I do not have any PSA's that I know personally who I could speak to face to face, so all my communication with my PSA's is via email.
In my experience, unless a PSA is committed to SFI from the start, trying to communicate and find out a little about them or their goals, let alone getting a response, is like drawing blood from a stone.
When you get one of the rare gems, it is not difficult to discuss their goals, as they are open to sharing their needs and receiving suggestions, help and direction. Being realistic and honest with your PSA's is vital, as they need to know that fortunes are not made overnight, and especially not with little or no effort from themselves! Without committment and perseverance they will not reach those goals.
Many of my PSA's have joined SFI because they have financial difficulties and are therefore unable to commit to a monthly budget, so it is a challenge to come up with alternatives to buying TCredits, Affiliates etc. There are many ways like advertising for free, blogging, flyers and so on, but I have found that unless money comes in fairly quickly, they lose interest and drop out.
I try to encourage my team to give themselves at least a year. Most new businesses do not make a profit in their first year, so they need to be realistic in setting their short or long-term goals.
