When people think of sales they think about the worse case sales jobs. Those aren't sales those are peddlers. Sales is when we find out what people want and need; because we asked them and they told us. So being a good sales person means being good at asking questions. Being good at listening to answers. Then we introduce clients to the product or program that will give them the benefit they desire. So never think of yourself as a sales person ... you are a problem solver!

I have a large downline, but few are advertising SFI. How can I get them to start advertising and marketing SFI?

The question of getting your downline to advertise SFI may be best answered by help them to build their list.

A much better method and a proven method is to advertise a lead capture page and build your list. Then using auto responder series of Emails you give those subscribers something of value tips, tricks...and start to introduce SFI

One of the biggest misconceptions about TE advertising is generate traffic to your program web site. This does not work. What works is promoting a tool

The simple answer BOTH. Help them reconnect with their line of sponsorship. Show them where to find their upline leaders and how to communicate. Answer their questions, or better show them how to find the answers. The goal here is to develop people with a business mindset, but most will come to us with an employee mindset. Be a resource for them but teach them to become resourceful.
