That's a very good question because being in network marketing industry at some point or the other we have to have Open House Get-Togethers. I remember when I first I started Network Marketing business 15 years back the Open House Get-Togethers were the norms as internet was not that popular in those days. A lot of people used to join in those get-togethers.
When I started my SFI business my presentations were mostly one to one on desktops. Lot of my PSAs have joined me this way. I could show them how it works.
But when you want to have a get-together of more than two people then you must adhere to following points :

1)Inform all participants the reasons of get-together. It should not be a surprise to them lest they back out or resist.2)Participants should not be known to each other.If they are known to each other then any negative comment will find a supporter in known friend.
3)Negative talks or comments should be avoided at all times.
4)If all have smartphones then it can be easily shown to all simultaneously and they will have first hand practical experience.
5)At the end of the meeting questions must be asked to know their level of interest.
6)Any difficulties faced can be immediately rectified.
7)Some products bought from Tripleclicks must be shown prominently.
8)Any pins earned physically must be shown to all.
9)You should dress appropriately as a businessman giving a professional look.
10)The presentation must be brief and should not consume more than 45-50 minutes because humans can't concentrate more than 50 minutes at a time.

I hope this will help you to have a good Get-Togethers and good number of new sign ups.

All the best

I want to first thank you Augustine for asking this informative question. I immediately started thinking about it and I started pondering over how do I communicate with my downlines.
It most importantly depends how we sponsored or acquired those downlines. Let's explore all the available means and its effectiveness, to communicate with downlines which are as follows :
1)Telephones/mobiles: This method is most effective if you know your downlines personally. If you are comfortable talking with your downlines then this is the best available option to communicate. The following are the advantages of communicating with telephones or mobile phones:
A)It's quick. It's instantaneous. You can explain everything on phone to your downlines which can take a long time by other means of communications
B)Your downlines know that somebody real is talking on phone. Your confidence reflects on the phone. It immediately transmits a great motivation signal to your downlines.
C)Your downlines's doubts can be immediately cleared and your business will grow manifold as each downline will start scoring maximum points. I have used this method effectively as most of my downlines start scoring VPs immediately after communicating with me on phone. I call them personally.

2)Social media like Facebook, twitter, Google plus etc : This method is most effective if you have sponsored your downlines through social media like Facebook etc. In my case most of my downlines whom I sponsored through Facebook continue to communicate with me and I can guide them through Facebook ( I mostly use Facebook)

There are many whom I sponsored through Facebook and they are continuing in SFI because I am continuously communicating with them personally.
They get motivation from me as they can see the proof that if a 50 plus man can do it they can definitely do it.

3)Email:This method is mostly effective when you do not know your downlines personally. You can send them mails and guide them. As compared to above means of communications its effectiveness is slower. Nevertheless, its also a good method of communication. It was effective in my case as my sponsor is from a different country and initially she communicated with me through emails only.

4)Through SFI Group Mailer : SFI has given us an excellent method of communicating with those downlines who are many levels down. In my case this method has inspired one of my downlines in my 3rd level. This is effective as well.

I hope this will help you a great deal as you can choose any of the above means of communications depending on how you sponsored or acquired your downlines. Use all available means to grow your business. All the best to you.

What was it that made you realize that SFI is the real deal?

That's a very nice question Maja because that is the reason I am working in SFI even after joining many other online networking companies. I will try to explain why SFI is the real deal with my own example.

I had joined SFI 11 months ago and for the first 5 months I didn't do much in SFI. For first 5 months I thought SFI was just like any other online networking business. I had joined quite a few such companies in which I lost lots of money. Prior to joining SFI I had joined one more E Commerce Company which had recently been launched. I was paying $ 50 per month in it for a product( online marketing education programme) which I realised later that it was FREE in SFI. This opened my eyes.

I liked the regular emails from SFI and found these very informative and educative.

