If all attempts to contact your sponsor fail, you have to remember the most important fact - this is your business. There are many other SFI sources available to obtain the information / help you require eg the Forum, a3a friends, Launchpad, SFI basics and the Training option on your home page.

The most important lesson however to learn from an unresponsive sponsor, is not to fall into the samr trap - be always available for your Team and lead by example.

If this happens, you have the most potent marketing tool EVER at your disposal. All you really need to do now, is to give an account of your journey since joining SFI, and I guarantee you will have a SFI joining rate second to none. Be enthusiastic and make sure to highlight both positive and negative aspects of your experience. Do not over-elaborate - the simple truth goes a long way.

In all human beings we are dealing with mindset. All sign-ups will have a particular mindset when they join - positive or negative. Mindset is easily determined by viewing the initial performance of every sign-up. The positive person will start immediately, is willing to try things on his/her own, and it will not be necessary for the sponsor to put in a huge motivating effort. The negative person will sit back and wait for something to happen and needs constant motivation to do even the most basic of actions.

We can shift from quantity to quality by changing the mindset from negative to positive. SFI has the most comprehensive training and support system that I have seen in businesses of this kind and I consider it to be one of the market leaders. All the aids available can be used to change mindset, but not before the following is understood by the sceptics : This is a business.

A business is acquired to make money and needs two main inputs from the owner for success - time and resources (money) A business will not grow and prosper if both of these elements are not present. Business analysts say that a good, solid business will return your capital investment in 5 years, provided it is properly managed.

If the available resources within SFI are used consistently and correctly, this 5 year period can be shortened considerably.

Now for the question how to shift from quantity to quality

1. Ensure that all sign-ups understand fully what a business is and require, before moving on to practical matters.

2. Leaders should lead by example and not underestimate their developmental role. Not all sign-ups will be familiar with an internet business.

3. Work out a training program for all new affiliates in which they are taken through the process step by step.

4. Continually motivate and reward.

5. Build a personal relationship with your team.

5. Lastly, leaders must ensure that the quality is maintained by being quality leaders at all times.

After joining SFI a little less than a year ago now, I started off with a bang and reached EA status within a few hours. With the little knowledge I had at that stage, I tried my very best, but was very disappointed with the results at the end of Month 1.

I then started comparing my relative positions on the various leaderboards with other affiliates who joined more or less the same time as I. There seemed to be a lot who made much better progress, and I started wondering what I was doing wrong. I went through all the training material and other available resources in SFI, frantically looking for THE answer why I was doing (in my view) so badly. I even contacted an a2a friend who was doing well, to try and find out what his secret to success was.

Then I read a post in the Forum one day that basically said "take your time, maintain your own pace and do the best you can" I then realised that we are all individuals, each with our own strong and weak points and I learned then that I had to go on doing the things I was good in, and work hard at improving the things I was not good in.

I am still working hard at my shortcomings, and I don't look at the Scoreboard that much any more, but what I've seen there, is that many of the shining stars that so bothered me in the beginning, have now fainted away.

I think it was Winston Churchill who said in a speech at the beginning of the WW2 : "We will never surrender"

Nor would I.

In my view SECRET No 1 : Become EA as soon as possible to qualify for more privileges. Forget about money to start with - remember you are starting a business and you are actually in a process of investing "capital" Think medium to long term!!!
SECRET No 2 : Establish a standing order of 1500 VP per month - my suggestion would be IAHBE which would earn you 1500 VP per month and keep your EA status.
SECRET NO 3 : Duplicate by getting 5 PSI which you can train to do the exact steps outlined above. There are various ways of doing this but I would suggest a Standing order for PSA in the S builder co-op. In short - do and train your downline to do what you have done. Result??? a possible USD3000 pm which can only grow if you keep on duplcating!!! I am three weeks in SFI and I believe this is the best opportunity I have come accross to become financially independent from your own home behind your own PC. All the best - I hope i have shed a lot of light on your question. GOD bless!!! Ben Lubbe
Proudly SFI BTL
