Have you noticed that this question is categorized under Duplication, but almost none of the answers even touch on duplication?

Yes, some Affiliates concentrate on sponsoring, sponsoring, sponsoring. And of course they do get a number of PSAs who will grab on and work the business and gain status levels. But their business is mainly in width and not in depth. This does not generate a downward momentum that duplicates strong leadership. It does duplicate its sponsoring affiliate, but not in a way that gives strength to and profitability from the team. This does insure a solid team that will supply a residual income, nor sustain its membership.

That way is very expensive in time and money. And it thrives by continuing to advertize in quantity.

There is at least one Affiliate who has hinted on the Forum that he works at duplicating himself. He doesn't have hundreds of PSAs, but fully trains the ones he has and helps them to become securely established with sponsoring a team of their own. And he helps them organize the management of those down line teams. He invests much time and money to his business and keeps aware of the business community, SFI, TC, and the internet.

There are actually Team Leaders who have hundreds of thousands in their group. And there are more of them than you might think.

Granted... the majority are not currently active, but enough are to make a very nice income. And... older and previously inactive affiliates frequently come back and are ready to work hard and become successful. Timing and being ready is extremely important to most affiliates. That's why we never totally give up on inactive affiliates.

Building a large team takes a combination of things. Here are a few important factors.

* Most all of these team leaders have learned how to build a website and get significant traffic from free search engine listings and other high traffic websites. This requires Search engine optimization skills. This can be learned online at SEO Forums and other teaching websites for free. The domain names owned are easy to remember and/or have home business, work at home, online income...etc in the domain name. The domain name usually matches relevant key word phrases people use to search for an opportunity to earn money online.

* Using marketing strategies learned from proven experts. This includes methods provided by SFI.

* Teaching duplication techniques [provided by SFI] to their PSA's who in turn teach to theirs and so on...

* Communications. This means responding to contacts from team mates in a timely manner. It also includes posting valuable and important stream messages.

* This takes a lot of time and hard work for at least the first 3-5 yrs... and forward from there.

* There is also some luck involved, which is more likely to happen the longer you work with SFI.. along with your Team staying active.

The bottom line is... when you see an active PTL or GTL whose been in SFI for at least 5 years, they usually have a downline minimum of 10,000+. And there are some real "go getters" who've done it in a year or two.

Yes, there are team leaders with tens of 1000s of affiliates. The main thing they do differently is simply this: They never stop prospecting or running their ads. I'm certain that they also have told their downline. I am also certain that they realize that every one does not have the same budget. Therefore, it is necessary that every affiliate must have an advertising budget so that they can promote their gateways to sponsor affiliates.

Similarly, they invest in co-ops so that they can sponsor more affiliates at lower costs. Co-op advertising is available at TripleClicks. The S-Builder is the best option seeing that it is sponsored by SFIMG. Other co-ops are optional and the buyer should beware that there are no guarantee of the productivity of any co-op.

Therefore, paid advertising is how team leaders build large organizations. Yet, free advertising can also be used to sponsor affiliates. Paid advertising is much faster but free advertising does work but requires testing, time, and effort. Remember quality is better than quantity but you must continue to sponsor affiliates to maintain growth and profitability.

Always do remember, today’s Team Leaders were yesterday’s new affiliates. A leader cant be born in an overnight but through sheer determination and hard work only.

An affiliate starts his/her career with our SFI from the scratch but slowly and steadily they learn to create their own downline by enrolling more and more affiliates under their belt. There is no magic or supernatural things in their activities but just pure determination and self belief. They transpire all the tricks and ideas they learned in their own progress to their downline which can create immense faith in their downline to move forward and suggest more and more people for their team.

To create such a vast team of affiliates, one should have a proper and perfect plan. I always offer incentives and other attractive offers to my downline so that they will work harder and enjoy all the benefits of the things I offer. I offer free PSAs, Gift Certificates, etc. for them to move forward and reach their status of EA2 or more regularly. I do always believe in togetherness and without their contribution, I can’t be successful in this system. I also believe, my Team’s growth is my growth too.

Initially, I also felt the difficulties in communication and interacting with my huge downline but slowly, I have found out some useful ways for my own downline so that they will be able to contact me always. Some of my ideas that I follow are as follows:

1) My Team has got all the liberty to contact me either on Phone or by Mail.
2) I have created a separate Group inside my Facebook exclusively for my team where I can give all the tips and be able to properly guide them to achieve the maximum success.
3) I always invite my downline to chat with me on Skype.

