For me, the best way of communicating with my downline is through email. I can easily spot a new message and then I can answer in due time. I can also send attachments, pictures and other useful materials with the help of email. This works best for me, because I noticed that not every PSA/CSA likes to be contacted on facebook or skype, but majority likes to be contacted with an email, because they can choose whether they want or not to answer and they can answer whenever they want.

How often? Well, that really depends on a particular PSA/CSA. Some want to chat every day and others don't like to be contacted at all. So using your weekly message is enough, and for those who want to be contacted more often send them not more then two or three messages beside the weekly message.

Hope this helps.

To me..the best way to stay in touch with your PSAs and CSAs varies.

You can use your genealogy and send a weekly news latter to them generally as you direct or tell them what to do to be successful. You can also use it to check on them as you appreciate them on their effort too.

You should also know that any CSA you have has his or her sponsor and uplines,therefore the sponsor and uplines plays more role in guiding or assisting them.
For your PSAs they expect much from you as their sponsor,therefore it must not only be through genealogy..you can also use your social networks like facebook,BBM etc to keep them on track. Goodluck!!

It is best to determine the level of interest of whom you are engaging in a conversation ranging from those who are very eager who are almost impatient to wait for your response down to those who never show any manifestation of interest to know what SFI can do best for their future.

In my experience, very eager affiliates are those as I told almost impatient to wait for your answer to their question or request of assistance. As much as possible do not leave a lull moment as it may trigger undesirable impression from such affiliate you are assisting.

Those who are once in a while contacting you may already have established how to work with their ownselves. You can send encouraging message to them also once in a while just to tell them that you are ready to support them anytime.

Those who never even pick any points, do not be bothered of them, just include them to your weekly mailing list. You may never know, one day, they may be contacting you and eagerly needing your assistance out from their restings.

This means you need to categorize them and best is to respond promptly to their request, which is the reason why SFI is encouraging us to check our SFI-connected accounts (Affiliate Center, TripleClicks Members Center, emails and team mails) as frequent as we can, since we cannot predict when and how our affiliates will contact us for their individual concerns.

I joined SFI since 2010 but have been inactive until last year December and I am in my 2nd month with SFI now and still learning from my own experience. I have gathered some strategies and been learning to apply them everytime.. I am also in a tight budget but then its only a matter on how you apply small resources to gain bigger results. ENCOURAGEMENT, PATIENCE and PERSEVERANCE are the keys to succeed WITH YOUR PSAs AND CSAs.

Some best ways that I have used and worked for me is:

1. Keep encouraging them by just sending both PSAs and CSAs message/emails/Team, also Chats with them whenever you notice anyone online, for sure someone if not all of them would get the attention you need.

But before doing the above I will advice that you have to know what SFI is all about yourself therefore, read and study the SFI Basic, LaunchPad, and Forum. There are sufficient amount of information there that could help you run the business on your own. You just have to understand every single bit of information there and learn to apply them in your SFI business. By so doing you will be able to impact such knowledge with your PSAs and CSAs and that will also help you to answer any questions from your PSAs and CSAs.


2. Communicating with your a2a friends will also help you to acquire more better ways to contact your PSA and CSA. Your a2a friends would be a great help for you in terms of advises and encouragement, so start communicating with them. They can as well share with you their best practices. And last but not the least, visit the Forum. There are a lot of SFI members, mostly who has been in the business for years, could help you on your queries and all and you can always use this to help your PSAs and CSAs too.

And with the three qualities I mentioned above i.e. ENCOURAGEMENT, PATIENCE and PERSEVERANCE, you can always be there for your PSAs and CSAs.

Thank you.

Team mail, and SFI SMS are great ways to stay connectecd with all of your downline members.

Personally I send out a Team Newsletter once per week and then through out each week I connect personally with members of my down-line to get to know them better as well as answer questions they may have while they are learning about SFI and growing their own business.

Communication is important for any team. To be able to connect with fellow team members is key so you may need to solicit feed-back from your team members as to which approach they prefer: video conference as a group meeting, video conference as 1 - 1 by using Skype or Ovoo or any other free on-line service you know of, telephone conversation, SFI Team Mailer, regular e-mail, or SFI SMS or even regular mail to send a friendly card to keep team members motivated.

