The marketing methods recommended would be determined based on two main criteria:
1. Their ability and experience
2. Their capacity to invest in the business

Affiliates who have no previous experience in marketing can try their hands at contacting people (word of mouth), distributing pamphlets, classified advertisements as well as promotion on social media and online platforms. They would be well advised to start out by contacting friends and family who would be more receptive

There are 94 marketing methods recommended by SFI.

For new PSAs one should recommend Biginner level metods.

These are my suggestions.

Tell your friends and family to check out TripleClicks at: http://www.tripleclicks.com/xxxxxxxx put your affiliate code in place of xxxxxxxx

Refer friends and family to specific URLs of individual products. You can find a URL to a given product within the SFI Affiliate tab on each product's details page.

There are many answers to this question. There are many different ways to market SFI.
There are tons of free advertising sites on the web.
You only need to search "free classifieds" to access many outlets.
There are also many traffic exchanges that you can utilize to get your
splash pages seen.
There are social networks such as face book and twitter.
It really depends on your new PSA's experience level.
I try to customize my advice on this matter

The marketing methods we should recommend to our new PSA's begin with using word of mouth, telling friends and family about SFI is a great way to start.
Once more familiar with SFI there is a whole section devoted to "Marketing" with ready made classified ads, banners, flyers and ecards.
The Marketing section offers close to 100 different marketing methods and even more marketing aids.
The marketing methods are set up for the beginner, intermediate and for the more

I would say that during the first month the PSA's should be spending all the time they can learning the SFI business and getting used to logging in on a daily basis so as to build up their VersaPoints.

We sometimes forget that the new PSA's have so much training and reading to go through, that they really have not got time for any thing else if they are going to become good affiliates. This is a business and while you may wish to be earning points from your PSA's from the first month

Blogging on their own domain, and learning SEO and search engine marketing. Sure the start off is slower.

It takes months before traffic becomes serious enough to drive recruitment and income but in just a years time I have built up my Adsense income to cover my hosting cost and standing order, and my SFI to cover another training system I use in addition to SFI, and a bit of profit I can use to invest in paid advertising.

I am making money with my business and growing my promotion

Hello,
This is an interesting and important question! Important in the sense that if every SFI affiliates practice it, it will go a long way in reducing the problems of inactive PSAs/ CSAs and so many opt outs.
SFI as an online business with so many tools to train free of charge, requires patience to read, assimilate and apply what you have learnt into practice for success to come.
So without a proper nurturing and mentoring many PSA s will fall by wayside. Again being an online

When you get new PSAs, it is especially important to teach them how you promote for your SFI business. Most people don't know how to promote and many more don't know the basics of computers. So may I suggest that you inquire concerning the exact proficiency level of your PSAs. A total novice will benefit from studying a basic introduction to computers. More advance users will not need this support. So find out.

Once you know where your PSAs stand, recommend the methods you use that
