All affiliates will first need to understand and know that SFI business is not a get rich quick scheme like many other online programs out there. Those individuals who join SFI hoping to get rich quickly would be highly disappointed. To achieve success in the SFI business, it requires a combination of goals, desire, persistence, patience and action.

There are many ways one can utilize to influence affiliates to approach their SFI business realistically. Some of them include:

1. Having goals and plans.
Setting up goals and plans is very crucial in achieving success in any business. Goals help us to make steps forward towards accomplishing a certain plan of action. SFI has recognized the importance of having goals, and thus having a goal tab in our SFI back office. There are many goals one can set towards their SFI business which include from the number of affiliates one intends to obtain each month to the of amount sales one intends to achieve via their Tripleclicks store.

2. Avoiding procrastination.
As in any business, it is important to avoid and eliminate what is referred to as procrastination. The word procrastination is defined from a dictionary as put off doing something. Any delays of any action almost always result to problems or lost of opportunities. It is therefore extremely important to take action now and not wait until tomorrow to accomplish tasks that can be done today. It is crucial to take action towards performing all possible activities relating to building up one’s SFI business.

3. Viewing SFI as a real business.
For those who don’t understand the power of network marketing will never take SFI seriously, thus not view it as serious business. Some people are so much accustomed to the brick and mortar business concept and not able to see other opportunities out there such as SFI. As we are aware the cost of running a brick and mortar business is extremely high, let alone the high rate of failures. With SFI one can become an ECA and promote and sell their products for free without having a running cost of a physical store. The success of SFI business depends entirely upon the individual and the cost of failure is tiny compared to a traditional brick and mortar business.

4. Viewing PSAs as your business partners.
All network marketing companies including SFI rely on the system of duplication. This is the business concept and nature behind the industry. With duplication one acquires PSAs, and those same PSAs acquire their own PSAs and so forth, and thus building a huge downline team of affiliates. Therefore it is critical to provide guidance and assistance as well as establishing good communications with all PSAs.

5. Avoiding too much of high expectations.
For those who don’t have much experience in the network marketing industry, there is a tendency of having too much of high expectations and assumptions of quickest income possible in the shortest period of time. Unfortunately this type of thinking results to many affiliates being inactive or quitting with in weeks or months after joining SFI. We have to treat SFI like any other legitimate business that takes time to build. With enough persistence and desire to succeed with SFI one can build a 6 figure monthly residual income within a few years.

SFI is no different from any other form of business that involves the trade of goods/services to consumers. Due to so many benefits, one should therefore be in a position to convince affiliates advantages of approaching their SFI business realistically.

Hi,
first of all - you need to set up their mind for working from the beginning.

What do I mean by this?
Start from your ad - don't offer everything for FREE - they will be disappointed if they see that they need to invest something - not much, but they expect everything will be free - and you will attract BROKE people.

Make sure your ad is honest, don't promise a lot of money, don't even write phrases such as "make 500$ a week or a month" - because after first month they will earn only few bucks - you know, I know it... Be realistic in your ad - then you will get great workers, offer them support and good advice.

For example,
If you write ad like this:

Join my team and become successful online marketer in just few months - you'll get all support and training lessions for free. Make some changes in your life - and start earning online!

I think if someone joins under this ad - you'll get good PSA who is willing to work online for a long time - and learn at the same time.

So, change your ad - make it interesting and unique - AND VERY HONEST.

You'll see your results will be better.
Wish you all the best in New Year,
Regards.

Well, I guess there are people who join SFI only because they expect to get rich over night, or maybe just out of curiosity. There are several things we can do to make clear this is a real business.

To start with, you can point it out in your ads that this is not a get rich quick scheme, so that those looking to get rich in a day or two won't even try to register.

Secondly, when you make the first contact with a new affiliate, you should make it clear from the start that this business takes time and patience to achieve your goals, that you actually need to work hard, at least a couple of hours a day, and that it involves a lot of reading and learning, advertising, communication, thinking, planning. Some of my affiliates even asked me right after their registration if I have already earned anything, and I tell them the truth - this is my second month and I have earned just a tiny bit, but I don't expect to earn much in the first 6 months. I explain to them that they will not earn anything unless they put time and effort into building their teams. Some of them might give up right after that, but I don't consider it a waste because only serious workers are what I really need in my team.

If they choose to try anyway, continue setting an example for them. They'll look up to you for guidance and orientation, and if they see that YOU are serious and hard-working, chances are that they will follow that path. Send regular team mails with news which confirm that your efforts were not in vain and you are climbing up the ladder slowly but constantly.

I hope that this answer will help you.

Begin right in your welcome letter to your new affiliates. Tell them to expect it to take a few months to get the framework of your team formed and a few years before it is producing a steady and solid residual income. But in the meantime they will see an agreeable progress including some income develop before that time.

