Since we are working with human beings, unfortunately we cannot assure anything. When we develop our downline, its a combination of luck of the draw and training. Some people, by nature are just lazy and are looking for a quick buck. They sign up, realize that this is not a get rich quick scheme and become inactive. We cannot do anything about these type of people. Now, other people are willing to work. They are self motivators and need little to no guidance. They will log in regularly, do their tasks, sponsor others etc. The majority of the human population fall somewhere in between the two extremes listed above. They will work and do what they need to, but they need a little push. They may be skeptical about the business or they just do not know where to start. This part of the business is the luck of the draw. Unless you know the affiliate personally, you have no idea of which type a person a signup is, until they actually sign up.

This is where training comes in. Lead by example. This is the most important thing. We have do the things that we want our PSAs doing. We have to log in daily. We have to have a standing order. We have achieve and maintain EA status (at minimum).

As to get our teams to duplicate, we have to keep in contact with them. Use the PSA and CSA mailer regularly but not too often. If you notice that someone has not been active, send them a e card or an email message to encourage them or just to let them know that you are available to help them. Acknowledge the achievements of your team members.

Although you cannot guarantee that someone will work, you can give them the tools that they need. They just have to make the choice to use them. Remember the saying, you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make him drink.
