First thing when I get notice of a new PSA, I look to see if he has gathered any VP. My welcome letter will reflect what he has already done. Those with several hundred VP have probably figured out how to go about getting started, those with less may need encouragement.Then I check to see his To Do List to get a feel of his strengths and weaknesses.Some people do the activities, but balk at the reading and quizes.I send a welcome letter and if he has not earned very many more VP in a few days, I send a second letter offering encouragement and my help.
Some of my correspondence is divided up as to how successful my PSAs have been recently, and in the past. Has anything happened in SFI since the last log-in? Has a group of them been successful in reaching a goal? Are they at the stage where they really need some coaching to make it over that second month hump?
As far as my CSAs go, I also look at their VP and To Do List, and their sponsor's profile. A very new sponsor who is not yet a BTL past the first month may not be able to help his PSAs. The same with long term sponsors who are EA or below, may not be interested in helping their PSAs. One the other hand, some of my CSAs are doing gret and I am assuming that their sponsor is helping them. My letter to all my "CSAs states that their sponsor has the first responsibility to them, but that I am available to help anytime they need it.
