There are many appropriate answers to this quesstion; but I believe the ultimate question that you are asking is for us to give you some of the ways that we have used that have worked. Fine.

One of the best ways that I stay in contact with my team is through social media. I use the normal SFI site to do the emailing and all of that, but when I see that I have a potential worker; whether PSA or CSA, I request them on media like Facebook, Twitter, LinkdIn - things of that nature. I try to stay in contact with them on a continued basis, not just on SFI.

I believe the more you help someone, the better they'll become. The better they become, the more successful they are. And in the words of the late Zig Ziglar, "you can have ANYTHING you want in life if you just help enough people get what they want in life."

Hope this helps...

Regular contact with PSAs and CSAs is vital for the business. Sunday weekly PSA Mailer, CSA Mailer, or Genealogy Group Mailer is mandatory. I usually contact my PSAs on Sunday, my CSAs on Monday and if there is SFI news to share like the new Marketing Center or E-card program, or milestones, I use Genealogy Group Mailer to reach the team.

But there is more to it than meets the eye. A good sponsor should be at their team’s disposal as much as possible, like a doctor on call. As soon as somebody asks for assistance or information, the sponsor should be ready to respond. These cases are hard to predict, so log in as often as you can and try to reply your down line within 24 hours at the latest.

At the same time be concise, clear and efficient. Never intrude on your affiliates’ privacy. In my opinion this is the best way to be in touch with your PSAs and CSAs and offer the help needed.

Most affiliates who have answered this question “advice” that contacting one’s PSAs and CSAs once a week is sufficient. (I wonder if they say that only because SFI encourages us to do so and rewards us with 30 ACTION VP when we do and I wonder what they response would be if SFI didn’t encourage us in this way.)

However I find contacting my PSAs and CSAs (and even my A2A friends) is easy – it’s whenever I wish to and have something to say. The difficulty I have is getting a response. I have 399 people in my team (and 77 A2A friends) but only a few have contacted me. Most haven’t even responded with a “commitment” letter when they join SFI.

So what do I do? New PSAs and CSAs get the welcome letter and when another team mail a few days later that explain SFI briefly, that it is their business, that if they work at it over time they will be successful, and that I am totally committed to SFI, believe in it whole-heartedly and are there to help them in any way I can. I tell them a little about myself and I encourage them to tell me a bit about themselves too. I congratulate them for choosing SFI. That this is THEIR business and that they should work in a way that suits them. There is no rush. And I explain they can grow their business with or without any cash investment – that I am happy to help them either way. I encourage them to log into SFI each day, to read all my Stream Posts and to visit my Leadership Page and read all my Blogs – that I hope each of these will be of help to them as they describe my journey in SFI.

And yes, they do receive a weekly team mail. This congratulates the MOVERS, explains something about SFI such as how to promote a product from TripleClicks, encourages goal setting in SFI and reflecting on one’s achievements, what I have done, am doing and am trying to do. And invites questions and comments, good or bad.

And I have sent out an additional team mail at times to highlight a special issue which one of my team had raised, such as the VP streak vacation, and I give the team member recognition too for raising it.

I do at least three Stream posts each week (so far 10 this month) and regular blogs (so far 12 this month). I don’t really know how they are being received.

And I write separately to each of my MOVERS with advice I hope will help them. Then, when I do get a response or a question, I reply as soon as I can and as fully as I can. Usually I have to research the topic as I want to “get it right”. I even translate a personal team mail into their native language (using translate.google.com), so they get an English version and a version in their own language (but again I don’t really know how well this is being received as no-one has told me yet).

Actually I use any questions I am asked as training opportunities – as a chance for me to “bone up” on an answer and prepare something that I can re-use. These seem to be very well received and of great encouragement to the team member concerned.

I’ve used SFIM Chat a couple of times when one of my team has been online but it is a bit slow, maybe that is because of the language barrier.

To be honest I just don’t have time to try and contact each person individually – does anybody? So I am learning to use the Genealogy Report to “reach out” to specific groups within my team with a specific message to them. I am hoping that over time some of them may become active again.

You know, really it is usually “one way traffic” from me to my team. I’d love to be able to really get to know my team members as individuals but that can only happen when they respond. I am still working out how best to achieve this. In the mean time because SFI offers the TEAM MAIL facility where I can quickly send a message to all my team I do use that on a weekly basis. What a great service this is to us. Everyone gets that message – it’s the least I can do.

