Comparing the two is like comparing Food and Money, So it is not a fair trade off.

You need both Tcredits and PSA's to contnue at SFI and be successful. if you do not invest in one this month you will have to do so the next month and so on.

If; however, you have a sum of money and want to invest it, but can only invest in one, I would say it depends on your needs. For example, are you struggling to maintain your rank, then go for TCredits.

Each month commission is paid out to affiliates who are EA2 and above, a check is issued or money deposited. The VersaPoints(VP) that we acquire during the month are used to calculate this commission and pay us.

On the first day of the next month we begin earning again. We require a new set of VersaPoints to calculate our commission for a new check at the end of that month.

The VP's are therefore reset to '0' because your commission is set to '0' once paid.

I want to be a good co-sponsor to my CSAs...but I don't want to overstep boundaries on those who have a great sponsor. How do I fill my role appropriately?

Although your CSA has a great sponsor, you can be a great Co-sponsor.

Follow the instructions for Co-sponsors.

Do not overwhelm them with unnecessary information. Remember that they will be receiving newsletters from a sponsor and from SFI.

Remember they have a great sponsor who has a role, so treat them as business partners, not as children who need to be trained. Send them newsletters just as you would your PSA's.

When there is a major important

The first statement a prospect may hear or see is the initial ad that caught his/her attention. There are many texts provided by SFI at the marketing Center. Some of them can also be used for word-of-mouth promotion or emails.

Choose statements that will appeal to your audience, For example, are they:
-Unemployed
-Looking for a second income
-Entrepreneur looking for a business opp
-Retired
-Homemaker

Here are some top statements:

The decision is up to you. It depends on your financial situation.

A good business decision is to invest it back into the business. If there is an expense you just could not afford, this is the time to do it.

You can use it for business expenses such as:
-More advertising and promotion.
-Rewarding PSA's
-Buying more PSA
-Bidding more
-Gift certificates to increase your TripleClicks sales


You can invest it ALL into the business,

Our welcome letter to our PSA's must be short and direct.

We must be careful not to give too much information that can overwhelm and confuse.

There are some sample welcome letters that are available at SFI that I use.They include
-Introducing ourselves.
-Our role as their sponsor
-Ways to contact you
-Offering help and support

Any tips must involve their getting started and settled.

A tip that comes to mind is: a quick and easy way to

Although TCedits can be used to make purchases, bid at Pricebenders and play games, spending your TCredits on sponsoring PSA's on a regular basis will guarantee you more PSA's to build your team.

You need active PSA's to build a team and grow as a business.

Many affiliates may fall by the wayside and become inactive, but there are those who do not. Replacing those who become inactive and adding more to your team are ways to build your business, this is mandatory for

What is the biggest mistake to avoid when advertising?

I think the biggest mistake is setting up a BIG advertising budget and spending too much without tracking results FIRST. Before long your funds are used up and your advertising is not effective.

Tracking the results of your advertising will prevent you from wasting money on ineffective advertising. After all you want to make a profit.

Even though you may have a large budget, use a small amount of money or FREE advertising and TRACK the results from two or more sources.

That is a very good question.

For a newbie to follow the example of his leader requires understanding of what it is all about.

This is therefore one example of when prevention is better than cure. Preventing confusion begins during the first 24 hours of signup. I think we lose a lot of prospects during this time.

Set up a simple guide that your downline can follow until they can find their way around. Label the guide appropriately so they can be drawn to it.

" Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day-in and day-out."
-author, unknown.

These small efforts could be your habits, so your question is a good one. You want to know what these small efforts are.

If you have habits that can block your progress or prevent you from making decisions you will not grow. The best ones are those that will allow you to grow, those that will allow you to earn more and more.
