The majority of my downline joined SFI without any experience in network marketing. As a sponsor and Team Leader, I always made it clear that they have started to own a real business and that there is work involved. I let them know right away through my welcome message that I would be always available to fully support them to ensure their success.
I assume that every sponsor and Team Leader knows his/her responsibility of training, coaching, mentoring and supporting his/her downline. Your question could mean, you’re lacking confidence or you don’t feel that you’re getting all the support you need to grow your SFI business.
I think you should consider the mindset of being an entrepreneur. People who pioneered in SFI, who successfully run their own SFI business until now may have nothing to depend on as they get started.
When figuring out your own approach to the challenges of running your SFI business, it can help to learn from the experiences of others, but you should not be depending alone on that resource. Instead you can also do the following:
- You’re maximizing your potential of growing your SFI business which means, you’re not missing a single day performing your To-Do List, consistently investing on your training and widening of your knowledge base to acquire the skills needed for sponsoring, maintaining your EA status and moving up to TL rank according to The Plan (emphasized support of EA2s, BTLs, STLs, etc)
- The intensity level of your activities should be clearly seen through your participation in EZ games acquiring EZ badges.
- Actively participating in SFI Forum by sharing your knowledge and experience, asking and answering questions for the development and growth of your SFI business.
- Regularly contributing to the Ask SC by asking/answering questions to the best of your knowledge.
- You should establish close relationship with your upline by being responsive to his/her messages asking questions or giving your comments. By just giving your feedback of “Thank you” for congratulating you on your Daily Grand winnings or re-qualifying to EA/TL rank will make him/her feel good and connected with you.
If you’ve been passionate and enthusiastic in growing your business, you’ll get noticed by your upline. As an example, my upline posted on Stream, congratulating me for reaching 500k votes. This clearly shows that upline notices your achievements, which gives you the occasion to communicate your concerns to him/her.
Generally, Sponsors/Team Leaders are responsible for training and supporting their downlines. It is their best interest to give their maximum support to their affiliates. Both Sponsors/Team Leaders and downlines need to have mutual understanding in regards to training and supporting. Sponsors/Team Leaders must have the skill to coach, mentor and train their affiliates, showing them how to lay the groundwork, the initial phase of their affiliates’ journey with SFI. They can then provide training and support in a regular basis giving their tips and advice to their downlines. But it is the duty for every individual affiliate to dig deeper and utilize all the resources provided by their upline extensively.
Additionally your upline is not the only source for support; you have the SFI desk 24 hours, 7 days a week, SFI Forum, Ask SC and A2A friends.
