Congratulations! You have taken the first step towards making it: You have recognized that what you have attempted so far, has not worked.
Now take the second step: realize you cannot keep doing what have done so far and that you need to change both WHAT you are doing and the WAY you are doing it.
Third, ask those in your up-line, at the Forum, F2F and other senior Team Leaders, preferably from your country or geographic location, WHAT they have done to become successful recruiters and HOW they go about doing it.
Ask, learn and apply. As you keep trying relevant and proven approaches and techniques, success will be just a matter of time. And then it will be your turn to help others who will contact you to learn how you became so successful.
You have already taken the first step. Only 2 more steps to take to your success and prosperity.
All my very best!

How can you build your SFI business on a tight budget?

1) Have a definite plan. For example; decide you will invest only the money you make from SFI, back into SFI. (This is only possible with this business)
2) Collect all the VP from daily, weekly, monthly and one time actions. In the first two months you can easily get to EA & EA2 status without buying or investing in anything.
3) Promote SFI & TripleClicks through your gateway on your facebook page, twitter, LinkedIn etc and any other free advertising sites you can find. PSA & ECA will sign up or contact you.
4) Participate in all the free competitions on SFI daily.
5) Your first pay check should reach you in 3 to 4 months.
6) Then you wont have a tight budget anymore. Use the money to reinvest into your SFI business and watch it fly high.
7) Look after your SFI business well, and it will return the favor.
All my very best.

Which marketing methods should we be recommending to our new PSAs?

Every one of us have a 'circle of influence'(family, close friends etc)
Get new PSA started off by talking to 'their circle of influence' about the 'new business' they have begun.
Beyond the fact that it is 100% free, I have found over my 10 months at SFI, those who signed up from my circle of influence are the most active, loyal and long standing PSAs I have. They have helped me get to BTL and stay there and some of them have got to BTL themselves.
Once your new PSA have signed up a few of there closest group, then guide them into social media, free advertising sites and maybe some paid advertising IF their cash-flows permit.
Be careful to keep them motivated by the results they achieve. This will generate the greatest amount of self motivation to keep investing more time, energy and resources into their SFI business, and thereby into yours too.
All my very best as you keep building winners out of your PSAs.

How do I put together a successful marketing campaign?

Here's what I would do:
FIRST - Define what 'YOU' mean by 'SUCCESSFUL' - What do you want to see accomplished by your marketing campaign;
new AFF sign ups? - if so how many? from what parts of the world?
new ECA referrals? - if so how many? from where?
my present team do more & move up the leadership ladder? - quantify, numbers & levels
SECOND - Look at these three areas to make your plan:
1) What are SFI's marketing tools and strengths?
2) What are your own strengths and resources?
3) Where is the audience with the greatest potential for the results you seek?
THIRD - Make your plan based on the answers to these questions, allocate your resources, fix time lines & deadlines and finally set up your feed back and review processes.
FINALLY - Action your plan, review your performance, adjust, refine and re-start.
Success is yours for the taking.
All my very best.

How can we reassure our downline to continue their activity with SFI after the recent cyber-attack?

The best reassurance to your downline is, as it has always been, your own actions.
You should address this matter ONLY if any of them seek your advice on it.
The reason I say this is that Gery Carson and SFI management have done one of the best jobs I've seen in managing and getting stronger through a cyber-attack. Their commitment, clarity, transparency and speed of response has been nothing short of phenomenal.
SFI's response in itself has already provided every reassurance that any member can possibly need. And that is way better than anything that you or I can ever convey to our teams.
We are all PRIVILEGED to be part of an organization that is this sharp, caring and ready to invest the vast resources in time and money needed to protect and strengthen its people and operations.
Hats off to Gery and his fabulous team!

