Well if they have limited time that is probably because they are busy with their job or business, in which case they will most likely have more disposable income.

Advise them to invest some money, a modest amount at first, then as you see results, look to invest more. Invest some of your profit back into the business.

S Builder shares are the best and most obvious way to build a team who will start earning you regular money.

Use TripleClicks as your own store, buy

When there is limited time to spend in a business other areas must be concentrated on so that progress can continue. For one thing, we cannot buy time. Therefore we must find it in other areas. If not, we must use whatever limited time we have wisely.

Use limited time to:
(a) set up a standing order of 1500 VP or more so that this will automatically guaranteed the EA status each month and allow the affiliate to benefit from the Executive Pool share distribution.

(b)

This is your business. To succeed you have to treat it like a fulltime business, not a hobby. But that said, you do not have to spend the whole 8 hours daily on it if you work smart.

All you need to do at first is to login and collect your daily VPs. That doesn't take too long. 30 minutes at the most and I do it during my breakfast time using my smartphone before I switch on my computer to do my 9 to 5 job.

Then around lunchtime I login again to look at the auctions and see

It has been my experience and my observation that the people who enjoy the greatest success in life and in business are those who plan their days, develop a workable schedule and stick to the schedule.

All achievement requires that we have a goal, a plan and a commitment to daily action.

For those who want to pursue this business, but have limited time, I suggest that they take a long-term approach to building the business.

Make a five-year plan that includes realistic

Hello.

That's a good question. The best advice I can say to those who have limited time is that people don't actually have to invest a whole bunch of hours each day in order to stay here. Spending about 20-30 minutes each day here in SFI is good. Considering the "daily, weekly, and monthly tasks" to do every day, week, and month takes time each day. The traditional 11 Versapoints can be earned every Monday-Saturday from doing those tasks. The traditional 49 Versapoints can be

If I have a limited time to invest in SFI, I will recommend the following:

1, Your Time Management

Set aside time for doing SFI each day without jeopardizing your other commitment. This could be your full time job. If you work 8 hours a day, 5 days a week, then plan 2 hours for SFI. If possible, you can also put more hours on the weekend. You need time for doing your To-Do List and staying contact with your team consistently.

2. Your Financial Management:

My advice to such a member is that he/she should do the following

1. Invest in at least one unit of S-Builder Co-op share monthly. This will give him/her 5-8 PSAs. This is very important because without active PSAs his/her Sfi business will not be successful

2 He/she should place a Standing Order on TC product(s) that has 1500 VPS preferably 125 pkt Tcredit. This will automatically guarantee him/her Executive Rank (EA) where he/she can earn in 6(six) different ways ( a) Direct

Hello Mei-la Chi,

The 1st thing a new SFI affiliate has to do is to read each new email sent from SFI when they sign up. They should read each Launch Pad lessons and answer the quiz question. This takes about 2 minutes. The new affiliate can actually proceed to the next lesson and continue until they finish all 30 lessons. To be honest, any new SFI affiliate that doesn't follow through with the Launchpad lessons will not understand what SFI is all about. They will never understand the

For those who want to pursue this business and have limited time, I would suggest that they:

1. Make a time schedule for at least half an hour each day to complete their daily tasks. These daily tasks add up to give you action points. These points are necessary especially if you want to move above the rank of EA.

2. Set up a standing order of 1500 VPs. This will ensure that you qualify as EA each month with the minimum qualification. You can do this by ordering 125 TCredits.

One of the great things about this business, Mei-La is that you can do it in your own time. You are your own boss and you set your own daily routine.

Logging in daily and getting through your To Do list takes 10-20mins and you can set another 30 mins, hour or two hours to work on advertising, setting up blogs, Facebook pages or whatever you choose to do.

How long does it take to read one of the Launchpad lessons?

I think the main thing to tell them is that this is
