That is a brilliant question being asked by most of us in SFI. I personally experienced that problem from the co-sponsors that I got from reaching EA level.

I can advise you to use PSA or CSA mailer weekly to congradulate those that performed outstandingly. And with the lessons that you learned look at your PSAs and CSAs VP ledger to see what is still left for them to do. Then you can continue on giving advices on what they can do to advance to the next level.

I did just that

It looks difficult but after trying you will see how easy it is.

* setup a standing order for 1500 vp preferably tcredits because you can use them to purchase lots of things and bid on auctions.
* use the tcredits to bid or buy PSAs.
* you can join WAVE3 for only $1.99 with this you 5 tcredits and 50 MRP every month for free.
*you can again use S-Build co-op for getting new affiliates.
* you can buy gift cards and distribute around town or give it to some busy shops

I experienced the same problem only that mine was active. Whenever I asked for assistance. The person would tell me to do weekly, daily and monthly activities.

That time I didn't even know where to begin. So my co-sponsor came to my rescue. He said that I should loggin and look at the SFI basics. From there on am doing good. With the help of the SFI basics trust me there's a good learning material within SFI itself.

Am only greatful that she recruited me to grap this awesome

By the time they reach EA level, they will have no any other choice but to add a little something.this one it comes naturally. Because if not the won't either maintain EA level or reach the BTL level.

Keep an eye on your PSAs and CSAs VP Ledger there you will notice if there's a need. Then you can advice them to atleast buy one tcredit that it will get them 102 vp for enabling them to maintain or move to the next level.

After this purchase it will then be upon them to purchase

This ten listed below items may be of assistance if used with determination.

First of all you need to get 500VP in your first 24 hours. Stay above the green line during the grace period of E365 competition that should last for 1 year commencing the day That you became an Affiliate.for you to make it a champion and there's some awesome prizes awarded during this period.

I learned the power of duplication that if you highly put it into action, it can make thousands earner. And this comes with the methods of attaining affiliates and the leadership role to play.

That you need to collect as much information on SFI so that you can pass it on to your PSA and CSA.e.g how to obtain VP's and why is obtaining vps essential to your business, advertising, compensation plan, auctions, competitions,standing orders, communication means and most importantly duplicating.

Firstly I hope you are not the kind that says if you have a problem feel free to contact me. But at the end when your contacted your of no help.

I believe if you can't assist you should know learning materials that can. In my case I asked my sponsor for help, but could not assist. The moment I contacted my co-sponsor he just said look at your SFI basics. From all the mysteries were resolved. If my sponsor would said the same that would have saved me all the trouble.

From then

By conversating with them regularly. Giving them information about SFI. Sometimes it will be that your are informing them about something that they needed to hear about.

In this way they will have you as their source of information and noticing that you have enough information to assist them they will resort into asking you each time they have a problem.

By giving them information on all topics like standing order,competitions, diverse types of advertising, triple clicks, etc
