Hi Sebastian,
Each affiliate is different and many take longer than others to understand what to do.
a) Those that are really serious or have been in marketing, will not have to rely on their sponsor
after becoming familiar with the websites.
b) Many who sign up don't understand what marketing is and will have be more dependent on their
sponsor.
c) Some will get frustrated and leave without doing anything.
d) Many affiliates don't consider SFI & TripleClicks a business, so come and go when they feel like
it or don't have good website access so can't show up daily.
e) Those that don't understand English work harder, but do need more help.
Here Are Some Tips For Success and To Help Your Team Become Independent!
When a new affiliate first starts working on SFI, it does look confusing so give them all the information they need to start working their business as:
1) Send a Welcome E-Card message as soon as you are notified. You can find a default welcome
message at: https://www.sfimg.com/PopUp/SampleWelcomeLetter
Include your leadership gateway as: www.sfimg.com/leadership/XXXXXXXX (your ID#) and your
e-mail. This will allow them ways to contact you by either starting a chat, sending a Team mail
(at the bottom of your Blog page) or by sending an e-mail.
2) Follow up With E-Mail! with an e-mail this will let you know that you have a correct e-mail
address. Explain this is THEIR REAL business, they must show up daily (if possible)
To start the new affiliate needs to read The "Start" and The "Basics"
Then start reading The "Launchpad" each day and do the To-Do-List.
After they have finished the Launchpad it's important to start reading from the black "Training"
tab at: https://www.sfimg.com/Training/
3) New affiliates that are not fluent in English will to be aware that there is a Translator on each
page of SFI and TripleClicks. This can be a challenge when they have posted "other" instead of
their language. It's important to help them by sending message in their language.
4) Suggest new affiliates should join a2a to find friends from their country that are team leaders.
This will help them understand when a situation arises that only pertains to that country.
A great help for affiliates that do not speak English. Send them the a2a page at:
https://www.sfimg.com/a2a
5) Take the time to send regular messages as a weekly Team Mail, to Congratulate your affiliates
as they progress and reward them as they achieve.
If you are not sure what to send in your group mailing here are some samples at:
https://www.sfimg.com/PopUp/sampleMessages
There many good ideas on every page of SFI and the SFI News at: http://news.sfimg.com/
Make sure to send group mailings to all your team. Some that are inactive, may come back to
learn and work.
Since you are successful, you will really never stop coaching and helping your team, because as you learn and as the websites are updated, you will want to pass on your new knowledge.
Also, as new PSAs and CSAs join your team, you will start teaching and helping from the beginning again.
I hope this is helpful.
May you be Blessed with Success.