Hi Eva,

The best way to stay in contact with PSAs & CSAs is understand their need and help them if they feel your support is use full for them they will keep in touch with you also you can communicate with them

We should decide it watching their VP ledger how to communicate & contact them.
If we feel we should give some extra guidance to lead them we can send 2-3 message. Remember maximum of 3 messages sufficient if we sending more mails and repeated messages it give negative impact.

If your PSAs & CSAs are active then one weekly support message is sufficient.

Medium of contact we can use Group Mail, CSA Mail, PSA Mail , online chat from SFI Site.

Except these we can use SKYPE, GTALK, FACE BOOK etc

Hi Eva
Hope all is well and prosperous for you.

The best way to stay in contact with your PSA's and CSA's is to use the Team Mail facility. When sending out a message to your whole team though, always use the ~FIRSTNAME~ code as this will seem more personal to them rather than Teammates, friends etc. They will feel that you have sent the message to just them personally. Always read it back to yourself before sending it too. As this way you can put yourself in their shoes and see how you feel the author of the letter is addressing you. Are you being spoken to as an individual or as the rest of the team?
You should always answer any questions you get as soon as you get them. Don't send a mail everyday or they will just start to delete them. Just send a mail probably twice to three times a week. The key is .... Stay in touch but don't pester them.

Hope this helps

HI. my approach to that is to use your genealogy to send them team mails at least once a week because if you send them more than that they may assume your being pushy when you are only trying to lead and guide them and help them stay on track. and if you have PSA'a and CSA's that are doing well..take the time out to send them an individual email to let them know that you really do care about the progress that they are making and that show of care will make them want to strive to do even better just because you showed them that you do truly care when they succeed at something.

I hope this helps:)

From my experience, the best way to stay in contact with PSAs and CSAs is through the weekly mailer as recommended by SFI. This is because the mailer is the best guarantee you have that your message will be delivered as sent. You can send bulletins, tips, motivation articles and general howdy to your PSAs and CSAs at least once a week. I think once a week is about ideal as SFI recommends because i believe sincerely that they must have a lot of reasons and some proven experience to back their recommendations.

In this business, you may however strike very personal relationships with either some of your PSAs or CSAs as i have done. In that case, you can get in touch more often either by email or even telephone contacts. If however it is strictly business relationship, once or twice a week to my mind is about OK. That is my own take on this issue and i hope it answers your question.

I think once a week is best through the genealogy mailer, but sometimes some members need more attention. For them, as often as needed. Most people don't seek out answers directly, but if someone emails you with questions it is best to find the right answer(s) as soon as you are able!

Otherwise, I communicate with both active as well as inactive members every week or so, give or take a few days. Sometimes once every ten days and sometimes once every five or six days, but I communicate consistently.

I try to send encouraging messages so that even those who have gone inactive might be inspired to log in again and stress that it takes time to build the SFI business...

Best wishes, hope this has helped! : D

Hi - Indeed this is a good question. People will have many PSAs and CSAs as their down line. But most of the PSAs and CSAs will not be in active stage. So as a Sponsor, it is your duty to connect with the PSAs and CSAs and help them to clarify their quires on SFI to build the business.

Best ways that i can suggest are...

1. Motivate the PSAs and CSAs through weekly emails.
2. Use the social networking sites like Facebook, twitter and stay connect with them and help them to clarify the queries.
3. Followup with the emails to get to know each other better so that you can help them in a better way.
4. If you know PSAs or CSAs personally, it is better to discuss face to face or on phone and motivate them.
5. We can also get in touch with the PSAs and CSAs when we find them online in SFI using SFI chat window. Since they are online at that point in time, chat with them at that time helps to get them involved in SFI.
6. Also we can share the phone numbers with few of the PSAs and CSAs and offer help to know about SFI business.

I would recommend to stay connect with all your PSAs and CSAs Every three days / weekly once with the email.

Hope this helps...

For me the best way to stay in contact with my PSAs and CSAs is by sending them mails through our PSA/CSA mailers once a week, that is the reason why we are awarded 30 versapoints weekly by doing it.

You can also send your mail to their personal e-mails if you wish to stay in contact with them, also by sending team mails through your stream portion.

Too much contact with them is not good too. Some joins for No reason at all, they just happen to sign in. Good luck.
