First of all, be specific and to the point. Keep your message simple. Respond to the question. Use words straight from your heart. Put yourself in the questioner's place, and consider what they need to hear to address their concerns. Do they just need reassurance that the business works, or is it a deeper question into exactly how the business works? Gauge where the listener is coming from and treat their question with due respect.

Remember, almost every person starts out the business

I was taught that a sentence contains a subject and a predicate.
Only answer a question you are fully informed about.

Submitting your answer just to receive votes is not the primary reason you should consider when you answer a question. Please remember that the answer you submit is being read by thousands of Affiliates who come across your answer. The number of votes you receive may not necessarily be because your answer is the best. Sometimes, there are errors in the answers submitted and affiliates who vote on the answer fail to recognize the errors.

It is very important that you analyze and read

I earned the Top Author 100K Votes badge by following these tips:

1. Read the entire question and understand it before answering.

2. Be clear and precise! And answer the question. I see a lot of answers that really don't answer the actual question that was asked.

3. Check your grammar, spelling, punctuation and spacing. You want your answer to be easy to read.

4. Write your answer in Word first and use the Spellcheck. If it's easy for you to read and understand,

The best tip I can give you for this question that you pose is this:

1 Focus on questions that you have experience with, in doing so you will have a personal insight to some of the problems that others may encounter which may help their situation.

2 Always be HONEST

3 Look to HELP the affiliate who has that question that you can answer, don't look only for points, the reward will come from the quality of your support and folks will vote for you.

Hi P Sheela,

There are several criteria an answer must qualify for.

First of all, it must be correct !! Meaning that what you say must be true.
When you give someone directions, tips, advice etc. you must be 100% sure they are within SFI rules and possibility's.

If possible read other answers given on the subject before answering. This way you won't duplicate a given answer.

Be sure you understand the question.

In answering, provide links

The most important thing to remember is to always be honest and do your research before you submit an answer. We are all in this to become successful, and everyone can learn and teach one another. Make sure the information is clear and makes sense. The last part is to keep on topic, answer the question by keeping it short sweet

Do your best to give a full, sensible answer. Someone is reaching out, asking for help. Answer them with the same quality with which you would like to be answered. Have respect for their intelligence, be honest.

After that, it is purely up to how well the other affiliates receive your answers!! (Which is really
