I would say Network Marketing for the New Millennium by Cutting Edge Media
Because it goes over a step by step ways to making it from advertising to marketing
to emailing to your wallet for you get maximum results for today's hard times.
You have to know what your advertising budget is going to be each month paid advertising has to come into play sometime there is only so much free advertising out there and everybody is on it and your looking for results also.
Why don't more people work towards advancing in SFI?

Well first off they need to be advertising SFI from day 1
don't let people wait to do anything in any business.
If you do you could be waiting for ever.
I look for people who is wanting to make money and knows it
isn't just going to happen by it self.
You need to focus on both sides SFI and TRIPLECLICKS.
You don't realize it isn't easy to advance to upper levels
if you don't have EA2's and been in SFI longer than 3 years.
Only reason why you see newer people doing it is because of E365
then the next month they want to know why they cannot reach that level again.
I come back and say how many EA2's do you have this month if you join last month
and if you haven't gotten any signups last month. You don't realize you need
45 EA2's plus you doing a standing order to stay at PTL
35 EA2's plus you doing a standing order to stay at GTL
25 EA2's plus you doing a standing order to stay at STL
15 EA2's plus you doing a standing order to stay at BTL
not counting if you have TL's

Keep promoting daily and looking for more places daily from my sponsor I am always talking to my sponsor 2 to 3 times a week if not more, but I have never herd from anyone above my sponsor except Bonnie or Gery which also is always GREAT they will give me the answers I always need or looking for. The other 3 people I never hear from at all so I cannot say what they are like but then there not much of a role model either I would not want to fellow or listen to since they don't talk to there downline at all. I want to fellow people who is like me always out there working it and showing they care about me also and if I make it or not in SFI.

YOU should want all your PSA's to become a BTL for the fellowing reasons.
1. they make matching VP off there PSA's and CSA's
2. there more likely get more CSA's that are EA2 or higher first than PSA's
3. You can make thousand a month just on matching VP alone.
4. Never put a limit on somebody or they may rebell against you.
That is all I need to say on this matter and should get first place on it :)
What should I do when I receive inactive CSAs?

you just keep doing business the way you always have by doing your daily, weekly, and monthly task. Keep sending out your weekly email to all members at least that is what I have been doing all 14+ years I been in SFI. Belive it or not I have had alot of PSA's and CSA's that have came around and started working there business just by watching me keep on going and never know one of your emails you send out could touch base and get them to start working there business. Like that saying goes: you can lead a hourse to water but you cannot force it to drink it. It has to be up to them when they want to do it so just keep moving forward. Here is another saying: if it is to be it is up to me nobody is going to help me. So that is my answer I hope it helps you and everybody else out. Don't cry over spilled milk just go get more. :)

Well I been in SFI for almost 16 years
You can look at SFI stats to see how many people is joining from certain areas
or how products is selling in certain areas.
You can also google it to get your answers to since that would be more up to date.
You can ask your upline for help with this also so your not
waisting money on nothing and using trackers is another great way to do it also.
I am broke but I really want to make EA this month. What do I do and what is the best advice you can give to me?

Well I did pick the price game at all auctions, ttime when they started it, I place my SFI url every where even on Craigs List even thought they don't allow it on jobs places guess what I got signups even a few ECA's from it, I put tripleclicks on garage sales on CL and got my first ever sale in tripleclicks for 200 tcredits, you name it I was doing it because I wanted my SFI Business to work. I fellowed SFI Rules to success all my 14 years in SFI, I will not do anything wrong mislead people to get then to join us.
Yes you can start out for FREE and make money doing it if your willing to do what others isn't willing to do. I am proof of that.
1. Do all daily task, weekly task, monthly task, and all 1 time task.
2. Start advertising from day one don't wait please get out there and start running
be willing to do what others isn't doing.
3. Be willing to lose sleep to do your business
4. Focus on what you want
5. Join all the mailers or safe list, traffic exchanes you can and post your banner for SFI and url's for SFI most are free to join.
6. Ask your sponsor and upline for places to advertise to.
7. Do TTime as much as you can each hour you can win 2 credits aday
8. Do pick the price games at all auctions you can (win 50 or 200 if right or closest)
9. Used your tcredits to bid on auctions but leave some for next day pick the price I say used 25 to get 25 VP and save 25 for ptp to win more next day. Used mrp to buy more tcredits best value is 1 tcredit = 102VP your wanting to make EA2.
I hope that helps you out.

Well I like to show people there wrong
YOU can make money in this type of work or business.
It isn't going to happen over night I been doing it for
over 14 years now and love the way my business is going.
I tell everybody to fellow SFI rules to success I don't mislead people.
I will not tell you that it is going to make you rich but some it has.
Some it has turn there life around when they had nothing before SFI.
I have made bets with people that I will make more than you and will last
longer than you in it because I have faith in myself an God.
I have determanation to do my best at everything I do and sometimes I go hog wild
over it more than the other person does.
I am willing to do whatever it takes as long as it is right in the eyes of GOD.
That is my answer if you tell me I cannot do it I will show you I can and will make it happen just you wait and see, with God on my side I can not go wrong.
Sure I am going to have bumps in the road but in the long run it can and will happen.

Well first thing I always ask is how much advertising are you doing?
Then I ask have you look at SFI rules to success? I always have people
who join under me all my 141/2 years in SFI look at that first and do
all there launch pads and start promoting SFI from day one. So there
getting there SFI/ TRIPLECLICKS url out there for people to see why
wait until after you learn it you can do both at the same time.
Then I tell them have faith in yourself that you can do it just keep
on doing it day after day as much as you can each day.
Remember it is your business your going to get out of it what you put into it.
Free advertising doesn't always work there is over 1 million active members in
SFI and there all are going after it and you have to be willing to do something
different to get the signups under you. Sorry I always say how it is
you pick yourelf up and start fighting to win and your see results.
I hope this helps you out. :)
