"X-Cards are inexpensive, full-color, business-card-sized "mini brochures" that can be used in a wide variety of ways to get the word out about the SFI business opportunity, TripleClicks products or Wave3."

The above is the official definition of the X-Cards. You can find it at page 7 of the Marketing aids
https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/MarketingCenter?form=MarketingAids&pg=7

Your question seems to focus only on SFI. It may well intentionally exclude Tripleclicks and other streams of income. It may also just be a general expression, in your mind, that covers all of the SFI group, including Tripleclicks and other income streams alike. In any case, it really does not matter what your intention is, in formulating your question. What matters is the effective use of the X-Cards to grow our overall business, not neglecting any potential source of revenues and maximizing all our streams of income.

First, let's proceed with an inventory of the X-Cards. It may be very useful to help all affiliates know what is available. Only then, will their effective use be fully rewarding.

The "Marketing Aids" section under the the grey tab "Marketing", above at the Affiliate Center, is divided in 9 sub-sections. One is specific to the SFI Marketing aids. The SFI X-Card is the one that displays the official definition. Another sub-section is for the Tripleclicks "Marketing Aids". The Tripleclicks X-Cards are found on the first page of that sub-section.

There are also X-Cards for the Eager Zebra (EZ) Games. They are located at the first page of the EZ "Marketing Aids"

Finally, there are X-Cards for the SFI PPA, similar to the SFI cards, as these income streams have closely related goals pertaining to the referral of Affiliates. Those X-Cards may be found at page 3 of the PPA "Marketing Aids" sub-section
https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/MarketingCenter?form=MarketingAids&category=PPA&favorite=0&pg=3

This inventory is highly useful, for those of us who wish to engage in advanced niche marketing, promoting all the SFI/Tripleclick group of streams of income.

One major part of the efficient use of these X-Cards is a focus on specific markets where we can find potentially interested opportunity seekers as well as prospective PRMs who will buy from the various branches of our business. This is the way to maximize our revenue potential: not to neglect any source of income. To be very effective, we have to have a laser precision targeting strategy: searching, identifying and analysing the buying motives of our potential customers. For example, we know that there are billions of dollars spent every year on online gaming. The EZ X-Card is an excellent online tool for reaching those players.

The next question, then, is how to engage in promotion activities using these marketing aids? As discussed above, I believe that we can use both online and offline marketing.

For online marketing, we can save the pictures, and/or take screenshots we can post in all the online marketing media we are using: websites, blogs. social media groups, advertising avenues, and everywhere we can display visual aids.

As for offline marketing, in the section of "Marketing methods, SFI offers us a wide range of ideas, using printed material. We will find many ways of using the X-cards there
https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/MarketingCenter?form=MarketingMethods

They include the following:

(a) "Giving out X-Cards to friends, family members, co-workers, associates, etc"

(b) "Sending out X-Cards in every outgoing piece of mail we have (like electric bills, water bills, NetFlix/Blockbuster DVD returns, etc.)

(c) "Leaving X-Cards with our bill/tip each time you dine out at a restaurant"

(d) "Whenever we take a taxi or ride public transportation, "forgetting" X-Cards on the seat before we exit

In addition, the business card size of the X-Cards makes them very easy to carry and handy to give out when we interact with prospects in various settings, (1) at business gatherings, (2) when we visit car dealers, (3) at the local libraries, (4) when we strike conversations with other passengers while using public transportation, (5) at grocery store checkouts, (6) at restaurants when leave a generous tip.

In doing so, it is of critical importance that we make sure the X-Cards do have the correct information on our sponsoring and sales gateways, to ensure that we get proper credit of our promotional efforts.

The SFI X-Card is like your business card containing eye catchy ads about SFI on the front. At the back of the card is a summary of SFI facts and numbers declaring the popularity and credibility of a well established online home based business. The professional design of SFI X-Cards makes an excellent tool to promote your SFI business.

Here are some good ways to effectively use SFI X-Cards:

- When using your SFI X-Cards in promoting your SFI business always keep a small stash in your wallet, in your car, in your coat pocket, at your desk and in your briefcase. Hand one out every time you talk about your business to anyone, whether a retail clerk, a CEO or someone in line with you in a store. Give out two or three to your most valuable contacts to increase the chance that they do not lose their sole copy.

- At bulletin boards in local establishment, you can tack a few of your SFI X-Cards.

- At your local businesses you might find a designated place for placing small stacks of your SFI X-Cards.

- You might be amazed at the number of retail storefronts that display a bulletin board for local postings, a book for business cards in a lobby or a place to lay out business cards on a counter where you can also place a few of your SFI X-Cards. You need to search in your area for locally owned shops for the best chance to spread your SFI X-Cards.

- Insert your SFI X-Cards onto other materials in mailings and flier campaigns. For example if you roll out an ECA postcard campaign, make sure your SFI X-Card is included in each mailing. Include your SFI X-Card with any written correspondence you send to businesses dealing with your household utilities such as Electricity, Heating and Gas Company and so on.
-
Give small stacks of your SFI X-Cards to friends, family and close contacts in the business world, and ask them to hand out a card to anyone they meet who could be interested in home based business opportunity. Friends and family can act as champions for your brand, especially for industries where personal references can make or break a business. If you have 10 people handing your SFI X-Cards to people looking for a business like yours, you can boost your SFI X-Cards’ marketing effectiveness tenfold.

SFI X Cards can be distributed in many ways. I have found the following strategies to work so please feel free to read and either use or not use - there is no one specific way to effectively use SFI- X cards but only ways that you feel confident in using in your own business.

