my contest are those who are already doing well, that even without the contest they are well.

What I do now is throwing away some TC to say thank you for their efforts that do not just benefit them but also benefited me.

Sorry if it did not answer your question but I want our readers to balance some assumptions we have and think that it will contribute to our SFI business.

One of the major reasons why affiliates quit or never start their SFI journey is they are overwhelmed with the amount of information they see inside SFI website.

So, my advise is to provide as brief overview of what SFI is all about. Always start on something that will catch their attention.

What is it then that will catch their attention? Almost all of us who join SFI wants to earn income, so we start with How to Earn from SFI. Then we want to know what we should do to earn those income.

So this is my suggested short overview:

I. Sources of Income from SFI.
SFI has multiple sources of Income, you can choose where you want to concentrate to get the income you want.

1. Commission from Sales from our different affiliates - 45% from PSA and PRM. 15% from CSA and 10% from ECA. - You can ask me detailed question if you are interested with this income.

2. Share from Executive pool - 40% of the company's net income are shared to its qualified affiliates - As me details how to qualify if you are interested with this income.

3. You can sell your own products, even your old things in your house and get all the proceeds - Yes you can do business in SFI online store called TripleClicks. - Ask me for details if you are interested to have your own online store.

4. If you are a very good internet marketer, you can direct you sign ups to SFI and you get paid - Ask me details if you want to earn income through this.

II. What do you do to earn these income.

1. Earn as many points as you can - all the points that you can earn are already listed in your your TO-DO list found in your Affiliate center.

2. Find different types of Affiliates - This can be learned and i am here to help you.

3. Teach your affiliates to do what you are doing.

4. Sell your own products or the products of others

I would like to shed light to those who are relatively new in SFI who are asking related question and will ask what is reassignment of PSA? and why do we do that? before we answer this question Is it good idea to re assign PSA to someone in their own country?

Well reassignment of PSA is done by a sponsor by giving some of his PSA to one of his PSA whom he wants to reward or encourage to be active in SFI. You can do this in the SFI site under reassignment manager.

Now to the question posted above has its own advantages and disadvantages. One advantages of course is they can communicate well with their new assigned PSA in their own language. But this is a disadvantage to PSA's who are in the third world country who's PSA's can barely advance to EA. It will defeat your purpose to encourage you PSA to be active if the PSA you assigned are not also active or not capable of getting their SFI to the next level.

So exercise your judgment as to whether it will help your PSA or not before reassignment.

There are at least three ways how to group your audience for your ads.

1) Demographic - By continent, by country, by state or even by cities. The main purpose why we want to advertise demographically is because first world countries are usually more capable of making online transactions because they have credit cards compared to third world countries.

2) By interest or niche - These are the audience who are interested in what you want to sell.

3) By Personal profile - This is more difficult information to obtain but some advertising sites have this feature.

Our objective as internet marketer are to find those interested in what we want to sell and they have the capacity to buy our product. So, we use the 3 categories above as we reach the specific groups for our ads.

How do we do that? That is basically the essence of the question. Let me share with you what I am doing.

1. In social media like Facebook I first search for the niche using the search bar. Example: I search "earning online". It will yield results of different groups and fanpages on this niche. I joined the group and start befriending other members who are from first world countries. I know them by their family name and profile.

2. I do the same in forum - I use google to search for forum of the niche that I want to advertise. Then join the forum. Aside from posting I also find people to chat who are from first world countries.

3. In almost all advertising site they have features on targeting specific audience some have additional fee but its worth it because what we want are active affiliates. Meaning those who are interested and have the capacity to transact business online.

This question is one of the trickiest dilemma a sponsor has. One hand you want help your affiliate from where he is and on the other hand you want to earn from your affiliate by pushing them to become a team leader.

The basic rule in giving advise to our affiliates is to look at his interest first before our own interest. This is important for long term and sustainable SFI business.

Team Leadership is intended to those affiliates who have real team. Therefore encourage your affiliates to have real team of affiliates first before you advise them to qualify as Team leaders.

For new PSA it is enough for him to qualify as EA and maintain it every month until he form a team. Let him build his team first.

However, after explaining he really wants to go for it let him see the advantages and disadvantages of being a team leaders without a team.

The advantages are:

1. You can have a share of the second home CSA. Which some of them might be active an can become part of your initial team.

2. You will get some TC according to your rank.

3. You will have a Team Leader badge that will show how serious you are in your SFI business.

The disadvantages are:

1. It's expensive to maintain Team leadership without a team. You need to be buying TC to earn the needed action VP.

Choosing keywords is always an issue if you are posting ads and even building your websites. We should not neglect this part because the search engine may it be internal or outside of the website uses keywords to find your post.

Rather than giving you the actual keywords I would rather teach you how to find keyword related to your ads.

1. You think and list down the keyword - this is a common practice for those who do not know the second method. Usually this will take so much time and there is a possibility that you'll miss the important keywords.

2. You choose from the list of Keywords. - The problem here is where to find that list of keywords. Preparing this list of keywords is a product of what we call Keyword Mining.

What you do is you do is you will use a software or online web service that can give you the list of keywords related to your first keyword. Google adwords has this facilities and other website.

I will not list the websites here because its prohibited but you can just google it. Same as softwares there are free softwares for this and there are for sale. Again I can not disclose the website but you can just search for it and easily you can find them.

From those prepare keywords you will start combining those that are similar and choose the best keywords that will describe your ads.

So, hope next time you need keywords, just quickly prepare the list and choose.

Most affiliates join SFI for one reason "To Earn income" therefore we should be able to lead them immediately on some task that will give him income.

However he also needs to learn the basics and the requirements to earn. So the best activity for him or her to to do is related to "Earning while Learning" activities, or you can interchange it by saying "Learning while Earning" activities.

The best place for him to go is the TO-DO list tab. Tell him to earn the points on each activity but at the same time read the lessons behind it. Tell him/her that every point they earn has cash equivalent. The more points they earn the bigger their income.

To add more excitement tell him/her that he/she is in a contest competing among his/her batchmates (those who sign up on same day as he/she is). The basis is the number of points they earned. They have to stay above the average (green line) points their batchmates earned to stay in the contest.

The second thing they should do is to know where to find help if they need one. It is expected that they will find some bottlenecks in their journey with SFI.

They should learn how to find help. The chat, messaging, upline links, the forum and ask SC are the main sources of information if they need help. so teach them how to use these features in SFI.

When communication is established and he/she started to engage with you in communication then the rest will be easy because you can constantly guide him/her to the next step.
