Rome was not built in a day. Give the affiliates all the support they require. Share your experiences and success with them. Ask them to send a2a requests to local top affiliates who may be able to impart useful tips and inspiration. Ask them them to read ask SC questions and answers and testimonials. Most testimonials indicate success never came overnight; it was a result of hard work and determination. Encourage them to focus on the similarities of this business with a brick and mortar one; you can't expect profits from a shop unless you open doors and work consistently

When considering if you are moving forward or standing still you only need to observe your surroundings and you will notice time moves even if you don’t so yes there will be times when you feel you are not moving forward but in actuality you are because time doesn’t stand still only the actions we take stop us from seeing our movement.

Possibly a bit confusing but in reality time and movement are one and the same so if you feel or an affiliate feels they are not getting anywhere then the actions they are taking are the actions that they are seeing, if they see no movement then they are not doing what is needed to see the movement.

So you need to motivate them to go somewhere, by giving up they or your stop moving forward only in your actions thus you get nowhere and that is what happens to those who give up to early, this is a business, and all businesses require a certain amount of commitment, dedication and above all a work passion without this you will fail.

In the beginning you will feel as if you are not getting anywhere it is normal, there is nothing you can do to change it. Similar to when you plant a tree you see a few roots, a bit of green and brown and earth around it so you see there is something there, yet you don’t know once you have planted it what the end result will be, how large it will grow, how strong it will be or how much shade it will give.

If properly cared for, you know that it will grow, it will eventually give some shade and possibly even bare fruits as long as it is cared for. The tree will not grow overnight to where you can see it, nor do you expect it to, it is small and the roots are weak but as it grows the roots become stronger and the tree grows not knowing how high it will eventually grow or if it will bare fruits or just give shade, so tell yourself or your affiliates to take care of the business like they would a tree in the beginning the roots need to be made strong, it needs water and nourishment and with time and by doing the basics over and over daily eventually the tree will grow and depending on the tree you plant the flowers or fruits will be your reward.

Hope it helps and if you or your affiliates still need motivation then the best motivation I can think of would be to actually go plant a tree in the yard and take care of it daily to remind yourself to take care of your business as well this way you see your dreams of what the tree may become daily and your business will be that tree and your future and then make the future become reality.

To be honest with you there is LOTS and LOTS of proof of Affiliates who are making it here at SFI so for one to say they are getting Nowhere with SFI is quite a BIG Surprise and shock to me.

It is feels so wrong for one to say they are getting nowhere at something. Common! Even seating and doing nothing is still doing something in the reverse direction. You lose your time.

Personally I believe it's wrong for one to say they are getting NOWHERE here at SFI. I think saying that you are getting nowhere is a very BAD excuse not to face up to your challenge and over come it or give something a try. You just can't be STATIC and do nothing and expect things to work out. You gotta keep moving and Favor favors the BOLD.

There are two scenarios or ways on how to deal with this situation.

SCENARIO 1
1. If your Affiliate is for some reason or another overwhelmed by so much information BUT is willing to learn and WORK their business long term, then I would suggest you consider it your duty to TEACH and MENTOR them using the awesome sponsor tips outlined in SFI i.e
Going through the launch pad lessons
Going through the Basics
Logging in Daily and getting their tasks done
Teaching and showing them how to advertise on Free ad sites
Running coops
Offering Incentives and gift Certs
Running Team Contests
Showing them the "Success has rules Tips and guidelines"
Sending TM messages regularly to them
Opening up your clear lines of communication and offering a genuine helping hand plus many other awesome sponsor tips that I can't name all here. I believe when you do that they will get motivated to work harder.

SCENARIO 2
2. If your Affiliate truly believes they are getting nowhere with SFI which I don't believe is true after you have done all of the above great sponsor tips and more, they are probably tire kickers looking for some get rich quick shiny object. How do you deal with them
Get real with them and politely tell them SFI is not a ONE TIME HIT WONDER fly by night type of business. It's a REAL business and takes time to build.
It's a numbers game and the laws of average are in full force here. Gery the SFI president himself said it. WORK WITH THE WORKERS!
Here's a quote from Success rule no. 4

"Way too many people focus on QUANTITY. They sponsor dozens, even hundreds of affiliates–which is great–but it is ultimately QUALITY that is the real key. Once you've found or developed 3-5 topnotch affiliates, you're going to see a lot of great things happen with your commission check."
How do you develop quality affiliates? It's real simple: WORK WITH THE WORKERS!

