1) Do some self counseling, don’t label yourself that ‘you are not good at approaching people face to face’ instead say to yourself ‘I haven’t done or tried’.
2) Be at ease, you are not on a mission. Don’t pressurize yourself. Don’t even think of sales, closing the deal etc.
3) Assess their current life situation, their thinking and prepare a brief note about them. Neglect some of their negatives if you see. Your objective is to see the positives and empower them.
4) Don’t presume such as he/she is arrogant, has a good income level or lack education. Each person needs to be approached differently. Just focus on learning the art of approaching and you will approach each one accordingly.
5) Be enthusiastic, be positive, be honest/open, be informative, be thoughtful/reasoned.
6) Once the relationship is harmonious, offer your invitation to join you in the business of 21st century. Timing is crucial.
7) Anyone can be approached; it’s our attitude that determines the outcome.
Happy prospecting….!

Should the way you approach prospective ECAs vary by country/region?

Yes, it is a factor to consider while approaching an ECAs.
But, factors one considers while approaching an ECA are product, market (local & global) and most importantly shipping. So, the approach varies from region to region and sometimes within the region as well.
The most important thing you consider while approaching any ECA is the product competency viz-a-viz price, demand and supply(including shipment).
But, we should not overlook region as a factor while approaching ECAs as it's not the biggest factor.
It is easy to approach an ECA locally as you are aware of the market and you can assist him personally in generating sales.
So, I would conclude by saying the approach varies from region to region and even ECA to ECA.
Thanks.

The secret to writing a good newsletter is reading a lot personally everyday and taking note points of constructive and productive ideas which shall help the team members to work efficiently.
It is a continuous process of reading, conceptualizing and presenting. Now the content may include anything related to sponsoring, team building, leadership, network marketing, e-commerce, motivation to self development.
The most important thing is, your newsletter should be as original as you. And if you stick by this rule you may not write an excellent newsletter at the beginning, but within a year you will be writing a daily newsletter without looking for any content.
I say so because, I believe in permanent solution than a temporary one.

Which is better and why? Promoting SFI and TripleClicks locally and more personally...or globally via the Internet?

As a business opportunity:
As SFI & TC business model is developed in such a way that, it can be promoted locally and globally.
Which is better and why depends on individuals reach and method of approach.
There is no guarantee that a neighbor will perform better than a foreigner, so promote on both platforms. It is just that some are good at one and some are at the other.
As sales:
Consider these two as 2 different categories (or markets). You can do business in either a
category or in both the categories.
Global sales are challenging for some affiliates, but they can do it locally and vice versa.
Everything depends on product, pricing & shipping, competition, target market etc.
Once the product is decided, find out how the product will favor in both the markets.
- It was necessary for me to answer this under 2 headings.

I think you should first check Rewards section of TripleClicks.com, there are some really good SFI merchandise which I find value in.
These are some very attractive value buying with MRP:
* Lifetime custom prestige domain for SFI
* New TripleClicks seller licence
* S-Builder Co-op
* PSA's to go
* 1 TCredit pack.
I find these 5 products really attractive to buy with MRP.
Good Luck.
What would be a better goal and why? Sponsor hundreds of new PSAs every year or teach a smaller number of EAs to each develop EAs themselves?

Your first objective should be 5 developing 5 EA's minimum.
Next help them sponsor and develop 5 EA's minimum.
Sponsoring 10's or 100's of PSA's should be an simultaneous work. Because you never know how your EA's will behave after their 3rd or 4th month.
So, you should sponsor and develop as many EA's as possible.
Then decide by looking at your movers. Keep it an team activity.
Teach your PSA's to sponsor their own prospects. Later you may reassign your average EA's to your best performing EA's.
Again balance is the key here. Some people sponsor 1000's but fail to teach duplication.

Which helps my SFI business the most...playing Eager Zebra games or bidding on Pricebenders auctions?

Both are very good opportunities to consider for winning TCredits and earning MRPs, VPs.
The most helpful depends on which one you are focusing on. Because the more you participate and bid or play the better you get at it.
Try and test everything. Decide once you have gained little confidence and then focus on those games or auctions with tactics.
Some games if played with preparation could win you 30-40 Tcredits for being runner or 2nd runners up.
Both are opportunities, so don't choose one over the other.

Which is better to pursue...CSAs or PSAs?

PSAs.
There is very little you can do about pursuing CSAs.
You will any way gain them month after month. So, your focus should be on pursuing PSAs.
Providing support to CSAs is just like being a helping hand but PSAs need your serious attention.
CSAs may give you commissions but PSAs will generate business for you.
Treat all as your team.