Hi ~FIRSTNAME~,
So glad you decided to become an Affiliate with SFI.
At SFI remember you are never alone. As an important member of my team, I am available to you at any point to clarify, answer queries or just 'chat'. I am not just your Sponsor but also your personal success mentor and coach. I know you are really going to enjoy building your business with SFI and realize your goal as we work together.
This is NOT a get-rich-overnight scam or the usual false promises kind of operation. You will need to apply yourself and be consistent and you will make it BIG. It is also quite simple to follow and master as the training and information sharing is excellent.
To get started, just go to your home page and click on the RED TAB that says: TO-DO-LIST and start completing the tasks requested. You will score VersaPoints for each completed task. Click all the red tabs and complete the tasks on each one to score the points on offer. Score as much as you can today as you get a 'FAST TRACKER' badge if you score 500 or more points on your first day. Go ahead and upload a good picture of yourself and complete your profile too. You will score points for these as well.
Initially your focus will be to get to 1500 points within the month and become an Executive Affiliate. You can do this by completing the tasks required, AND YOU DON'T HAVE TO SPEND ANY MONEY AT ALL.(Read and learn as much as you can for a start)
If you would like to share SFI with your friends & contacts, you need to send them your own link to sign up on (so they get into your team) If you need help with this let me know and I will guide you.
Check in daily and focus, be consistent and work hard daily: Success is on the way. Let us work together to make it big for ourselves and our entire team.
Welcome and all my very best as you build your internet business with SFI.

When I am fully self-employed with SFI, and someone asks what I do for a living, what do I tell them?
Ryan Jayatunga, Aff (Sri Lanka)
2/5/2014 1:17 am
Affiliate since: 09/10/2013, Power Rank: 99999999
Tell them this:
"I'm so glad you asked, because it is one of the best things that has happened in my life.
Like most people you see, I too was trapped in a regular job, until I heard of SFI.
Have you heard of it?
It's one of the most fascinating business models I've ever seen. What's great about it is that you can work from the comfort of your own home and build an international business for yourself because it is Internet based and markets over 110,000 products from 6500 plus e-commerce partners from around the world through one of the largest cyber-malls owned by SFI, called TripleClicks.
SFI is in its 16th year now. My only regret is that I didn't hear about it sooner.
More than 2 million people from 165 plus countries have joined SFI to date and the numbers are growing. It's simple, it's fun and it enables you to build a real, successful business for yourself.
This is now my full time job. I and my family have all that we need, plus I can help others both to start their own businesses with SFI and to guide them to achieve the success I enjoy today.
Would you like to know more?"

There are three things you need to be the best SFI Affiliate or for that matter to be THE BEST at anything: PASSION, PERSISTENCE, PERSEVERANCE.
PASSION: Carry it in your heart, not just your head. Do everything within your power to 'know' all you can, 'do' all you can . . . and then more. And do it as 'soon' as you can. Give it your all, always. Make it Your Dream that keeps you from sleeping.
PERSISTENCE: Keep at it continuously. Do not slack or ease up. Do not let anything distract or deter you in you pursuit of your Dream.
PERSEVERANCE: Through every challenge and difficulty NEVER GIVE UP. When you feel you just can't make, just place one foot in front of the other towards your Dream. Refuse to get discouraged or disgruntled by anything you encounter along the way.
These are the 3Ps of being the best at anything. Be it. Do it. and you will be the best you can be at it. All my very best my friend.

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?

Affiliate since: 09/10/2013, Power Rank: 99999999
Sure. Offline marketing can be as effective as online marketing for SFI. Just keep in mind these few things.
1) SFI is an online business - so offline marketing should be used to supplement and enhance your online marketing efforts.
2) Offline marketing will be more effective in terms of conversions & sign-ups, but online marketing will be more efficient in terms of cost per contact & will deliver a far wider reach too (global).
3) Always work with your strengths - add the power of your offline marketing experience/ capabilities to your online efforts.
With your offline marketing strengths supporting your online efforts, you will be well on your way to leadership and success in next to no time. All my very best.

When you don't have to ask this question anymore!
When you are successful at SFI believe me, you will know it.
You will know it from the money you make each month, from the number of Team Leaders you have on your team and in your down-line, from the number of badges on your HomePage and above all . . .
. . . from the warm, glowing feeling of well being and success you feel within you.
Keep keeping on and you will get there for sure.
