When advertising for affiliates and communicating with prospective affiliates, I try to make it clear that this will be their business and they need to have internet access. This is an international online business after all.
I suspect that most of us including ECAs that bulk recruit do this but, like you Jose, we still have people with limited access computer.
The only things I can suggest for you to help them are:
- Be patient with them. They will log in irregularly and will probably struggle for a while. Be understanding and keep on encouraging and sponsoring them.
- Suggest to them that they step up their offline advertising with distributing more flyers, posting notices, speaking meetings if possible, distributing gift cards. Keep recruiting and promoting via his/her ‘warm market,’ family members, friends etc..
- Suggest to them when they do get online, really step up their online advertising, paid or unpaid. Go for the international market. Make the most of the time they are online.
- If they do not have access to a computer or other online devices, see if they can have access from their local library and internet cafes.
Whatever you do, do not fall into the trap of doing these and other activities for them. You are their sponsor, not their worker. Their businesses are theirs.
