SFI business model is definitely not for everybody, so many come with different expectations and disappear when those expectations are not met. An example is someone looking for a get-rich-quick business may be disappointed if he does not earn as fast as he hopes.

Some of them joined because of what they read in various advertisement contents and were hopeful that what the ads say is what it is, but unfortunately they were met with different circumstance. Take for instance someone who

This is a very good question and I believe every team leader have had to face this reality constantly in their bids to make a success of their SFI business. The following could be the reasons why many fall out:

(1). Many newly sponsored affiliates are not familiar with the SFI websites and because of the fact that the website is fully loaded with information they don't know where to start from. This is the reason you have to start following them up as soon as they register. You need to

The main reason why so many affiliates choose not to act after joining SFI is because they don't understand how it all works and they are afraid to try and fail. I have recruited 1000s of PSAs and I can tell that if you can pay Google for traffic they can get your sign ups. Some of these 'signups' are not legitimately qualified by your targeting, some are not 'valid' because they were paid to click on your ad without regard to the content, and just a small portion is 'dead on'. In the beginning

This is a very good question. There are many answers to this question and I will try to list a few.
1. I think that the new affiliates have signed up thinking that this is a Get Rich Quick program

2. They think that they do not have to do anything to make it work

3. They have major information overload, a lot of people can not handle all the info thrown at them all of a sudden

4. They signed up just for a look around and find out that this is not

Hi Alvin, a number of things are responsible for this:

1. Initial energy as a result of follow up like welcome note, chats, email is totally missing.
I remain an affiliate today because I choose to. My leader never spoke to me for once.
2. What they see is different from what they believe e.g many think they can make quick money.
3. Wrong information from people who advertise SFI to them.
4. No proper leadership counsel from the team leader.
5. New realities

Hi
Many people become inactive because of few common reasons:
1.they become overwhelmed by the info because the website is very rich with so many info which can confuse newcomers.
2.they think SFI is a get rich quick system where you can earn money for doing nothing.
3.some are very lazy and they can't read and familiarize themselves with the system, they expect somebody to read for them.
4. many think it's a scam just like any other that they may have encountered in the past.

Since 2013, I became an SFI affiliate. During this period, I have watched several affiliates become inactive soon after entering the business. There are so many benefits to achieve, on becoming a member of this noteworthy company. However, not everyone avail themselves of the privilege long enough to experience these. Instead, they quit. The list below states some reasons many affiliates become inactive shortly after they join SFI.

-They cannot find the time to do the daily

There are many reasons why affiliates become inactive shortly after joining SFI, and one or two of these may shock you:

1) Roughly 90% of the affiliates that sign up come into this through traffic exchanges or safelists and get intrigued by a free opportunity to make money... up until the point where they realize that this requires some actual time spent *working* and *learning*, in addition to additional (optional) expense in the form of Standing Orders and other marketing tools.

2)

1. First of all, to say "after joining SFI" is not 100 percent true/correct! Most of the 'new comers' are only 'curious visitors' who logged in "Free" thinking they could make 'Fast-money' in the 'Easiest-possible' way(s). When they realize that it's only "Free-log-in" and NOT "Free-money", they don't bother to 'visit' again, after the 'first-log-in'!

2. Some people log-in by 'chance' or by seeing the attractive captions like "Earn from Home"

When you present a “Free to Join” marketing plan to the Internet and you do not use any kind of qualifications that would help control the type of people who click on your sign-up page then you can receive multitudes of different kinds of tire kickers.

People sign up because it is free – when they find out that it will take some kind of effort like:

1. Time
2. Money
3. Learning
4. Reading
5. Commitment
6. Patience
7. And
