Great question.
I believe that to be successful in any endeavor you must have the desire to want to
succeed. Keeping this in mind, you must study your PSA/CSA.

Measure their level of activity;

Are they maintaining communication with you?
Are they responding to your advice?
Are they following through with good activity?
Are they using all the free methods of advertising?
Are they acquiring PSAs?
Can you verify their above actions?

My best advise to get your affiliates more active in TripleClicks is to
make them aware of all the advantages of being involved with the Store.

Use your weekly group message system, Stream messages, and Team Message system
to not only keep them apprised of the best methods to use the TC Store,
but, to how best to use it for themselves.

For example:
1. How to use their TConnect page to sell personal items.
2. How to search for products that will be useful

Hi Christine,

Support can come in other ways.
Communication is key to success in your downline.
Be consistent with your weekly Emails.
Mix it up with support messages, informational updates , newsworthy spots and
motivational inspiration.
I am not aware of anyone who does not enjoy an occasional recognition message
for their achievements or progress.
Let it be known you are there to help in any way you can.

I think the answer should be "why not".

If you have family members who are interested in earning and learning about Internet Marketing by all means. Maybe someone in your family already has a marketing skill or
two and will do well under your tutelage.
SFI is a great learning facility for young and old alike.

I do think it would be an easy sell for you to prospect your various family members
once you yourself have achieved some level of success.

Know your strengths and weaknesses.
Have the desire to learn, to increase your knowledge and development.

I believe my personal determination and ability to be persistent is definitely
a dominate reason for my success.
But, the most important factor is Knowledge.
You must have the desire to build your knowledge and you can overcome any obstacle.

The beauty of the SFI program is the format and availability of the knowledge,
tools and materials they give

My opinion is generating active PSAs will provide the quickest income.
However, I think it would depend on your experience and expertise.
You may find it easier to generate ECA accounts, help promote their
stores and products.

If you are new to Internet Marketing, I would start where you feel most comfortable
and work the area you feel you can generate the most success
in the beginning stages of your SFI business.

If your strengths lie in building

Using Skype as a communications tool with your team members has its pros and cons.

Pros:
Using Skype can be useful to gain the confidence of your new Affiliate members to gain their respect and trust.
It is a great tool to extend an ongoing friendship with your active downline.
Some Affiliates will appreciate the one-on-one contact to understand the topic of discussion.
And, it is a motivational tool if you are willing to spend a little one on one time with a struggling

Not an easy task, to be sure.

I make good use of the Team Message icon in the Genealogy page and on the Movers Page.
I use it to respond to the following;

-Check your active affiliates progress every day, on the Movers Page. Take advantage of every opportunity to recognize their progress and achievements.
-Mention or complement a recent contribution in the Forum.
-Review their General Ledger, look for actions they may have overlooked or missed.
-Offer special

The best method to attract and convince people to join SFI is to pursue those who are looking
for a business opportunity that will provide a secure foundation,
history of success, tools and training and support base to bring their dreams to a reality.

SFI is an opportunity with a long term business history. They provide all of the above and more, including continuous program upgrades, multiple income streams and more.

In all your advertising efforts, it is best to

Hello Vickie,
The answer is fairly simple. When you opened your Auto Responder account,
you should have been offered a test run using your email address or an
Email address of your choice.
You may wish to include your email address to monitor the mailings,
or set up Special email address for this purpose.
Hope this helped.