I have found that everyone is different as to how to best communicate with them so ask them. They will be able to describe what is best for them.

As we all know our PSAs and CSAs success determines our level of success. Since this is the case the line of communication must always be open and functional.
In my view communication is determined by the level of activity within your team. If your members are active then regular communication is necessary let us say twice per week would be good. However, the rate of communication would also increase if particular members require some sort of assistance.

For Semi-active to non-active affiliates I believe weekly communications is sufficient. This would serve as a type of checking in/ motivational/informative correspondence (This of-course would also be sent to your active members.) if you may. As the gap between semi-active and non-active increases, periodic newsletter about the Team’s and SFI’s Successes would be sent to the seemingly non-active members with the hope that they eventually return to SFI and the Team. This way, it would not seem as if they are being bothered (forced) about returning and becoming active members. It would be somewhat of a courtesy correspondence.

Means of Communications

For active members, Team mails, personal mails, personal notes, chats using SFI messenger and any other medium to which team members agree will be beneficial.

For semi-active members Team mails and person mails in my opinion are ok. As their status changes so will the means of communication.

For non-active members I would prefer sticking with Team mails until they become active.

All the best!!

Hello,

I think the best ways you can communicate with your PSA's & CSA's is first by sending them an email by going to each new member profile getting their email address then sending them a Welcome to SFI message within the first hour or so of them Joining if you can?!

Then send them a Team mail, do this by clicking on the tm tab next to their name in Genealogy.

Then once a week send Your whole Team messages of support, give praise for one or more of your Team making it to the next Status Level!!
Encourage them the way you would like to be encouraged by your Sponsor!
Give enough time to contact your PSA's or your CSA's if they say they need help in any aspect of SFI or TripleClicks!

Be more than a Sponsor or Co-Sponsor, Be someone they can talk to! Be a Friend!

Hope you get the answer your looking for?
See you at the Top!

I would say the best way to contact my PSAs and CSAs is to email them immediately on their personal email addresses as soon as they are assigned to us.
By SFIM CHAt, , I immediately grab the opportunity to communicate with them and encourage them, and always ask how I can help them.
Always be on the alert to help them.
Why I mention this, is because my Upline Sponsor was always available to help me and encourage me.
Create your Leadership page and inform and notify your team members to log in and check out your leadership page.
If anyone has set up their webpage, encourage your team to log in, where they can find your training and marketing tools too.
Weekly Mail, this is a must. I look forward to sending out my weekly mail to all my team.
Skype, Facebook, Twitter, Skype - and don't forget your Google Translator for all our non English speaking affiliates.
SFI is a world renowned Company, I have never ever seen such unity amongst all the nations of the world, and we all speak the same language.
Bravo to SFI

I would say the best way to stay in contact with your PSAs and CSAs is not always the internal message system initially of course you would want to use it for the first few contacts, however what most people are looking for when they connect is actual contact to know that the person writing them is real and not some bot, there is lot of skepticism about online businesses and scams where people are supposedly signed up and you should never exchange E-Mail addresses with them, against the rules of the platform etc. this scares people away because it gives a shady appearance and thus SFI actually encourages its members to reach out this goes only to show the professional stance of the company as well as a professionals stance of the leaders that you have if you are contacted with the E-Mail contact and or telephone number then you can pretty much be sure that the person contacting you is concerned about the business and worth keeping in contact with the others are either still skeptical or not going to be worth your effort in the long run because they will end up giving up.

How to go about it I stated above once you get to know them a bit send the E-Mail with your contact information use your leadership page and make contact at least every other day in my opinion so that they are not over flooded with information and E-Mails, you might also consider asking them how often they would like to hear from you as a sponsor yes it means a bit more work on your part to keep a list but I’d prefer keeping a list then letting others think I have forgotten them.

Something that we also might consider is trying to get them into the forums and interacting with them in a Q & A session about the area where they are I haven’t checked the forums yet if they already have groups for teams set up but I am sure we can contact the SFI leaders and get this approved if the incentive is shown that the leaders starting it are willing to follow through on it.
