I think that most people are like me, where they are looking for a place to make enough money, so that even in the first month there would be enough to help pay the bills and buy the groceries. A job of necessity not a whim. I know I was searching online for an at home job that would pay me a legitimate wage, not pocket change and I stumbled upon SFI.
That very reason as to why they join is probably the reason they don't stay with it. They are not looking at the long term benefits but only now, this month. They need a good sized payout after their first month. They build their versa points in that first month looking for a great commission from their shares in tripleclicks and become disappointed when it's not what they expected or needed and therefore loose hope and move on.
These are ones that don't have the patience or vision to see the long term benefits of the future by staying with SFI. So how can we help our new affiliates to stick with it. Share your vision of the future. Send encouraging letters through group PSA, individual team letters and stream. Give commendation with each step of growth you notice. Encourage building a team, give suggestions, help them get started advertising. Talk about how good the possibilities can be. Make SFI personal, a place with real people, doing real work.
There will always be those that grasp the concept and those that don't. That's why each one of us needs to continually build our own team, because there are times you just can't get them to stay. But that's okay because you are always advertising and having new affiliates to work with!
