It is not easy to convince a person to change their mind once their mind is made up, and they also have themselves convinced to quit. Persuasion by another to convince continuance in SFI must be presented early on. We can not afford to wait for our Affiliates to decide to quit. We must share with them why we keep going, and share with them how to becoming more productive and persistent will help them see the progress over time.
Working with them from the beginning will also help them see you are also serious. What has happened for most new Affiliates, is once they are enrolled many Sponsors feel they have done their job, and SFI or TripleClicks will complete the rest for them.
This is true in many cases, but to a new person it is very important they have a Sponsors attention at least for several months. This will give the impression a sponsor is also serious, and is caring enough to provide support. It is very devastating to a new Affiliate who can never reach a Sponsor, or never hears from a Sponsor once joined.
So if this is happening too much; "going to quit because nothing is coming of his efforts and hard work?" we must be much slower in making sure we are filling in these gaps before our Affiliates reach this point. This means we must have the time to build relationships.
In reality we also must realize how many new Affiliates we can adequately sponsor in a effective and efficient manner. The average is about 3-5 per month, if we are communicating with them along the way what we do online.
Even just asking questions to understand different cultures of those outside our region, talking about climatic differences, or even showing interests in the cares most important to our future Affiliates is part of building relationships.
Then we have many tools provided for us here. It is important to know ourselves those tools work and how they work to keep a new Affiliate engaged.
So in conclusion, I would say spend more time at the beginning of enrollment building relationships first and express the long term value in learning how to do the business more than how the business can earn income. Building relationships along the way, and strengthening these relationships first will help eliminate these doubts.
Thanks for allowing me to share.
