I've won the Pick The Price Contest a few times , and so I can only tell you what has worked for me.

First and foremost, you must play often...face it, if you're not in the game, you can't win!

Here is my list of things I do for this contest...

1. I play often
2. I pick one item only (it may be listed more than once for different times, this is ok...play all times listed) example: 300 pack T-Credits with auctions listed at 24 min., 1 hr 15 min., and

The question of "How Do I..." is focusing on the wrong thing in my opinion. Whether it's getting someone to duplicate, get a standing order, or anything else. I believe the best thing for you...and others wanting to figure out how to get someone to do anything would be focusing on the wrong thing. Instead of placing your focus on "How Do I", just focus on doing everything that you can do for your business and, yes...this does mean explaining the importance of something to your

Hi, you know...quite a few affiliates ask that same question or, they don't ask and end up just taking a guess so first, I'd like to applaud you for asking this question.
In my opinion, when signing up a new ECA, You should spend a little time showing them how to log onto the site first and how to navigate throughout Triple Clicks. I would even show them how to log into and navigate SFI as well since their new customers will be affiliates of SFI. It would also give them a first hand tour of

First and foremost,I would respond with enthusiasm. I would ask them questions so that I could see what they know or think they know and I would be completely honest with them. This is a real business and does take a real effort to build however, for those who are serious about having an international online business and understand what it takes to grow it will be thankful for your honesty.

Why should I remain focused on my SFI business when there are other companies offering me allegedly similar opportunities?

First, let me ask you a question if I may. I understand that there are many companies out there that bombard you with opportunities however, if you've spent any time with SFI, why would you even consider turning your focus on anything else?

There are several reasons why I ask this.

1. SFI has a proven track record for the past 16 years.
2. SFI has teamed up with Triple Clicks which gives you more opportunities.
3. SFI has I believe eleven possible income

Although free advertising is cost effective, especially if money is an issue; paid advertising is always the best way to go since you are able to target those you wish to reach. Targeted traffic is the traffic in which the recipients are actually interested in what it is you have to offer. Paid advertising does just that, it targets your advertising dollars being spent on those people who are open to that which you have to offer; this in return gives you the best opportunity to get the most out of

As a new Team Leader, what is the single most important thing I should be doing?

The single most Important thing that I should be doind as a new Team Leader, which by the way, I am, is to "lead by example".

Everything I've read within all the training sections talk about "duplication".

If SFI believes duplication is of such importance that they would mention it time and time again, then I believe it is the most important thing that I should be doing...as a new or long time Team Leader!

Now, if duplication is the most important

How do I get the maximum benefits of being an SFI affiliate?

If you or anyone else for that matter wants to get the maximum benefits being an SFI affiliate, you would first have to make the decision that this is what you want, and that you will not be happy with anything less. Now, I'm not talking about saying you've made the decision; I'm saying you need to internalize your decision deep down inside. Most people will say, "I'll try this" or even "yeah, ok...I'll do this business". Unfortunately, this type of commitment isn't a commitment

How do you develop trust with your affiliates and get them to follow your leadership?

To me, the only way to gain someones trust is to lead by example. Obviously, you cannot ask or even expect your downline affiliates to do something that you yourself aren't doing. Always be honest with them; if they ask you a question and you don't know the answer, be sure to tell them that you don't know however, the two of you will find out together. This will gain more trust than anything else that you could ever say to them.
Be sure to stay in touch with them as often as you can w/out being

I want to use an autoresponder on my website. What information do I need to provide to potential Affiliates in follow-up emails?

Personally, I would not incorporate the use of an auto-responder with SFI. Yes, auto-responders are effective with IM sites however, I believe that you would rather incorporate a more personal touch in bringing on new affiliates to SFI. Once they've come on bored with SFI, using the group mailings for your PSA's and CSA's is really all you need.
