Excellent Queston! SFI has so many ways of earning money and VersaPoints that it can be bewildering. I take the position that you should be doing things that will build your income long term.
My suggestions:
Earn monthly VersaPoints (VP). They fill several purposes. They are where your qualifications for Executive Affiliate (EA) and Team Leader (TL) positions come from. They are a major source of income when you are earning lots of them via matching. Develop the habit of logging in daily, clearing the red tabs and learning something new, along with earning a minimum of 10 Action VP per day, and enter the Daily Grand. Action VP are needed in addition to Purchase VP as you qualify for Bronze Team Leader (BTL) and above. You want that qualification since it gives you Matching VP from your downline. Do not worry about Team Leader status until you have a few EA2 downline affiliates, as you do not get Matching VP until they are EA2. Setting up a 1500+ VP Standing Order is critical to getting the VP that you need for your own EA2 qualification each month and to set an example for your downline.
Personally Enrolled Affiliates earn you money from Direct Commissions and when they qualify as EA2 status, they propel you to Team Leader status and matching VP. You need a constant flow of new PSA in order to find the diamonds among the rocks. Every PSA says that say that they want to earn money, but over 90% will not do anything to earn it. SFI requires long term effort before the money starts to flow and the something-for-nothing crowd is most of what you will see. Greet every PSA and offer to mentor each and every one, then do so with the 1% who reply.
I decided that I will buy an S-Builder share a month, buy some TCredits every month, participate in PriceBender auctions for stuff I want, for PSAs. My standing order gets me 2000 VP which is the max I can use towards BTL each month. I am working on getting several EA2 qualified downline affiliates, as the VP from them will help me towards BTL. I am committed to doing this for 2 years, then re-evaluating. I am trying to get a PSA a day.
Depending on the time you have to advertise, and how your life is going, you will have to make your own decisions. PSA that have decided to build a business and are making a small investment each month are what will propel you to a decent income. Learning to find and then motivate those PSA is where your money will come from.
I hope that these ideas will be useful to you. They represent the distillation of my learning over the last 6 months.
