ECA allows you to be an online vendor so that you can open up a store for free, in other places online or brick and mortar you have to invest lots of money just to open the store and then in a building you have to pay lots of expenses such as utilities, and rent. Nome of this happens on tripleclicks. You get a free webpage, registration is free, and then you start listing and people from different countries in the world will see your store and they will buy from you,so there is more benefit than just making money because your customers will like what you sell and they will spread the word about your store so that others can check it out.
SFI provides you three main income streams but ECA also provides you additional income because you make more money to invest on Tripleclicks in order to get versapoints when you buy products, you also allow your downline and opportunity to make money when they promote your products and generate sales from your store, and your upline also makes money when you sell your products because they get lifetime royalties and they get 100 VP for every product that you list.
I forgot to mention that being an ECA allows you to sell products that can benefit your downline or other SFI affiliates and they can buy products from your store and they earn money from the VP and matching VP that they accumulate from TC (Your Store).

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

Reassuring your downline is about letting them know that SFI is safe because, they already fixed the issue firstly,secondly every affiliate is required to change their passwords, thirdly you should encourage them to read their emails, stream and the SFI news for updates, on Security and other milestones of the affiliate center.
I personally do not need any reassurance because, I read the emails and found out about the cyber attack and I kept to checking the SFI website to see if I could log in until I was finally able to reset my password and I even checked my bank account which is intact.In the affiliate center I noticed that my Daily VP Streak badge was intact because they were giving me my daily vp I also saw that I still have my commissions intact. The point is SFI is doing their part to take care of our wellbeing but it is also up to us as affiliates to do our part and continue with our daily activities.
The best reassurance is the example that you set when they see you log in every day and do your daily work, and the fact that you still email them to see how they are doing, and if they are able to log in and do their activities will be enough reassurance for them because they see your confidence, and the trust that you are putting here on SFI. My point is that you look after them and show that you care about their success and understand how the feel and you show them by continuing your work on SFI that they too can also do it.
:) Happy EASTER!

How can I be a successful student AND teacher in SFI at the same time?

You must Become a "LEADER"! Why do I say this? The reason is that in order to succeed in SFI you have to take the time to read the prolific knowledge resourced provided to all affiliates in both the affiliate center and other websites on the Internet.
To be a successful Student and Teacher you have to have an open mind because this will allow you to have a better understanding when it comes to making money Online. You must never assume that you know everything and accept the fact that there is always something new to learn so this is the first thing you must learn and also teach others who truly wish to learn from you.
Please read Rule number 8 in the rules of success. The title is " Leaders Are Readers"
https://www.sfimg.com/ROS/ROSLeadRead
I will now give you a nice example. New signups need help getting Started so what are you going to do? The answer is the answer is in the red tabs on the homepage so what you are going to do ? One important thing to do is read about getting started in the forum to learn and then what you learn you will then post your own answer in the forum for your newbies to read and then you go to the ask sc tab to look for questions related to accumulating VersaPoints and then you will email your new affiliates a newsletter about the importance of learning about SFI and then share the ask sc threads that you found.
To answer your question you have to learn by reading just as much as you can everyday and then you use what you learn to teach others. I must warn you please don't try to memorize instead you must make sure you understand fully what you have learned in order to put it into practice once you master it then you teach others and maintain communication in order to know if your affiliates are understanding you and doing it correctly.
To be a real teacher you must not just give them things to read and then expect them to learn it by themselves, I mean this is a real turn off your affiliates will hate this. They want you to take your time to go over things with them like the to do list or if they need help advertising in the classifieds then write some text ads for them and then give them a list of online websites to post them in and also teach them how to write their own ads don't just give them a bunch of articles to read and tell them " take it home and learn it because that shows you really don't care .
I hope It works for you.

What are the things that most make you proud to be an SFI affiliate?

Personally what makes me proud is my persistence, because other people in my shoes quit in no time flat because they get overwhelmed or they do not see any cash flowing. I have been here on SFI almost a year now and I have encountered quite a few rough patches in terms of personal finances but I continued on SFI always finding something to do in order to get VersaPoints and also to do advertising.
My personal experience with advertising is also something that I am proud of because in the beginning I would get frustrated because I was advertising but no one would respond but I continued doing it and after 9 months I started getting three TC members, I am even proud of the simplefact that I made it to the E365 finals. The point is I never would have gotten this far if I would have given up longtime ago.
I am also proud of being a Top Author because right now I have up to 100k votes but I got a message on my TC email from an affiliate in Venezuela telling me that my answers here on ASK SC are very helpful for novitiates like him because they are simple and easy to understand and they are very appropriate for each question being asked.
Being a team leader is something that I am very proud of because I am qualified to help new members get started and also help them to accumulate the highest vp possible, I know because I have a CSA who really likes me, she says that I am friendly and easy to approach so that makes me feel good inside, and that is something that money can't buy. Money can buy affiliates on TC but it cannot buy their blessings.

How can I help a PSA become a Team Leader when he or she does not have a credit card?

I am Bronze team Leader and I do not have a Credit Card but I do have a prepaid Debit Card and the Payoneer Debit Card. In order to be a Team Leader you have to have to have a minimum of 1500 and a mximum of 2000 Sales VP to qualify so for the sales VP I have a 3000 VP Standing order that I use my Debit Card with the Mastercard logo on it.
My best suggestion is the following you must help your downline generate a $30.00 commission minimum so that they can get the Payoneer Debit Card and use that for the Standing Orders, I think you should also find out if TCurrency can be used for this as well.
Selling products is the other option so that they can accumulate the necessary Sales VP every month.
Action Points: you must have at least 1000 VP as well so to solve this issue That is something obtained by working everyday on the to do list.

