To continue to grow as an SFI leader, I have found that one must continue to read.

>Did I mention reading? One of the prime requirements of being a leader is being a good reader, By reading one can stay abreast of changing parameters within SFI and how they may affect your affiliates.

>One should also be a good listener. When your affiliates write to you always try to understand what they are trying to convey. If you have a problem understanding don't be afraid to request clarification so that you can respond accurately to their situation.

>Continue to educate yourself in methods provided by SFI that can and will produce success. In doing this one will be better ablke to respond to questions from affiliates and you will be able to actually assist in your affiliates' training and success.

One thing I am sure of is, if you do not stay abreast of the changes within SFI you will be ill equipped to assist your affiliates.

Interesting question.
Regarding SFI I do those things:
1. Earn my daily VP
2. Sending team mail
4. Sharing what products I use and the information I have
5. Communication with the PSA/CSA, but only if they need me for assistance. I respect their personal time and development. It's individual process;
6. Reading articles and e-books regarding business

8. Working on training for SFI and my presentation skills;
Outside SFI I do the following:

If I read the question correctly you are asking what it is that I am PERSONALLY doing to grow and develop as an SFI leader.

I have joined the Warrior Forum, and have learned a lot about internet marketing which I can apply to my SFI business.

Read the "How to be an awesome Sponsor" page regularly.

Read as much as I can on the internet in general about affiliate marketing.

I have joined "work from home" groups on Linkedin and Google+, thereby gaining more insights into the work from home business.

And then of course, reading posts in SFI's Forum.

I hope this has answered your question adequately

Read, read, read. Communicate. Duplicate. Reward my team. And then turn around and do it again tomorrow.

I think the most important thing to do to grow as a leader is to read and learn as much as possible. There is a lot of information on this site. Then there's the IAHBE site, which is LOADED with information. If I'm looking for information on a specific subject, I look in the TC store to find cheap ebooks. Most of the time I buy them with a TCredit or MRP. There is so much information out there, and there is always more to learn. This is more about becoming knowledgeable for my own business than being a leader, per se. However, to be a successful leader, you have to know your business.

One of the most important aspects of being a leader is communicating to your team. They need to know what is expected of them, and you have to show them how to achieve those goals. You need to lead by example, and communicate any time they need help.

Good communication will lead to duplication. When your team starts duplicating your success, it is good to reward them. Even small incentives are great motivators.

Finally, I think it's important to be persistent in everything we do here. It's important to come here every day, lead by example, and show our team that we are serious about the business we are building together. You can't lead your team unless you are going somewhere.

I ensure a team mail goes to all my affiliates each week - not for VP for me but to ensure that important news I learned in the previous seven days is passed on to my team. Some have been in SFI longer than me as they are second homed CSAs. It is good to be in regular contact with them and my movers to ensure a exchange of ideas in order to grow myself and my team. A good leader learns and passes that learning on to his team but should also be responsive to information from others.

Recruitment is not key to a leader's success in SFI BUT sponsorship definitely is. If a leader grows so does the team. How best to grow? Share thoughts and learning with others (in A2A there are a wealth of talent who have learning to share) because every VP earned means we all benefit from the Executive Pool of VP that helps incentivise every affiliate by rewarding them with VP towards commissions.

In sharing knowledge of SFI and TripleClicks with for example potential ECAs it is possible to recruit more stores to grow more VP for the Executive Pool.
It is possible to share a co-op based on S-Builder so that any PSA and/or CSA in the Team may be rewarded with a PSA to develop their own teams.

So to recap: learn about how to run SFI / TripleClicks as your real business with an online presence as well as meeting people offline for conversations promoting the business and share what you learn with your team and with A2A. This should ensure you grow as your business grows rather than just sit at a computer trying to advertise yet another business opportunity online especially as SFI is much more than that.

This is an interesting question and it appears different people have interpreted it in different ways. Some people have described the process of building your SFI business so that you become a leader. Personally I think the question is referring to the process of developing yourself as a leader - developing your own leadership skills. That is how I will answer.

Firstly to be a good leader one needs to be able to be a good follower and be teachable.
I make a point of making friends via a2a of people I think have become good leaders and asking them for their advice and guidance. I ask them how they achieved their success and see if any of what they did is a fit for me.

I attend leadership training programmes outside of SFI. There are heaps of these around and some are very inexpensive or even free to attend.

Develop your leadership skills in other area of life by taking some active role in the community and contributing to it positively - whether it be becoming a Sunday School teacher, a kids' sports coach, or joining the local school P&C association, or volunteering in any of a million ways. You really do develop as a leader doing these things and learning to communicate with other co-workers/parents etc.

You could also do a course in public speaking such as a Dale Carnegie or join Lions Club or Rotary or something similar, which can also help develop leadership skills.

And always remain open to learning from books - read, read and read some more. There is an absolute abundance of books written on leadership and I have loads of them in my personal library. Do a search on TripleClicks and you will find hundreds there too. The investment in these is immeasurable.

And finally, if you are serious about leading, then begin leading. People will begin to follow you as you learn how to lead. Communicate with people whenever you can. If someone sends you a friend request, accept it. If someone asks for your advice give it and give it ungrudgingly, but with a willing heart. And of course, it goes without saying, be a leader to your own team of PSAs and CSAs by writing to them every week and offering them any help you can.

I highly recommend you do all of the above if you really want to become a successful team leader in SFI.

To grow to be a leader or any business,the first thing needed is planning..Then we need finance.. So we have to make sure that we get enough money to invest in SFI..But when we think practically, its difficult to spend all my money one earns at SFI alone...

So i planned and opened an ECA store.. Now i earn enough that i can use that money to develop in SFI..Thus i use SFI to develop my position at SFI..I keep my income from my regular job for my other needs..

Once financial problem is solved,we need a team to be a leader..There is whole bunch of opportunities open for us because the major problem (finance) is solved..We can join in co-ops or buy packages of PSAs from ECAs here or post pay per click ads or make our own website or pretty much anything to develop our team strength..

Once we get a team, we need to encourage them by offering gift certificates or t-credits so that they feel secure that someone is taking care of us..Thus they will start working and you will be a good leader..

Repeat the above steps every month and the team grows bigger and bigger every month...
I hope this answer helps...

Hi there my fellow affiliates,

This is the question that I had in mind. To answer your question, I want to let everyone know first and foremost that nothing comes fast and easy. You have to continue to focus and work hard everyday for you to see the reward in the end.

With that being said; As a SFI Leader, I always make sure that my teams knows what I have been doing in order to grow our business. I also make sure that they totally understand the process of growing your business with SFI.

Nothing will compare you to be the best leader in your Team if you continue to communicate. Communication is the Key to all Success. I know that everyone is doing that and some don't really pay-attention or reply but for those who do, then your Leadership is important to them so you have to continue to show your team that you are not only doing your best but you are working extra hard and out of the ordinary to succeed.

Remember, As a Leader; if you become Successful at what you do for your business, Everyone else around you will look up to you and would want to strive the same way you did so they too can become Successful.

I hope everyone understands that it takes a lot of energy, hard work, huge efforts & doing things out of your way so that you can become on top of the Leader Board.
Just remember, Nothing happens overnight, you have to continue to work hard at it.

Thanks and I hope this helps
