I dont think there is any clear, cut, straight foward answer to this question. The number of times an affiliate contacts his or her sponsor or co-sponsor is usually dependent on the level of their assimilation/understanding of What SFI is all about.
Some 'get it'faster than others therefore need less directions.
That said you should not hesitate to contact your sponsor or co-sponsor as the case may be, when the need arises.