In conclusion you should learn to value your time as your best asset. If someone is truly seeking financial FREEDOM and is willing to work their business like you, Work with them and give ALL of your support like your future depended on them BUT if they feel they can't do it after you have done all you can to help them they are right and you should let them be. VALUE YOUR TIME!

Best Wishes

Nothing good comes easy. Perseverance is key. Knowing why you joined SFI and when you will reap the benefits must be understood. You have to put in the work and effort to be rewarded. Set your goals and be realistic. Develop a flowchart and plot your way forward. Think long-term in order to achieve success. SFI is a long-term investment and success will not come overnight. Don't be dismayed.

The dynamics of work are changing and we must be willing to tailor our commitment in working harder to achieve success. Being rewarded for your hard work will pay off. Think of it as preparing for your final exams to get your PhD, you must study and put in long hours to succeed because if you fail to prepare, prepare to fail.

The same also holds true about working. You don’t put in the long hours or dedication then you cannot expect to be adequately compensated or receive a promotion. You must be willing to work hard for success; because nothing good comes easy… The journey is not for the swift but for those who endure to the finish.

Encouragement can I give to an affiliates who feels he or she is getting nowhere with S F I are as follows:
1) I'll tell them that everyone has success in every endeavor they will engaged into as long as they follow the rules and follow what the successful affiliates are doing.

2) I'll tell them that doing S F I business is like digging a tunnel where gold and diamonds are being stock. You will follow the vein for the directions of its exact location. When there are many obstacles along the way, it means that you are very near to your destination.

In other words, at this time of hardship in S F I and you do the business right, and do what you suppose to do for your business, Your success is longer far from you.

Hello, the best encouragement I would give is to tell them to never give up in SFI. I would encourage them that I, their upline member, will always be there to guide them if they need it. I would encourage them that in this business, that there is no pressure if they can't afford anything right now at the moment nor not to give up if they can't reach a certain rank. It's always free to log in everyday to do tasks, enter the daily grand, enter in free T-Time Drawings for 2 free T-Credits, enter the pick-the-price contest for 25 or 100 free credits, and many other features.

You can only do so much to encourage them, but if they just don't have enough time or any other reasonso to stay, you've done all you can do. They can choose to opt out. Don't worry if they do do that. You just continue to keep recruiting more affiliates and offer your continuous support like you always do.

You know the saying, keep digging until you dig for the gold. You're doing a great job supporting and encourage them as much as possible. Keep doing what you do.

First of all, you should remind this affiliate why he join SFI.
Make him say in his own words what he expect from this business.

Then you should show him some testimonials, success stories and focus on how long people took to get where they are now in their success.

Tell your affiliate to take 1 action at a time and conitnue climbing his own ladder to success. There is no limit of time and no limit of earnings.

Your support and help in finding his way will make you both happy and successful as a team. And that is a very good story to tell all your future affiliates.

Regards

Great question!
I still feel like I am going no where in SFI but I keep telling myself that with time and hard work I will see my success in the future. I can honestly say that without hard work there will be no success. If you set a goal in mind then work hard to meet your goals. I would say to make goals that are realistic and within reach and then as you meet your goals set higher ones the next month and so on. You are in charge of your future and what you choose to accomplish till then is all up to you. Keep trying and do not give up. Best of luck!

Try to find out why the person is discouraged and then give pointers on how to get moving with the business. Explain to the affiliate that it takes time to build any business. The fact that you felt, at times, that you were getting nowhere but stuck with it may help. An affiliate must follow the good example of the sponsor and team leaders. So your actions will speak louder than words. Offering incentives may help as well. Just be kind and gentle but firm at times as well.

In the long run, affiliates make their own decisions about whether to stay with this business or leave. You encourage, but it's the other person's decision.

Well what I would do to encourage those who are feeling that they are heading no where or have lost their interest in SFI will be as follow from sharing with them  it is ok to take it easy for a while but remind them that Rome was never built in 1 day or overnight and  somebody once said  that to become an expert u need to put in at least 10000 hours therefore we acknowledge and accept that as long as we keep learning applying and do what we can each day some days let lose n do the minimum daily tasks and other days you do more n post more ads .

Remember to revisit why you joined SFI in the first place perhaps to build a second income or residual or a stable income and keep persevering n be patient as well as remain positive and model after the successful leaders 

All the best and see you guys at the top
