Simply, do what you say you'll do, when you say you'lkl do it.
I always tell my team that I will respond to ANY message within 24 hours. If I do what i say and respond in that time then i have built some trust and they are more likely to listen to me.
Simple things like that can make a big difference to how responsive your team is!
Why is creating duplication in your SFI business important?

Leverage!
Imagine you could clone yourself, how much more would you get done?
The time spent building and motivating your team pays for itself many times over. Duplication is THE fastest way to build your earnings. You make 1500VP then 10 of your team do the same and you benefit from ALL of them (matching VP)
I can cover my standing order with what my team generates, THATS why duplication is so important.
What are the benefits of IAHBE so that we can best introduce it to our affiliates?

Firstly, why do you want to introduce it to your affiliates? i.e. if you arent aware of the benefits of something then why introduce someone to it? In the same way that how can you recommend a restaurant you've never been to?
Is it for them to have a standing order with 1500VP? If so, in my opinion, there are better standing orders to have (TCredits)
I used IAHBE for a few months but although there is fair amount of information there, I found nothing that DIRECTLY assisted or benefited my SFI business.
I think its fair to say, and fairly obvious, that you need to find things that YOU think are a benefit before you reccommend them to people.

Other than the obvious of name and contact details (personal email and Skype if possible) I would say the key things are your unique gateway links for:
- SFI sign-up page
- TripleClick sign-up page
I have set up a new domain name for both of these links so that its an easier link to remember. Make sure that the only way a prospect you find, can look into SFI is through YOUR link, otherwise you're wasting all that hard work!
Among the popular Standing Order items (IAHBE, S-Builder, TCredits), which is best and why?

1) S-Builder - without question, the key to building your SFI business and making a decent income is DUPLICATION which S-Builder does. I've used it for 9months and it's been far more cost effective than other marketing methods. Clicking red tabs every day doesn't make money, building a team who duplicate your efforts DOES!
2) T Credits - great for gaining action points, playing the auctions and incentivising your team, T Credits are your currency in the SFI/Tripleclicks world!
I personally (and maybe controversially) see absolutely no value in IAHBE whatsoever, certainly when you have the two above alternatives. I've not found anything on IAHBE that you can't find elsewhere online for free.
I hope that helps.

I have experience with in-person presentations, direct mail, trade shows, handing out biz cards, network at events, etc. Can offline marketing be as effective for my SFI business as online marketing?

YES! Absolutely! I would argue that it could often be MORE effective than online marketing (in terms of quality, if not quantity; quality as we know, being FAR more important!)
Meeting someone in person is more of a incentive to look into the SFI opportunity than being approached online I would say.
If you really want to push the boat out, do a mixture of on and offline marketing, that's something not everyone can do.
If you're used to handing out biz cards, get some gift cards from Triple Clicks!

The spirit of competition! It's in all of us!
I've seen it SO many times in SFI; on the rankings page, if you are 10VP behind the person above you in your class/country, then you somehow find 11VP so that you can overtake them. It's actually a lot of fun. As long as the prize available is genuinely attractive for your team, then I think you might be very surprised how effective a little competition can be!
Now if ten of your team are competing to outdo each other then it benefits ALL of you!
Good luck with it and please let us know what you tried, and how it went, in the Forum!

A complete stranger sees your WAVE3 banner on your car. They ask what TripleClicks is. What do you say?

Explain its on online marketplace that you use. Explain it's also a great way to earn a second income if they are interested.
Better still, give them a gift card and tell them to go and check it out for themselves.
If you have a wave3 sticker I think it's definitely worth having some gift cards in your car to hand out for just this reason!
How often should I communicate with my Sponsor and Co-Sponsor?

As much as you need to!
It is in your sponsor and co-sponsors interest for you to succeed, as your success is their success!
They should be contacting YOU on at least a weekly basis however anything you have a problem with that you can't find an answer for on the SFI site, you should get in touch with them.
Also make sure you have the same standards when you are supporting YOUR team!
If you had an extra $100, what would be the best way, specifically, to use it to maximize and help grow your SFI business?

SBUILDER SBUILDER SBUILDER!!!!!!!!
It's the best use of your investment, no question! The results vary month to month so maybe setting up one unit a month as your standing order would work. SBuilder has helped grow my SFI business quicker and more effectively than any other method I've tried.
If you have budget left over, maybe some TripleClicks gift cards or TCredits to incentivise your new team members with!
Good luck!
