First, I look into the genealogy report to see the progress of each affiliate on versa points, last date of login and other useful information that you may need to analyse to communicate with the affiliates. Send team mail or individual email to remind them to take actions. Give credit to those who are progressing. If they are online, you can chat with them or leave personal messages. Secondly, invite them to ask questions. Thirdly, be friendly in your approach. No pushing but need to make a choice

New Affiliates are not very clued with marketing if it is their first time with sales and marketing strategies.The SFI basics and Launchpad offered is self explanatory but you got to encourage them and remind them to go over the Do List and get their versapoints.
The most simple method is using the PSA and CSA mailer. This information in your email encourages them to read all the information you have e-mailed to them.

How important you word your message is vital because all they need

This is a good question. It's been hard for me to converse with anyone. I always send out emails to my team on a regular basis. I assume and hope they are reading the emails. I tell them if they need help or have questions, please email me. I let them know that I'm always here to help any way I can, but they must communicate with me. I have had a couple responses...which is good! I normally get a higher response from affiliates when I see that they are online. I ask how are they doing which they

You can have your affiliates converse with you regularly by initiating the conversation first. Send them encouraging words and tips on how to succeed in this home business endeavor. Tell them that you are always available to help them if they will need you and better still encourage them to reach a level of accomplishment, say EA status,BTL status or higher and reward them with TCredits. Email them regularly, at least every three days and always review their VP ledgers so that you can monitor their

Stay in touch with your affiliates regularly. Try to engage them, by convincing them about the SFI business and the success they can achieve from joining and by logging into their account daily. Point them in the right direction about new brand products they can also have, while getting those versapoints to move forward with their status. Let them know in the beginning, this is not a get rich quick scheme, and to engage themselves daily to improve their rank towards becoming a Team Leader! The higher

That is a tough question to answer.

You can't make anyone do anything they don't want to. All you can do is try to keep in touch with them. Try personal email asking about how they are doing, maybe ask about their family, and fun things about the area they live in. Show an interest in them for more than just the business end of things. Sometimes people will warm up to you and get more interested if you try to be a friend and not just a business associate. Once you have them chatting

It is very good to get your affiliates to converse with you regularly even though i must admit that it can be a difficult task.

Send out your weekly team-mail.
Visit your genealogy as often as you can during the day to see if they are online and you can try contact them then.
View your Movers tab and offer commendation for there efforts so that they can feel your presence.
Check there VP Ledger regularly and offer suggestion as you see fit.
Try contacting them through

I think the best way to get them actively communicating with you is to use social networks particularly facebook chat. In my case I send messages to their inbox which is more liable to reading than mails. Most new affiliates are still getting a hang of SFI so it will be good to use IM especially for those who use mobiles.
Personally, I got very much interested in SFI with my sponsor using facebook chat.

Much said, you should contactthem where you know they are more often on the internet(skype,facebook,WhatsApp,YahooMessenger,G+,etc).

This is an interesting question.
I have since realized that it one cannot get an affiliates to do anything unless they desire it themselves. But all the same sending motivational messages and posting on your leadership page might influence one or two to respond and engage in communication with you.
Some affiliates hold regular jobs and have hectic schedules with very little time for their homepage; hence every time they get an opportunity they tend to want to focus on their daily actions

To get affiliates engaged and conversing regularly with you, the following are important
1 Use your weekly group mailer to send out motivational and positive affirmation words that will encourage them to get closer and learn from you.
for example

I am a beautiful diamond in the rough utilizing the ups and downs of life to chisel myself into a brilliant show piece.

2 Been new in the business, you encourage them to accept change by using the following words
