Hello Jovan,

I think it is important to reach out to your new sign ups,
as soon as possible. I use the ECards for this.
I click on their name in Genealogy, then open their VP Ledger
and send a Welcome ECard based on their activity.
Just a quick welcome note, maybe a reminder of the 200 VP bonus
and how to achieve it.
Maybe, mention of a contest or reward.
I follow with a Group Welcome Email to any signups at the end of each day.

Hi,

Some of us are new to Internet Marketing and may not have
a handle yet on how to write a good text message for advertising.

In my opinion, the best text ads are the ones that say the least and catch
your attention the most.
In other words, great text ads are short, attention grabbing and to the point.

A text as short as "Now is the time to start!", may be all you need,
if you are in the right niche market.

Use the text

Well Paul, I find this question interesting because,
I consider A2A friends those fellow affiliates I would like to meet,
be friends and share experiences with.
I do not look upon their friendship for guidance, support or assistance.
You have your Sponsors, Co-Sponsors, the SFI website, the Forum and Support for "support and assistance".

It is good to surround yourself with all levels of good people to have a rapport with.
My best advise is to

Hello William,

It is not a secret, you stand out from the crowd by being different.
It is not necessary to be very different.

Sometime your personality is what sells you the most. It will be reflected in your actions.
Being honest, confident, knowledgeable and skilled all show up in your
work and the way you present yourself.
Often, it may be in the way you present a catchy ideas, song, picture, video,
well written Email, text or advertisement.

There is no reason you cannot make a successful start in SFI
with a limited budget or even no budget.

Once you have studied the program, learn where all the tools and materials are
and develop a program to follow daily.
Everything you need is there, you just need to take advantage of it.

-Follow your To-Do List.
-Start promoting with Free Classified Ads, Social Sites, Traffic Lists, Safelists,
offline promotions (Flyers, Personal contact) for starters.

Sometime you have to just go for it and post anywhere you can think of.
I have found luck posting my flyers in windows of small retail outlets (with permission).
Give a Gift Card to the store owner to promote their acceptance.
On vehicles in retail parking lots, on busy shopping days.
This is when most are looking for a good deal.
Bulletin boards in Libraries, Supply stores, markets, bus stops, trolley or train stations,
to name a few.
Best is street fairs, arts

Finding content is as easy as doing a web "search"
on the topic you are interested in.
Finding good content requires reading the material
and pulling out what you think has value.

You can start by following blogs of Internet Marketers
who have been around for a while.

Information sites like Wikipedia are a good source.
The internet is a huge free library and without taking
time for research and discovery,

My best advise here is to keep it simple.
Most people are not impressed with a busy card.

I suggest:
1)A nice logo and company name

2)Your Name

3)A very brief memorable title or subject line.
ie: Home Internet Business Entrepreneur or SFI Executive Affiliate and Sponsor
ie: MLM at its best, Home Biz Opportunity
(just ideas for reference, make up your own)

4)Contact Info (Website URL,Blog,Phone,Email, etc.)

5)A
