Prepare an attractive message including an image and a text.

Save the image from Marketing Aids in SFI Marketing Center to your computer by right clicking on the chosen Gift Card image > save image as > type TripleClicks Gift Card.

Use this image when writing your e-mail to the recipient. Make sure you explain clearly how the card should be redeemed, what TCredits and MRPs are, how to choose a payment method when checking out, etc.

The rest is your choice –

1. The very fact of SFI being the object of such a massive cyber-attack is a proof of the company’s solid standing in the business world. It is only successful businesses that are the target of hackers because of big profit expectations.

2. The fast response of SFI support team and their amazing skill in handling the attack is another proof of reliability. Immediate measures were taken to protect our business, there was a stream of news about the process of creating additional layer(s)

Would it be beneficial to create separate forums and do web seminars about SFI in languages other than English?

For non-English speakers it might be a good idea to have translated SFI info in a nutshell and a forum to exchange advice and ideas in the respective language. However, it involves technical issues that can only be controlled and supported by SFI Management team.

I believe it is much more practical for Team leaders to run web seminars and a forum for their team in a language other than English, provided the team is big enough to justify the effort.

Regular contact with PSAs and CSAs is vital for the business. Sunday weekly PSA Mailer, CSA Mailer, or Genealogy Group Mailer is mandatory. I usually contact my PSAs on Sunday, my CSAs on Monday and if there is SFI news to share like the new Marketing Center or E-card program, or milestones, I use Genealogy Group Mailer to reach the team.

But there is more to it than meets the eye. A good sponsor should be at their team’s disposal as much as possible, like a doctor on call. As soon as

When are we proud of something we have done?

When we have an idea that we start working on; when the very process of implementing it gives us pleasure in spite of the toil; when we achieve a result we can honestly call SUCCESS.

SFI has provided us all with both the idea and the tools to put it into practice; as well as free training for everyone who wants to work hard in order to achieve success. I am proud of the way this company helps people with teamwork and encourages

The top ten countries based on the number of active affiliates are:
1. India
2. United States
3. Philippines
4. Pakistan
5. Nigeria
6. South Africa
7. Serbia
8. Bangladesh
9. Indonesia
10. Canada
However, I would advise advertising in countries where your mother tongue or the languages you speak, are spoken. Thus you’ll avoid the language barrier and the hardships of clumsy translation.

How do you get your affiliates to approach their SFI business realistically, like a real business, and not some get unrealistic rich quick scheme?

“SFI is not a Sprint but a Marathon!” I read in the Forum. Couldn’t agree more.

Can one run a Marathon without training, preparation or equipment? Obviously NOT!
How can one expect to run a profitable business without studying WHAT to do, WHEN and HOW to do it properly? It is, apparently, NOT possible!

How come so many people expect to make a profit, get rich overnight without the necessary preparation? Get realistic! Online business is like any other business, so

The new E-Cards are attractive, very handy and easy to use.

The tip E-cards are particularly convenient as they are on the same page as the PSA or CSA’s VP Ledger. The Sponsor/Co-Sponsor can quickly go through the ledger and give advice on what’s next to do.

The new E-Cards cover a number of occasions to contact your team members – from Welcome, through Congratulations, Birthday/Anniversary wishes and Here to help to Inactive and Don’t go.

Above all else, what is the ONE THING that has made the difference for you in succeeding with SFI?

The ONE amazing thing that makes a difference with SFI is the positive competition.

Unlike every business which strives to succeed by eliminating rivals, SFI encourages you to support rivals because they work for you as you work for them if they support you.

It’s a really smart WIN-WIN endeavor making all affiliates an entity more likely to succeed by joint effort. Well done!

How far should sponsors go to help their affiliates move forward, is there a point you should not go beyond?

There is an old saying: “Give somebody a fish and you’ll feed them for a day. Teach them to fish and you’ll feed them for life.”

A Sponsor should follow this wise advice and teach their team WHAT they have to do and HOW to do it. No more and no less.

It isn’t an easy task and we all learn while working. Lead by example, explain as much as you can and always be available for questions.

But when it comes to doing business it’s one’s own responsibility.