What impressed me more about SFI was that SFI had already proved itself as a real business with real products which other so called E Commerce Companies didn't have. Those E Commerce Companies were nowhere near to SFI in terms of training and marketing expertise. This made me think of SFI as a highly rated quality business opportunity unmatched by any other business opportunity because I had seen quite a number of networking companies since last 16 years of my networking experience.

You can do so much in SFI. You can learn from fellow SFI Affiliates through Forum and ASK SC tabs. This kind of learning is not available in any other networking business. No costly meetings to attend here. All trainings in SFI are online. It not only saves time but also saves a lot of money. There are thousands of real products which we can buy online here. There are real Auctions, real games, real original music to listen to and with a real opportunity to make money here.

With above facts I can proudly say that SFI indeed is a real deal.

That's a good question Andjela.
I will answer this both from your perspective as well as mine. The answer lies in the reasons why we all join SFI.
From my perspective, why I joined SFI was that I was looking for a home based business which could be done from home. After joining a lot of internet based programmes I found SFI miles ahead of any comparable programme. None of them are anywhere near to it.
The income we can generate is primarily by making sales at tripleclicks. If we make more sales, we are more likely to make more income. The most rewarding task here is to generate team sales thereby making more money. That means if we have large teams, we are most likely to make large incomes. Now the next question is how to build large teams and what are the options available at our disposal. The following options are available to us for sponsoring :
1)PSAs= Personally Sponsored Affiliates
2)CSAs=Co-Sponsored Affiliates
3)PRMs=Personally Referred Members=Tripleclicks users
4)ECAs=E Commerce Associates
Any of the above named entities can give us incomes if they make sales in Tripleclicks.
In my case to recruit more people I started advertising vigorously primarily on Facebook(I am not much familiar with other social networking sites). It was my personally designed advertising. People started commenting on my posts and in order to recruit them I asked them to provide their emails so that I could send them my Gateway link as Facebook doesn't allow SFI Gateway links on its site. As I sent them pre-written emails I started getting my PSAs. My PSAs were from all walks of life and from different countries. Whenever they purchased I made commissions. So it didn't matter to me whether they were from which country. See it was natural for me that people joined me as PSAs or PRMs or ECAs from around the world.
Same way it will happen with you too. Don't worry if many people join you from different countries. Once you advertise you cannot have control who joins you from which country. So just keep sponsoring and walk all the way to the bank.

I hope that answers your question.

What can I do to get my new sign-ups to stay engaged with SFI for longer than one day?

That's a question which I like very much because that's what I have been doing since joining SFI and after literally sponsoring hundreds of PSAs I try to engage PSAs more than one day. If you succeed in engaging your PSAs more than one day then its almost guaranteed that they will become active.

The very first thing I do to engage my PSAs is to send them Welcome E Cards and Welcome Letters asking them to contact me immediately to learn how to generate big income here in SFI. Who doesn't want to generate big income? This way I try to keep their attention affixed to SFI. Then I ask them to watch the START video. I give them time to watch it and then immediately I ask them to read SFI BASICS. Once they have read it then I ask them to read all Daily Action tabs and score points. This way they understand this business in a much better way. Then I ask them to click To Do tab and read and try to understand which actions give them how many points. This way they learn practically with examples.

Next I ask them to Confirm their Registration and Whitelist [email protected].
Once they have done this then I ask them to play T-Time. I guide them personally through Facebook Messenger or through Whatsapp. Once they have understood above then I ask them to explore SFI and Tripleclicks of their own and if they have any questions then I will be available for them next day. This way I keep them engaged for days till they have understood it all.

Now they can sponsor of their own and build their team and guide them and thus duplicate the process.

That's how I have built my team and I am sure you would also like to do same way and build a big team.

All the best to you.

