Without knowing how one is recruiting others into SFI, I would have to say that a screening process might be in order. A little explanation beforehand in the splash page or gateway page could alert the potential affiliate of the daily responsibilities involved in being successful in SFI before they sign up. You could go as far as letting them know that this program is not a get rich overnight process. In reality, as Gery Carson states, it takes a few years to build up a team of executive affiliates, and it also involves purchasing items at TripleClicks and setting up your own store to sell your items. This does not happen overnight, but the stability of this program is better than most of the "fly by night" programs being promoted on the Internet. Although SFI is presented as a program that requires little financial outlay, in my opinion, to be successful requires one to spend a limited budget on promoting your SFI business and making purchases, such as T-credits, PSAs, gift certificates for your achievers, and some advertising expenses.

I mentioned to my sponsor the notion of having live public meetings in your area to present the SFI opportunity. This would afford one the opportunity to outline exactly what this business opportunity involves and exactly how one would work the business. Then, the prospect goes into the business as an affiliate with his or her eyes open, knowing what to expect and what is expected of them to be successful. He seemed to like this idea.

In my limited experience in surfing the Internet, I have become aware of just how many individuals are looking for a quick fix without much effort on their part. SFI is definitely not a quick fix solution. It requires work and dedication. Rewards will come to those who understand this. Gery stated that some individuals don't make any substantial money until their third year ins SFI. I guess the question to pose the prospect is, 'Is your financial future worth spending three years working a proven program to attain your financial goals?
