If you don't have the time, you can still succeed at SFI, all you do to compensate is spend money or build a fast growing team.

Buy PSA's, get three great letters to send your new PSA's: Welcome Letter, Fast Start Letter and 1500 VP Challenge to qualify for EA in their first month. Then urge them to get a Standing Order of 100 TCredits in their second month to move them to EA2.

Reward them with a $30 Gift Certificate to pay for their Standing Order in Month 3,and with at

My Daughter in law signed up SFI in November after a week. I asked her to devote 15 minutes a day to SFI she said I don't have time.

1.I said to her you can't buy it, so make some. What do you think everyone else running their own business does? They make sacrifices. They give up TV. They stop going to the football game. They stop socializing so much. If you really want it really, really, really bad, you'll find the time. Focus on your downtime hours. What do you do between 5am and 8am

You should be ready to invest some quality time(1-2 hrs) initially on regular basis to strengthen your business. You should maintain the right balance -in this case, less time and more money- to build your business and later on you can enjoy the residual income flow.

It may be difficult on first sight but after trying you will see how easy it is.
- setup a SO (standing order) for 1500 VP and 125 TC credits because you can use them to purchase lots of things and bid on auctions.

I myself am an Executive Chef for a Restaurant in a very busy tourist town, I normally work more than 65 hours a week, yet I find time every day at least 1 hour to work SFI.
I do my daily's, read everything I can. Purchase s-builder co-op, buy the things i would normally buy at the store through triple clicks, I do free advertising as well as paid advertising, I also have a website with an auto responder, and I do all this for less than $100 a month, this is money i would be spending any way.

The word business implies being engaged in a commercial or any profitable activity that may in the long run generate income of some sort.

Hence anyone going into any business counts the cost. The most valuable things to look at when starting a business are the time and funds to invest.
Though there are many other things to consider when starting a business, these two are key to success in business.

SFI is a real business demanding real attention of time and money. Yet it

As the saying goes, Time is Gold. If we will put this saying in our SFI business or in any business, we can't really quantify the amount of time that we should invest in order for our business to work. It is just a matter of time management. 1 hour in doing your SFI business especially doing the to-do list doesn't cost much of your time.

Like me, I'm doing my SFI business after my work. I really do find the time to do it regularly because I do know that this business really works.

In the beginning, your SFI time can be less than an hour a day. Reading the Launchpad Lesson, reviewing the red tabs and completing one or more items on the to-do list do not need to; take longer than that.

It's funny, though, that when you start to get involved and excited about the business, you find more time to spend on it! It is fun to see how many hits this ad got compared to that one, or how many people commented on your blog or forum entry. Giving up Wheel of Fortune or The

Hello Mei-la Chi,

Everyone on this earth has 24 hrs in a day. Its your priority that decides where you devote more time. If SFI is your priority, you would some how find enough time to do it. Still I would like to put down my views on your question:

1 Time can be traded with money. As it is rightly said time is money. If you don’t have enough time, you can invest more money in SFI.

2. Run your Ad on free as well as on paid advertising websites.

3. Use

It's all about priorities. We all have limited time with lots of different priorities pulling at us and our attention.

Determine just how much time you do have to dedicate then use that time for SFI only - no interruptions. Let your family know that the hour you've dedicated is protected time - no phone calls, no TV no interruptions at all. Close the door if you can and turn off your phone. Then spend that hour (or whatever amount of time you've dedicated) to working on your business.

My best advice is to "learn the program" and the Home Page.
Study all the materials provided by SFI.
Decide on a budget.
Establish goals.
Then, pursue the marketing you are most comfortable with first.
It does not matter if it is promoting prospects or marketing in the
TripleClicks Store.
If you time is limited, you must devote your full attention to one
project at a time, until you are comfortable.
Then, move on to the next project.
