What makes a safe list better than another is the response rate. Besides that, it's nice to have a suite of advertising and promotional material done for you. All you really have to do is cut and paste. Now if you want to perfect your craft then you can customize everything so that it works better for you. This is done through split testing one over another. Track for improvement. The safe list that produces the best overall results is declared the winner based on your advertising efforts.

Anytime that you are dealing with older members you should approach them from the standpoint of savings and retirement. At this stage in life, most people are about finish raising children, and their careers are stable. They are looking forward to what ever retirement savings they can muster. Moreover, since the economy has really slump in past years, many of these individuals are concerned about recouping losses from their savings because they've either lost them or had to dip into them.

Yes, you should promote participation in Pricebenders to your team. The main reason that you should promote Pricebenders to your team is because it builds the executive pool and the larger the executive pool the more shares can be earned by EAs. This encourages your team to maintain EA at the least because you have to be EA or higher to benefit from the executive pool.

Another benefit of Pricebenders is more AVP and SVP. Members that participate in Pricebenders earn up to 500 additional

The best thing you can do for your PSA is to allow them the space to learn from their own mistakes. Help them when them reach out to you. Offer them your assistance and guidance. Show them that you are a leader. Listen to their concerns and empathize with their plight.

New affiliates have the best chance for success because they can glean from the collective knowledge of so many wonderful tools and resources. Back when I joined SFI, many of the tools and resources we have now were not available to us. What does this mean? You should see it clearly as their are many Platinum Team Leaders who have been in SFI for less than 1/2 the time that I've been in! Am I jealous? Honestly . . . no. They are the proof in the pudding that SFI works and is now better than

This is a good question and I must say that you must first send the communication and they must acknowledge recent in reply. Without dialogue between you, you can't get their attention. If the email for the sfi mailer has not been white listed then your team mail is not even reaching them.

In this case, use your personal email and copy the email address from the genealogy and try to get the conversation going. If the email is not deliverable then you will not be able to reach them

Seeing is believing so the proof is always in the pudding. People spend their lives trying to achieve financial security and most never do. It's not because it is not possible. Everyone knows that it is possible since we all know someone who we would consider wealthy. Unfortunately most people don't believe that wealth is meant for anyone who is willing to do what it takes. It's not about luck or fortune as much as it is doing the right thing, at the right time, long enough to get the right

When you get new PSAs, it is especially important to teach them how you promote for your SFI business. Most people don't know how to promote and many more don't know the basics of computers. So may I suggest that you inquire concerning the exact proficiency level of your PSAs. A total novice will benefit from studying a basic introduction to computers. More advance users will not need this support. So find out.

Once you know where your PSAs stand, recommend the methods you use that

I know that I have achieve some success in SFI and TripleClicks because I am a leading ECA and my SFI commissions are growing. Yet, profit is not the only measure of success. What about the success of others? A better measurement of your success is how many people you help and inspire to grow their SFI business.

Therefore, I'd say the real measure of your success will be determined by how many people are you helping to grow. Every successful businessman/businesswoman leads a group
