Based on your two options in building your team, consider the following points:

- Which method suits your time frame in regards to your team building and moving up to the next rank?

- Whichever method you’re going to choose, do you have a budget plan for building your team?

- Do you have marketing strategy for your advertising campaign?

To help you choose the best method in building your team, I’m going to lay down the advantages and disadvantages of both options.

1. Launching your own advertising campaign.
Depending on your allocated time in operating your SFI business, you’ll need to formulate your marketing strategy. It means, not just an advertising campaign, but a marketing campaign that is well researched, well-thought-out and focused on details and execution.

Planning your marketing campaign starts with understanding your position in the marketplace and ends with details such as the wording of an advertisement. As you run your advertisements, you may need to do some fine adjustments. You can measure the performance of your ads by using Hit Tracking and Keycodes. You’ll need to leave room to make changes as you go along because no plan can perfectly capture reality. But you should also be able to commit fully to implementing your plan-or some future version of it, if you want to take a strong step toward growth.

To get the most out of your advertising dollars as well as good results, you’ll need to focus on the details and execution of your marketing plan. It will require considerable amount of time, persistence and commitment on your part, but it pays off in the long run.

2. Purchasing PSAs

Be careful where you purchase your PSAs. You’ll need to do research on how the PSA sellers pre-qualify their leads. What kind of method these sellers are using to generate their leads? Are they targeting the right prospects who are very interested in network marketing or just generating leads of somewhat interest in business opportunity? It may save you time to purchase sign ups from ECAs but acquiring PSAs, who don’t even log in after signing up is a waste of your marketing dollars.

Doing your own advertising campaign gives you the advantage to target your market and become in-tune with the people you’re trying to reach, but in purchasing PSAs you have no idea how the PSA sellers generate their leads and how effective is their pre-qualification method.

Persistent promotion of your SFI business will be the key element to your success. Whichever option you choose will depend on your personality type and how well it suits in your team building and expanding the growth of your SFI business.

To answer your question, you need to look at the whole situation in regards to the growth of your SFI networking business. Find out why you would offer non-SFI related incentives to your PSAs/CSAs by asking the following questions:

- Will this move contribute to the development and growth of your PSAs/CSAs and to your whole SFI organization?

- Will it motivate your PSAs/CSAs to increase their level of activity in expanding the growth of their own SFI businesses?

If you can affirm both questions above, you need to consider carefully the value of the incentive. What kind of DVD you’re offering to your PSAs/CSAs as an incentive? Would this DVD be suited to all of your PSAs/CSAs? If you’re offering a DVD movie, this might not be suitable to everyone. So you really need to carefully consider those questions above in order to make a wise decision and help your PSAs/CSAs to grow their network.

Lead by example. If you’re asking them to set up Standing Order (SO), you must have an SO yourself.

The key is to offer an incentive, (if you decide to go this way) that suits all members of your team. Basically, the thing that might motivate a team member won’t necessarily work with another team member and vice versa. So if you have different options then you should be able to give all of them something to aim for.

Find out what really motivates your team members. What would bring each and every one of them to the highest level of performance? Communicate with them in a regular basis to understand their professional needs and goals so that you are on the right track to know what can really motivate them.
If you understand your team members, they will take more interest in building their own SFI businesses and follow your lead.

Is it a good idea to sponsor family members into SFI? It depends on the situation. You may want to consider your relationship with your family, before presenting the SFI opportunity. Do you have a good reputation or is your family being supportive to you?

Have your family noticed change in your life? Being happy and having a good mood, because you have found the passion of helping other people, which is possible through SFI opportunity, will help you enormously in your favor to sponsor them.

If this is not the case, I would be cautious in presenting to them about the SFI opportunity.

SFI core concept is based on duplication, consistently sponsoring affiliates in order to become successful in venturing this business. Before deciding to take action on what you should do with your PSAs who don't engage in duplication, make sure that you establish the facts about their activities and behaviour in venturing their SFI business. If you make a hasty conclusion about them, it would hamper the growth of your SFI business.

Make use of the Genealogy to find out more about your PSAs, whether they are active, building and expanding their network, just logging in from time to time or being inactive.

He/she could be facing obstacles such as: personal problems, financial and slow Internet connection to name a few. Ensuring these facts can impact the overall growth of your SFI business.

- Remind them about the foundation of venturing SFI. Reviewing the SFI BASICS will help them to focus on which SFI is founded. It could be that your PSAs are not yet clearly understanding this important concept to become successful in SFI.

- Explain to them the Compensation Plan and the Benefits Chart. Sending them messages in clear and easy-to-understand format by providing examples as necessary will clear up some of their questions.

- Emphasize to them that they need to consistently sponsor new affiliates to start building their network and therefore take advantage of the many benefits for taking this action such as maximizing their income through VersaPoints Matching, Direct Commissions and so on.

- By all means don't ever give up on them because of their current situation of not making progress in sponsoring affiliates. You'll never know, they might become the most valuable team members in your SFI organization.
