Honestly, the choice between TCredits Welcome and Cash Welcome is a trade-off with a number of facets you can consider:
* With TCredits Welcome, you can choose to give 3 to 9 TCredits to your new PSAs, which is more flexible than the Cash Welcome's one-dollar value.
* On the other hand, the TCredits awarded have to be used within 24 hours. This can either: (a) encourage the new PSA to explore TripleClicks, place a member listing and start earning money, play with the games, and download music, or (b) add to the PSA's sense of being overwhelmed and wind up being a waste of TCredits. Given that the TCredits Welcome is also slightly more expensive, this may seem like something of an added risk.
* The Cash Welcome, on the other hand, has as its only real downside that the one dollar sits passively where the TCredits encourages immediate action.
My own preference is for the Cash Welcome because I use something the following strategy: In addition to the Cash Welcome, when I send out my welcome e-mail, I offer my PSAs an unspecified "welcome gift" if they reply back to me immediately. That gift will be in the form of a standard TCredit assignment; I will then, as part of their training, teach them how to use those TCredits to place member listings so that they can start earning money straight away and find value in being an SFI affiliate. When they feel like they're already making money, it ensures their engagement.
