I am assuming that the demotion is due to loss of rank because of the new requirements to qualify for Team Leader, set to go into effect in January 2016, but my answer can apply to any kind of demotion or setback.
If your affiliates feel that they have been demoted, I would try to help them figure out why this has happened and work with them to find ways to regain their rank. But most of all I would tell them that they should not consider this a failure on their part because it is not; it is just a slight setback.
I would also explain that a demotion is an opportunity to take a small step back in order to take a giant leap forward. A demotion, however unpleasant, takes the pressure off and gives them a chance to rethink their strategy and make the necessary improvements.
Any serious entrepreneur will have to face not one but several setbacks on their road to success, but this should never deter them from achieving their goals. On the contrary, setbacks should energize them and strengthen their resolve to do better than before.