That's a very good question and faced by almost all PSAs.
The support of family is very important and if you get your family's support initially then your SFI business will skyrocket immediately. But it doesn't always happen that way. Most of us face this challenge and wished we could get family's support. In my personal case too I too wished all my family members supported me but it is not there. But its a challenge for me. I have taken it as a project to be completed anyhow. I am prepared to give it all and I am sure I will do it. It was my decision to join SFI and I will do it anyway whether my family members support it or not. It's my dream and goal. Eventually when I succeed in SFI I know they will all like it and enjoy it.
I hope you have got this point clear that whether your family members support or not support you must do it to get success in SFI.

All the best to you.

SFI has great ways to communicate with your team, but am I missing out by not using outside resources too like email, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, etc.?

That's a very good question because almost everybody uses these outside communication nowadays. These are very effective means of communications for recruiting new PSAs. In my case almost 90 % of my PSAs have come through Facebook, Whatsapp or through emails. After recruiting PSAs I guide them mostly through Facebook Messenger or Whatsapp. I have even used my personal phone to communicate with them. This makes them understand SFI faster and they become active instantly.

In my case my sponsor used to communicate with me through group mails only which delayed my getting active very late. Being in network marketing industry I wanted to know how to sponsor new people but there was so much information overload that I wasn't able to concentrate on any one topic and I didn't know how to get started. Had she been communicating with me through those outside resources I would have become active fast. So I use all outside resources like Facebook Messenger and Whatsapp etc to communicate with my downlines. In my welcome letter I make it a point to include my Facebook ID and Whatsapp contact details and asking them to contact me immediately if they don't understand any aspect of SFI business.

Yes I can say that you will be definitely missing out if you don't use outside resources.

So I greatly recommend the use of these so called outside resources and build a network of highly active PSAs fast.

All the best to you.

How can I earn 1000 AVP for the status of BTL if I do not have any team members yet?

That's a question I am sure you must have asked before the current changes in Team Leader qualification were made. Anyway it is still a relevant question because in spite of having an EA or EA2 in our team we still need around 900 exact points. However I will guide you here how you can still get 1000 points if you don't have a team.

1) The very first thing you must do is log in daily and score all the Daily Action points. This will give you 12 points daily without spending any TCredits. That makes 12×30=360 points in a 30 days month and 372 points if its a 31 days month. If you spend 2 TCredits daily one each on Games and Pricebenders Auctions then you can score 4 additional points because you get one bonus point each for playing games and bidding for auctions. So that makes 16×30=480 points for 30 days month and 496 points if its 31 days month.

Additionally if you bid each day for Double MRP Auctions you will also accumulate 300 or 310 MRPs depending on whether it's a 30 days month or 31 days month. Also you will get 5 MRPs each day by playing any one game by spending 1 TCredit each. Thus every day you will get 15 MRPs this way. That makes 15×30=450 MRPs for a 30 days month or 465 MRPs if its 31 days month. On the last day of the month you can use 378 of those MRPs to buy 3 single TCredits one by one. Remember single TCredits can be purchased with 126 MRPs. Each purchase of single TCredit also gives you 102 sales VPs. So you get 306 VPs from MRPs alone. But you must remember that these VPs from MRPs are sales VPs and if your quota of sales VPs is full then these will not be counted as 1000 AVPs as required by you. Nevertheless, these are VPs.
Let's consider its a 30 days month so you can have 480 AVPs from Daily Action points.

2) Weekly Points : You can also score 20 points from Group Mailer and 3 points from stream posts. That makes 23 points each week and 23×4 = 92 Points. These are also AVPs. Sometimes we may have 5 such weeks in a month but let's consider only 4 weeks in a month so that makes only 92 AVPs from weekly points.

3) Monthly Action Points : You can get 5 points by reviewing Member T Connect page each month. For setting your Goals before 10th of every month also gives you 5 AVPs and Rating your sponsor and SFI also gives you 10 AVPs. So that makes 20 AVPs each month.

4) Playing Eager Zebra Games by spending TCredits can give you a maximum of 250 AVPs.

5) Bidding for Pricebenders Auctions gives you Bonus AVPs. You can get a maximum of 600 AVPs from these.

6) Downloading TC Music can give you a maximum of 50 points each month.

