Hello Victoria

Success is relevant, the definition of success has a different meaning to everyone. You need to measure your success against your goal timeline.

You had to set your goals when you initially joined SFI and again every month you need to review your goals to see if they are still the same or need to be changed.

The question you need to ask yourself about your own success is "How far away am I from my goal?" If your answer is a negative i.e. too

Hello Morita

You can use these flyers anywhere you can think of. I will list a few of my ideas below:

1. On community boards at your local shopping centres.
2. In you local library.
3. You can do mail drops get your children and their friends to walk your area dropping flyers into peoples mailboxes.
4. Put flyers under the windscreen wipers of cars parked in the street or at the malls.
5. As your local shops if you could leave some on their counters,

As there are 1000's of products to promote on TripleClicks, I suggest you search for a product that you would personally buy.

If you would buy a product, that means that you are excited about that product and what to tell others about it. This will then be reflected and portrayed in your advertising of the product.

One can only sell a product with honesty and integrity, if we promote a product in any other manner, we will lose prospective sign-ups and downlines which of course

We can only do this slowly, as people are raised to believe that they are followers which makes us good employees. We follow the boss and our immediate supervisor. "
To change this mentality you need to nuture and bring out the confidence in the people that they can do something on their own using their own initiative.

Encourage them, give them the steps to build their business, spoon feed them if you have to, but do not "do it" for them, they need to be encouraged

After reading all the answers to your question. I can only say that either one of those two demographics are the better. It depends on who you can communicate better with. Which section do you fit into, because you can word your adverts according to your own needs.

You, of course, cannot use the same advert for both and they are on opposite ends of the timeline. The retirees are looking for something to do and maybe subsidize their pension income. The homemakers on the other hand are looking

I think that most of us here are not journalists or professional writers.

I have signed up with article writing sites where they are strict and will teach you how to write.

Sign up with these sites, go through their training programmes and once you have "qualified" write articles and ads through their sites and other advertising sites using the experience and knowledge they have taught you.

That is what I did, and have gained so much through them

Good

Convincing someone that they can earn a substantial income with SFI, an excellent question.

Let me be rhetoric for a moment. What convinced you to join your first company or any company that you worked for?

The advantages that company offered. Its the same for SFI just speak about the advantages of SFI, the free membership, free training materials, free support etc.

If that does not convince them to join, then they are really not seriously looking for extra income

A very good question, I can only answer this by giving you my personal experience. As a young child/teenager/youth, I was rather introverted, the classic wallflower.

When I started working I had to undergo training to enable me to do my job properly. Over the years, I had to attend more courses to enable me to learn in greater detail how to do my job properly. Along with these courses I also had to do management courses.

Remember, the classic introvert doing a management course.

Hello Diana

Firstly I must that you need to understand that they are beginning the steps to leave SFI, so ultimately what you say might not really make any difference.

With that said, let me continue by saying that I would remind them firstly that this is not a Get-Rich-Quick scheme, that it takes time to establish a new business. Then remind them of the benefits and free training and support that is available to them whenever they need it.

I would ask them at which

Good question, makes one sit up and think.

I think my reason for staying here is that is costs nothing therefore I have nothing to lose by being here. On the other hand, I have everything to gain.

Apart from earning lots of extra money, I have gaining more knowledge, experience and of course more internet experience and knowledge, which definitely comes in handy when applying for mainline jobs, as electronic knowledge is the way commerce is going.

Lastly, but definitely
