Congratulations !
Finally, someone asks The KEY Question !
So,lets start :
1.You need to know that out there ,there does not exist such a thing as multiple ways . As a matter of fact there is only THE way !
2.Give yourself about 6 months or more(if you think it is necessary) to become a (very) good affiliate yourself.So you will be able to teach your new affiliates how to become good affiliates.
Based on your knowledge they will be able to learn in an easier way,by duplication.
3. Believe and tell them that SFI is THE place to be , if they seriously consider to succeed and make a real income by working from home.
Indeed they would have a hard time searching for a program that delivers that much of support,knowledge and assistance as SFI.Once they realize that,they are ready to follow you,because you created the trust and you provide them day after day,by example the road to follow,that lead to success.
4.If you have reached the point of self-confidence that has lead you by applying rules 1,2 and 3 ,to the knowledge that only treating your business as a real business can guarantee the necessarily growth.Then you know and can teach your affiliates that without the proper investments , there is no such a thing as an effective growth possible.
So only when you reach the point that they understand that and also they are ready to apply those rules ,only than you will know they are good affiliates.
5.Based on the above , it is not so difficult to understand that it is easier to answer this question than bringing it in practice.
Bringing us to the question "How to find affiliates"?
It is clear that recruiting good,new affiliates suggest that one already knows where to find affiliates.
a) within SFI ,you probably know already that some sponsors offer their downline some free affiliates, sometime combined with a contest,lets say as an incentive. S-Builder guarantees you a few affiliates as each month you buy at least one S-Builder,some of you uplines probably offer you the possibility to join their co-op, and you will get your shares of the results made by the co-op for that particular period.In TripleClicks you also find some programs that offer you to buy a certain amount of new affiliates( I suggest to read carefully the delivery conditions).
b)Apart of the SFI/TC options there are on the web a lot of alternative possibilities .
The basic rule is here " get more traffic to your websites or blog(s)".
For searching free affiliates you can post in countless places your ads and direct the people to your SFI landing page(s).You can do this mainly by posting free classifieds,traffic exchange sites and/or social sites.
The advantage to use options where you have to buy traffic,or affiliates is that in the best cases you are able to select some extra 's ,in order to "pre select" the affiliates you can expect. So there are programs where you can select age,country,... . Keep in consideration that buying traffic is cheaper but with lesser targets than buying from affiliates sites.
You may have noticed that I do not recommend here particular sites.The reason is that it depends of different factors what will turn out as the best option for each of us individual,and I mean factors such as the amount of money you want/can invest,how fast you want to grow ,how sure you are that you are ready to handle gigantic amounts of traffic,etc...
The only sensible suggestion :
As soon as you reach your EA ranking start testing out as many possibilities you can handle.Test each of them during equal periods of at least 21 days.Try to start each of them at the same day of the week (example all on a Monday between 10 and 12 am ,check the results the last day also all at the same time),note that your test is not necessary equally ending with the advertisement period.
Make selections based on the best results combined with those you feel the most comfortable with.Now check out if you reach the monthly growth that you are targetting .
After your 5th or 6 month of activity you should finally make a plan ,that support your growth,based on your earlier results combined with the growth that you are targetting.
As an example: If you are planning to have in month L,20 good (EA) affiliates ,than you must be sure to have at least at the end of month F 5 active EA2's or higher.
Finally, you should know that no one can make a plan for you.
First of all,nobody can predict the exact performances each individual affiliate will perform month after month after month,so at the end of each month you should control if your plan still stands , then take actions that suits you the best ,either slow down your target or increase the number of affiliates to recruit.
I hope that this explanation will help you to understand the importance of becoming a great affiliate yourself,and that there is not such a thing like just buying your way to the top,or just been blessed with the assets of a super salesman .
It is the right balance between the two, that will lead you to your top success.
But as I said before, its easier to formulate an answer to that question ,than to bring it in practice.
Success & Remember:
"Winners never quit,quitters never win "
