Give them a Triple Clicks gift card and get them interested in the products and the penny auctions first, then follow-up with them about how they used the gift card and how they liked it. Then you can share with them about the business side and how you enjoy having your own business and making your own hours. Give them information gradually , less is more. If you talk too much you can talk them out of it. Then even if they don’t join the business you still have them for a customer.

Well,this can be tricky,but it doesn't mean that cannot be done!
First of all,you need to explain to them how unique SFI is.All of the advantages,about being an affiliate and about TripleClicks.

Be honest,do not confuse them,just state the facts.One very important thing which you have to remember is,that in most of the cases,you will not receive immediate answer.Give them space,let them think about the opportunity which you offer (although you have to make a follow up)

And don't forget that persistence pays off!If they are not interested-this isn't end of the world!Just move on until you find the right people.Very important- perseverance must become your strength!Learn the basics,apply them,and very soon you will see sign ups,from both warm and cold markets.

Irrespective of the fact whether you have approached your Markets with another opportunity or not my views are as follows.

For Cold Market:

As for as Cold Market is concerned, start warming up the market when you are out talking to people or sending emails to people you do not know personally. It’s not as difficult as you think. Keep things light, an above all, keep it conversational. Easy right?

Okay, now we are onto something! You don’t have to give out a lot of information, but just give them enough information by telling them that your company is doing some expanding in the area. Who isn’t looking for more opportunity right now? Everyone, of course !! Ask them this; “If you could do something right now to make extra money and it didn’t interfere with what you are doing now, would you be interested?” Not that many folks are going to tell you no, but you won’t know if you don’t ask. How do you know what they will say if you don’t ask? That is the whole point! This is how a cold prospect can become so warm!

Warm Market:

Prospecting for warm marketing is relatively easy, as they already know you.
Many network marketers cower in fear when they are being tasked to prospect their warm market. Warm market prospecting is the fastest and best way to build your business – provided it is done correctly. We all know that the network marketing is build upon relationship and trust. So, who trust and have relationship with you; of course your friends, family and relatives. The first thing is to prospect them.
You may be thinking that you just started this business and have no income to show them. Will they believe me? I don’t want to be seen as a pushy sales people. And many others negative stuff that they talk themselves out of it. All the same you approach each and every one.
The truth behind this is you must go forth to tell your friends, family and relatives that you started your own network marketing business. Don’t get attached to the outcome and you will find it fun and easier to do when you go for warm market prospecting.

Hello,

Re-approaching both your warm and cold markets about SFI, when you have already approached them previously with another opportunity before joining SFI shouldn't be a big problem especially when the first program you told them about went very well.

It should be a big boost if the previous programs you introduced them to went on to become profitable. There is going to be a cold attitude toward SFI if the previous introduced programs went bad.

Do not fret too much if you had introduced bad programs to them previously because SFI is not just one of those programs. It is here to stay! Take a look at the track records. Over one million affiliates with thousands coming in daily. Over 75,000 products, over 3,500 ECA with more joining daily, over 100,000 Facebook likes, over 90,000 twitter followers....I could go on and on.

Here is what you should do which i believe would help you:

1. Work the system and become an authority in it by becoming a team leader, TL.

2. Gently tell them about about your new program which is SFI. Never be forceful here.

3. Apologize for the past mistakes concerning your previous introduced programs.

4. Be sincere to them while telling them about your new program, SFI.

5. Let them know that SFI is not a ''get rich quick'' program like your previous
programs were.

6. Let them know that it is a free to join program with no strings attached, no
upfront payments or any obligation whatsoever.

7. Tell and let them know that you can mentor them and that there are no shortage of
mentors and great team leaders who are always ready to assist.

8. Tell them about our awesome Forum here.

9. Last but not the least, offer them the popular $12.00 TripleClicks gift card
which is a great way to convince people knowing fully well that everyone loves
free stuff.

SFI is a program with history. The track records are there for anyone to see. Do not be afraid to re-approach your warm and cold market. Tell them about your new discovery which is SFI. It does not matter if you have approached them previously with a program that went stale. SFI is here to stay.

Thank you for your time.

This is tricky if you've been in multiple business ventures, especially if they haven't proven successful. You will already have gotten yourself a reputation and the response is likely to be, "Oh no, not another scam. You're always getting scammed."
Or words to those effects. I am in this position myself, having tried Amway, Mannatech, Nuways and a whole host of other things.

I have been very cautious about SFI because I know what their response is likely to be. I suggest keeping reasonably quiet and low-key about SFI for a while until you are beginning to make some money. Don't be pushy to tell them all about it, but gradually feed them small pieces of information as the opportunity presents itself. A great opportunity is there when you have won something really good for a phenomenal bargain on Pricebenders. When you can show a mobile phone or Ipod or something that they would like themselves and say you got it for $4 or some crazy price playing Pricebenders auctions at your TripleClicks store, they will take notice and show interest. Bit by bit as they see your enthusiasm they will begin to ask you questions and then you can lay the whole thing out before them. Don't go beyond what they're asking unless they keep asking for more.

