When you talk to someone, tell them it's not about who they know but how they work.
The world is on line, and it's a time we can meet more people in one day on line then net working one on one at conventions.

Since Being with SFI in 14 days I have made 400 new friends we call them A2A Members. These New Friends will give me support and answers to questions I have and teach me what they know.

My new ASA friends have given me a list of Classifieds around the world to post

Good question.

It is true that SFI is people's business. Team building is one of the major income sources in SFI.

If a prospect who says that he is not interested in SFI as he doesn't know many people, you can tell him that to build our business we need both 'Known' as well as 'Unknown' people. He may be knowing very few people in his circle, but it doesn't matter. There are more than 6 billion unknown people all around the world with whom he can do the business.

I would tell them it is not about the number of people they know because SFI has made it easy to acquire downlines and build a team in various ways:

1. Winning PSAs and CSAs at PriceBenders
2. If financially able, buy PSAs
3. PSAs could be reassigned to them by a sponsor
4. Win CSA’s from the Daily Grand competition
5. Qualify as EA and get free CSAs

I would also encourage them to read: https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/Marketing/StandardSponsoringMethods.

You tell them they don't have to know very many people. That isn't an issue because people that are actually looking for a real opportunity or business of their own will be happy to take your business card or really take a look at your recruiting site. If they say they aren't interested, ask them to take your card or view your site later if they change their mind. There are millions of people looking for a better and more exciting way to support them and their families. I understand if you really

Even if they know just one person, that person knows more, and those people know more, etc... so knowing just one person can turn into a huge amount of people.

You don't have to know a lot of people to succeed with SFI.

If they know only 5 people, they can build a huge downline. Those 5 people can multiply into thousands. Tell your prospects that internet marketing takes your two hands and turns them into 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, and beyond. It's like having a clone of yourself.

There are many ways to find Affiliates at SFI. I am disabled and run my business from a tablet on my couch. I cannot go out and prospect, so I buy sign ups from various venders at TripleClicks. I also have gotten prospects from leaving gift cards with waiters and other service personnel. Sometimes, I am even able to recruit someone in the waiting room at my doctors, just by striking up a friendly conversation.
SFI gives us many free advertising tools like banners and text ads, e-cards and

If facing prospects, who are unsure about joining a business opportunity like SFI, I would ask them first, what made them inquire about the SFI opportunity. What’s their motivation? There are a lot of business opportunities offered nowadays especially in the home based business category. Once I know their motivation, I can properly assess how I will answer each one of them. Each prospect differs from one another in terms of what is behind in looking for a business opportunity. Some of them may

I say to those persons that they need not fear that as an issue because the history of SFI and other internet related business have shown that a far greater reach and impact of higher number of persons have been achieved from promotions online and through advertising internet sites. In effect the millions of potential customers that are internet users sees such advertisements and invariably some respond positively taking up the offer.

This is happens because just like me who was just searching

I would tell them that they do not need alot of friends to join SFI.

If they feel that they will not have enough persons to refer SFI to I can let them know that they can get Personally Sponsored Affiliates and Co-Sponsored Affiliates (PSAs & CSAs) through our Tripleclicks auctions on a daily basis.

They can also start with just the few they know like friends and family members. If they do not have enough funds to bid in the Tripleclicks auctions I also inform them that

I'd say that you have yet to meet the individuals that will carry you to success, that close family and freinds don't make the best business partners.

I'd say it's easier to find strangers who will join than to convince those you know.

I'd say it's to your advantage not knowing too many people, because you will find ways of getting to know thousands.I'd then suggest a few examples of how to find the right type of person.

You see your success is dependant on finding
