Instead of answering to this question directly i would like to say that every methods have its own advantages and disadvantages.
It also depends upon the geographical factor. What is best for americans may not be best for Indians.
What is best for Africans may not be feasible for indians.
So you get friends from your country through a2a and try to find out what is the best.
Normally paypal and payoneer are used to be the best way to get paid.
The charges are minimal and the

My idea is not to discourage them. If they are able to get any ranks let them climb up.
They will automatically understand how they can maintain and how difficult it is to climb up without a team. So by second month end they will know it as tough.

There are good benefits for TL. The share of second home csas are worth to get. And the shiny team leader badge is good for advertising and pronouncing. So let them taste that and enjoy the benefits. Also the new plan encourages the affiliate

Thanks a lot for this question. There is no proper guidelines from SFI for this. This has been extensively discussed in the forum. I wish Mr.Gery would come out with solid statement.
As far as my understanding, your ECA products and service can not be promoted within the SFI affiliates other than your PSAs and CSAs.
But what i feel is the products(physical and digital) should be allowed to advertised through our stream and team mail.
Co-op should not be promoted in any way if unless

There is nothing in our hands. Whatever you feed only the thirsty one drinks.
What we have to do is, make sure we tell and focus them all the benefits from this program.
Explain with the latest TL plan and compensation plan.

Make them understand sales is the heart of this business like any other business. The advantage here is, we have products in 1000s to promote and get attractive commissions.
Pricebenders are very attractive and addictive for people out there. Tell

I have used it with my friends and family, both as one to one call as well as conferences
Skype features:
Skype is available on Windows, Mac and Linux as well as Apple is, Google Android and Symbian mobile device operating systems.
For free subscribers. For video calls, it’s only up to 3, including the host. For voice only conference calls, you can join up to 25 online Skype users.
For paid subscribers. A video call could have up to 10 participants, including the host. For audio

Its good you present where they have to start with.
Use the Start, Basics and launch pad links in the first mail.
Focus on fast track benefits and E365 benefits.
Along with this tell them to score at least 1500 versa points and send a mail to request for free tcredits and a GC for 2 USD to buy W3 Kit.
This works out well for me.

A lengthy mail will definitely make them skip or feel bored.

SFIM Instant messaging is used to communicate with the team. But in practical I use to communicate with the affiliates who are available when I am online.

It is very effective when you received the message from SFI, stating that you have sponsored a new affiliate.
When we receive that message we can confirm that the affiliate is online and we can use the chat to welcome him and remind him about the fast track at first. Then we can send the video link about the new system and scoring

A splash page (or splash screen) is:
An initial Web site page used to capture the user's attention for a short time as a promotion or lead-in to the site home page or to tell the user what kind of browser and other software they need to view the site.
The advantage of a splash page is that you can create effects or provide information that is only needed once a visit.

Our sfi4.com is the best we can use to attract new affiliates.
