This is a good question to learn from and to those who are eager to excel more.

No. That is the answer. Marketing and duplication should not be only to people from your own country alone.

This is why many of the SFI Affiliates build up a website and day-today working hard, trying to spread to all other countries.

SFI Commission business might be more lucrative for you in some countries other than your own country depending on the term "who is available"

IN a way it is easier to recruit people from your own surroundings and in your own language but I would recommend being open to the whole world. To me it is not the least important where my team comes from as communication goes mostly via Internet. However I am using my country connections in another way.

-I have gone to the local job center and recruited prospects there. Most of those coming there are immigrants or other people looking for a job. Many are also interested in any other

Thank you for your question. Now I have a question for you, why would limit yourself only to prospects from your own country? With today's technology you can reach out and touch billions where not to long ago you were limited to reaching out to the people nearest to you.
If your main concern is different languages, you can use a translator. I do realize that will take more time but it would be time well spent if you get a hardworking PSA! If you are building your downline and you have

That's a good question Andjela.
I will answer this both from your perspective as well as mine. The answer lies in the reasons why we all join SFI.
From my perspective, why I joined SFI was that I was looking for a home based business which could be done from home. After joining a lot of internet based programmes I found SFI miles ahead of any comparable programme. None of them are anywhere near to it.
The income we can generate is primarily by making sales at tripleclicks. If we

This is a very good question. I think SFI is designed to invite all kinds of affiliates from anywhere in the world. If we are really ambitious and want to do business online we must promote it every parts of the world.

As I have worked for different companies in different countries. As I find people migrate from one country to another country to earn money. Why not we promote and explain people that all over the world they can travel through net and make friends and do business online.

Hello Dear,

Good question!
It'll please you to know that SFI as a business is limitless. If you prospect people to become affiliates form your home country alone you are limiting the capacity of the growth of your business.
Hence, getting affiliates from everywhere is the best option i'd say.

There might be one or two few reasons why home country downlines are better to target but they aren't that far different from others worldwide for the following reasons:

1)

You will be doing yourself a big disservice if you only prospect people from your own country.

Having affiliates from your country can help you in that they are easier to reach and communicate with. However, there is no guarantee that people from your country will be active and productive team members.

If you build a team with people from everywhere, you have people who can help you understand different countries & cultures better.

You can also cultivate team

If you had an SFI referral link somewhere online - on your own site or elsewhere - and somebody from a country other than your own signed up at SFI, would you then contact them and ask them to opt out? I would think not.

If you're worried about language being a barrier you can use an online translator. Even if you don't, if your affiliate is serious about SFI, they might.

You can also reassign affiliates who speak a certain language to other affiliates on your team who speak

I like your question!

I personally do not make a difference!

If someone wants to do this job, language is not important , they only need desire and willingness to learn and work!

Sponsor is also not important as somebody think!

My sponsor is from my country and some of up-lines but I did not learn from them ....read, read and learn from SFI site!

Good luck , share your advertising all over the world and talk with people around you!

Hi!

One thing i like about this job is for having the chance to meet people from other countries.
Of course, it is much easier to communicate with somebody who speaks your language,but try not to make a barrier with that.
I have affiliates from my country with who i do not have any communication,they are not active and for now all my efforts did not work.
But i have a very good communication with affiliates from other countries,who are working.
So ,for me,it dos not
