My answer probably is no different than a lot of other affiliates, but I will tell you anyway.

I have a standing order for 125 TCredits every month. I use those TCredits exclusively for auctions that give double MRP. With those MRP I buy more TCredits or anything else I need. Usually it is for TCredits though. With those I go back and do more bidding on items that give me double MRP. It is kind of like the ever ending cycle of TCredits to MRP.

Also, with every TCredit used

Hello Danica

I have ran many ads and some have done great and some have done terribly.

I am still new to SFI and most of it has been trial and error. My advice would be to look at the template ads given to you by SFI and also to try to come up with your own. Reading other ads does not hurt either, just don't let other peoples ads sneak into yours. Put a new and original spin on it to make it your own. Also keep in mind the KISS method when coming up with ads. KISS stands for

My answer is going to differ greatly from others that I have read.

When I was a college student and I am sure others would agree, music was a HUGE part of the experience. Whether going to clubs, hanging out with friends or in my case being in a band and putting on shows of our own.

Instead of trying to attract them with SFI right away, how about introducing them to TripleClicks and the "Song-of-the-Month" Contest. In college, everyone knows someone in a band or someone

"What is the best and most cost effective way of boosting your income with SFI?"


I am sure many other people have already said this, but in my opinion the best and most cost effective way is by setting up a standing order.

For just a little under $60 a month, you can set up a standing order for a share of the S-Builder Co-Op and 125 T-Credits.

This is the method that I have followed. My reasoning behind this is the S-Builder Co-Op will bring in new

Great question.

In my opinion I don't think you should limit yourself when it comes to advertising. Obviously, if it isn't working don't do it, but I would try every country to start.

At times it seems some countries have better turn around then others, but that doesn't mean you should ignore the potential of other countries. Maybe hit them a little harder and continue advertising everywhere else.

As with all advertising though, make sure you are using keycodes

Apart from the 125 TCredits pack, what other Standing Order product with 1500 VP would you suggest to replace IAHBE?

This is a really great question and I know alot of people are wondering the same thing.

My advise is to not look at it like, " I need a standing order item worth 1500 VP."

Instead think about what you use around the house on a routine basis and put those items on a standing order. Otherwise there are other great items to put on standing order such as - S Builder Co-op, PSA's to Go, Silver, Advanced Liquid Nutrition and many others.

Hope this helps.

Who is the better demographic to target in my ads? Retired persons...or homemakers?

I believe limiting yourself to one demographic is a mistake. I do not mean to be rude or cruel but your results might not be what you wanted or expected.

I can not remember the statistic right off the top of my head, but I thought I saw somewhere that only 1% of people stay in SFI and are actually active. That is crazy but if true, I think the best scenario would be to saturate both demographics and any other demographic you can think of. DO NOT LIMIT YOURSELF. Or your success will be

Hi there.

I am just going to assume you have at least $65 to put to your business every month. I understand not everyone has this money. I don't, BUT I still make it happen every month with a standing order of 125 TCredits and a piece of S-Builder.

To me this makes the most sense because you're getting TCredits you need and will use and you'll also be receiving PSA's through the CO-OP. On top of that you will also be receiving close to 1800 VersaPoints for this purchase.

Is it better to promote SFI to friends and family...or to strangers?

I would say to both. Why sell yourself short. The best advise to to talk to as many people as you possibly can about SFI.

I would definitely have proof that this is working for family members though. At least in my case I would want to have proof. My family would think it is a another scam if I didn't.

Hope this helps.

Have a great day!

Do I need to have a website or my own blog to be successful with SFI?

Some others might disagree with me, but I would say no. SFI already gives you many gateways to use and if you know where to promote these I would think you wouldn't need a website or a blog.

It wouldn't hurt to have both though. Saturation is the key to getting out there and recruiting new affiliates.

Good Luck.
