How can we motivate our friends to join SFI? Since motivation is an internal force, we can only stimulate their own internal motivation. We need to find out a real reason WHY they'd do more than what they're already doing to earn extra money, and then we need to validate SFI for them as the way through which they can realize their ambitions.
Most people need to simultaneously connect extra money with something tangible AND personally meaningful to them. Otherwise, extra money doesn't really have a value to them. Often times tossing out the general idea of earning extra income means having one more demand when they already feel too busy. That's when we hear, "I don't have the time for anything else."
HERE'S AN ILLUSTRATION:
Let's say extra money means becoming debt free (just for an example). This is something tangible and of personal value to anyone who has debts. Through our interaction with our friends we can relate becoming debt free to the income potential with SFI. In our conversation with that person, we can take it a step further by leading them to think about and really imagine what they would be able to do with the extra income that empowered them to become debt free COMBINED with the money they used to spend to finance their debt. Can you see where this sort of interaction goes even further in attaching a tangible and personal value to the otherwise vague concept of earning extra income/money?
Getting them to talk about their specific desires and ambitions IS the way to stimulate their motivation to becoming involved with the SFI opportunity. As they talk about these things, and reflect on them in detail, their motivation level will rise. What inspired this reaction? You did, by taking an interest in what they truly want and talking with them about how different their life could be if...they had the means to make it happen.
VALIDATING SFI
Are you successful yet. Yes, you are. You've seen some successes already. Is your success with SFI significant enough yet to bring credibility to what you're doing with SFI? It depends...If not, talk about the succeses of others in SFI. In fact, that is usually the best way to validate SFI (regardless of the level of your success). There are plenty of success stories here. Just find them and familiarize yourself with them, and then promote the successes of other people while expressing your own excitement with the opportunity.
The art of inspiring your friends' motivation coupled together with properly validating SFI will faciliate a good success rate in sponsoring the people you know.
