This is a good question. The badges are important in the sense that they are elements of recognition of their work. We sometimes work hard in establishing the foundations of our company SFI. All these actions can pass into oblivion, but the thing that can sustain them, are the badges. Badges are better motivators for ourselves and for our downline. The badge is a gift or a certificate of recognition for the work we have done. Who can say that he is not happy to receive gifts or tokens of recognition

In every profession and business there is something that differentiates one cadre or category from one another. In SFI the same applies hence the need for badges.
The following are the reasons why I believe badges are necessary: -
It bestows prestige and honor
It shows level of commitment
It attracts attention
It portrays accomplishment
It advertises the element of hard work achieved through following the rules of success of SFI
It gives respect and attracts followers

Badges provided by SFI have a significant role to play.

First and foremost , it gives satisfaction to you that you are going in right direction and gradually getting success in what you are doing.

Secondly,this badges earn you respect from your co-affiliates, as they know how difficult this badges are to be earned.

Finally, badges may be shown off to your new or prospective PSA's. But in my view as they all are new member's and don't know ,what this badge's means

The badges are important because it shows your team that you are doing as you teach. For example if I tell them that it is important to earn EA or better every month and don't have at least EA myself, they won't think that it is actually important and probably won't become an EA themselves. However, practicing what you preach does show a commitment that is going to be respected, and followed by at least some of your team. Seeing the badges lets your team know what you are doing to build you SFI

FANTATIC QUESTION because BADGES ARE FANTASTIC!!! This is my first attempt at answering one of these questions, but I'm excited about this one. It's the motivator that keeps me going month after month. The recognition is even better than the commissions! I'm very proud of my 12 badges, especially the one that says #1 Power Rank. Even though that is for being the best of the affiliates that joined on the same date as myself it looks like I'm THE EXPERT to my new and old affiliates alike.

Badges are a good indicator of how active an SFI affiliate is with working and participating in the programs. You can see their rank from Aff thru PTL. They also tell you their Power Rank[s] and the programs within SFI they use and like. For instance An IAHBE badge informs us they like what they get from being a member there... and they can be asked why they like IAHBE and if they recommend to you.

So it's relatively easy to determine how much they know about all the facets available within
