It is best to promote SFI to all and sundry. There should be no limitation. Anticipated result could be achieved from where you least expected.

First and foremost, know the stuff you are made of. Build yourself up and get acquainted with all the SFI marketing tools and methods. Be ready to open your mind to learn exactly what you need to learn to succeed in SFI. The basis of your confidence is based on what you know and how you defend that knowledge. Entrepreneurship and life is all

Lets take for instance, if you have a store of your own do you sell to friends and family only or to strangers only or to both?

Of course to both so It is wise to promote SFI to both parties. You never know someone in either party may be your top PSA. In some cultures like in Papua New Guinea, your family and friends tend to promote your business more than a stranger's business. That may differ from culture to culture and that may also vary from SFI's affiliate to affiliate.

Charity they say begins at home. It is best to start with your friends and family members. You can actually use them as a learning point because most will be cynical and make a jest, but you pick from that to learn how to approach strangers. More over, its always fun to share success with family and friends, its fun creating a healthy competition with a family member or a friend like who will recruit the most PSAs in a day or month, who will earn the most versapoints and so on, it will help to

Very good question, Gordana ...

From personal experience I can tell, it's better to contact strangers.
Why strangers?
Because to them we practice, and we will not be disappointed if you do not take jobs that offer them.

As for relatives, friends, and it was very strange kind of people they should just say with what we do. Because if we do not happen to someone else bring in business.
Our friends and relatives, will immediately enter the job, but we will watch

Promoting your SFI business to your friends and family is more better for you to start with, for you are comfortable to explain how SFI is to you with your friends and your family.
And, they also can reach you anytime for any questions they have.

To promote SFI to strangers, is quite more challenging. They might not believe or they just dont listen to you. GIft Cards may work on them.
(Sorry about my grammar)
I hope this may help.

Dear Gordana,
When I just started with SFI I got a piece of advice to forget friends, family and to concentrate on advertising as much as it's possible in order to attract some unfamiliar people to this job. Some people think that you'll have more success with strangers, and that was true according to their experience. But I wouldn't neglect family and friends, because others didn't have a negative experience with their friends and family members who were so interested in this job.
That

Who could be the first better recipient of the nuggets that is in your hand a fortune to share with them? So for me, your family and friends are the better persons to promote SFI as there is a saying that " Charity begins at home" and I believe in that. As for promoting SFI to stranger, there's nothing wrong with it, however it entails a lot of effort that you have to exert as a beginner to get their attention and the tendency of discouragement is sometimes insurmountable. Strenghten your

I think you should promote SFI to everyone. Start by using attraction marketing. Post on social media any tips you have with your business, post results from winning auctions, the games, maybe what you are selling on TripleClicks, etc. Let people come to you. This is best done on Facebook but it can work on any social media site.

There is no doubt that it is always better to promote our own near and dears than to absolute strangers at the first place. The main reason of this fact that we can easily coordinate with our own people and guide them systematically and often personally too . Moreover, our own success stories with SFI will certainly inspire them to work hard and achieve their desired results in the future.

However, I am not totally ignoring the so called strangers and at times, they will create
