When giving a brief overview you are more likely to get affiliates joining and not stopping with SFI, because although it looked good in the ad they realize it is not for them.

This could be for any number or reasons not least the fact they are unlikely to make money straight away.

It is important prospective affiliates know what they are going to be needing to do before they sign up.

There are those that will sign up just because it is free, but it should be pointed out to them that if they do stay free it may take some time for them to build their business enough to start making money.

I think you should have a variety of communication with your downline. I start with a concise Welcome eCard, with a basic rundown of what to do next for them. In a few days, I send another communication with a mini SFI lesson that is applicable to that person. I have several times a week I send out tips to my downline, or something new I found on SFI/TC. So your communication should be a variety of long, short and in between as far as information level goes. If you give them too little, they won't grasp the great opportunity and ease of said opportunity....If you go into TOO much detail, they may get bored or just lost, even smart smart people do this....So in the middle is usually best for all instances of your SFI/TC business. Hope this helps, many blessings to you.

In my opinion, keep it simple. I was so excited when I joined the SFI program that I worked it out by myself and I was being kept updated by SFI newsletters - if I would have had a lot of content, more than what was provided by SFI, I might have been discouraged to carry on.

Therefore I adopt this attitude with my prospects and then take each person individually and coach them if necessary. This tends to create a certain amount of curiosity for those who are risk takers and those that want to know more will definitely join and find out for themselves.

Unless you are asked questions that will lead to a more detailed explanation, I would not burden the prospect with much to think about at the initial stages of your discussions. It might have a negative impact.

Hi,
always better detailed information like:

When it comes to being involved in a business, it doesn’t take much to see if one is or isn’t serious about it. I’m sure most of us have joined a site for one reason or another, right? Often, just because one colleague asks one if you join mine I will join yours? Most of us have done that to absolutely not accomplish anything whatsoever, unless its merely a referral contest going on, to collect emails.
Seriously though, what is our goal in joining a business, is it to just check it out to see what its about, or to get a person out of hair to stop asking. I understand for sure that we often do to check it out. But what are we seeking in a business? To be quite honest, if you are looking for a fast way to earn money without any participation , you better look for the lottery or someone leaving you money in a will. Lets take a moment and read this email I found.
hey folk here is a nice email mess , to use for csa & your team members ..
Forget about the promises of getting rich quick with little or no effort. If you’ve been looking online for a while now, I’m sure you’ve already learned that Google is not going to pay you $389 a day to work from home because you have basic typing skills; there is no secret grant program you can sign up to where the government is just going to hand you money for nothing; there’s no bank in London that has $4 million waiting in a secret account for you; there’s no foreclosed house you can buy for $1 and there are no fully automated get rich quick schemes where you enter your credit card and instantly start making money.
If it was that easy everyone would be doing it, right? The truth is, you have to work to make money in any business. What you can count on here though, is that with the right attitude and the desire to succeed, there is a lot of money that can be made, without having to be a slave to a job – if you’re willing to learn.
We used the word SIMPLE above – and it is! It’s not easy though – being successful requires dedication and commitment. So, do you have what it takes?
This email cuts right thru the chase, the word is Serious enough to work a business. A true solid business is one that doesn’t promise you millions overnight and one that says you can earn without any effort. Now, let me say this there are honest places you can invest money, not these where you put money in and earn tremendously, because once the cashflow stops , so does your money that you invested and its gone.

It definitely to your advantage and theirs to be brief and to the point. Not only will you run your prospect away if you are verbose, but you will also confuse them. What I like to do for all of my prospects is to give them a TC Gift Card and say here's a 12 dollar value toward your next purchase from my site, please check it in your leisure. If they have questions then, I say just check out if you have the time - if not give it to a good friend. Sometimes people press you for more information. Stick to your brief concise explanation and let them figure out. As soon as you open your mouth about auctions, or bids, or work - you've lost them. They will stick that card back in your hand so quick it will make you think that they are afraid of opportunities. They are not but you told the wrong information and they made a decision based on the misinformation you gave them. You want your prospects to make informed decisions and the only way for that to happen is for you to allow them to check it out for themselves.

I believe it is much better to provide prospects only a brief overview of what SFI is about. That is probably why SFI provides “SFI Basics” to complement the details in the LaunchPad lessons. All you want is attention and a brief overview is enough for you to get it.

Your first encounter with a prospect is only rewarding if you manage to “arouse” their interest. That is exactly what a brief overview of SFI allows you to do. Once their interest is sufficiently aroused, you can proceed to more details with a view to getting them enrolled in the business. The rule of thumb is to use a lady’s skirt as a guide. “It should be long enough as not to be boring and short enough to cover the essentials.”

My own take therefore is that a brief overview of SFI is all you need when you want to give information about SFI to prospects.

I hope this answer helps. Best wishes!!

I firmly believe that a brief overview is much more effective especially to most new affiliates. Too much information can confuse and blow people away, you have to recall that SFI would also be sending information to the new affiliate. Take time to know and feel out your team members, and then you will have a better idea as to what and how much information to share with them. if they don't need it, then don't send it, use your genealogy report to much effect, it has al the categories for you to gauge the progress and status of your affiliates. Yes I believe less with purpose is much more effective than more without specific targets.

I assume you are talking about prospects you still want to join SFI? I think a brief overview works better. Interested people will ask for more detailed information.

I find that the JMT Gateway is an excellent tool. It is brief, yet detailed.

It gives enough information so people can get a good idea what SFI is about, but is not overwhelming.

The amount and quality of information we give out to our prospects is a very important factor of whether or not we will have success with them. I myself have learned that what and how we talk about SFI can determine our prospects and PSA activity.

I will vote for keeping it optimum length and crystal clear.

You must be aware that prospects are easily distracted. To keep their attention you need to make it clear what is your goal. You are inviting them to start a business.

You should prepare your message and repeat it trough your written or live speech. It is said that five sentences is an optimal foundation in business communication. You should prepare a compact speech that contains relevant information of your offer.

If you are directly talking to your prospect than those 5 sentences should open some more questions. If you are writing an ad or business e-mail five sentences gives exactly what is required for a professional business e-mail. Of course, you should clearly note to your prospect that you are open to answer any questions.

You should keep your presentation of SFI simple and avoid few things, like using too professional language, unclear structure, distracting visual aids or too long, complicated sentences.

The proper length of your introductory content should clearly state it’s purpose and message, what kind of action you are expecting from your prospect. Keep in mind that your prospects are busy, don’t forget to compliment them and thank them for their attention.
