I haven't used Skype with SFI, but I have and still use it with another program, however it is used mostly for messaging and announcements in that program. I have not used the extensive features that are available.

As yet, I don't need to use Skype with my PSAs since I know both of them and they are local. I have been unable to connect with any of my CSAs although I continually send Team Mail and ask if they need any help.

I hope that I will soon have a larger involved Team so that I can use Skype because it is a very effective tool.

I would have started reading the Forum Posts and News Posts on the homepage from day one and realized that I needed to check them several times a day. There is such good information in them. And often I don't have time to just go to the Forum, but I may find a link or a referral in these posts that will take me to a specific page that answers a question that I have.

I also don't have enough time some days to spend at IAHBE, so I would have set up a specific time in my schedule sooner to go there and learn as well. And a time to learn should definitely be set up for all of the training. It is one thing to do it every day and something else to remember to find the answers. Constant review makes us more aware of where to find answers when we are asked a question on the forum or by our downline.

SFI is about duplicating and to duplicate we must learn and do.

Auto-responders are actually discouraged by SFI. However, SFI does have something similar to an auto-responder. We have Team Mails, PSA, CSA and Genealogy Mailers. With these, if you keep the messages as a reference for yourself, you can send them out as needed for Welcome or Encouragement to people as they enter your downline and as they progress through SFI.

A true auto-responder can be good for recruiting as long as you tell those who have joined this way that they should unsubscribe from that list or you watch for the ones who have joined. Studies show that it often takes 7-10 contacts for someone to sign up, so in this way the auto-responder would be good.

As for the SFI Team Mail, you should answer your downline's or upline's questions on a one to one basis, but if someone has a question that the whole team would benefit from learning the answer or the person's suggestion, then you should answer that person and share with the group also. No one needs to know who asked. And there is no such thing as a bad question.

I am an internet marketer and entrepreneur involved with SFI which is a company established in 1998 with an A+ rating at the Better Business Bureau and which is free to join to recruit associates and recruit customers for our TripleClicks store, where business sell items at discounted prices and where members can sell personal items, as well; once you join for free it is up to you whether you want to put in money to grow your business or keep working it for free.

I would give them to my downline so that they learn duplication and get to know the TripleClicks and/or PriceBenders areas of SFI. They would also be a good reward for the winner of a contest.

I would also spread them around the community. You never know where someone could be who might either be interested in the business or interested in getting business as an ECA
