The answer to your 1st question is Yes. Your business growth however will be slower than those who have and invest money in the business.

The answer to your 2nd question can be quite complex. You have to recognize that your strategy will be different from those with money.

Those that have money can purchase items at TripleClicks straight away, such as PSA to Go etc and use them to grow their business. If you don't have money you cannot do this or purchase as many PSAs to Go as they can.

Those that have money can also go out straight away and pay for advertising promoting TripleClicks and recruiting PSAs. If you don't have money you cannot do this or purchase as much advertising as they can.

HERE'S A TIP:

Focus on promoting TripleClicks products and services/games etc.. Remember you receive 45% commission of the CV every time one of the people you refer to TC buys something. This is the best way I know of earning quick money in SFI.

Use as much of the readily available free advertising online and offline as you are able to. It’s a bit slow at first but you will soon be able to do both – free and paid advertising.

Start recruiting PSAs and sponsoring them as early as possible.

When you get your commission payment, invest it back into the business (Don’t forget to pay yourself though) and keep doing this month after month. Your business will grow and you will be successful.

There are a lot of new affiliates who enter into SFI (Strong Future International) wanting to know if they can be successful without investing any money. I am surprised that anyone can think of “success” in a business venture and not expect to have to invest in building their business.

SFI was designed so that the affiliate who is financially strapped (no money) can “start” their home business without spending any of their OWN money. This “no cost” startup can eventually lead to a thriving, growing business.

I must say at this point that it will take longer to become successful with their home business without making any investments with money. Their main investment will have to be allocating enough “time” to be able to grow in a positive direction.

First: The free start affiliate will have to log in everyday and gather as many VP as they can each and every day. The accumulated VP will help the affiliate reach the EA level during the first month.

Second: Upon the first day or two after enrolling the affiliate needs to connect with their TripleClicks Gateways and start promoting on-line with free advertising sites. With heavy promoting it is possible to gain a sale or two of TripleClicks products and gain a couple of PRMs (Personally Referred Members).

Third: At the same time the affiliate is promoting TripleClicks Gateways they also need to start promoting their SFI gateways. This is done for the purpose of gaining new affiliates in their personal team.

Fourth: The free startup affiliate can find things laying around the house that they no longer use and offer them at TripleClicks for sale – each item they put up for sale will cost one TCredit these TCredits can be gained free by playing T-Time every hour with chances of winning two TCredits a day.

Fifth: When the affiliate starts earning TCredits, MRPs (Member Reward Points) and any cash earned from the steps listed above they must realize that now they should RE-invest those earnings in purchasing single TCredits for obtaining the maximum VP. This will help the affiliate maintain the EA status.

Finally: They need to start teaching any PSAs (Personally Sponsored Affiliates) they have received how to work the free startup system.

The steps; mentioned above can get a new person on the road to success if they are willing to stick it out through the slow progress of starting without any money investment. In reality working this system with hot passion can lead someone to the top levels in a rather short time

Well, success is relative depending on what constitute success to different set of folks, but on a general note success means achieving your stated goals so I will approach my answer by attempting to be general as much as possible.

With the way SFI is structured, it is possible to be successful without investing money but if you have a business mindset; it will be unprofessional not to invest in your business, especially if you can. Having said that, how will you then be successful without investing any money? Find my prescriptions below:

1. You must attempt to prospect your warm market; relatives, colleagues, friends, socials network. Reach out to them physically or by any other electronic methods.

2. Take a walk along your main street and speak to people and businesses in order to generate both SFI/TC and ECAs signups. You see, one of the most effective cost free methods is to engage in face-to-face prospecting.

3. Place SFI/TC flyers on important places in your locality where they can be visible and attractive; library, municipal council, social welfare offices, pensioner gathering centres, supermarkets, colleges etc.