Assure them that this is a tried and true business and that there is no need for them to reinvent the wheel, In fact it is better to study what the up line is doing and to duplicate what they do.

Tell them this is their business and while duplicating what you are doing, there is still much room for them to brand it as their own, become recognized.

As they come to the end of the first month, recognize what they have done and tell them the importance of that. If they did not make EA, then what did they do? Did they finish the LaunchPad? The Set Ups like whitelisting, profile and photo? Did they log in Daily and form a valuable habit? Did they begin to participate in the Forum or ASK SC? If they are active at the end of the month, they have done something important.

Warn them about the small commission for the first month if they bought or sold nothing. Explain that businesses need an exchange of real money to be able to produce real commissions. Why do we even have a tiny commission? Because it show the new affiliate how it will work when they earn some real money. At this time aim them towards BTL. That's where the bigger money begins. Why stall out at EA2 when the excitement is so close?

I would inform them that this is their new business venture, where it all depends on them to work at it and make it grow.
Dedication and persistence are required.
Setting goals will help, but for a new beginner, they are overwhelmed, like I was with all the data, learning, training, marketing tools, may become too much!
This is the point that one needs the guidance of his/her Sponsor and or Co-Sponsor.
Read the Basics, follow the introductory video.
Follow your LaunchPad lessons, go through each lesson, let it become a reality in your business.
We are so privileged to have all this free training material at hand, it is now up to us to strive to make it succeed.
For those who are looking for a get rich scheme, they will soon not show any interest as this is not what they are looking for, however, we can guide them to earn an extra income by advertising for SFIPPA, and earn commissions.
When you're starting a new business, you advertise your business, you put up big posters outside your new shop that you're opening. You put up posters of your opening specials to draw customers.
Do the same for your SFI and TripleClicks Business. Advertise, advertise, advertise!

Hello Ester Maupa!

You have asked a very sensible question. By reading the Ad that "Join SFI free and start earning fast" many new members get the wrong notion that they can start earning fast just by joining SFI free. I do not mean that you cannot start earning free, but it may take considerable time before you really make some head way towards earning. Therefore approach the by guiding them correctly as follows:

1. On joining after the welcome letter, tell them that they have joined a real earning opprtunity which is not a "Get rich quick business". Its like any other 'Brick & Tar'
business that requires time to set up. Needs investment, and advertising on a regular base. Basically they need to follow three thing religeously:

(a) Go to page "Start" and learn how to get stated their SFI business in a correct way. SFI has provided everything one needs to know in the pages "START, SFI BASICS & LAUNCH PAD" sections.

(b) Secondly, they need to read "SFI Basics" go get a clear picture of all that is required to be done by an SFI affiliate.

(c) Go through 30 day Learning Plan the "Launch Pad". They need to read each chapter very carefully & take notes. The launch pad is not just meant for scoring fast points.Although, if you can register everything in your mind you can read them all in one or two days.

It must be emphasized that on each these three pages all the relevant links need to be opened separately and studied as a new subject. All the info can be stored in separate folders or word documents for repeated study in your spare time. One can even take out prints to study while waiting or traveling in a a bus, train etc.

Finally warn them as Gery Carson himself has claimed, "SFI takes a minimum of 3 years to earn a substantial
income". It all depends upon the laziness/smartness of the individual SFI members to delay or boost their business and income from it.

Hope it helps

SFI is truly a real business. When an affiliate joins the Company he needs to know that this is not a get rich quick scheme. It is a real opportunity to build great online business. The only thing he needs to do is ensure you make him be comfortable with what he is doing.
Many affiliates give up when they feel that they are not getting money from sfi. As a sponsor who wants to make your team grow uplift the lowly by helping them grow there business. Have a personal touch with at least 5 affiliates and let them know that you are willing to help them build there business in any means
Give them free leads (PSAs) not necessarily reassignment but fresh affiliates who are signing in especially if you have a great mailing list. Let them join and keep on building there business.
Once you have given the direction to the baby and he is automatically a team leader, now send him or her a team mail explaining that he should do the same to atleast 5 people below him
Honestly when he realizes that sfi has the capacity to make him wealthy like that, that is how he will become serious and start making real income from home.

I do not advocate for standing orders unless the affiliates fully understand that standing order wont give him money but it will take away money from him or her

If you want your affiliate to put a standing order, let him know why he is putting one, let him understand, 1500 POINTS he will get from the order will help him qualify for monthly earnings if he has made any and will also help him concentrate on his business
We as sponsors feel good when our downline place standing orders but what is the need of someone placing a standing order and after a month he stops
So when you get one affiliate who places one maximize the opportunity, assign him leads and let him fully see the potential of SFI because that is a person who will make for you lifetime income.
I wish you all the best but remember we lead by example so whatever you are preaching practice it

Hello,

That's a good question. The best way to get them to approach their business is to explain some of the benefits they get after they joined this SFI site. Most people do come here to SFI thinking that joining will automatically make them rich, but uh-uh. It doesn't work that way. If they think that, then they are automatically setting themselves up for a brutal defeat.

