Most affiliates agree that the amount of time you put into learning and building your business comes first. Without making this crucial investment your chances of success in any business is handicapped. On line you can lose a lot of money not knowing what to do and where best to invest your capital.

New affiliates should take the time over the first two months reading the material presented in the Basics, Launch Pad Lessons and The Rules of Success. It should become habit to sign in everyday, at about the same time, to work on the tabs listed on the main page. When you think about what these tabs represent these are the same activities you would implement every day in any business you wanted to run as the CEO.

Spending money on products that will help you build your business should only come after you have enough knowledge to determine what you should expect the outcomes to be. I would suggest the IAHBE in the beginning, not just for the VP but for more learning now and after you master the SFI training. Invest the 1.98 for the Wave3 program to help raise interest in your area. When people see something more than several times they recognize it when they see it on line or an email even if they cannot figure out where they saw it before. There is a lot more to learn and by the third month you really have not even been born yet if you’re new to internet marketing. Keep reading as much as possible. Simply put, stay within your budget based on your willingness to sacrifice and take risks. Transfer buying may not be the best option for you if you live far removed from where that item is shipped, the cost of shipping can be expensive depending on the distance. This a good reason to introduce Tripleclicks to merchants in your local area.

There are a lot of eBooks you can read and if you can afford it get one every few days. Then start collecting Tcredits, you need a lot of them to feel confident that you have a chance at winning any of the auctions. You really should give yourself plenty of time to watch and learn about the auctions before you enter one. It’s a good idea to get in the habit of playing “Pick the Price” in the auctions you find interesting and T-Time as many times a day as you can to get the free T-Credits. If you are signing in everyday make sure you enter the Daily Grand. Then start buying Tcredits one at a time until you can afford to invest in T-Credit PACs. If you can afford it by the third month you should begin to focus on building your team. Posting your gateways in traffic exchanges, safe lists and free classifieds is a good start. If you earn EA the first two months by gaining VP from the action activities you will start receiving CSAs automatically. The next logical step is to buy S-Builder co-op shares. You can then use that investment every month to encourage the members of your team though am S-Builder co-op.

Your best investment will always be in your learning and building your experience by putting into practice what have learned. Putting into practice what you learn is as important as learning. Experience is the foundation of understanding. Reading something makes you aware of different concepts and new material. Once you begin to do a thing it becomes knowledge you can use.

All the best to every new affiliate, we welcome you to SFI. See you on the A2A.

The following steps are the best investment for a new affiliate:
All you need do is recruit new affiliates, buy T credit and participate in daily auctions,review your daily to- do- list, buy from tripleclicks stores and encourage others to buy through your link, buy and send gift cards,advertise widely on various social sites like facebook, linkedin etc. If you can, place a standing order at tripleclicks stores. Do these things and success will surely be yours.

My answer;
First, $29.00-$36.00 to guarantee EA2,then $25.00-$30.00 to be a member of your Ad Co-op This to me looks very much like a minimum of $54.00 per month,starting the second month of signing up. Of course this will lead to him or her spending on the auctions,but this can be considered as entertainment money which could earn you some good deals. Simon Le Fort

The new partner should first take time to work at SFI, and the strategy to success. My advice to a new partner is to first register around the 15th of the month and the end of the month to perform tasks from the list, as well as daily and weekly tasks and to achieve a little more than 1,500 securities, and very easy in the next month could achieve more than 1500 HP and thus become EA2. When should it happen.

To me, there is only three things that the new affiliate should be concentrating on.
1.They should do their best to become a Fast Tracker by accumulating 500 Versa Points within the first 24 hours of signing up.
2. They should try, if at all possible, to stay above the green line in the E365 contest.
3. They should log on everyday if at all possible and accumulate the daily Versa Points from the to do list, and claim some of the Versa Points from the Getting Started Actions and Launchpad Lessons. Which if they do will take care of the other important thing they should be concerned with, learning about the business.

In my opinion, the biggest investment a new affiliate should plan on making is time. They should plan on spending at least an hour, maybe more every day learning about the business as well as learning where and how to effectively advertise and track those advertisements.

I just don't see where becoming EA that first month is going to be that advantageous to someone in their first month. The only advantage that I know of is that they will gain a few CSA's. Which, they may or may not know what to do with. Once they feel comfortable with how the SFI system works and how to advertise, then they should start advertising. If they have a little extra money, investment in some of the advertising listed on TripleClicks would be helpful. And, once they have a solid foundation built in their downline (an active member or two) they should start working on building their rank.

I know that this answer will probably not be the most popular one on Ask SC. But, it is probably one of the most honest ones.

My opinion is that new affiliates no need any investments except time. Time is only investment: time to read lessons, learning every day, collect VersaPoints and put all it in practice: publish SFI business in free classified ads, free safelists, traffic exchange, etc.

You not need any money investment because with this effort you can build team od 15 person who became EA and you automatically gain 1500 VP! You achaived and maintenaning your EA status without one penny investement. And you can go on Bronze Lider Status (BTL) with 30 EA persons (3000 VP). And so on, and so on...

If you want to make some stability and safety in your SFI business, you may invest in one Standing Order (SO) and buy 100 TC credits pack for $29 per month. It brings you 1200 VP per month and you can easily achaive 1500 VP with daily actions. And, if all your affiliate members in your network do same thing: buy $29 SO (which is not much and anybody may afford it), you can make a lot of earnings in SFI for a long time - and it is not so difficult to done. It is realy simple and basic things in SFI.

Important is the marketing, advertising and marketing, but if you want to invest it is best that you invest in marketnig and promote their work on the "SFI".

Always watch free solution, use social media primarily for the promotion, and if that is not enough, you can always invest in some advertising, if that is not enough.

Best to you to make a website or blog it slip SFI links and banners, and so it promotes your site!

I THINK,THE MOST IMPORTANT IS MONEY.WORK TO-DO LIST IS NOT ENOUGH TO MAINTAIN YOUR VP.LASTLY,YOU MUST PURCHASE SOME ITEM WITH 1200-1500VP TO ARCHIVE YOUR TARGET.SO,MONEY IS NO.1.I SAY THAT BECAUSE,IF YOU NOT MAINTAIN YOUR EA STATUS,YOU WILL LOOSE MORE BENEFITS.YOU CAN GET PSAs,BUT NOT SURE THEY CAN RUN.SO I SAY...THAT'S IS MONEY.HOPE WE ALL SUCCESS.
