Continue to encourage your affiliates to log in and do the daily tasks. Like any business owner that opens up a store, you always show up whether your customers do or not. Like most business owners we all spend more time working than counting the pennies in the till. Keep your expenses low and spend only what you need to help your business grow (even if it’s one Tcredit a day) when you can afford it. It is more important to learn, work and grow by completing tasks on your Versa Point Ledger than

It is hard for us in the USA to imagine that it can be VERY difficult for others around the world to afford $22.00 or $29.00 a month to buy Standing Orders. We are RICH compared to many around the world. I mention this because the answer is for us who can probably spare money for giving boosts those who are in our downline means for purchasing SOs or giving them gift certificates, etc. Naturally, wisdom tells us to those who are truly seeking a better way of life and show their willingness to grow

I think this is an area of great concentration and challenging for most SFI sponsors because their PSAs and CSAs often find it difficult to buy because of financial difficulty. We know that in SFI, affiliates needs to buy sometimes to maintain their ranks.
The best help I always offer to my affiliates is to teach them how to sell on Tripleclicks. They can refer people to buy at Tripleclicks in other to earn Versapoints and commissions. THANKS

There are many ways to advertise their business without having to spend anything. Helping them learn how to properly promote (especially TripleClicks) will get them earning money without having to spend anything or very little. Then when they start earning money help them with smart ways to reinvest part of their earnings that will have them continually going their income.

Make sure they know about the bonus points when they sign up. If they are serious about the business and put in the time you will see it. It is very possible for these affiliates to get through the first two months free. I did. I am currently on my third so we'll see. Also Make sure they realize they can use bonus free tcredits and mrp's to purchase ebooks and gain information AND vp's. On top of that the new gift cards are an amazing tool for you to get them motivated and teach them to pay it forward

Be frank! Money cannot be generated without anybody investing. So, the fact is that you have to tell your PSA that this is an e-commerce business which involves some investment in the form of buying products online. However, you should convince them that it is not compulsory to buy to get involved with the business but ultimate fact is that this involves buying or selling of products or services at least in some stage your business. This should be the bottom line!!!

You have to INVEST to PROGRESS with this or any business. This not just money it's time and energy of logging in everyday following the to do list, launchpad, and vp ledger. Exploring the site and asking questions either using the ASK SC or of your sponsor or upline.

YES. This is a very good and valid question. even though all the marketing aids are there on sfi itself, its very difficult for people who cant afford to spend money initially to get affiliates and versa points every month which results in very slow and poor growth

Help them learn as much as they can, always room for more! And spread the word to everyone! They must know folks that can afford to build their own business and in turn this will build theirs! And with this being said, write down those GOALS and don't be afraid to change them! Good Luck!
