My suggestion would be to let them know you are there for them all the time. Stay in regular contact, at least every second day and make it personal. You need to build up trust and confidence in you so that they will ask you questions. Give them your best tips for the first months and encourage them when they follow through. Then, give them the best way to get through the second month, and so on.
SFI can be overwhelming without the guidance and encouragement of a sponsor and people tend to give up more quickly.
I speak from experience because I never heard from my sponsor and so missed out on things like E365 and other subjects I wished I had known about. Also, there are so many things that I am still learning. Things that I would have never known to ask because I was new, but that a good sponsor would have informed me about.
It is important too to realize that your PSAs learn from you. The better of a sponsor you are, the more they will learn how to be a good sponsor too, which in turn will benefit you.

Because SFI does not require a big investment to begin with, nor to stay involved, it has given me the chance to get my pride and self-esteem back. I am on a limited budget due to a disability, but I know that with hard work and the multiple free learning tools SFI offers I am achieving something and will one day be able to gain my independence back. It is giving me hope for my future and confidence in myself because I am involved in a solid business and able to broaden my knowledge base at the same time.

Greet them, just as a an introduction, but don't stop there.
I have found out that the best way after the initial contact is not to wait for your affiliate to correspond with you and ask you questions. Like me, many new affiliates hesitate to contact a total stranger, especially when we are worried that your questions may seem silly.
I found out that the best way is to stay in regular contact with my affiliates, congratulate them for every milestone they have achieved, no matter how small, post about those milestones on stream. Furthermore, I use that opportunity to check on their profile what they still need to do and include that as an encouragement in my congratulations letter. I saves them from having to ask me those questions until they feel more confident.

Nothing is as convincing as hard proof. If you are getting a steady income from SFI, print out a record of your income starting from the beginning and add a short personal testimony. This way people can see how your income grew to where it is at right now. If you grab people's interest you can then explain how you got there and what you are planning to do to get even further ahead. But keep it personal or you will end up looking like a lot of those advertisements with big promises and the fine print saying "Results are not typical".

I think it is the same with every business or line of work. It is not a matter of how long the business or a certain profession has been around, but a question of demand and supply. For example, doctors have been around for thousands of years, but they never run out of work. You are a young entrepreneur, there are millions of people your age around ready to discover SFI and TripleClicks. As long as there are ECAs providing the needs of a new generation, as long you will have the same chance as anybody else.
It were different if SFI were at a stand still. But it is like a living being, so to speak, constantly evolving and growing. So dive right in.

I would not worry about it. They will have their reasons to disagree and the right to do so. Everyone is different. I would answer with something like "I am sorry it did not work out for you. But I love it. You can always come back to it if you change your mind." And then drop the subject and chose someone else to move forward with.
