Hi,
Good Day!
It is always good to advertise your SFI business online to expand your network and build your own team to duplicate your performance.

You may always utilize and maximize the Marketing Ads made available for all of us in https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/MarketingCenter

But keep in mind that when you advertise your SFI business, you must put caution in everything that you do and post.

Here are some tips I can give you on WHAT TO AVOID in CREATING/PROMOTING your SFI Ads:

1. DON'T - Forget your budget - A more focused part of developing an advertising campaign should be your overall budget. It's easy to get excited with advertising on the web because of the instant results but without fine-tuning your budget you can quickly get burned. Although there are many free Advertising website that you can choose from, allocating budget for advertising for your SFI business is always a good move. This is similar to maintaining your own business to keep it running.

2. DON'T - Abuse your copy - The advertising copy is what you have to run with; if you abuse your copy by stating false information you'll quickly waste money and cause a black eye for your branding which is very difficult to overcome.

3. DON'T - Duplicate content. Google has actually started to punish websites that have duplicated content. Your website design and social media postings must be fresh and original to achieve good results.

4. DON'T - Run ads without testing - Every ad you place on the web should be thoroughly tested within a smaller segment of the market before you launch it full-scale. Testing your advertising message will help you save money and optimize your ads to perform well even from the get-go. Remember that you can always track your ads or which ad is effective using your SFI affiliate center at https://www.sfimg.com/PowerTools/HitTracking

5. DON'T - Forget your branding - All the advertising in the world can help improve your business but unless you include your branding people will simply forget you after they see the ad. You may use your GATEWAY list provided in https://www.sfimg.com/MyAccount/GatewayList

6. DON'T - Leave out a call-to-action - Many marketers and website owners get caught up with trying to make cute and funny advertising; unfortunately, cute and funny doesn't pay - get to the point and tell people want you want them to do upon viewing your ads such as buy, subscribe or tell others. You may use the available TEXT ADS in SFI which you can access in https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/RefTextAds

7. DON'T - Ignore social media like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, etc. One bad review can ruin your reputation. An essential step is to closely manage the posts made by your staff as well as your customers. By doing so, you will be able to catch any potential catastrophe early.


8. DON'T - Waste money to try to get the #1 ranking. These claims cannot be guaranteed through legitimate means. Keep these questions in mind when facing similar claims: Do you get to choose your own keyword? Do you get to change the keyword if it doesn't generate good traffic? Most of these offers aren't credible, so be careful.

9. DON'T- Fall for SEO (Search Engine Optimization) hype. It is easy to be sold on promises like appearing on thousands of search engines, but keep in mind there are only few primary search engines that handle about 95% of all internet searches.

10. DON'T - Loose hope in advertising SFI. Remember that being PERSISTENT and CONSISTENT equates Success. I remember one of the portion in Gery's Rules of Success that even a company or person which you offer SFI business turned you down for 364 days in one year, there is still one day out of 365 days that will give you a chance to close the deal.

Hope these few TIPS help you!

Goodluck!

Creating ads particularly in SFI is a very technical thing to do. As such, if not properly handled, the effort could yield negative and unexpected results. That is the singular reason why adequate care must be taken when creating ads to promote your business. For effectiveness, you need to do what is right, then do it appropriately by avoiding certain things as a rule.

Among such things you should avoid when creating SFI ads are:

1. Do not promise or guarantee any specific amount of income.
2. Do not misrepresent facts.
3. No hyping of whatever description.
4. Avoid misinformation.
5. No spamming.
6. Avoid unfair comparison with similar programs.
7. Avoid plagiarism.
8. Avoid bad/obscene language and misspellings.
9. Avoid designing only one-ad-fits-all for every purpose.
10. Do not design your ads for the wrong audience.
11. Avoid misleading information.
12. Avoid ads which deliberately put down similar programs.

These are some of the don’ts I can think of right now which I believe if avoided can help you to create good and effective SFI ads.

I hope you find this answer useful.

In my experience I think the things that should be avoided when creating ads is anything that is false or misleading.

You also want to keep it simple and straight to the point. Do not give away too much info, you want them to click and continue on to your landing page and sign up. THEN they will be given the professional SFI marketing information.

I also recommend not using the word FREE. In my opinion,this tends to attract those that want "something for nothing" and I don't want that type of affiliate on my team.

Good question! you don't have much space for advertising and don't waste that valuable space for something that is not appropriate.