Everyone will have their own strategy to move and grow up in SFI but I do believe in those simple and effective principles and now I am really proud to have a very large and active team.

Mind you, change and growth take place when a person has risked himself and dares to become involved with experimenting with his own life.

Although I do not have a huge team, as I have not been active as much as possible until recently, these are my suggestions.

These affiliates may be doing something different when it comes to marketing or advertising their business.
But most likely they have more time invested. This time spent can help grow their team immensely, just on it's own.

They may also have a monetary investment of some kind and they use that investment to grow their business: Like buying PSA's from TripleClicks or bidding on PSA's and CSA's in auctions.

Keep in mind that having a good Leadership and T-Connect page can attract members as well, especially if you can direct people to your pages.

They use their time wisely in most cases I'm sure and can see the long-term potential of S.F.I. to help them grow.

Persistence, Determination and Read, Learn, Read, and Learn some more to gain what it is you would like to achieve.

If you want a huge Team, don't wait until next week- Start building it now in whatever way you can. As stated elsewhere, "Don't try to re-invent the wheel" but use your imagination to come up with ways You can use to grow, even if you must start small.

I believe a combination of these things will help you achieve your desired level of success.

I wish you the best.

It is certainly true that such Team Leaders exist. They may have done a combination of the following to achieve this feat.

a. Personal Recruitment of PSAS: These leaders would have embarked on personal recruitment of PSAS from the very beginning of their enrolment as SFI affiliates and also encouraging the PSAS to do the same thing. This principle is called DUPLICATION in SFI.

b. Co-sponsor Affiliates – By virtue of the fact that they have attained leadership positions ( BTL, STL, GTL $ PTL), they get large numbers of second home CSAs in addition to the 2 CSA’s that they earn for maintaining EA.

c. Builder Co-op: Because these leader known the importance of duplication, they add at least a unit of S- Builder co-op to guaranty constant inflow of quality PSAS, who in turn will achieve the duplication process.

d. Purchases of PSAS from ECAS: These leaders also know how to purchase PSAS from ECA who offers such services.

e. Advertising- One thing these leaders know how to do best is that they spend a lot of time and money on adverting both online and offline. They know which sites generate good and high quality PSAS that imparts on their group.

Those who build a huge downline are to be admired for their persistence and creativity. For one thing, they may be more aggressive advertising gurus than we are. They focus on getting the word out to everyone and everywhere they can think of.

Their aggression is in advertising daily both on free advertising sites and on paid advertising sites. This can be done both online and offline and of course, they encourage their team to do the same. This is their financial investment and the signups are the ROI (Return on Investment).

In addition, marketing may be their strongest skill and so they pursue this line of the business. They utilize their gateways profitably and in a short space of time they get results and will, without doubt, be quite successful.

Secondly, they may play price benders and focus on winning those auctions where CSAs and PSAs are offered. It does not matter how much they win because they can simply transfer to their downline affiliates and thereby gain additional action points.

Another way they may gain these affiliates is by moving up the ladder to the highest team leader level – Platinum, and so they gain the largest share of Second Home Co-Sponsored Affiliates.

It is important to note here that the quantity of affiliates does not make one successful but the quality of those affiliates who become team members. Nonetheless, from the quantity one can sift out the quality.

Great question about leadership qualities that help to build large downline teams.

On a personal note, I am on my way to doing this so I can share what I have done thus far - I have invested time, energy, and some funds into Sbuilder Units, PSA recruitment services from our TripleClicks store, and advertise in different ways as what has been shared through Forum Posts and ASKSC and even information listed under our Reference tab SFI portal.

The most important of all is to be sure that as a leader of a down-line you keep improving your own qualities of engagement with team members so as to encourage them to grow their business too. As a leader, we become role models and coaches to others to use strategies that are helpful and healthy for everyone's SFI business for growth and sustainability.

it is important to be clear in your mind and business plan that you want to have an extensive team and that you are able to share this with your down-line members as well as share with them how your progress is doing.

The more transparent you are as a leader the more you have engaged team members wanting to help you as you help them.

Growth is not about what you spend, it truly is an outcome of your business practices and how you learn more skills and strategies that inform your business practice. The more proficient you become the easier it will be to share your skills, strategies and ideas on what works and what does not work.

Happy Growth to YOU!
