This is an excellent question. I would definitely say that this will not happen overnight. Do not get discouraged and you will see results. If you do not have a budget at all or a small budget for paid advertising, you can start with free sites to advertise. This can include traffic exchanges, viral safe lists, and classifieds. You will want to check out how to put tracking codes on your ads. I personally use a 2 digit code for traffic exchanges, a three digit code for safelist mailers, and a four digit code for classifieds. You can use the marketing aids here at SFI to advertise on any of these types of sites. Personally I usually run 2-3 ads per site at a time. One for the SFI opportunity, one for TripleClicks, and one for ECA. With the tracking codes, you will see at the end of the week which ads are getting hits and which are not. You will also be able to tell by those tracking codes which ads are effective. Personally, I keep track of all of this stuff in a Microsoft Excel worksheet. This way I know what site and what ad has which tracking code. Make sure to check you hit tracking here on SFI before Sunday to see your results. I hope this helps and best of luck with your advertising and your SFI business.
