Beginning is always tricky so you should be careful in first month because you need to learn all the thing you need to know when listing product for sale.

There are few things to do in first month as getting to know all the ECA options that you have. You should setup your profile and logo.

You should organize all the products you want to list in your store.
Calculate all the shipping fees and take a look in other ECA-s to see what prices they have in their stores as well

What should a new ECA do and not do in their first month?

First and above all, since you registered as an ECA, your goal is to sell your own products, thus you should submit as many products for sale as you can. You can also sell products from other businesses as long as they are in line with the rules set by TripleClicks.

If there is a demand for it in your country, you may also request to be a local reseller of SFI products and set yourself up for local pay options. There

DO post products immediately

DO NOT expect others to carry your business for you...advertise daily.

DO put on specials and send to your contacts, asking your upline and A2A friends to help promote

DO NOT take long to ship any orders you get...process fast...testimonials are your best advertising.

DO something every day.

ONCE you are approved as ECA you have a perfect setup to make money here online, and branch out and become a success at sales

Good question for all Affiliates and ECA's Its not first month, it should be always....

Do's:
1. Quality of the product that is to be sold should be of international acceptable quality.
2. Ascertain exact shipping charges for various countries.
3. Detailed description of the product and history to be very transparent.
4. Should be in a position to follow business ethics.
5. Stick to delivery terms.
6. Always respect TripleClicks for creating such opportunity

For their first month, a new ECA should spend time setting up their business. They should also make sure that they have enough products for sale. They must also put aside a small savings to get some business cards or postcards printed for local advertising.

An ECA must not ever rip off any customers in their first month, or any timeframe thereafter. Doing so can result in that ECA's credibility being shot, and their privileges terminated. Those are two nasty consequences that one should

I think there's not much difference in what should a new ECA do and not do in their first month and any other following month.
When they become ECA they should list their products,write an interesting description and use good photos of the products to attract as many potential customers as possible.If their customers contact them with additonal questions they should answer ASAP.And when they receive an order notification they should complete it ASAP.
They can also use Hot Deals to attract

For every new affiliate the information that needs to be consumed to understand the business model, work ethic and commitment required to perform at SFI - not to mention the e-marketing skills that you will learn to promote your business can be overwhelming.

If you have achieve ECA status in your first month, you will have spent the time to consume some of the information, but there is still a long road ahead.

As you begin to build your down line, the important thing is to focus

With the overwhelming amount of information on the SFI site, it is easy to do too much at one time in the excitement of it all. Besides, we all want to succeed as fast as we can so at times, we try to do too much.

That said, there are ways to keep yourself grounded and everything in perspective. I will attempt to outline and offer some tips I think may help.

**Continue to focus on retaining your ECA status by doing everything you can on your To-Do list.

One of the things that I have noticed about my ECA's when they join is that they always want to instantly start making money. They start off trying to put EVERYTHING in their store on their website and basically overload the Market with their stuff.

My suggestion would be to start off by studying what types of things sell most on TC. Once you have gotten a chance to see the "hot" items, start your ECA business to sell some of these "hot" items.
