There is no hard, fast, nor reliable method to solve this problem. New affiliates sign up to begin for many reasons:

1. SFI is so successful?
2. Was it their dream?
3. Earning an online income?
4. Start growing a second income from home?
5. To sign up to SFI is free?
6. Boredom; and SFI looks like a time killer, but potentially interesting and alluring?
7. Referral from someone?
8. Referral from you?

The fact is they have to want to join, for

Mother's Day gifts should be all about celebrating the wonderful woman who has given you so much, and your Mother's Day greetings, kind words, thanks, praise and hopefully a delightful gift will do exactly that. Where would we be today if it weren’t for our mum’s. God could not be everywhere all the time, so that’s why he created mum’s. His angels in disguise, born to nurture, love and protect, a noble life that should be praised and celebrated with every ounce of your being. Love your mother,

Don’t Sweat It when it comes to strategies for Meeting and Connecting with CEO’s and Directors/Owners of potential ECA companies. Firstly, you need to:

Act like you belong! A CEO has limited time, don’t waste it, be bold, know your stuff, and be confident in what you are trying to market to them. They are CEO’s – remember they, in their own brilliance have achieved a level of rank that demands successful behavior, attitude and professionalism.

Provide value first!

What makes it great!

Instead of being another leader/sponsor who expects SFI or someone else to bring their affiliates on board, this is a great example of a leader/sponsor taking charge through the use of a well-written “Welcome to SFI” e-card. Take note: this is just the introduction to their SFI journey.

Dear [………………..],

You will need to train your team on the need for social media participation, explain the audience you’re aiming to market/sell to, and explain how to establish budget/resources. The actual social platforms being used will all determine how a social media program can and should be promoted. This can be taught with a few key questions that should be a part of your social media strategy:

1. What is the primary goal? Secondary goals?
2. Where does the target audience spend their time

It is important to make affiliates understand that they need to communicate well within SFI and externally. It will help affiliates understand what other affiliates are saying. It also means that they can express their own needs and concerns. The importance of communication skills can be seen when good, quality communication occurs that prevents misunderstandings, miscommunication and conflict. It produces productive work and performance that will ultimately affect your and their SFI business commissions/profits.

Involving your spouse in your SFI business provides added advantages, while for others the consequences are dire. One key ability is that of adapting many times a day between 'personal' and 'business'. Both working on an SFI business will come with a unique set of challenges but running your business with your spouse creates an entirely different working level.

This can be a successful venture both personally and professionally but must be done correctly by following the below:

What would be a good invitation letter to send to my PSAs about the new Fast-Track Extensions program?

Before issuing an extension, I recommend that you first contact your PSA, interact with them to assess their reaction, concerns and most importantly ability to commit. Sending extensions to those who are not interested/not active is going to waste your TCredits and put unnecessary stress and pressure on your PSA, and you don’t want to scare them off nor get their hopes up to achieve something that is not within their reach should they not be able to afford the 1500 VP Standing Order.