Also if you find a product in TripleClicks that you know is of particular interest to one of these people, just pop them a short email telling him briefly what you found. Ask if he's interested in having a look at it and would he like you to send him the link. Give him the chance to say "yes, please". If you just send the link without being invited, he'll probably just delete the email without even getting back to you about it.

I think this low-key strategy is best in these situations when people have been turned off by previous opportunities. I can see my family gradually becoming interested at last.

I just tell them the truth: When I joined SFI, we didn't have the product line or features that we do now, so other opportunities came along that seemed more exciting, or more fun, or had more potential to make money.

But I was dead wrong.

I have been making money in SFI every single month for twelve years, and I wish I had spent even half the time, energy and money on SFI all these years that I have spent on other programs, including the one I probably pitched to them! I will never know for sure, but had I focused on SFI, I would probably have that six figure residual income I have been trying to find all these years. Instead I have spent thousands of dollars on autoships of products I don't need, and "services" that weren't even real.

SFI gives you multiple websites for free, incredible training for free, you have access to the company president and plenty of upline leaders and other helpful fellow affiliates through the forum and Ask SC. International affiliates can get TCurrency in their own countries to buy any TripleClicks product. You can win great prizes and build your business with Pricebenders auctions.

For $29 I can have IAHBE or 100 TCredits! For the $200 a month and more that I have poured down the rat hole in other programs, I can have a standing order for 200 TCredits and 200 personally sponsored affiliates from a coop. And I don't have to hassle friends and family. What's not to like?

SFI is in over 200 countries and is reasonably priced. How is this not a no-brainer?

I use a marketing approach called Attraction Marketing. I do not chase leads. I attract potential business partners to myself through relationships.

Your warm market already has a relationship to you. Is it one whereby they respect and value your opinions? Then it should be easy to "share" a good program you have found. If they are used to you chasing one program after another, then you will need to wait until you have built an income from your cold market.

Approaching a cold market can be done through Facebook Marketing (You need training to do this properly or be banned), blogging about home business or internet shopping deals. You can post classified ads (learn about effective copy writing).

Handing out gift cards is great for both cold and warm markets since everyone wants something for free. Always when marketing, provide value without the expectation of return and people will be attracted to you.

Since people prefer to do business with someone they know, like and trust, always be friendly and helpful. Let them tell you what they desire and you provide the answer- SFI!

From your question i see you are into marketing, you have so many leads and you want them to partake in SFI without them loosing interest. Well i will say do it with wisdom.

First of all try and find out how they are doing with previous deals you have made them to join or purchase through you. Now if they are doing well you will have almost no problem telling them about SFI and please do not push it let them be they one to do so, let them show interest or you will lost them.

Then for those who are not doing well, to get them to join you at SFI is to prove through your self that SFI truly works. Either through your purchases at TripleClick stor or may be showing them prices you won through pricebender auctions.

Seeing this will make them ask you questions about SFI without you even having to meet them.

Also you can do this by getting your TripleClicks MasterCard it act as a great tool to promoting SFI to your warm and cold markets.

In all just be a walking prove of SFI and you don't need to worry so much about re-approaching both your warm and cold markets, people tend to believe more in what they can see then just using words to explain. A picture says a thousand words.

Dear Lori,

Since you are into marketing, you should not be shy about approaching your prospects/markets with new opportunities every time you find one.

However, the "lead by example" principle applies here perfectly.

If you have approached and recruited people to any previous opprotunity, if those people did what was expected of them and have been successful - you have no problem. They already know that what you offer works for them, and they WILL follow you.

Their reasoning may be like this: "Lori sponsored me into this program and it works, so the next one should also work for me. Let's do it!"

If, however, they are disappointed with the results, especially if the participation is paid, they won't even listen to you, pretending that they do, of course.

Therefore, I'd first do a bit of a research to find out how your affiliates in other opportuniites/programs are doing and base your decision on the scale of their success.
The more successful they have been, the more likely they'll follow you again.

Additionally, you won't have to pitch them. You'll be able to ask them straight ahead if they are interested in joining another program with you. Then you just present the program, the benefits, and most probably your downline starts growing quicker than you could expect.

I think that if you have prviously approached friends and family with other business opportunities that werent successful, then it would be a good idea to wait until you have shown some progress in SFI. if your are having fun and seeing a reasonable amount of success en SFI your family and friends will notice and possible inquire as to what you are doing , also those shre buttons that they give you to put on social sites when you win or accomplish something can be used as an indirect way to let your friends and family see that you are gaining some momentum and success in the business. and also never approach anyone like they are doing you a favor you let them know that you are doing them a great favor by sharing with them a great opportunity. hope this helps
