In my opinion, anxious-to-earn NOW affiliates and convincing them it takes time to develop a successful business are two different things. Everyone joins AFI for different reasons. Some may want quick cash and others actually want to build a long-lasting business that provides residual income indefinitely.
If an affiliate is anxious to earn money now, I would recommend that they upload some of their personal items that are in good condition but no longer needed and sell them. That would help them to achieve their goal of earning money now.
However, I would not fail to use the opportunity to talk to them about quick cash versus establishing long-term income and getting to know them as individuals and their personal long-term and immediate goals. Feed their spirit. Never stifle their desire to earn money, teach them how to meet immediate needs while building toward long-term goals (or establishing those long-term goals if they haven't done so already).

The first thing you need to do is impress upon them that this is a real business and not a get rich quick scheme. Let them know how long SFI has been running and how successful it is. Explain that if they were trying to set up an offline business they would need property and possibly staff.
As SFI is an online business these overheads are not required, but the business does not build itself. Building a business is a long process, but it is well worth taking the time to build it properly.
I know that sounds a little crazy, but I've tried it and it works:
If I have a new PSA, I take him by the hand. A warm welcome, a small talk in chat, talk about goals and any person to whom they would like to give an opportunity for financial independence. Create with the PSA's List and help him, just enroll these individuals. If one of these persons has enrolled, help him in the same manner as above. Think not only once at the sales! Sponsor down and down. Eventually comes one who wants to buy something or successfully build his own business. Then you can congratulate the first PSA and tell him: Hey, thank you that you're so lazy. Now I'm making at the other PSA. What do you think will happen? Listening to the first? He already has a downline, he has something to lose, even though he has earned anything yet.
What will happen? Well, maybe he will stop actually on, but then it was not the right PPE for our business, or he realizes that network marketing works and will start new affiliates to sponsor and develop activities in SFI and Triple Clicks.

Perhaps the other way of rephrasing the issue of quick earning is not to put them off by saying it takes time but to reassure them that there is a definite progress towards earning commissions and is realised by how fast and how effective one can be in implementing the 4 basics of SFI i.e 1. How quickly and effectively one accumulates Versa Points 2. How quickly and effectively one generates sales at triple clicks, 3. How quickly and effectively one sponsors new affiliate sign ups and duplicates their activeness for these same 4 basics, 4. How quickly and effectively one adds on supplemental income streams by a)co-sponsoring affiliates b) bringing in ECAs and through Pay Per Action options. These 4 basics need a monthly strategy to balance out actions on all 4 areas by committing to the TO DO list and investing funds where critical to make the strategy work. To me these approach maintains the motivation of affiliates to do their best so that they can earn quickly and effectively. Cant do without QUICK and EFFECTIVE cant we? Stay motivated and commit to your success. Please go through the Basics details and develop an implementation strategy for the month using the TO DO tab to cross check your results and progress.

My best advice to new, anxious-to-earn-NOW affiliates is to give them a action list to follow and check off as you go. We are checking in to the to do list each day. We are making goals and writing them down. So why not go a step further with advertising that can be tested? Market a specific target for your triple clicks store. Try to sell products on other venues and then use that information to sell those product on Triple clicks. Not everything is going to work for everyone. Targeting your audience and then putting your money into that target will help them feel like they are doing something quickly and earning the money that they want. Follow up with new team members as much as you can and even call them if you can do that as well. A Personal touch can help motive and grow any business.

"How do I get new, anxious-to-earn-NOW affiliates to understand that it takes time to develop a successful business?"
My advice is to give a real comparison to a "brick and mortar" business. SFI is just like any other real business, it takes time. With any other business, you must invest time, desire, and finances in order to have the opportunity to blossom and grow.
Point out that there is no business where you can earn NOW. All businesses require time to take off. How fast your business will become successful depends on how committed you are to becoming successful.

Till such time the person becomes an Executive Affiliate, we should continue to stay in touch with him regularly, possible speak to him personally and motivate him so that he will be highly encouraged to continue with SFI business. In short, we should lead by our own example so that our down lines will be highly inspired to carry on duly understanding that patience. Perseverance and duplication are key factors to be successful in SFI Business.
Every business have start an introduce (learning,prepare time, team buuild, realisation, income)
The most important thing is to exlplane your affiliates that SFI business is not fast income (over the night)...
Also important is to show them your activites and proper time for your own income.
I suggest for first contact to tell them to learn and work to visit forums and webinars for knowledge.
I think that half of year 5-6 months sounds good for motivation.

"you can lead a horse to water, but can't make him drink" just about sums it up. You cannot force anyone to do anything. Even all the encouragement in the world will not motivate some people.watch for the "tire kickers" and work with your team to the best of your ability!
See you at the top! Remember anything worth having is worth working for!!
