Great question. I first studied the key code area under power tools.

After setting up my 5 SFI web sites and adding key codes, I copied and pasted them in my app called (notes) on my ipad.
I labeled each one, what it was called and what I was promoting.

Just add a period behind your sponsor code then add your key code.
Then to track specific social media postings, I copied and pasted my gateway sites to my notes.
I labeled one for Facebook; to promote triple

I just sent this email to all of my affiliates to give them the information of what I do EXACTLY EVERYDAY.
I hope this helps answer your question and give you some ideas.

Here it is:

I want to point out that it is very important to LOG IN EVERYDAY,
HERE IS A DETAILED INSTRUCTION LIST OF WHAT I DO EVERY DAY!
Log in, go to the HOME tab, click on ALERTS, read and scroll to the bottom, click the BAR that you have reviewed the page, then go across to the next tab,

That is a great question, one that I had been trying to solve.

I can tell you what I have started doing and I have gotten results.

It is time consuming, I wrote my own 'help' information.
Then I have copied and pasted it in e-cards individually and I have sent the information to all of my affiliates and co- affiliates.

I also added an incentive that for each affiliate or co-affiliate reached EA by the end of August that I would give them 5 T-Credits.
I had

Great Question

Most affiliates have friends or family that live in the U.S.
So they can send emails to them using one of the available methods/links offered for emailing in the SFI Marketing area.
Also, most affiliates have friends or family that also know people or have family in the U.S., So they can have 'their' friends promote it to their U.S. friends :-) just send them the link and have them forward it.

Affiliates in other countries most likely also have friends

Great question!!

I started my career as a commercial artist, then spent the next 15 years in advertising..

I have a few suggestions...
First, read all the articles that SFI has to offer, they have been successfully promoting SFI for over 16 years! I don't believe in re-inventing the wheel unless it's necessary.

Next, go to your A2A friends and solicit ideas. You can also find great tips in the forum!

I personally have always found great resources

I know a good photo is essential.
People like to know who they are communicating and working with.
A photo with a professional look and a genuine smile will be more likely to give people more confidence in you.
Remember, you only get one chance to make your first impression!

Let it be a good one.

I have over 20 years in sales, customer service and management. One important thing about customer service is to always greet everyone with a sincere smile. It is

What are the things about SFI that most convince people to join?

That is a great question!
I am glad that you asked!!!

I know that the fact that it is free to join is one great advantage.

Having researched numerous of so-called Free businesses to join, I know that one advantage to SFI is that once you join that you will NOT be taken to another page that tries to entice you into upgrading for $ dollars a month.
SFI does not use the bait and switch tactics.

That is one advantage that I have been recently adding to my advertising;

Great question!

I am 55. I know the value of my current retirement status and what I will or will not be able to live comfortably on. I joined SFI so that I could start a 'work at home' opportunity to build towards financial freedom for the future. If most 55 year olds are like me, they have a lot of computer experience, business sense, and people skills. Not to mention wisdom and maturity.
The maturity to 'stay' with a project even when it is not always "exciting". The

Great question!

I search for safe lists, then once I find one that I am interested in; I search for reviews on it. Also I search using different search engines, like google, bing, yahoo, etc.... ( you can also search for search engines if you are not familiar with this.

After I find one with good reviews, I join, if it's free. Set up a separate email address just for it, so you can keep track of the emails just pertaining to that list. I then read all the emails to get credits

Great question!

Yes, students 18 or older would be great candidates, for several reasons;

* they have a more social life
* they have more friends
* they have more free time
* they are more computer literate since they grew up with technology
* they have their whole future ahead of them

Imagine how great it would be for a college student to get started in this business, they could be a millionaire by the time they are 25, if they worked the system
