Hi Melvin,
This question hasn't been asked as fully as you have. "through to the third month" is a very important addition to a much asked question.
That said, there are more than one way to open a parcel(I don't believe in skinning cats).
You must first establish what funds your affiliates have to invest in SFI if any at all. I hear many people suggesting that you tell your new affiliates to get a standing order. If they have no funds to invest, this will scare off someone who may have become your best mover. It is possible to attain EA rank and to sustain it through to the second month without any financial help.
Now if your new PSA has no funds, you may want to tell them to be frugal with their VersaPoints. You have 330vp-341vp in any month excluding February for daily activities. Which leaves just over 1150vp to find in order to reach executive affiliate. The most important thing for them to do in their first month is learn the business. I know you keep on reading this but it cannot be stressed enough...Learn the basics...do the launchpad...learn the Rules of Success. Advise them that they need not think about making money in their first 2 months as this will be their training period. Building a successful business takes time. It does not happen overnight as you may have heard in the on-line ads that are in rotation right now. Once they learn how to build their down-line and how to post ads effectively, they will see how powerful this program can be and they will see that keeping their EA ranking is a small price to pay for success.
Of course, if your PSA expresses willingness to invest in a standing order then you have no worries. You need simply to help them the best way that you can by giving them all the tools that have helped get you where you are today.
To summarize:
I would tell them to focus on the training for now. Try to build trust so that they will have confidence in following your lead. Show them that this is not a scam and that it really works but they will not be successful in their first month or second, or even their third but by this time they will start to see the rewards of their efforts.
As a member of SFI for only 3 months, this is the best advise I can give. I am sure you will get a much more detailed answer further down the line but I hope this will help you in the meantime and provide you with at least one angle from which to approach this topic.
Wishing you all the best!
