In creating exposure to your business so that you can effectively sponsor affiliates, you want to advertise through conventional means as well as on the internet.
Advertisements direct traffic to your gateways, prestigious domain names, and a website if you have one.
Your gateways, and pretigious domain names (which redirect to your gateway) will sponsor people. They will either "join" for free, or close the window. As SFI training references point out, a large number of these are merely looking aroun--even if it is that one time only for only 5 or 10 minutes.
The strategy here, is that you have a chance to contact them through email provided they opted in/whitelisted SFI. Possibly through a series of letters you may reach them; or you may not.
Having a website is valuable because you can do many things with it. Obviously you want to refer people to SFI. You can convey that message even if you have one page!
One of the benefits of the webpage is that allows you to create trust and rapport with your leads. Internet networking experts point out that there is a better success rate with affiliates if they first can somehow feel comfortable with you and trust you.
Gaining a contact's confidence and trust can be done through keeping a blog on your website (with fresh and useful information), and through having them opt in to an email campaign. The email contain should provide valuable and helpful information for your contact. Perhaps you can point out the value of income diversification or time leveraging. Information about retirement preparation, business ownership, or networking/affiliate marketing. The information should be useful. As they read your email campaign tidbits, they will gain confidence in you, and you will begin to gain their trust--this is called, "building credibility."
At some point you can begin to direct them to your SFI gateway. Suggest that they join AND contact you with any questions. Once the credibility has been established, you will demonstrate your personal interest by inviting them to contact you as they join.
A website allows you to build some sort of relationship between you and your contact, it allows you to garner, not only quality leads, but "ready" affiliates!
There is good information in SFI's TRAINING section on Internet Income.
