This question requires really serious consideration.

The work with SFI is easy for members in well developed countries where people use computers for decades and naturally can use the Rules of Success for work with SFI without problem. But there are many countries where internet is just starting to be promoted. Many people don’t have possibility to join and often don’t know how to start working because of limited internet connections. So work with SFI is of benefit only for

Thanks for this question.

Today's world is ruled by Internet and Smart Phones. Any individual you see on the road will be with a smart phone.

Normal phones are getting phased out slowly but steadily by all the manufacturers.

All the Internet Service Providers are vying with one another to provide internet facility with better tariff. The competition is quite huge that more and more people are switching over to smart phones with internet connectivity.

The best way to motivate such affiliates is to help them identify the time of that is best for them to access the internet with the least possibilities of being interrupted.

Mark and blot that time on his or her daily schedule or appointments calendar and communicate to every one that he or she will not be available for that window of time each day unless there is an emergency that is a matter of life and death.

Explain to him or her that it is imperative that they stick to

SFI business is an online business, therefore it demands an unlimited internet access for anyone to succeed. However, often many SFI affiliates have limited access. This limitation should not be a source of discouragement as there are commercial Cyber Cafes where daily to do tasks and other transactions could be done by buying air-time. Another alternative could be by purchasing GSM phones with browsing application and registering for airtime with subsidized or free data bundles.

Encourage them to connect whenever they are able.

If they can connect for even a half hour they can get most tasks on the To-Do list done daily.

Perhaps suggest to them that they may want to set up a standing order so that whatever situation their connection to the Internet is in they will be Executive Affiliate each month.

Either way simply be there to answer their questions as they have them and offer them whatever support you are able too.

There was a recent Ask SC question regarding what should be done with limited time of one hour per day. The answers to that question showed that success is certainly possible even with the constraints of lack of time and/or internet access.

Someone with limited internet access might concentrate on using the off line methods of generating sales and signups. There are numerous methods listed in the marketing methods.

Good day Mohammed,

Working with affiliates with very limited internet access will have to priotise his or her work schdule so as to ensure he/she has time to use the internet in places like cyber cafes, wifi and hotspot areas. Also, he or she can use use a library where there are internet services or University Campuses where there are internet services. Remember that these are just few places you can use the internet though there can be more which is dependent of the Country you reside

Hopefully there is a library,McDonalds,Burger King or coffee shop
near by that you can use the internet for free.

I would suggest they log in every day and do the To Do daily tasks.
E-mail you can catch up with anytime.

Best thing is to have an E-Mail just for SFI. This would help a great deal.

If a person is really motivated,they will find a way.

For someone that has limited access to the internet, Warm Market Advertising is the way to go. There is a great list of Warm Market ideas at https://www.sfimg.com/Support/Solution?id=199321&referrer=search

Make some flyers and just visit places that have a crowd gathered. Make a list of people that you know, places that will let you put up signs or posters, and have some business cards printed that you can hand out, and place on bulletin boards.
