The best thing you can do in order to engage with your affiliates is to continously keep in contact with them every once in a while or more. Use your PSA mailer, CSA Mailer, and Team Letters as well. Have your "Online Status" as available and turn your "Chat Alarm" on in order to be able to answer any questions or other things that your affiliates might have.

In order to turn your "Chat Alarm" on, be sure to point your mouse to the "My Account" Tab,

What's important at comunication with affiliates is AVAILABILITY.

You have to be always available for them,
and if you are not, you should get back to them as soon as posible.
That would create an image that aou are there all the time,
and that you whach over them all the time.

Of course, it's impossible to be there 24 hours a day,
but if you remain in contact regulary, they will know to apreciate it.

Second thing you should do is to wach their

The golden rule applies here as it does in most things.
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
If you want people to engage and converse with you, then do it with them first.

Ask them how they're doing and if they need help. They may try to go it alone for a while, thinking that they don't need any help, or maybe they just don't want to bother
you, but if you keep sending them messages and reminding them that helping them helps you too, they may begin to send

Communicate with them consistently. One way is by sending them group support messages. Another way is by looking at their performance in their Daily, Weekly and Monthly Actions, you can point out to each one of them, and how you can help them with their difficulties and challenges.

When you ask: “May I help you?” you are addressing or asking what are their personal challenges. When you reach out to their concerns, you are establishing close relationship with them. The choice of words

How to get affiliates we engage and chatted regularly with us are:

1. Send messages regularly.
Sending messages on a regular basis will encourage the involvement of affiliates actively and dilute the relationship between affiliate with us. Affiliate will respond positively to the message sent. This will create a regular communication with affiliates.

2. Gives tips on a regular basis.
Gives tips on a regular basis will be uplifting affiliates to achieve success. Affiliates

I rarely get a response from my emails or messages, but I have more success by the instant messaging system.
If I'm online and I see that one of my affiliates has a yellow bubble next to them on the genealogy page I always say hi and ask them how they are going and they usually always reply back to me.
I have had fairly inactive affiliates take action after we've talked this way and I've encouraged them personally by making suggestions on what action to take.
This is especially useful

Be an awesome sponsor, always open conversations, bring up topics that you think will help your affiliates. Send regular team mails, or personal mails, with encouragement as SFI is not a get rich quick scheme it takes work, chat with team members when they are on line. Send TCredits as encouragement to try out biding on TripleClicks,

Give your affiliates advice, tell them how you started out, maybe how long it took you to get were you are. How SFI has worked for you.

This is a rather good question.
Engaging affiliates is something really important here, following their work and contacting them regularly. From my experience, or better said from things I've done here, creating a proper communication and trust relationship, on a regular daily or weekly basis, is highly important.

When I say on a daily basis, this isn't something that you have to do and "spam" your affiliates. Giving them a quick info on how they progress and correcting

How do you get your affiliates engaged and conversing regularly with you?

First thing I know that I need to do for my affiliates is to continue to communicate with them. No matter what happens, whether if they respond to you or not, you still have to keep sending them message through emails here or your personal emails.

You can not give up on them just because they did not respond to you 2 or 3 emails that you have sent. You have got to communicate no matter what and you'll
