When you say 'more' I understand that you are already utilizing some ways.

Besides setting up a standing order and completing your daily action points on the 'To-Do list', there are many more.

One quick way is to buy T Credits, 1 Tcredit for 102VP is cheap.

These are Others:
-Weekly and monthly actions
-Buying the things you would buy outside/locally at TripleClicks instead.
-Supporting a team member above EA2 status.
-Bidding at Pricebenders

After 1 year of inactivity all affiliates are automatically opted out by SFI. After this time you may no longer contact them. They are removed from being your downline.

As long as they are subscribed you do not give up on them. This means as long as they are in your genealogy you will continue.

Remember inactive affiliates may become active so don't write them off totally. Continue to include them in your weekly newsletters.

When you own a domain you have a wed address that is owned by and registered to you. You own a piece or real estate on the internet.

With your own domain you can build and own a website and do business online You can make money by monetizing the web pages.

Owning the domain gives you control of the website and its pages, so you can choose what to do with your website and what ads to display

The main advantage is owning a website. With one's own website

Our first contact with a prospect, other than through word of mouth will be made through some form of promotion. The Marketing material such as our gateways and the information within them are preset by SFI, so they will be the 'Attention Getter' when we use them.

What is important is that the prospects know that they will be involved in an Affiliate Program. For many people it is not the opportunity of choice. Some do not favour the merchant/affiliate relationship. On the other

Many affiliates seem only interested in the Daily To-Do list. How can I motivate them to do other activities?

Doing the Daily To-Do list should be enough to motivate any affiliate. There is a lot of information, tips and resources within those pages to make one want to do more.

Interest in the To-Do list only, may indicate a lack of knowledge of what SFI is really all about. Since it requires signing in there is obviously no problem with computer or internet. There is enough motivation to show up.

Completing the To-Do list will not give them an income, only an entry into the Grand

Showing appreciation for work already done can be effective motivators. Start by developing a good relationship with all active PSA's, especillay the most active ones

-Use the stream to congratulate and recognize their accomplishments.
-Send them an eCard on special occasions, like when they have become winners.
-Keep the lines of communication open and respond to their questions in good time.

Is it worthwhile to sponsor affiliates who speak little English or have very limited computer/Internet experience?

Affiliate since: 04/13/2013, Power Rank: 2353

The answer is "YES," it is more than worthwhile.

There are many resources to help affiliates with those two limitations.
1- There is a translator tool on each page for your's and the affiliate's use. You can use it to communicate with affiliates who understand little English. Advise them to use it too.

There is the A2A community where you will find many affiliates that speak a second language or affiliates who have the same language limitations. Direct

Promote TripleClicks by using your TripelClicks Gateway by all means;this goes without saying. You have your own gateway for this.

You can also promote either individual products or an entire ECA store. It depends on the market you are trying to reach and whether you want to sell a variety of the same type of products or whether you want to sell only a few products in a niche market.

If an ECA store has lots of items in stock and they are of the same category, example,

Your question is a scenario of the importance of reading and learning soon after signing up and before sponsoring.


To help a PSA needing guidance there are lots of training material at SFI that can be used to guide them. Direct them to the specific training pages with the links to them. These are some main links that can be used, since you are both new direct him/her to:
