My best strategy is the direct contact. However it would help tremendously if you first become ECA. Then you would have first hand knowledge of the Frequently Asked Questions and the sign up procedure.

Meet your prospect at a mutually agreed time. Be prepared and leave nothing to chance. With your personal knowledge of ECA business, you can answer all questions with your poscect and share some of your own experiences.

Because you have your own ECA store you can actually

Hey, the fact that you have been here for one full year is a success in itself. Congratulations. Now, you have to remember that this is your business. You will get out of it whatever you put into it. Therefore, I think you need to work out a detailed plan of where you would like to be in the next three to five years, then break that into smaller achievable goals.

Each month review your progress of the last month. If the month was not so good, you should immediately scrutinize the

“ If you don’t use it you will lose it” One of the best reasons is that SFI keeps the brain occupied. For those who are retired, there is a need to keep the brain busy! SFI involves being focused.

Success requires commitment. Patience, persistence and perseverance are crucial to make success happen and these are the qualities that most 50+ old persons have developed over time. They are self-driven and self-discipline and thy augurs well for any business. They have the ability

One benefit of the S-Builder Co-op over the member’s co-op is that it allows persons of even modest means to participate in large-scale advertising campaigns and share in the results without a significant investment.

If you lack experience in marketing and your time is limited, this is a good option for the affiliate. Additionally it is quite affordable. One unit costs as little as 72 cents per day.

A member’s unit could be more costly and there will be no way of you knowing

Long term goals are important but vary for each individual. Once we set a long term goal, our subconscious mind will never “erase” it. (Alberta School of business) No matter where we live, what we do and how old we are, our subconscious will continue actively searching for ways to achieve our long term goals. Having long term goals allows us to see beyond today’s work and keep our motivation high.

To set a long term goal, take a moment to think about your future in 5 years from

Co-op advertising is a popular and very powerful method of advertising in which two or more people share the cost of advertising and the resulting benefits. It allows you and your team members to pool your dollars together to advertise, and then share in the resulting leads generated. You can participate in the S-Builder Co-op, or you can create your own co-op.

The easiest way to set up a co-op is to use your Genealogy Report to select affiliates you would like to invite to participate
