Thank you for this question because it is one that I have been pondering and for me the answer to the question, "How do you get affiliates to understand that SFI is a serious business with serious earnings potential ... and not just a hobby?" is that as a team leader, I must step up to the plate and set the example. If I am not taking my role as an affiliate and business owner seriously, how can I expect my team to take it seriously?
One way that the team can see how serious I actually take my business is to check my badges. They are proof that I am consistently working to achieve my goals. I am very proud of each one because I earned each one!
Another way that I am setting an example is by using the team mail and the stream posts to keep in touch and to keep them up to date on what is happening in SFI and to encourage them to reach their goals.
I also encourage them to have fun by playing the games and the auctions because even though though they are fun, they are also a serious way to build their business. I have won T-Credits, VP, MRP, PSAS, CSAS, etc. by playing the games and the actions.
I also advise them to read and to learn. I honestly think that the more you read, the more you gain knowledge, and the more knowledge you have, the more equipped you will be to able to reach your goals. I also encourage my team not let fear of making mistakes hold them back because they WILL make mistakes. No one makes the right choice all of the time. The best thing to do when you realize that you have made a mistake is to learn from it so that you won't repeat it.
As my team's leader, I realize that my attitude toward SFI and my business sets the standard for our team so I must make sure that I am focused on making sure that I provide the example that I want my team to follow!
