A true and effective sponsor is one who encourages and supports. Unfortunately, some affiliates, new or seasoned, have had the unfortunate experience of not getting responses from these sponsors. It may seem a bit unfair to some because these sponsors stand to benefit from the activities of those who form a part of their downline.

However, affiliates should always remember why they are here....you are not here for your sponsor, you are here to build a solid, successful and profitable business and SFI has provided the path for this. If there is no response from ones sponsor, try your co-sponsor. There is also an extremely active Forum with many experienced leaders there willing and able to answer any questions you may have. A2A is also available for you to build a network of affiliate friends who share ideas among each other.

Let us not forget that the Affiliate Center has loads of information and tips which SFI freely provides to all its affiliates so even though some new affiliates may say it seems confusing and overwhelming, it is important to know that you are never alone.

Great question,

What you can do when a sponsor is non-responsive is;

1. Try your co-sponsor for help
2. Get to forum questions to see if has been asked before.
3. If questions have not been asked submit a ticket.. A
4. Do NOT stop working on your to do list and Launchpad lessons.
5. Ask your a2a friends too, I did.

See my sponsor quit doing his SFI business in February and the co sponsor I had at the time was no help either, good thing happened I had another co-sponsor and he is great, he gives me ideas, anyway I had to look in forum and submit a lot of tickets, I am very happy they were very patient with me during the first few months.

DO NOT Quit Stick with it and you too will get the help you need. We are all here to help.

First,try to contact your sponsor per SFI messaging and email.

If they do not respond within a reasonable period, try again.

If after another reasonable period,they have not responded at least to acknowledge your contact, let your other upline sponsors know.

If you are still unable to get the answers to questions you may have,after checking the FAQs, try asking the support team here at SFI (SFI Corporate) and/ or checking the SFI community postings here where you posted this question.

Please be aware that many serious SFI team Leaders over the years have received complaints from downline members for "too many messages" when trying to give them daily encouragements and help.

In my personal experience, this included some of my now- former downline members whom had asked me for assistance.

This is why my own downline may forget at times that I do still reply to their specific questions or requests when I get to read them.

Every tip anyone should need is waiting somewhere in the vast array of help pages SFI procides for members... but because of the cast array of information, it may take months to read everything enough times to remember every part that wil;l apply to you most successfully.

Here is one other unique tip I offer you with hopes for your success:

Different personality types may experience different results with different methods. Business is an inexact science and every human being in business has similarities and differences from other individuals.

Let's make it clear - did you join SFI for your sponsor's or your own sake?

I can tell you that I joined for my own sake. Yes, I have a great sponsor, and it's great to have one, I agree that it might accelerate your success, but we are all grown-ups here, able to use our heads and find our own solutions and paths to success, if we are determined to do so.

SFI provides incredibly comprehensive training - the Getting Started lessons, the Launchpad, Rules of Success, Ask Gery, Training which covers all topics from sale, sponsoring, to internet income including links to free classifieds, and so much more. There is also your Co-Sponsor who might turn out to be more willing to help. Then there's Forum, a2a communication, other uplines. All you need to do is open a tab every day and read as much as you can. Soon enough, you'll be on your track and won't miss your sponsor anymore.

There are many people here who succeeded without any help from their sponsors, and so can you, I'm sure. But, please, once you become a team leader, don't forget how you felt without your sponsor's help, and do all you can to make an awesome sponsor!

If your sponsor doesn't respond to your requests for help,
You also have cosponsors, and if they don't respond, you
can always find help at the support desk, forum and A2A.

But even beyond all this, anyone who is serious about SFI
and TripleClicks can find all kinds of answers by checking
out the FAQ pages and reading all your launchpad lessons,
or just by pushing all the buttons on your home page and looking
around and reading.

The first time I joined SFI back in the beginning, I had a sponsor
who was already a famous network marketer, and he was so big in
marketing that he had no time for the little guy. So I gave up.
I was such a newbie I couldn't even copy and paste.

