Why do so many affiliates become inactive shortly after joining SFI?

I think it is due to commitment. People don't like to be committed.

When they see they need to read, for some their reading level does not let them be a part of understanding or their language is a barrier.

Now days people are more interested in fast and simple.

People when joining SFI think they should see instant profit within an hour or so. They think they can get something for nothing.

Lots of people are afraid of the word "Work" they are "Lazy"

Maybe they get lost along the way - too scared to ask for help

Every one is different

Allow me to answer your question with a question of my own.

Have you heard of the Billy Preston song, "Nothing from nothing leaves nothing?"

Most affiliates expect a free ride when they sign up. If they don't get it, then they go AWOL.

Let me allude one more time to the aforementioned song; the following lyric after the one I had mentioned: "You gotta have something if you want to be with me." In other words, they have to bring something to the table if they want to succeed. They have to contribute time and a little piece of chump change for a standing order if they at least want to become an Executive Affiliate. They immediately get turned off by working hard to build a business that they just say "screw it" and go inactive for months.

I am certain this quick song reference (good piece of music, might I add) will be useful for your business rather than just passive entertainment. Have a good day, wherever you are!

I think people might have some of the same problem I have. Many affiliates become inactive shortly after joining because like me they don't know much about computers and they have questions that they don't have answers to.

1) What am I selling?

This question eluded me for a long time. What you are selling is whatever you want to sell. Things around the house, TCredits, or something from your ECAs.

2) Where do I find ECAs?

3) Where do I sell my Product?

These questions should be answered as quickly as possible as they seem vague.
They might also not know how to access information due to lack of computer skills.

HI,

I believe that people become inactive because they don't have a dream!

We are so used to work for a boss, who tells us what to to and when to do it.
For a lot of people SFI doesn't seem like a business. If they see it IS a business, they will become active.
It is a business and should be treated as a business.

If you have the possibility to sit with your PSA's, explain them that it is THEIR business.
Talk about what they want, what they want to achieve. What are their dreams!
Let them write down their goals.
If they see the goals everyday, they will take action to get there!

The goals can be set very small, there is no need to set them.real high, but with little goals they will see that it is not so difficult to get them.

Remember:
WHEN THE DREAM IS BIG ENOUGH, THE FACTS DON'T COUNT!

Good luck to you!

Dear Friend,

Per my knowledge, at least 90% of affiliates become inactive shortly may be due to below reasons:-

1) They've signed up SFI, anticipating promoting your niche in the future, and just haven't got around to it yet. I know I have a list of sites (with domains registered) that will probably take me 10 years to develop. Many affiliates sign up in advance, rather than waiting to sign up when they're ready. If they waited, they might not get approved or might have to wait days, weeks or months to get approved.

2) They signed up SFI, but you don't provide everything they need or want. For instance, your data-feed may be poorly categorized, out of date, or inaccurate. Maybe you don't offer deep links.

3) They may rely on SEO and are building pages, but it'll take time to build traffic to those pages.

4) You might not have approved them fast enough. Perhaps they were ready to promote one of your products, applied, didn't get approved, and found another merchant with the product.

Hope it helps to some extent. Wish you good luck!!

Before giving answer of your question I like to declare that following answer is made from my
personal experience and believe.

To get your questions answer, first I have to divide the affiliates in 2 category.

1. Affiliates- who joints through our convince (from friends/relative circle).
2. Affiliates - who comes from auction of TC/PB or purchased from an ECA or through any
others gateway

Reasons for become inactive of number 1 category:
1. 40% of them quit when they find it is not a quick rich program
2. 20% of them have allergy in reading method,boredom makes them inactive
3. 15% of them didn't find good sponsor or help and become inactive
4. 15% of them quit for recurring investment (SO)
5. 2% of them faced some practical problem (like time,tools,money,etc) and they quit
6. 3% of them you find irregular and become inactive after some time
---rest of the percentage works with us.

Reasons for become inactive of number 2 category :
1. 42% of them comes from 'click & pay'companies,they gets pay for signup from those company
2. 20% is irregular and non-cooperative and become inactive shortly
3. 15% become inactive when they found that SFI is not a overnight rich subject
4. 13% quit because they don't want to invest for SO
5. 7% of them didn't get proper guidance
---I think rest will be active

So, I can say that, the most reason for inactive affiliates are -
* SFI is not a quick reach program
* Proper guidance from sponsor or up-line
* Investment for SO
* Patience of affiliates
* Fake affiliates

Hope, not the percentage but the reasons you find of your question.
I will be happy if my answer become help-full to you.
Good Luck

Hi Alvin

People get board doing the same thing over without getting "paid" for it.
They are impatient.
They are not motivated.
They are not serious enough.
So many people complain they don't have work and yet they are not prepared to "stick" around.
I was very impatient my self, but I am determined to make it work.
They also do not want to learn a new "trade/business"

All the best for this year.
hope this answers your question.

Many SFI affiliates enroll in seeing an convincing advertisement , many affiliates are active on other sites and then they say "let's try to subscribe and see how it" in SFI you have to work several hours a day, reading more than on other sites, especially in the first month, some of them do not even have the courage to continue, sign, the site open, quit quickly, they do not even get to read the welcome letter, they may have never come back or if they find out from others who have succeeded in SFI to make a substantial income they will return in a later regret, grief they have lost so long, then many who do not speak English as their first language give fear they can not communicate properly, because the fear they will not be able to send a letter properlythey give up, if they had a little patience,they would find that SFI provides many materials you out of all tangles, then,for some is a little uncomfortable and requires more time to use an online translator , many of them give up from this reason, it is good to know middle English to communicate ; others enroll because they have heard of SFI but they have services that require many hours and it do not remain free time SFI, others do not agree to a daily work ,they don't know there is Vacation Mode but if you give up so fast,you have no way to know,and many.

Hello,

This is one of our biggest problems here at SFI. We keep on recruiting and we feel so happy whenever someone gets in. Only to be confronted by their inactivity.

Generally I cannot know what the reasons are. We can only guess or surmise. Why do I say this?

Well, I receive all the informatiion through SFI who also advises that the best thing to do is to contact the new affiliate. Immediately, one moves, however we never receive any reaction or reply. I usually check the movements through my genealogy and mover's tab. I send them e-mails, ECards but to no avail. Except for the information from SFI and Profile and the initial presence in the gealogy you do not see anything. Eventually he/she is gone and one never hears from them anymore.

From this I would conclude, that they made a mistake in signing in. Whatever else she/he is thinking of I'll never know. And I do not want to guess.

Those who are interested normally show this from the start. I therefore suggest that we should provide enough nformation even in our advertisements. Make them ready for the type of business they are coming in to. I do not advise that we hide certain matters from them. Truth and knowledge will bring about an enlightened decision making on the part of people signing in.