Strategies:

ECA recruitment info package - include an SFI-X card with your introduction package for ECA's to join SFI and share with them how other affiliates can assist with spreading the word about their products on the TripleClicks store with the marketing products available to all affiliates including the X-Cards.

Coffee Shops - many coffee shops will have a designated spot to let local businesses leave business cards in a stack to be picked up by coffee shop patrons. This is great exposure not only to the patrons of the coffee shop but also for the coffee shop itself as the management can then consider using TripleClicks as a way to promote their product line such as coffee gift cards, coffee mugs, and coffee products.

Library Books - I have returned library books from the business section with an X-card left in it exposed as a book mark. I will purposefully book mark a spot for the next reader of the book a chapter that I personally found interesting and useful. The X-card then will find a new owner and can become a simple recruitment tool.

Poster Boards - Grocery stores will often promote business information on a local community board accessed by all who go grocery shopping. Ask for permission to post several cards at the grocery store that you frequent and see them disappear. When the cards are gone simply refill by posting another stack (5 - 10). Check every week.

Restaurants - when leaving after eating a meal or having a drink leave a card behind with your dirty dishes so that the waiter or waitress can pick up the card or leave a card in the napkin holder for the next patron to see and take for self.

Mail going out - this strategy is from a Launch Pad lesson - just place a card in mail that you are sending out such as a payment for a bill. I send from work a minimum of 15 mailed items each week so that means I minimally have 60 opportunities to share the X-card.

The cards are meant for distribution and the only way this will happen is by exposing the card by sharing with the public.

Many of us do not notice this powerful tool in recruiting Personally Referred Member (PRM) to TripleClicks. As we know we get 45% of the commission value (CV) of all the purchases of our PRM. So there is a great potential income by using X-cards.

Many of us also do not know what are X-Cards. This is a card a size of a business card that we buy from TripleClicks at $4.13 per 50 pcs. pack.

We have several designs of X-cards, and it features what we find from TripleClicks. This include, all the items sold for shopping, pricebenders, the different games, the music contest and many more.

What you need to do is to write or stamp your SFI ID number on a blank bar provided on the card. Then start distributing your x-cards.

Once the person who received it try to verify the link in the card they will be directed to tripleclicks.com/go. They will be asked to put it an SFI ID and they will use your ID that you wrote on the Card. Presto!! they will be your PRM.

Now the question is how can you effectively use these X-cards so that you can have maximum results. Here is the way I use it.

1. My priority are those people that I know and personally talked about TripleClicks or some feature in Triple Clicks like auction. Depending on the interest of the person I told them that they can find it at TripleClicks.

2. I use to leave this X-cards together with little tip I gave to the waiter in the restaurant.

3. I also leave this cards whenever I ride a taxi usually, I use the back seat so that the driver will not notice it until the next passenger gets on board.

4. I sometime distribute it in the mall while waiting for my wife and sitting in a public chair and someone seats beside me.

I made a target of distributing the 50 cards in one month before my next order arrives. On the average I am getting 5 PRM's every month and the most people who buy are those that I talked to personally. That is why they are my priority.

By leaving x-Cards on bulletin boards, tables, washrooms, in library books on marketing, with tips, etc., you are getting them out to where the public is, but is this the most effective way to use them? Chances are that most of them will be thrown away without being read.

The most effective way to give them out is by doing it face to face with some words about the opportunity. "I've been in this for some time and I am looking for a few more people who want help setting up their own home business." If you leave it at that, they may or may not check it out. At least they have a face and an impression about your honesty, integrity and ability whether they are right or not. It's up to you to give a good impression. Ask them to give the card to someone they know is looking for that kind of opportunity.

Go two steps further, offer and do put your name and phone or email on the cards for his convenience. Don't put this on before you talk to him. That way you have a little control over who has that information. And then ask if he would give his contact information to you. Write that on another X-Card so that you know what he is looking at.

Now you have the information you need to make a follow-up call and thank him for taking your card. Ask him if he checked it out and what he thinks about it. Did he give the card to another person? Will he introduce you to that person?

This all takes practice but you will get better as you go. There's no guarantee that this card won't be thrown away, but you might get two birds with one shot.

And don't forget to use a key code on the cards that you personally hand out and another key code on the ones you leave places.

Firstly, X-Cards are fairly cheap so they are a good product for business building. A 50 Pack of TripleClicks X-Cards costs $4.13 USD which is only a relatively small amount.

Purchase a pack of these cards and on the back, enter your SFI ID. These cards are a little different from the SFI cards which are designed to bring in new PSAs. These TripleClicks cards are designed to bring in customers to the TripleClicks store.

The more members you can bring in to the TripleClicks store by entering your ID on the back of the cards, the better it is. For everyone who makes a purchase, you receive a commission.

If you make a note to yourself to purchase 1 pack of these cards each month and give them all out, you are bound to get some TripleClicks signups.

If you can afford it, you can also give some of these new members a Gift Certificate. Even though you are spending money on a Gift Certificate, you reap the benefits when they make a purchase.

What is the old saying, “what goes around comes around” or “it takes money to make money”

So you can see that an investment of $4.13USD once per month can be of great benefit to you. You might find that your signups also participate in the other benefits of TripleClicks as well such as the auctions and the games. This is great as TCredits are required for the games so if you get some interested customers, they may purchase TCredits to play these games.

As well as cash, the X-Cards can be purchased with MRP or TCredits and you earn 50VP with your purchase.

Hand them out freely. Each time you send a letter or pay a bill by letter, put one in the envelope. There are many places these can be handed out or left. Pin them on your local notice board as well.

All round a great tool.