This time I thought I knew a lot but I found out I didn't. So I
understand how it might be difficult for someone without a sponsor.

But if a person can login and view their member's page, there is
help right there. All they have to do is click on a link to the forum
or Ask Gery. Gery has made it so easy to get help now, that there is
really no good reason for someone not to get the help they need.

I believe that every one has a reason for joining SFI, and that is to make money.

A sponsor is supposed to be a support to you, encouraging you along the way, as water that waters the plant for it to grow. But you are supposed to be the root, a root that has a firm and solid foundation to stand against any weather. If you have that solid base - a good knowledge of SFI basics (by reading all information), and explore all of SFI's tools, what is stopping you moving forward without your sponsor?. When you start to reap the financial benefits, will you share it with your sponsor?.

It might be frustrated to know that you are not getting any response from your sponsor, but you have THE FORUM, ASK SC and a2a friends who are always ever so willing to share of their knowledge and wisdom to anyone who asks. Then there is SUPPORT to give you answers to your queries too.

Sometimes a co-sponsor can be more help that a sponsor, so there are other avenues that are open for you to seek help when needed, so do not be discouraged by a non-responsive sponsor.

You have to believe in yourself, speak to yourself, encourage yourself, and motivate yourself for success. Be positive and be a PACESETTER. Surround yourself with positive people and be optimistic for a bright future with SFI.

Do your daily, weekly and monthly task, have a standing order for monthly qualification, recruit others and follow the DUPLICATION process. Even though your sponsor is non-responsive, YOU strive to do better by being a great and awesome sponsor to your downline. Work towards achieving your set goals, and you will enjoy the benefits in the future.

Its a good opportunity to prove to yourself that you are strong enough to run this race and be a winner. Looking, waiting, pausing (waiting for a response) might cause someone else to PIP you at the finishing line, so keep moving forward.

I think a hero is an ordinary individual who finds strength to persevere and endure in spite of overwhelming obstacles. YOU can be that HERO, inspite of no support from your sponsor.

Best Wishes.

Very simple:

Read up all the materials available, as SFI has made sure that affiliates do not lack these easily-understandable stuffs.

Relate with your a2a friends. You'll be fortunate to have among them those who are more knowledgeable than you from the point of view of this business.

Get to the Forum, follow up topics for discussion - read the questions and the answers that follows each of them and ask your own questions.

In worse case scenario, raise a ticket at help-desk and ask some questions. You'll be very happy to have your issues resolved even by Gery himself.

Be open-minded, read very well, ask questions and get committed to this thing and I bet my $1000 you're sure to succeed even without your sponsor's assistance.

What to do if sponsor is unresponsive?

Do the same thing you do when your downlines are unresponsive (In fact we have more incidences of that around here), let them be because they are the ones who should be sending you weekly letters not the other way around! Besides you have other uplines, try contacting them, someone is bound to respond.

I for one have an awesome sponsor, he has been very consistent in responding to any question I ask. Even when he does not have the answers he directs me as to where I can find some. But my co-sponsor was simply mute and so when it came time for rating, I simply rated him low and put down a comment. THAT woke him up. Though I hardly ask him anything, but at least I am getting my weekly "notes"-even if it is just a draft he re-sends every week.

Bottom line? Help yourself, it is the best way to go. Consult your other uplines. In my opinion, you are an awesome affiliate to be bothered by this. Many of us are looking forward to having your kind as downlines.

Where there is will there is way. Never forget some words – Perseverance, Continued and determined efforts, Study, Constant application which are very effective to bring success in one’s life. If you are possessing one of these qualities then there is no power to resist you to get success in the way of your life.

Besides these you will find an option of Google translate in most of the SFI tools, trainings, marketing and in other pages. Read….Read…..Read. You will be able to invent the lock & key of your success in SFI soon.
