If you see that your newly joined affiliate is online, I would say greet them with a Team Mail rather than chatting. It would create a professional your impression of yours in his mind and in your mail include all those an ideal welcome mail must consist.
Bottomline is try to develop the initial contact through the Team Mails, you can use the chat box once you are used to with the affiliate.

This is a delightful position to be in! Thanks for asking. When you sponsor an affiliate, the first you want to do is introduce yourself and let them know that you are glad to assist in any way that you can. It is critical that you make a good first impression with them in the first 24 to 48 hours. SFIChat is okay and if you can engage your new affiliate this way great! I like email because I can answer multiple messages at the same time and I always answer my emails. You don't need to go into

I open a chat window, I say Hello, Thank them and welcome them to the team. I assure them they have joined a great business. Then I tell them I am sending a proper welcome message.

I then go to their profile and learn a little about them. Where they are from, what motivates them, what is it they want to accomplish with SFI.

I then send a welcome email
1. Telling them about who I am, inviting them to visit me on FB (no business, get to know me).
2. I tell them in

I have an email template I keep on file that I send them via the email they've used to register with SFI. If I use their registered email and it bounces back undeliverable, then I wait until I send out a new PSA Team Mail.

In my template letter, I welcome them to SFI and offer them the links to my new affiliate training videos on my blog.

I then point them to SBI Basics and the LaunchPad, and invite them to follow along with the videos for a better understanding of the system.

So

Although I am really new to SFI, I followed the lead of my sponsor. I immediately contact them and welcome them, saying I am excited to be their sponsor and that I am here to help them succeed. I do tell them that SFI has so many tools available, that for the first week or two, simply log in, do their to do list, and learn all they can so they don't get overwhelmed.

First and foremost, I must say congratulations that someone signed up under your link, secondly you will welcome the person to SFI and give the person assurance that you will be available to assist him or her on any issues/questions relating to SFI.
