“Focusing on the positive”.

"It seems that every six months more or less the question is posed in the forum regarding our teams. The question stems around the inactivity of their team. “Why” won’t they do more? Etc, etc…. or how can I encourage them? What rewards can I offer?

Well the responses run from, giving gift certificates, t-credits, etc. etc…….

For MOST of us, MYSELF included this is unreasonable! Why? We joined SFI to earn MONEY, not give it away! Let’s face it, we live in a society of handouts, people expecting and believing that everyone else owes them something. I’ve given away gift certificates, T-credits, I’ve done all the above to, “INCENTIVIZE” affiliates. BUT, and this is the BIG one! When affiliates don’t log into their accounts and work their business these incentives are futile.

Most affiliates are looking for, “JOBS”. SFI is a business! So how can we help affiliates? Change their mindset. However, affiliates have to be “OPEN” to CHANGE! They have to have a willingness to learn. Without that, all of us are paddling upstream. My point is this, don’t beat yourself up for someone else’s lack of a willingness to learn and/or change.

Focus on the affiliates who are asking for help, LOGGING IN DAILY, working their business. Focus on the positive. Here’s another interesting fact, for those in your downline, PSA’s and CSA’s, if your affiliates are not logging in daily, they're not reading this! LOL!

We have to laugh at the ridiculous sometimes, clear away the negativity and focus on the positive, that’s when you are going to see a change in your organization, you’re going to start attracting and recruiting positive people in your organization.

When I’m out speaking with people, in general, not even about SFI, if I get a sense that the person is negative and has a “VICTIM” mentality, I get as far away from them as possible! I’m not wasting my time on convincing this person, (family member or not) about SFI.
I’m not nor will I ever surround myself with this mentality!

There are a ton of books in all the languages of the world that speak about this principle. “Like attracts like.” So what are you attracting? Often times the biggest change is in ourselves. I have to remind myself, “What am I attracting in this world?”

This answer is also a reminder to myself to stay, “focused on the positive” Focus on what I want and let the universe bring that to me.

As a team leader I convey to my downline that SFI is a lifestyle change and this is......

WHY?

SFI’s business model rewards ALL affiliates for taking daily actions. What has always amazed me about, “Human Nature” is that we expect something for nothing. Which goes to an Economics 101 saying, “TANSTAAFL”, There Aint No Such Thing As A Free Lunch”.

The bigger question is, “What are you doing to be successful in YOUR SFI business?” As a team leader and/or EA2 with a downline, we are unable to get up every morning and make our downline log in to SFI and TAKE Daily actions.

Now that would be an excellent idea for a computer programmer to implement. I know there is someone out there with enough programing savvy to develop a program where as soon as someone turns on his/her computer it would immediately open up to their SFI website. And also wouldn’t allow them to check his/her email and/or social media until they completed their daily actions!

Until that happens the best we can do as Team Leaders/EA’s is to assist them to change their hearts and minds and, “Consciously Take Daily Action.” The most difficult aspect of human nature is forming a new habit.

Many experts have written about this topic and that advice is continually ignored, why? IT TAKES CONSCIENCE DAILY ACTION!

Society has evolved into the, “Worker Bee” mentality. Get up, go to work (a JOB, Just Over Broke) and rinse and repeat. What happens is we fall into a rut and start thinking the victim mentality. We also become complacent and start living unconsciously.

What is the victim mentality? Blaming outside circumstances and justifying those circumstances as to why we are unsuccessful.

What is living unconsciously? Being reactive instead of proactive! Reacting to our environment and society and pleasing everyone else, not stepping outside our comfort zones, (Friends and Family) because we don’t want to offend them! Why? Because they’ll tell you, “Yeah, I tried that once and it was because of X,Y,Z that it didn’t work. It’s always someone and/or something else at fault. (Victim mentality)

So here’s the game plan:

Be a Victor, not a Victim!

Accept responsibility for our actions!

Start living consciously!

Plan out our day, decide how much time we can devote to our SFI business, you can complete your daily actions in less than 15 minutes a day.

If your friends are telling you can’t do something, change your friends.

If your family’s telling you need to stop that computer business and pay more attention to me, remind them that your DAILY actions are going to afford more vacations, more money, more abundance, etc and that if they cared about you, about us as a family, that you can either pitch in and help or leave me alone for at least an half hour, hour, etc. Include them in your plans and explain to them how this will benefit the family in the long run!

Give up the T.V. social media, video games etc for an hour and devote to SFI.

Start filling up your mind with motivational books, tapes, etc. An old computer saying, “GIGO”, Garbage In, Garbage Out. Feed your mind, you take care of your body right? Take care of your mind. Again, turn off the T.V. (Mostly Murder, Mayhem, etc… All the negative aspects of human nature) and focus on the positive aspects of human nature.

You need at the very minimum 10 minutes to complete your red tabs! Many of us have limited time in our daily lives, however, when you log in and complete your daily, weekly and monthly red tabs you will have accomplished this task at the very minimum! It also shows your upline that you are a mover and motivated! Your benefit is that you will stay in your upline's mover tab and he/she will be more willing to provide his/her time to support you. So many affiliates don't even attempt to complete this one simple task. I always ask my downline, "how much time do you spend on Facebook, Twitter, watching T.V. and/or playing video games? Well, how much time do you spend? Look at it this way, we use conversion shopping to gain VP at Tripleclicks, yes? That is you replace the current products you use at home with TC products. So use the time that you would spend on other activities towards SFI. So the REAL QUESTION you should ask yourself is, "How can I best use my time to conduct my SFI business?" What other activities can I decrease the amount of time in doing and use that time towards logging in and learning my SFI business? Also look at it this way, is Facebook, Twitter, your T.V. and /or video games going to pay you for the time you spend in front of those platforms? By looking at it this way, how much time can YOU spend towards you SFI business?

All the best in your success!

Personally I like to reassign affiliates to an affiliate in the same country. Especially if the affiliate is not yet an EA2 and is performing well. Logging in daily, completing their daily,weekly and monthly actions. This not only gives them a chance to earn an extra 120
VP for the month for sending out a weekly newsletter, it also teaches them how to start communicating with their downline in their native tongue without worrying about miscommunication due to any language differences and confusion in the translation process. Also I think a stronger bond among persons from the same country.

I think if you have as much experience as you say you do that until you get your feet wet learning how to advertise online that your personal experience will serve you better and that your offline methods will be very successful for you.


I believe you should do what you do best for getting new affiliates. What will really be helpful is when you find an affiliate who has the experience with online marketing so you can share knowledge, information and online advertising techniques.

1. Co-op manager. A great place to start awarding your downline for completing daily actions. Let your downline know that when they consistently log in daily for ten days or more that you will add them to your advertising co-op. of course ten days is only an example. Ehats important is motivating your downline to log in daily!

2. S-builder is another great tool for youse and any of your downline members. As team leader you can use the co-op builder for motivating downline to (once again) log in daily and complete their daily actions. The way you use this is by running a contest for your downline, PSA's and CSA's and awarding them by re-assigning your downline members that you received from the S-builder.

3. Hit tracking and use of key codes are a great to measure your advertising effectiveness.

All the best to your success!