Explain to them and let them know upfront that "This is NOT a quick get rich scheme and that they will succeed with hard work, lots of patience, and determination." After explaining that to them, that begins the test as to whether or not they will stay. REAL members stay and work through learning about this business. The ones who are expecting to get rich quick are not the serious people who are truly focused about their future.

Be as warm welcoming as you can be with them in your SFI welcome letters. Let them know that you will be available at the times you can be there for them to help them. Let them know that as they continue to pursue in this business, that they will succeed even more and that their income will continue to grow more too.

In the coming months as you continue to help them, they will eventually grow to love this business more and more and trust that SFI is a legitimate REAL business.

I hope I shed some light on this good question. You learn, you earn. You work hard, you play harder! Have a great day.

Hello,

It is a good question. Every affiliate might have seen the advertisement that “Real internet income. Join SFI free and earn fast”. Therefore, most of the affiliates might have joined SFI with the intention that they can earn money fast without any investment and with less effort.

No genuine business works well without any investment. This is also known to all affiliates and they are also ready to invest small money into SFI business provided they are assured of getting reasonable income.

Therefore, your approach should be like this:

In your welcome letter to your affiliate explain the ways to become EA and EA2 without any investment. You can also explain the free online methods to make reasonable signups as early as possible and also extent all the needed supports. Make them to understand SFI business thoroughly by doing TODO list activities daily, studying SFI basics and Launch pad lessons, visiting Forums, reading ASK SC questions and answers, tips, alerts, news etc. Ask them to participate in all contests and also ensure that they become E365 Finalists.

Once they become EA and are marching towards EA2, explain them that SFI is a real internet income opportunity and there are many income plan available by which they can earn income. However, a small investment is needed during the initial months to strengthen their foundation at SFI. With your experience and from the success stories, you can explain the best plan of investment for them too.

This will definitely make your affiliates to understand the realty of SFI business.

Good luck and all the best my friends

Firstly affiliates need to be explained to that SFI is a business that in assured time stops feeling like a business but an exiciting game of fun.
Then they must be directed to specific SFI links that clearly stipulates that this is a business and not a get rich quick scheme such as the lesson on day 11 of the Launchpad (https://www.sfimg.com/LaunchPad/Day11) where there are even practical examples of people who have managed to strike smashing success with 6 figure incomes having trodden the same paths we are treading. Stories of other rich people who had to go through the hard grind of life before striking it rich can be summoned and they abound all over the internet.

But people are not ready to go with a business that seemingly will take some time to generate high incomes. This is where the differences of SFI from other traditional businesses need to be emphasised, such as:

1. You can keep making money and increasing your income levels without ever spending money.
2. You only need minutes per day on SFI and use the rest of your day for other activities of your life.
3. Of course you will progress faster if you spend money on SFI; but the expense can never compare to the huge start up cost and overheads for a traditional business while assuring you of increasing profits every month.
4. The tasks and other activities on SFI soon become fun to carry out and cause you to instinctively make SFI the very first site you will check out each morning you open your computer.

5. There is the beauty of Trippleclicks which offers SFI members personal benefits such as personal fulfillment upon buying a needed products while accumulating versapoints and enhancing their income levels at he same time.

Week in week out, we are all buying a number of useful things for our homes, our kids and loved ones from shopping malls and other places.

Have you thought of how quickly you would advance in SFI if you simply bought all you wanted from TRIPPLECLICKS? Think of electrical appliances, cell phones, wedding rings, kitchen utensils, watches, laptops and just all these things we need from day to day. I am not saying you must under what circumstances spend on Trippleclicks; rather I am saying WHENEVER YOU NEED TO BUY SOMETHING, check it out on Trippleclicks before you venture elsewhere. After all, Tripleclicks offers very competitive prices and in many cases products are shipped free. For example, I recently lost my cell phone and I really needed a replacement because I cannot do without a phone. I checked for cellphones on Trippleclicks and found a whole range of phones of different makes and sizes from the cheapest types to the elegant upmarket ones. I managed to order a brand new Nokia Lumia which automatically gave me 1,600 versapoints at a price 3 times below the best prices in my country. Add that to my other points and I have nearly 5,000 versa points for December!

Rememebr:

1 There over 100,000 products on trippleclicks.

2. You instantly get a lot of versapoints that will make your position in SFI quite admirable.

3. Trippleclicks promotes high quality products at lower prices than we may get elsewhere.

4. It is not mandatory for you to buy from Trippleclicks. No one will penalise you if you don't buy anything. It's just an online store that you are only encouraged to buy from as a matter of fulfilling your very need.

The foregoing is my honest answer which I feel must turn any reluctant person over to SFI
