Lystra, as the success of your team depends on you , we need to lift up your self esteem so you are in a position to motivate your team as well.

No one in this world is born with experience. Experience is build over time through learning and a trial and error process that teaches us what is right and what is wrong in what we do.

The same goes with SFI. Non of us , even the top of the Leader-board had any experience when they started up their first online marketing business,

This is how I will put it in writing. You can make your own statements but the idea is to create excitement and motivation so they take action to elevate the number of CSAs they could receive.

Dear ~FIRSTNAME~

SFI is getting better and better !

I would like to share with you my excitement since I heard about SFI’s new CSA Rewards Program. As SFI is experiencing a significant growth in 2016, more CSAs are and will be available to be split among us. These CSAs will

It all depends on the quality of the traffic. There are many ways of generating traffic to a website including artificial traffic ( non human generated ). much traffic could come from traffic exchange sites where people are just clicking on your link to gain credits but are not interested or are not looking into your website.

To be sure that you are not wasting your money , or you are investing in good traffic start with small investments and make sure that you are tracking your results.

Gift Cards are one of the most effective tools for prospecting inn SFI.

The TripleClicks Gift Card is an amazing tool to recruit new prospects for TripleClicks store (PRMs) that can generate commissions for you (45 % of the CV ) for every purchase they make now or in the future. You also get to keep all the VP generated through sales to your PRMs.

When a PRM decides to become an SFI affiliate they will of coarse be considered as your PSAs. They will still generate commissions

I think a lot of SFI affiliates will benefit from this question.

The biggest difficulty for new affiliates is to build their PSA team from scratch. If they have no previous experience in internet marketing they need to invest in products like S-Builder or buy traffic from ECAs on TC , while they learn on how to promote their PSA capture pages.

Now it gets even harder when they are limited on budget. How many S-builder units do they need or how much traffic do they need to

I want to make sure my affiliates know about and understand the value of the new Milestone Shares. How do I do this?

The new Milestone Shares are really very valuable to all of us.

For new affiliates who are joining SFI in 2016 the Milestone Shares represent a bonus for those who upgrade their status to a team leader at a later stage in SFI and cash in the accumulated shares at each stage from BTL to DTL. I am sure SFI will inform the new affiliate with details explaining how the Milestone Shares work.

To make sure that your affiliates understand the M.S. you can send them to https://www.sfimg.com/Support/Solution?id=215372

Very good question . By saying Transfer Buying , we at SFI understand the following:

Transfer your regular ( existing ) purchases from other sources to TripleClicks.

My answer to this question is the following.

Every person has different needs and every country has different options available for SFI affiliates living there to choose from since transportation costs could play an important role for this kind of decision.

Now , a person's monthly consumption

The best way to lead by example is to direct your PSAs and CSAs to your leadership page here https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/LeadershipManager

Here your PSAs and CSAs will see your welcome message and all your SFI badges !

Make sure that you have done all you can to obtain the highest ranking and give them your the best recommendations, recognition and motivation by rewards. After all you cannot ask them to do something you were not willing to do.

It is like saying

Besides the methods that SFI promotes, what are some other goods ways to get your affiliates to the rank of EA2?

If you mean ''what can we do besides what SFI is doing to promote the rank of EA2?'' than I will try to give you an answer.

First sf all you have to make sure that your PSA or CSA wants to be an EA2 and understands all the benefits. This you need to do by communicating with them.

Once you get their attention and desire to become an EA2 your job is to give them the right advice based on each affiliate's individual needs and possibilities. Again communication is very essential.

Working Hard in SFI is in building up on your own SFI sales . This requires either a lot of time or money to advertise your TC links and generate sales. There is nothing wrong in this since as long as you identify what is working and what is not and concentrate your efforts on what really works.

Working SMART in SFI is building a good team of PSAs and CSAs and working with your movers to generate duplication. The combined efforts of your team will always surpass your capacity of working