7) Member Listing also can give you a maximum of 50 points each month.

8) You get 100 AVPs for each activated ECAs. There is no limit in it. You can appoint as many ECAs as you can.

9) You get 25 points for Product Reviews. Again there is no limit.

10) You get 10 points each for TC Gift Cards distribution with a maximum cap of 300 AVPs each month.
11) By submitting most popular answers to ask SC questions you get 100 AVPs for Top rated, 50 AVPs for Second most voted and 25 points if you are in 3-10th placed in total votes. Again there is no limit to it.

12) Other than above methods of getting AVPs there are many more ways to get AVPs. Spin and Win will also gives you a minimum of 5 AVPs and a maximum of 1000 AVPs. If you are lucky then you may win AVPs in Daily Grand and Daily Crown draws.

I hope now you have got a fairly good idea how to get the necessary 1000 AVPs each month.

What can you do to make make SFI more exciting and fun for your team?

That's a pretty nice question David because it is really a lots of fun to work in SFI. I will try to explain with my own practical experience how I make it more exciting and fun for my team.

I have a friend whom I sponsored as my PSA. Often I go to his office to guide him how to work in SFI. On his laptop I show him practically how to play different games. He gets pretty excited while playing Card King and Gold Streak games. It's a lots of fun playing these games because when the same card repeats in Card King we predict what we may win. It's just like a lottery draw which generates a lots of enthusiasm and excitement. In between games we crack jokes and have snacks too. It's more fun when we play Gold Streak because it involves a lots of guessing work. Sometimes we both agree on same option at other time we differ. When we differ I offer him a good snack if he is right. This makes both of us very excited. We do it almost daily.

I also play T-Time regularly and I win almost 8-10 times every month which also gives me 16-20 free TCredits every month. Winning T-Time is really a numbers game because more number of times we play T-Time more are our chances of winning it. I show him practically how to increase our chances of winning by playing 2 Games in a span of 6-8 minutes. I play one game just five minutes before the hour say at 11:55 am and again at 12:02 pm. This way I increase his chances of winning T-Time more often and he is now winning more often and thereby getting many FREE TCredits. This excites him very much. He starts playing more often now. I share this experience on my Stream post as well as on Forum posts which excites other members of my team also. Now they have also started winning more Free TCredits. This is really exciting and fun for all of us.

With FREE TCredits in their TCredits Ledger I ask my team to bid for Micro Auctions which they do and winning few Micro Auctions. When there is an upcoming Micro Auctions I inform my team mates on phone or Whatsapp. When they win these Micro Auctions it excites them a great deal because not only it strengthens their team they now regularly bid in auctions.

Another example how I make it more exciting and fun for my team is by playing Uber league. My daughter is a diehard fan of Euro club football. I often ask her to predict which team may win a particular game for example Inter Milan or Manchester united? She happily replies and when the prediction is correct it excites all of our family members.

This is how I make SFI more exciting and fun for my Team. I hope you will be benefited by it.

All the best.

Are there other resources we can/should use, besides official SFI ones, to be successful in building our teams?

Yes there are many other resources we can/should use to build our SFI business.

The very first resource is the human resource itself which is available in abundance. We should do our best to approach people to include them in our team. For this purpose we could use other resources like social media or our persona contacts through phones. We must make them aware of the vast life long benefits of joining SFI as compared to working as job.

The resources in social media are many like Facebook, Whatsapp, Google plus, Skype etc. We must make use of it.

I have been using these outside resources effectively and now I have a very big team with hundreds of PSAs which I have sponsored personally.

For advertising SFI business opportunity we can make use of places where lots of people frequent like malls, market places, roadside advertising with banners placed at strategic places.

Advertising outside places of worship are also good resources to advertise not only business opportunity but also many products.

There are many health products available in Tripleclicks which we can advertise near the hospitals.

As is clear from above that there are many resources outside of SFI which we can utilize to build our business successfully.

Make use of them.

All the best.
