Beginning in January 2016, you must have at least one (1) EA2 in order to qualify for the rank of BTL. Therefore, after this month (December), no amount of AVP will help you unless you have a team!

However, for this month only, aside from the daily TODO list, you can get bonus AVP (1 for each TCredit spent) by bidding at Pricebenders's auctions and/or playing Eager Zebra games. And you can also win AVP in the Daily Grand drawing and/or E365 drawings. But the bottom line is, winning AVP is not guaranteed, and bonus AVP requires a rather high investment in TCredits. However, if you WANT to make that investment because you enjoy bidding in auctions and playing the games, do it!

In my estimation, it is much better to focus on building your team. Then your rank of BTL really means something and you have the advantage of matching VP from your active team members. Of course, there is no reason why you can't do both. Part of leadership is your full participation in the TripleClicks experience. Lead by example, play and win, but remember that you must have at least one EA2 to advance in rank.



I hope this helps answer your question.

This is a good question. Both methods are valuable for gaining more sign-ups and therefore both should be employed in building your business. However, the question is: "...which will provide the MOST value." In order to answer this question properly, we must define what is meant by value. The value of something is its relative worth, importance, or usefulness. The fact is that a co-op offers one kind of worth where a blog offers another.

In a co-op you are joining forces with others on your team to purchase advertising with the goal of attracting new sign-ups to SFI. Your success will vary depending on the effectiveness of the ads you run. Ads, in general, must be brief and to the point, highlighting the benefits of SFI. Many times people will sign up with SFI due to a well written ad, but once they get on the affiliate site their perception changes because of the immensity of material they are faced with. At first sight, and without patience and desire, the SFI website can be overwhelming. Writing a blog is a different way of advertising.

When one starts a blog, the goal is the same as for a co-op; to attract new sign-ups. However, with a blog you have the opportunity of attracting long-term readers, that is, if you have something interesting to say. Unlike ads, with a blog you can develop ideas, tell stories, and give illustrations about the benefits of SFI. You can talk about TripleClicks, PriceBenders auctions, games and contests, as well as the compensation plan. In this way, it can be more effective in enticing people to become affiliates. When they finally join and enter the affiliate site, they will already have an idea of what to expect because of what they learned from your blog, and perhaps, be less intimidated and find it easier to get started with their new business.

So, to answer the question, in my opinion a blog offers more value. You may attract fewer PSAs, but those you DO attract may tend to be more active.

This is a great question. The answer really depends on your goals in SFI. Is it your intention to build a business with residual income, to build a team of affiliates who you are helping to become successful, resulting in your own financial freedom as well as theirs? Or, do you simply want to earn extra money?

The fact is, the SFI PPA program is optional, and earns you a finders fee for each referral (sign-up) you get for SFI. In other words, you must have a marketing program in place which attracts people to sign-up as new SFI affiliates. You may have noticed that many of the top enrollers in SFI can get upwards of 100 sign-ups per day, although this number varies. The pay for SFI PPA can be up to $10 per referral depending on the quality of that referral (SFI determines this)! But consider that 100 or more sign-ups per day at $10 each, or even $5 average, is not bad.

However, the reality is that every week/month will vary. Depending on the effectiveness of your ads, it is feast or famine. Also, remember that you must be consistent in your efforts daily. When you stop advertising, the money stops. Additionally, keep in mind that achieving that level of daily referrals is no easy task. It will take time and money to find and maintain the best ads and the best places to advertise. This doesn't happen overnight!

So, again, the question is: Do you want to go to all that work, time, money, and effort, for the possibility of a few hundred dollars per week/month? Or would you rather put the same time effort and money into attracting new referrals into your own business? Think of it this way. What kind of income could you expect if you learned to market your business in a way that brought in 100 new PSAs every day? That's 3000 every month! Do you think you might find at least 1 out of 3000 that would become seriously active like you? After a year or two, or even 5, what kind of residual income could that create for you? How many people could you help to achieve financial freedom?

The choice is yours. SFI PPA is a great way to earn extra money, but building a team has the potential for creating significant residual income that will surpass SFI PPA by far.

Hope this is helpful. Good luck in your efforts with SFI.
