"Should I prospect people to become affiliates only from my own country...or from everywhere?"

This is a good question. I think that both are important.

If you can recruit from your own country and the language is the same, it will be easier to communicate and to give specific instruction. Your family, friends, one-on-one etc. are the easiest to train, since it would be hands-on.

However, SFI is a worldwide company. If you recruit from more countries you

Your team is a veritable tool to actualizing your SFI dream and is something that should be taken very seriously. However, events have proven that prospecting affiliates close by stand a better chance at success than from far away. It is a good way to start anyway, but should not be the only way.
It is never good to put all your eggs in a basket. Consider countries like Nepal, Philippines that suffered devastating earthquakes or countries that suffered from financial meltdown. Consider the losses

You don't want to leave everybody else in the world out of the equation.

While it's good that you want to recruit affiliates from your homeland, that's only one slice of the pie. Think about the rest of the pie (i.e., the world) that wants to get in the stomach of SFI. Market the company to anybody from every country you can think of, so that they may also sink their teeth into that tasty business pie.

I apologize for the food analogy, but hopefully this will help you find

You can prospect people from everywhere based on SFI being an international company. If your own personal prospecting comfort zone is interacting with people from your own country to promote SFI then prospect from your own country. If you have prospecting skills to interact with others from everywhere, then build your global SFI business.

Prospecting in the sense of recruiting requires people skills and effectively being able to communicate and work with another person. So when you are

I would say go everywhere and that include your country.SFI has provided its affiliates with the mechanism and the tools to prospect anywhere for PSA's.However the important fact here is the quality of those prospects.There are good (movers) as well as bad (whiners) prospects around the globe and if you advertise aggressively you will pick up some rough diamonds along the way that will generate an excellent income for you.Remember the important aspect here is to build your SFI affiliate business

The SFI is international, the Internet is practically limitless, so why limit yourself? Of course, recruiting local affiliates can be easier and work with them too, but prospecting for affiliates worldwide is fun, gives you a whole lot of different perspectives, makes you sharpen your language skills and widens the net significantly. Also, as the statistics are, like, one active PSA in every hundred or so, you will need to prospect high and low to gather real workers to your team.

Hi!
You should prospect people from everywhere to become affiliates because it would increase your chances to find more and more PSAs who will work good and become EAs.
I am not for long time in SFI and I prospected from many many countries and my best PSAs are not from my own country, not because they wouldn't do a good job, but the number of people from my country here on SFI is not that big.
The more people you prospect, the more chances you have and you never know where from

In my personal opinion should be considered both options. We can not place limitations since we live in a globalized world thanks to advances in telecommunications and the Internet. The language barrier solve it using a good translator such as Google. SFI structure is global, offering different tools to support all its members in training, advertising and marketing of their products. Naturally we started revealing SFI to our family environment, colleagues and friends. Let's say that is easier by

Good day Andjela,

Indeed, this is a nice question and I would advice to go for both.

Tripleclicks is our online shop and attracts millions of people from across the globe, likewise s builders where we cover the cost of advertising and is being advertised to both paid and unpaid site where both individuals are either affiliates from your country or from another country.

As sponsors, we should recruit affiliates relentlessly regardless of whether they are from your
