It is okay if you aren't good at sales! That's the great thing about SFI! There are so many options for you to make commissions! Simply create your OWN FREE online store with TripleClicks. Think of something you are passionate about, and sell items from those hobbies you enjoy. One of the things I really enjoy is cooking. I looked in TripleClicks and found there wasn't many items in the kitchen department. I knew in town that they had a kitchen store. I asked the owner if I can sell his products

When people think of sales they think about the worse case sales jobs. Those aren't sales those are peddlers. Sales is when we find out what people want and need; because we asked them and they told us. So being a good sales person means being good at asking questions. Being good at listening to answers. Then we introduce clients to the product or program that will give them the benefit they desire. So never think of yourself as a sales person ... you are a problem solver!

If you are not a people person don't fret. There are other ways to promote sfi without actively preaching to others. A good way to advertise is to send a flyer out in each piece of mail you send no matter where you are sending it. Another good strategy is to hang up flyers on cork boards around your community. Lastly you could also put an ad in papers in and around where you live. I hope this advice is helpful.

I sincerely have never considered sales as my strong suit although I will do in the future. You could have a strong duplication and ensure that your SO is functional. Also carry out sales that would also produce reviews for enough VPs for your qualification. Do not leave much stones un turn. Visit your site daily and study more means to earn you a full time income. In my opinion it would not come so soon. You need to grow your business here first.

If you aren't good at sales, work to find PSA's who are good at sales.

1. Purchase as many s-builder coop units as you can afford.

2. Check out the other coops and try some of them that do sales of Triple Clicks products for you.

Coops are the cheapest way to obtain affiliates and TC sales if you don't have the ability to do it well yourself.

you have only 3 ways Sales, sponsoring, or ECA's and if your not good in sales then you focus on getting people to join you and getting businesses to join SFI or triple clicks.
Your main focus is to get them to go to SFI or triple clicks and let SFI speak for it self an what it has to offer people or business. You get them to go there and most likely they will join 99 percent of the time. Always talk about the number of people in SFI or triple clicks.

Every business is built on it's body of members and the strengths that they each bring to the table.

You may not be good at sales but if you advertise your SFI links by placing ads, mailing postcards(ex.using a mailing list),buying and passing out SFI x-cards,printing and giving out flyers, you will get people who will be great at sales.

From there, they will promote Triple Clicks for themselves using TC resources to promote their links. These are what you should focus on

Success in SFI will boil down to having a LOT of affiliates. And this is usually the bottleneck. specially if a person is shy and can't even present SFI to friends. To tell you even if you are not shy and is good in sales talk you can not get the amount of affiliates needed to be successful in SFI. You must have a steady flow of affiliates month after month. The most effective way of getting affiliates is not by sales talk but working hard with your online ads whether its paid or free. You can even

The word "sales" can be replaced by the word "help"...to change the reason why someone is an associate of SFI from selling to helping people can make all the difference to that associate's activity. I help people every day by letting them know about what Triple Clicks has to offer - opportunity to own a business, opportunity to buy tools or books to help with entrepreneurial needs or buy house hold products that are needed. Helping to connect people with resources is what SFI