Here are the things that should be avoided when creating SFI ads.

1) Try to avoid misrepresentation and misinformation about SFI. Do not mislead people with your advertisement. Specially promising certain income.

2) Do not let other similar programs down to bring SFI up. Present SFI alone without mentioning the negatives of others.

3) Do not use other materials owned by others without implied or actual permission. This is illegal.

4) Do not put unrelated words to SFI nor engage on ego trip. trying to advertise yourself rather than SFI.

5) Do not post you ads until you have checked it thoroughly, in terms of spelling and readability. It's good to let someone read it first and ask for comments. Make a test specially if you are using images.

6) Avoid creating ads for wrong audience - When you create ads you must have your audience in mind and tailor made your ads to them. So choose your words properly.

I'm pretty sure that when you create your ad, you should consider the following:

- Do not make false promises,

- Do not show business as it is not, such as - a small investment of time, etc.

- Do not promote and do not promise any big money in a short time,

- Do not use inappropriate photos to illustrate your ad (I had the opportunity to see the ads that are illustrated with scenes of violence, and similar photos).

On the other hand, you should be honest and able to create an atmosphere that would attract anyone who is serious and wants to work.

Good question!

Avoid..

> anything untrue or exaggerated - already too many new PSAs drop out before they get going, we need to be honest about the opportunities and not lead people astray in any way!

> too many words, or complicated words - Keep It Simple - for many potential PSAs, English is a second language, and no one wants to be made to feel stupid by 'clever' use of words!

> anything that you personally don't understand, don't believe in or can't deliver. E.g. Don't set up complicated advertising campaigns using websites, webinars etc if you don't understand them yet!! I'm Definately in this category! Got some learning to do before I move on to this!

> giving too much information in one go - its better to get someone's attention with one thing than to bore or confuse them with Too Much Information and lose them! Have different adverts for each area of SFI, TripleClicks etc.

I hope that helps you in deciding what to avoid in your adverts!

All the best for your business!

Marketing is a science of mental triggers and tailored relationships.

The end result of your campaigns should be to leave a good impression. Leave the viewer feeling informed, and wanting more information. So there are a ton of things you can do poorly in advertising and marketing including the use of certain colors in your ads.

Text wise leave out:

- Negative wording.
- Anything that sounds like a scare tactic.
- False urgency.
- Misinformation.
- Uninformative text.
- Over use of the call to action.

Do not over simplify, don't be the poorly trained marketer who has a big button on the page by itself with the words click here. You are looking for quality prospects not fools that would click that button accidentally finding your gateway URL behind it.

Go for quality at every turn because quantity is very discouraging when you have hundreds of PSA but only 1-2 workers. Inform and educate the prospects you really want.

Avoid the following:

- giving the impression of instant riches - if you sign up
- stating how much a person would earn - within a period
- offering 'bribe' for signing up - money or product etc..
- giving promises of easy money - don't have to do much work
- 'bad mouthing' other similar business - by name or insinuations
- providing incorrect data/information - need to be very accurate
- revealing how much you or others have earned in SFI - this is frowned upon
- a shoddy unprofessional ad with bad spelling, grammar, bad appearance etc..
- using photos etc that are copyrighted without authority
- nudity and obscene images - these are inappropriate for SFI ads

In all cases avoid anything that would tarnish the good name of SFI. This can have a devastating effect on all of us.

Cheers

You should avoid words like:

Be original!

Wish you a lot success!

Hello, Ferdinand Caorong.

(1) Misrepresentation and
(2)Presenting inaccurate information are the two main mistakes to avoid when you ARE creating and placing SFI ads.

We will discuss these two aspects. They will cover most of the issues that may arise when promoting our SFI Business.

I. Misrepresentation may occur when
(a) we overstate what SFI Offers or, the opposite,
(b) understate what one can expect from working SFI diligently

A. Overstating what SFI offers can occur if we were to imply that one can get rich overnight as do some internet businesses that promise to make you a millionaire in a relatively short period of time.

B. Understating SFI's potential is also counterproductive. One would not embark in an approach that would undermine the success of one's advertising campaign.

II. Inaccurate Presentation of SFI may result if we have not taken the time to learn the SFI Basics, ore gone through the launchpad thoroughly and or have neglected to study all the training modules SFI Corporate has made available.

Other mistakes may be brought up. However, in most cases, they will fall within the three categories described above.

We all need to avoid such mistakes when we are promoting SFI.
