Overhead. employees. licensing. RESIDUAL income

It is generally much cheaper to be an affiliate, and your are building a lifetime. Residual income is an amazing thing!

I have formed LLC's, S-corporations, and sole proprietor's in the past, and it takes much longer to get everything up and running, as well as much higher starting costs.

The hours you spend working as an affiliate are maybe a third of a traditional business, and that is if you are really putting the effort in!

The difference between SFI and a regular business you don't have to have alot of money to start. You could start with as little as $22.00 dollars for a S-Builder to start up.

You don't have to get all dressed up for the public if you don't want to.

You don't have to go to the bank to make a loan for your business if you don't have money.

You don't have to find something to sell SFI have alot of stuff to offer.

This is why I think SFI is better!!!!!!

I used to own a corner store in a college town. It was an established, though declining, business when we bought t or $10,000. We refurbished it for $2,000 and restocked it for $8,000. We worked daily from 6am to 9pm. (I also had another job to pay our household bills.) We could not afford help, so it was just me and my husband. It was almost a year later that we made our first profit of $200. We thoroughly enjoyed the business and the personal relationships we built with the customers and area vendors. It was fun - all consuming, exhausting fun!

I started SFI three months ago for free, and invest $100/month on advertising and supplies. I work 15 - 25 hours a week, whatever part of the day is most convenient for me. I have not yet made a profit, but I have gotten some compensation every month. I thoroughly enjoy he relationships I am building with my team and a2a friends. AND IT'S FUN!

Both businesses inspired and excited me, but SFI gives me that same feeling without causing me to be exhausted and deeply in debt. I like that better!!!

That honestly is a very valid question. And I asked myself the same question before I signed up for SFI. And this is what I realized.

1. STARTING CAPITAL

All traditional businesses need a starting capital. Depending upon what kind of a business you are planning to get into, this number will vary but it will definitely be there.
With SFI, you need ZERO starting capital. Which basically means that you do not need to invest any money.

2. INVENTORY

Whenever you start a traditional business, you will need to maintain an inventory of your products. Even if you are providing a service, you will still have to maintain an inventory of consumables that you will need for providing that service.
With SFI, the need for an inventory is abolished.

3. TIME

Of course, you will need to invest your time in both the places. But I can assure you, that the amount of time that you invest in SFI and that you do in a traditional business is very different. What you can achieve at SFI in just a couple of hours, you can probably never achieve that in twice the amount in a traditional business. So, you make your moeny with SFI and still have time to enjoy the other pleasures that life has to offer you.

4. FLEXIBLE WORKING HOURS

In a traditional business, you are bound by the rising and the setting sun. There are only a limited time frame within which you can operate. And these working hours will pretty much be fixed.
With SFI, you can choose when you want to work. Your timings and your income are not controlled by the timings in your area.

5. GLOBAL REACH

With a traditional business, you can only market your products within your city, state or country (if and when you make it that big).
With SFI, you start off marketing your business to the entire world. And at no cost at all. You could be sitting in the remotest town of the world and selling your stuff to people sitting across the globe.

6. RECESSION BUFFER

A common problem with traditional business is that it suffers every time there is a recession in the country of its operation.
However, SFI is almost recession free. It is recession free unless the whole world is going through an economic recession which hasn't happened in a very long time. This is because your market is not limited to your country. It is global.

7. LONG TERM INCOME

When you are operating a traditional business, you only make money as long as you work. Once you stop working, your income stops as well.
And this is the most beautiful part of the SFI business. It earns for you while you sleep. You could probably be on a vacation with your family and still be making money. Because the system is working for you.

8. FREE TRAINING

Every time you want to start a new business, you need to learn about it. IN a traditional business, it is extremely difficult to find someone who will teach you. I know because I have been there.
At SFI, you have an endless stream of training. Starting from the Launchpad Lessons to Upline Support to the Ask SC Forum to the A2A program, the list is endless. Everytime you have a question or a doubt, you have access to an unlimited amount of resources to find your answers.

I'm sure many other affiliates would like to add to this list. And I hope this somewhat answers your question.

Cheers and best of luck.
