As with anything you promote, you would want to pick something you are passionate about!

If you study the available marketing lessons on the internet that are about building a successful website, you will see that nearly all of them say to pick something you are already enthusiastic about.

When you do that, when you promote something you really like, something you can talk knowledgeably about, you will find it is not work at all - you are doing something fun! You will discover

How can I make my digital TripleClicks TCards look more professional than just copying and emailing the redemption codes?

There are a couple of ways to do this - the first is obviously by using one of the eCards SFI gives us to send to people. It would be easy to pick a card then put on your explanation of what it is and the redemption code on the inside.

If you are somewhat creative you could even design an eCard of your own using a paint program or even a commercial program that helps you design all different kinds of cards - you could put on a logo or even embed your picture. It all depends on who the

Unfortunately, there is no way to guarantee that anyone will receive what they ordered. This is as true of TripleClicks as it is of Amazon or eBay. There are always some transactions that do not go through the way they should with any online market.

What you can guarantee, however, is that TripleClicks is an amazingly ethical company and should the potential customers order not be delivered, TC will do everything possible to correct the situation.

This includes refunding

What is the best way to help affiliates in my group who have limited access to a computer?

A lot of the correct answer to this question depends on what "limited access" actually means. Does the affiliate not own a computer and can only go online when he or she is in a library or at friends house who does have one?

Or, does this mean that there is a computer in the home, but he or she only has the ability to use it for an hour a day? a week?

I think the best advice to give for any of these scenarios has a lot to do with goals and time management.

How can I ensure that, when I retire, the SFI business I have spent years building continues to grow and provide income for my beneficiaries?

SFI is a business like any other business in this sense - it will continue to produce and grow even if you retire from it as long as you have developed and nurtured an active, passionate downline.

These are the folks you have recruited and taught, assisted and helped through the years - these are your partners. Like any other business in the world, as long as your partners remain interested and active your business will continue on.

What is the best use for the MRP I earn?

There are literally thousands of answers to this question - practically any product on TripleClicks can be paid for with MRP's.

With a little patience you can build up quite a number of MRP's for just doing everyday tasks on the SFI site. Once you have a lot of them, you can obviously buy a higher quantity of items or just one item that has a lot of value.

As said previously, many times, a lot of us use them to buy TCredits and get VP's. This is a good plan.

Since everyone learns differently, this answer will be very individual for each person.

Try to identify your own learning style - do you learn best by reading, taking notes and studying? Or, do you do better to just jump in with both feet and learn as you go?

SFI is pretty much set up for any type of learner out there. They are well aware of the amount of learning needed and how to do this with the least risk of burn out.

Of course, as a brand-new affiliate, you

I don't think there will be a wrong answer to this question -- we all love the same thing and we all love different things about SFI!

But since you asked, I will tell you - what I love about SFI is the personal involvement of the CEO, Gery Carson.

Other CEO's and top management types are involved in their programs as well - and I like those too, but Gery lends a very personal slant to his involvement that keeps me believing in this company and it's employee's.

Should a person go for the rank of Team Leader if they don't yet have a team?

This question is very similar to one that was recently asked and I will answer it in the same way - until you have an active team, it is pointless to spend your time becoming a TL.

Your time is better spent in preparation to become an excellent sponsor and Team Leader. You can do this by educating yourself. Complete the Launch Lessons, your daily to-do tasks (red tabs) and all of the other available trainings, especially how to become an outstanding sponsor.

What do you do about PSAs that start off great but then suddenly become completely inactive?

Truthfully, the only thing I've ever been able to do is to continue to try and keep the lines of communication open.

If one of my PSA's suddenly 'disappears' I will start out with an E-Card and ask if everything is ok, if there is anything I can do - that type of message.

When this happens I am truly concerned about them - is there a family crisis? an illness? has there been an accident? I don't ask to be nosy, but because I am worried.
