It's down to the order of the "presentation". If you have pitched TC and it's benefits and you are telling someone who is now interested in TC how it works, that is the time to now explain TCredits, the TC currency.

Explain the benefits of buying the credits so you can list, sell, buy and bid, and tell them what YOU do, take them to your TC page and show them how it works, let them see your page, what you are selling.

At this point it starts to speak for itself. After all, none of us knew what TCredits were before joining SFI and using TC, now we all use them!

Gift Cards have been called the best marketing tool we have ever had and by giving someone a Gift card they will sign up, for free, just to use the TCredits on the card, and then they will know exactly what they are - and will go on to buy more.

The first thing you must do is set one up yourself of course - practice what you preach!

Then show them how you use it. If you use the T Credit pack you not only get your qualifying VP you get much more for your money if it's an S/O.

Then show them what they need the credits for, maybe S Builder shares for building their team, maybe just to use TripleClicks for the auctions and products.

Maybe you are an IAHBE member and will recommend your affiliates also join, and that is done by S/O, and again qualifying VP.

Rather than "convince" them to do it, show them the benefits. Once they understand what the S/O will get them each month, they won't NEED convincing!

Good question. Yet this way of thinking can be along the lines of the "get rich quick" thinking - trying to get a large team of active affiliates quickly without spending the time and money to work it.

The statistics tell us that 1 in 200 signups will work the system properly. So you need to sign up 1000 affiliates to get your team of 5 Aces - and that takes a lot of time and money. Which it is supposed to, you are running a real business and you reap what you sow.

There is a danger here in thinking if you have inactive affiliates then "SFI is not working". Well if you are working the system then you are on your way to finding your actives who will also work it.

Obviously we should look for ways to improve, better ad sites, use S Builder, refine our ad campaign. However that also takes time.

The stats still tell us it is 1 in 200, that you need those 1000 signups to get that great team - and you will need to let them know this so they can do this, duplicate, persevere and don't quit.

After your 997th inactive affiliate that you can't motivate to work you may well give up. And you won't know if your 998th signup is the one who will make BTL in their first month. You may be less than one foot from the gold.

You have to go through a large QUANTITY before you find the QUALITY. The proverbial diamond in the rough.

Good question - how to turn a sceptic into a believer?

Are these prospects people in contact with you who are thinking of joining SFI but are sceptical for a reason? People who have tried schemes like Amway, Betterware, Herbal Life and have a negative view of affiliate marketing?

Proof of the pudding is in the eating we hear said (and often misquoted) and this is a time honoured adage.

Show them YOUR success, the success of your upline, the people who will be their immediate sponsor and leaders. The whole point of Duplication lies with "if I can do it, you can do it"

Show them they can join for free, that they never have to invest money (though do show them the benefits of S Builder and buying T Credits as soon as the time is right)

Once they have signed up for free and started doing Launch Pad, started to "earn while they learn", and they have made EA in their first month, they have a big incentive to go for it in month two.

Get them to the forum, get them on A2A to show them this is a real online community of people who are making real money, month in and month out.

Then there is the personal touch - what got YOU into SFI, what made YOU believe it was legit and real? Show that to your prospect.

A great marketer, and it may have been an SFI affiliate, once said:

"Ignorance is like a shadow. You cannot smash it, cut it, hit it, break it. The only way to destroy a shadow is shine a light on it"

The light of truth will destroy the shadow of ignorance - just show them the truth.

Interesting question, and how you interpret it depends on your answer.

"How do you deal with PSAs who rate you poorly?" - so does this mean you have more than one PSA who has done so?

If so, the answer lies with you. What did you do? Or more relevantly what did you NOT do? What has been lacking in your leadership and support that has caused a PSA, or several, to rate you badly?

How do you feel about how I have asked this? Does it make you upset? Do you feel defensive? If this was a forum thread would you be posting a reply to me to argue my points?

If so, then the answer lies with you.

You cannot change SFI and you cannot change the affiliates. So what you can change is YOU, what you are doing, how you are "supporting" them, or offering it, or how you are offering.

What do you get from your sponsor or, maybe more importantly, what do you want to get? What makes the perfect sponsor? Having decided what that is, what steps can you take to make YOU the perfect sponsor? Because that is the sponsor that affiliates will rate well.

What you do about it is up to you.

There is that saying Eagles don't flock, you find them one at a time, and that applies to leaders.

Don't follow a well worn path, set your own path and lead a trail for others to follow.
We hear that a lot as well.

Are you asking someone else to tell you what you need to do to be a Leader? Or are you looking for a way to find your own path, to set an example?