What is the role of the TripleClicks Executive Pool in the compensation I can earn with SFI?

6/1/2015 8:50 pm
Affiliate since: 12/06/2012, Power Rank: 99999999
You earn money from the TripleClicks executive pool by accumulating VersaPoints every month. In order to earn one share of the executive pool you need to have at least 1500 VP which equals 1500 Shares so this may earn you about 50cents in commissions.
The Executive pool is an income stream that SFI provides to all affiliates in order to earn money. SFI sells products on TripleClicks on a monthly basis so 45% of all the earnings get put into this pool.
An affiliate accumulates Action VersaPoints from the to do list and red tabs, sales points are earned when we buy and sell products available at the TripleClicks Store.
To earn even more shares we must sponsor affiliates and build a team of active people who work so when they accumulate VersaPoints we earn Matching VersaPoints which equals Matching shares from the executive pool. Example: Your team of 10 generations earn 40 thousand VP then you will get 40 thousand shares of the executive pool so you will earn about 30 dollars in commissions.
so all your money comes from the TripleClicks Store. SFI provides many ways to make money but it all boils down to earning money from the TripleClicks Store.

What is a good letter that I can send to potential affiliates who desire to know more about SFI?

Writing a letter to potential affiliates is about sharing your personal experience with SFI, telling others (make a long story short, informative and to the point) your success story because in any business you are the best marketing tool, when people hear your success story and see that you really make money then they will immediately want in.
I have seen in many advertisements for products or services customer testimonials and they always show a before and after, so what I am getting at here is that in your letter you tell your potential affiliates about yourself before you joined SFI and after you joined SFI.
In this letter you also tell them how the program is put together, in otherwords if I were to compare this business to a computer I would tell you technical information about the Hardware and the Software put together and I would tell you the programs it has, the hard drive Capacity, the unique features that it has the other do not have so talking about this business is pretty much the same thing, you would talk about the ingredients or components that go together in this business etc...
I hope this advice serves you well.

Apart from the 125 TCredits pack, what other Standing Order product with 1500 VP would you suggest to replace IAHBE?

Affiliate since: 12/06/2012, Power Rank: 99999999
I also asked that same question because I used to have IAHBE to get 1500 VP and 100 TCredits to get 1200 VP so what I did was I replace IAHBE with the 125 TCredit pack so I recommend you just get another pack of TCredits which is the 100 Pack that way you get 225 TCredits every month. This month alone I was able to bid in the auctions and get more than 50 VP and I also use them in the knock out Trivia which I was not lucky to win but I got more member reward points and more VP as well.
You can also check out the PSA's to go to see if you how many signups you can purchase and get the 1500 VP. So that way you can build your downline team.

What do you say to an affiliate who thinks that doing the daily 1 VP actions is a waste of time?

Affiliate since: 12/06/2012, Power Rank: 99999999
You and every affiliate has to see the big picture! It is not about doing the daily activities but it is how they are doing them that determines if it is a waste of time or not.
Waste of time is collecting VP from the red tabs without actually reviewing them or just skimming through them. Why do I say this? VP determines the commissions you will make and will determine your Team Leader Rank but earning money and team leader rank is a waste of time because you are not learning anything without reading and studying.
Accumulating free VersaPoints from the red tabs gives you only 360 VP per month is a waste of time because you are not advertising so without this your business is dead and you will make no money this way. You need VersaPoints Matching to get the most out of this business so you must use the Marketing Materials contained in the Marketing Center and learn tips from the red tabs such as taking the time to read the forum which is a red tab! The other red tabs your affiliates shuld read is the Alerts Tab because they can get the latest news that is useful for learning how to get more VersaPoints and Matching VP by sales and Sponsoring, the Tips Tab allows them to get power Tips on sales Sponsoring and many more ways to help them make the most money.
In general the red tabs are more valuable than the VersaPoints themselves because there is allot of valuable information to read in order to learn the many ways to make money here, so what I am saying here is that if an affiliate is collecting 14 VP a day from the red Tabs without reading anything or clicking the blue links in each tab then of course they are wasting their time.
An archaeologist has to dig slowly and systematically in order to find hidden treasures so the SFI marketing center is full of hidden treasures but you have to take your time to fish them out.

What's best to sell at TripleClicks? Cheap things or more expensive/more valuable items?

You should sell a huge variety of both because the purpose of being an ECA is to sell products to large numbers of people living in different countries, so you have to bear in mind that you have people in many different financial conditions from dirt poor all the way to filthy rich. Have you seen the banner ads for TripleClicks? If you did then they say that Tripleclicks is a store for bargain hunters, looking for products that are sold cheaper than the prices sold elsewhere, so maybe I would say 50/50 half of your products should be expensive and valuable but you have to make sure that they are in demand and that people often buy these things. You must bear in mind that you are selling products to TC members and SFI affiliates, so you do not only consider the cost but also how much versapoint we affiliates will get from buying this product.
You should also sell some cheap products but when I say cheap I don't mean 99 cent products that do not last a week, but good quality products at low prices so I recommend selling ebooks that help SFI affiliates succeed on SFI, or other marketing tools for affiliates that you can sell for $1.00 to $5.00.