4. Place ads in free classifieds but you have to invest an awful lot of time to get reasonable results.

5. After the hard work above, you may generate some sales and signups, and at month end you will receive some commission. Here is the tricky part; please resist the temptation to blow away this commission on non SFI related things, instead invest the money in advancing the course of your SFI business and if it is enough to set up a standing order of especially Tcredits you may start from there.

In conclusion, is it really right to say you did not invest any money in this circumstance? What of buying gas for your car or a bus ticket to the town centre which are indirect expenses anyway. On a more serious not anyone that is not willing or incapable to invest a reasonable amount of money in this business may have a long and rougher road to success. I wish you all the best of luck because you will certainly need plenty of it along the way.

You can succeed without investing money. But you will need patience and be willing to put in a bit more effort.

Here are the tasks you can do that will generate money without you having to put in money:

1) Sell TripleClicks products. There are thousands to choose from. Jewellery, books, clothes, teas, coffees, handphones, tablets, etc. You can target your promotions for better likelihood of sales. With sales you will get commissions.

2) Promote the Eager Zebra games. People like to play games. Especially the kids nowadays with the online games which I see around me everyday. So there is Card King, Knock Out Trivia, Gold Streak, Time Machine, Pick the Price. There is surely people out there who would be excited at the prospect of a new game to try out. To play, they will need TCredits. So each sale of TCredits will get you commissions.

3) Promote Pricebenders Auction. Imagine getting an iPad at 2.99. Or a Kindle, or a Bluetooth Speaker, or a Chromebook. People can get addicted to auctions, believe me. To id, they will need TCredits. Each sale of TCredits will get you commissions.

4) Promote the ECA programme. You say that there are already sooo many products on TripleClicks, won't it get saturated? No way. If you go by country, not all countries have many ECAs. If you are from one of them, then it is your opportunity t make money by getting local stores to become an ECA and list their products on TripleClicks. There are many who wanted to buy something but the ECA doesn't ship to their country. A great opportunity for you there. And you will get 10% commission from each and every sale!! I think this is the best programme yet.

And while promoting all this, make sure you login daily and collect your VPs, True that the daily VPs will not be enough to get 1500 VPs monthly. But remember that with each sale to a PRM (not to PSA or CSA), you will get the VPs too!! So start selling enough to make up the 1500 VPs.

You can do it. See what I mean by patience and effort?

YES it's possible to earn money from SFI without investing money from your OWN pocket,
SFI has many different sources of income and many of them do not require you to spend money from your own pocket.

1. You earn 45% of commission value (CV) by selling products from TripleClicks to anyone even if they are not an affiliate of SFI.
2. You can earn 45% of CV from the purchases of your recruited affiliates.
3. You earn all the sales for selling your own old stuff but you need to earn Free TC first.
4. You earn by finding affiliates from free websites and send them to SFIPPA link.
5. You earn By recruiting people to sell at TripleClicks through ECA program.

Any of the above do not require you to spend money.

But if you want to tap on the gold mine of SFI, which is the "executive pool" you need to spend part of your income in order to qualify.

Your share at the executive pool depends on the number of Versa Points (VP) you earned. There are two kinds of VP that you need to earn in order to qualify. Action VP (AVP) which is from your daily activities and VP from sales (SVP) which is from your own purchases. So if you don't purchase then you will not qualify for the Executive pool.

The BIG source of your VP will be coming from matching points so you also need to build your downlines because you have the potential of harvesting matching points up to 12 generations.

Building your downlines can be done without spending money but you need to be very skillful in affiliate marketing and it will require you lots of time to build your team. To hasten this process and make it faster you also need to spend money to advertise on paid sites or buy affiliates from TripleClicks vendors.

Q:
"Can I be successful in SFI without investing any money? And if so, how?"

A:
The short answer is YES. You can't succeed to a point without financial investment. That is if you don't consider the investment of your time to be worth anything. SFI is an opportunity that requires no financial investment to start growing a second income. However if you have discretionary funds to invest monthly in certain business trade tools and promotional advertising, that will drastically shorten the time frame to reach your financial goals.

