Hi Vehbi,

Having received a few PSAs and CSAs that are not English reading or speaking makes a lot of difference, they work harder and do more then many of the affiliates that speak and read English!

To help your Non-English affiliates you need to:
1) Made sure they know there is a language translator on every page on TripleClicks
and SFI.
2) Take the time to change the group mailings, e-cards and, e-mails into their own
language.
3) Make sure

Hi Phyllida,

All of us have been recruiting since the day we could speak. We have all been making friends, trying to please or help others since we were born. So getting a person to listen to you and believe what you are saying is really not a hard thing to do. Specially if you tell the truth.

1) It's important to read and learn so you will be able to explain what SFI is, answer questions, and why you want them to join your team. Reviewing the Basics video, the Start and

Hi Gloria,

It all depends on your circumstances and which you think will be best to buy, either the S-Builder Co-op or PSAs To Go.

If you do not have a lot of time, money, or the experience to advertise for SFI affiliates, I believe the S-Builder Co-op would be the best choice because:
1) It allows team members to pool their dollars together to advertise.
2) For the low cost of $24.00 or $22.00 a month on standing order, you will
share in the results of the

Hi Himangshu,

When people ask me what I do, I always tell people that I'm a business owner.
I own a marketing company on the internet through a company called SFI.
I then ask them, "Have you ever thought about owning your own business?
Are you interested in being a business owner on the internet?"
If they are, but have no time for me to explain and show them my websites on my tablet, I set up a time that we can get together to talk about the business.

Hi Waldemar,

Which is better, sponsoring SFI affiliates or referring TripleClicks members should not be considered. To be a success, you need to be doing both.
Your income comes from both websites and depends on the combined profits.
This is why SFI is so successful and you can earn a large income by understanding the training program, the compensation plan and your benefits.

Your Direct Commission is what you receive from the orders your personally sponsored affiliates

I don't believe there are any differences on how to approach prospective ECAs in any country. Whether it is a store owner or a person wanting to make extra income, I believe this is a dream of every person in all countries.

My suggestion is that you read the training "ECA Training Guide" at:

Hi Erica,

The best way to use the Affiliate Manager for your PSA and CSA Snapshot is to start off by writing a message you will want to send to your new affiliates when they join.

For Writing A Welcome Message:

1) There is a sample letter you can use by going to tips at the bottom of the Affiliate Snapshot
or going to: https://www.sfimg.com/PopUp/SampleWelcomeLetter
2) You can write you own short welcome message if you prefer.
3) Place
