Lets expand on this a little bit because the Affiliate Profile is just one part of the Affiliate Snapshot we all receive when we sponsor a new PSA. From here you will also be able to see if he/she is logged in.
First is his/her name and knowing where they reside can be beneficial for different reasons. Knowing what time it is in their region will help with scheduling for online training sessions. Knowing his/her primary and secondary language will be important. You may have to resort to using translation tools. Above all else; "communication is key."
If you and your PSA both have Gmail it could prove to be beneficial. I always add them to my Google Plus Circle called "SFI Affiliates." And keep the chat open because you will be able to see if they are available to chat with you. One of my PSAs I just received from Bid and Build has contacted me after I followed these steps. He provided me his Skype ID and we proceeded over there and had a chat session. I also gained a new Facebook Friend. Now he is working and moving up on my Movers Page.
The affiliate profile is useless if your PSA does not log in or engage you in some form of communication. If that line of communication is open and he/she is engaging you you will be able to expand on their affiliate profile as more is shared with you about their background - Profession, Education, and Travels etc.
Once a bond and a trust is developed your PSA will be less likely to fold on you and SFI.
What's most important is your ability as a sponsor. Once you know their affiliate profile and have expanded on it via communications you will need to know where to direct your affiliate to receive the best guidance to overcome his/her deficiencies and achieve goals. You must be able to recognize your team members needs and have the knowledge and know how to provide them guidance or direction.
For the sake of illustration we will examine two areas your affiliate might be challenged or deficient. One area is when your affiliate is in need of changing his/her employee driven mindset to that of an entrepreneurial driven mindset. In such an instance you can go to the Forum and type "employee mindset" in the search and Wow! there you have what they need. Now all you need do is provide them that info.
A second challenge is your PSA may need help improving his/her writing skills. This is vitally important to the success of your team. Perfect your writing skills by answering Ask SC questions. You need to be an effective communicator. Don't resort to copy and paste (plagiarism) methods to replace your own deficiencies. Instead turn your weaknesses into your greatest assets. Read everything in SFI. Study the SFI Top Authors writings and visit the Forum for all the same reasons stated above. Always read the rules before proceeding.
Like planting seeds. You will need to enrich the soil and provide the right environment. All the conditions needed for your plants to take deep root and produce much fruit.
