Yes. Its a very useful way. Not only Skype but also FB video chat and Google Video chat helped me a lot. Similar to Video Training, Video chat is more effective. I can add few points why it is so.

1- The prospect see a live person in front speaking about the opportunity. This generates faith of a legal job

2- The happiness or the facial expression of the people in chat gives us a good idea of the importunity. If you are clever , you can easily observe whether the sponsor is

Skype is best video chat service available on Internet to communicate face to face. There are other also like yahoo messenger and all but Skype is best for its video and audio Quality. I always prefer to use it for talking with my friends and my team members of SFI.

I have Used Skype earlier for some of my PSAs of foreign to get them know what is SFI, actually. Most of people were being confused with different keywords like VP, MRP, TC, PSA, CSA and all that. And all this things cant be

I am using Skype to assist my PSAs/CSAs/A2A Friends. It is very effective tool and it is giving me excellent results, as:

1. Making life easier by audio/visual facility at Skype rather than lots of typing.
2. Saving time and getting results faster.
3. Through video chat, even a novice member can understand and react faster.
4. It gives good impression to new members that SFI is a real business & upline cares.
5. It creates trust and friendly platform to work together

Attending meetings while you’re working from home was next to impossible a few years back. But with today’s technology and different communication platforms, you can connect to the office even if you’re working from home.Its very much effective for the skilled marketter.

Beginner also can utilise and get results by following these steps.

Much like public speaking and conversations, using Skype also means you need to abide by certain rules and etiquette.

Skype has proved to be effective for me because it is easier to use for face to face communication with team members and on the spot most issues relating to moving our team forward are agreed and resolved.

It gives one the opportunity to have a direct contact knowing that you are communicating with a real person whom you are viewing life as you chat and discuss your SFI business together and way forward.

The very good aspect of it all is getting to know your team member as you

I suggest you to use skype because of its better result than any other video chat service and the to suggest you this is

the use of Skype is a very good idea for your SFI business and its very effective. My reason for saying so is that:

1. you get to see or talk to your team one on one

2. it gives you a sense of belonging

3. you can easily without the stress of typing explain to your team members clear to any question they may ask.

4. you will be able first hand to show them how successful you are with examples and charts which will in turn motivate your team to do better

Great question:-

Skype is a good option to share and work closely with your team Members. Its effective for the following points:

1. You can actually share screens and work together on the way forward and what
actions should be taken when a team member is stuck eg. how to place a Standing
order etc and also solve queries immediately. Thus time effective.
2. You can hold conference calls with all your team members, it works well especially
