Flea markets or craft markets in your area are the best places to go to recruit affiliates face to face.
You can go as a market seller or as a market shopper.
1. As a Market Seller (even at just a small one-day local market):
As a market seller you don't even have to approach people; people will approach you. Flea market or craft market shoppers will come and browse at your stall.
You could be selling whatever you like, or you could be selling some products you purchased at TripleClicks. No matter what you are selling, you can talk to people browsing at your stall - be sure to check with the market organizers that it would be okay with them that you do this, and that you hand out business cards or pamphlets from your stall mostly unrelated to what you are selling at your stall.
You can pop a pamphlet or business card (or both) into a packet with the item or items a customer purchased at your stall. When you hand the customer their packet you can very briefly say: "Thanks, and, oh, by the way, I popped a business card in there too, about something else I do that may be of interest to you. There's a website you can check out, so go take a look if you get the chance." And they may ask you more about what it is. There may even be other customers waiting for you to finish off with that customer before you can help them - and they'll overhear what you are saying.
Also, as a flea market or craft market seller, one makes friends with other market sellers. Familiar faces selling at the same markets you sell at are not just familiar faces - they're people trying to earn income on their own, from their own efforts - something along the lines of what SFI affiliates are ultimately doing. Chat to them about "this additional way to earn an income" for themselves.
2. As a Market Shopper
As a craft market or flea market shopper, you can:
- hand over a business card or pamphlet of your own when a seller gives you theirs, and then tell the seller what it's about
- hand over a business card or pamphlet when you pay for what you bought at the stall, and then tell the seller what it's about
- hand over a business card or pamphlet when you take whatever you bought at the stall, and then tell the seller what it's about
- start up a conversation with the seller, asking if they're interesting in an additional way to work for themselves
- wait until there are some other customers at the stall too before starting up a conversation about SFI
Conclusion:
There are many opportunities to recruit affiliates face to face at craft markets or flea markets.
