Budgeting for your investment in SFI is something only you can determine since we do not know what you can or cannot do. I'm sure you have been given numerous amounts with some being in the ballpark you are looking for. Still it all falls back on your shoulders for the set amount.

I started out with a $100-$200 a month budget but this has grown considerable over the past several months of trying to build this business. The reason for this is I set goals almost daily to achieve my VP status and leadership level for the month.

I have to scrape the bottom of the barrel each month to obtain the AVP needed to reach my leadership level goal. I complete all daily, weekly and monthly tasks as required. I receive the 300 AVP for gift card distribution and the 500 AVP for bidding at auctions each month.

I have some fun with bidding on the auctions. You need to have the mind set that you are investing back into your business to do what I do. I look for the auction that has the bid assist, Samsung Chromebook is a good one to look for, and see how many I can get to turn off the bid assist. My most recent one the price was at $1.66 and we ran it up to $8.69+ and four bidders turned off the bid assist. I only see this as an investment back into my business. With the PSAs, MRP and the drawings all auctions are a win-win for all bidders.

I hope this helps you with your decision. Good luck!

This is a very "personal" matter for each affiliate since everyone's situation is different.

In my case, I have been on a budget of $56.00 per month since I started (that's what it costs for my Standing Order) and have not spent anything above that except to pay for auctions I've won, purchases of "non-SFI" items from TripleClicks, etc.

There were, of course, several months where I was spending more than was coming in, but I have been in profit for the last several months, so now it technically costs me nothing to keep my business going.

depending on what you can spend, but first, I recommend the first 10 days if you are a member of the box to buy https://www.tripleclicks.com/detail.php?item=381607.

if you stay more than 10 days are busy placing a standing order https://www.tripleclicks.com/detail.php?item=212474 recommend this makes you an equal EA.

and a standing order of https://www.tripleclicks.com/detail.php?item=408585

if you can afford it you this is the shortest way to success.

on the other hand if you you can not afford it, there is sure to have the ability to be a team leader and success. through building your own site on wordpress. and so your affiliates to get your gateway but can you explain the Agency program to local entrepreneurs and to register via this gateway you from every sale you earn your share thus you can also buy a standing order over time. but you can do all three at once

Make your own website with you Gateways

Hello
What is a good financial budget to start with for the SFI?
That's the difference from person to person. J and the first to go with minimal investment especially if you are at the beginning of the status of AFF or EA. If you are at the beginning it is important to doing the daily, weekly and monthly tasks, play games and create your team. If you can not collect 1500vp only use the minimum investment to get to that. But first you create a team of people that will work only then look to go to a higher satatus. I take the example of the SO 125 TCredita for $ 36.25 and it's great to immediately reach the rank of EA and go with Aciona points his team to a higher status. Depending on your options and can invest more but remember if you do not have a team that raddi you invested the money you will not come back and you are really at a loss.We are not here to compete with someone who will have a higher status or to invest. we are here to create and develop job and earn for themselves.

My opinion is that in the first 30 days it is not necessary to invest money - unless I associate it does not want.
In the second month, but can be invested, but on condition that the user is already advertised and have at least 2 new active members.
Anything less than that - I would not advise any investment!
A good financial budget would be:
- $ 36 for 125TC
- $ 35 for advertising in the media
Good luck!

Will will say $300, some will say $500 and others may say $100 should be enough. What I can tell you for sure is that before you start making such plans, have an idea where you are coming from and where you are headed. What do you want to achieve? Do you just want to keep qualifying for EA2 every month or make team leader, what your goal is will decide what your budget should look like.

Hope this helps.

You should understand one thing for sure, that the first one month SFI is a self sustain and self contained business organisation that don't need a penny to kick off.
However before any budget is needed it should be on second month. But as a starter one is loaded
With enough task through which all VP Needed that month is achieved. Therefore I will kindly advise you to shift your budget to the second month.
Never the less with little like $300 to $350 should keep you up and going for the second month.
Reason is that you have to place a Standing Order which should cover for the 1500 VP needed. Hope that help.

Within my first week with SFI, I have always had a budget to work with. It included a standing order to qualify as Executive Affiliate (EA), and a S-Builder Co-op unit. Since then, PSAs-to-go have been introduced.

The ideal budget to start with to build an SFI business should include all the above, and a 30 pack of Gift cards for prospecting. You can find the cost of each item and add it up.

If you have the financial resources and willingness to set up such a budget, I would highly recommend you do so. You will be handsomely rewarded and will start seeing results faster.

However, there is more than a budget in being successful with SFI on the long term. Financial resources are only one aspect. There are other majors components that need to be incorporated in our business development strategy. Sales of TripleClicks products, sponsoring from our warm markets as well as advertising in all locations of potential prospects, promoting Pricebenders auctions and Eager Zebra games should be integral parts of our strategy.

One second important aspect is to have a financial strategy.

Our budget should also help us build a solid foundation of business grow, make progress on a constant basis. From this, our business should generate more resources for further investments and sustained growth.

We need to avoid making the mistake to spend the whole investment budget, even in very worthy expenditures, and exhaust it without making any significant progress and without generating new financial resources to sustain the investment efforts and move the business forward.

Start with $100.00 . This does not mean that you will spend all of it in one day or one month, instead I would try to stretch it out to last for your first three months as an SFI affiliate.

So now the next question is how to spend it wisely which to me is the tricky part. The first investment is a Standing Order of one pack of 100 TCredits firstly because it costs about $29.95 a month and you will get 1200 VP every month.

With my T Credits month I would suggest you use at least 10 of them for member listing or garage sales so that you can get some cash so that this can be used for buying advertising material
especially gift cards and pay an ECA To design a graphics page to promote them. The idea of using these Cards is for prospects to redeem them for TCredits and member Reward points so in the Graphics page they get simple instructions on how to redeem the giftCards and they also get to learn about EagerZebra Games, Member Listings, and Pricebender Auctions so from your TC members you will earn maybe another $200.00 a month if they buy TCredit Packs.

I would then buy a pack of 10 TCredits for $5.99 to replace the ones used for the member listing.

EBooks: TripleClicks sells many types of eBooks, some have resell rights so that means you can Spend another $10 or$15 on these so you can sell them.

The idea is to start with a small budget that will give you the best ROI or Return on Investment.

I hope I answered your question.