“How to achieve success without a financial investment”.
I always use the narrative of - FIRST THINGS FIRST!
Once you've signed up FREE, then complete you PROFILE in detail, answering all the questions so your up-line sponsors and co-sponsors are able to better help you. Include a smiling head-shot photo so people can see your friendly face. Who their dealing with.
Once you have signed up you'll get directed to you SFI Affiliate Center. Through those “Tabs” you can locate all information, instruction, lessons, knowledge base, forums, help and support.
On the same main page in the top right find three Tabs; START – SFI BASICS – LAUNCH PAD. Visit these tabs daily until you know the content and have completed all lessons in the first 30 days. This will help you know how to find answers to the majority of your questions and how to function proficiently on a daily basis.

However,.. don't get bogged down with information overload. That will lead to mental paralysis do to over analysis. Just set aside a certain amount of time daily to go through the learning process.

In the mean time just implement the KISASS method. (Keep It Simply And Short Stupid). You'll find 3 easy steps by clicking the BASICS BUTTON on your Affiliates Center. Then follow those directions.

Best wishes and good luck. Just remember luck is where preparation meets opportunity and persistence!

So, can you become successful in SFI without spending any money towards your business?

You can read many Forum posts and ASK SC answers about how to earn EA without spending any money. And you can read and believe that you can build your business bigger than EA2 without spending any money, but what are you sacrificing by not spending any money?

Becoming successful at SFI is more than becoming EA or EA2. It's more than earning $1.00 a month. It's maybe even more than $1000.00 a month. In SFI total success involves duplication which leads to leveraging time and thus to residual income. Anything less than that is not a lasting success. It can fall apart the minute you go into the hospital, etc.

If you have money to spend, don't play games with your future to see if, or prove you can, become successful without spending anything. It will take much longer to build a team if you do not do some sort of payment for advertising. You can do it, but you must advertise often and never give up if the sign ups are slow in coming and slow in building their business. Advertising for free takes a lot of time and knowledge and practice.

Start by writing up a month long grocery list of things you normally buy every month or so. While buying these products will benefit your business, it can not be said that you are investing in your business. You would be spending this money anyway

Technically, when you engage in transfer buying, the money you give to TC is not being spent on your business. But it is helping bring your business closer to success and you are laying down a wise path for your team to duplicate. And you will begin to gather SVP and MRP that will benefit you and your business.

As you use these products, you will decide which you like well enough to advertise. When you are responsible for selling products, you will be rewarded for those sales by being given a commission.

Doing business is not just taking in money. It's a two way deal. In order to take in money, you must provide products or services. For it to become a business and not just a one time only affair, you must provide products and services on an on going basis.

The products that you must provide can be found at TripleClicks, or you can become an ECA. In either event, those products must be sold and bought by someone. Selling TC Direct products or other ECAs' products allows you to sell without investing in keeping the products in stock.

There are also services found in this group also, but they are different than the services you must provide in a successful business. Your services must comprise of maintain, gathering, training and encouraging new recruits.

Without spending any money, it is very difficult to find rewards to give your team members for work well done, and for team contests. Remember, they will duplicate your actions. If you do not support the total SFI program, then you are not supporting your sponsor, and your PSAs will not support you. A 3 to 5 star rating does not bring you any money, it only let's you get what you deserve in commissions and other rewards.

You can be successful without investing any money but it will take longer. We have a few affiliates that have already done so. But, you need to understand it will probably take longer and will take more of your time.

You need to concentrate on promoting products from Tripleclicks on which you will earn a commission. You can even list your own products for sale.

You need to post as many free ads as possible for recruiting purposes and promote as much as you can to family friends, local people. Print flyers from the marketing section and place them in public places (with permission, of course). Great places are public bulletin boards like in Libraries, Labor Dept, College Campuses and stores or work places.

Understand, that once you do start seeing some income, you will need to start re-investing in your business to see more growth.
