HI, listen you have got to get inside their heads. Friend them on face book, there is a chance to connect with them on video which really makes a good impression. Also in reviewing their profile on face book you get to know their likes on music and movies this makes connecting to them on a more personal level much more affective.
Use you SFI communications they are good, but remember they may not come back to the site so use their personal email also. Just ask if there is anything you can

In the business we work in we need to make personal contact in as many ways as possible. To show people that they are important means showing them you are thinking of them often. the new e-card are a great way to remember your people's birthday, you can congratulate them on there accomplishment. Encourage them in the bad times, surprise them just for the heck of it.
Everyone loves to be thought of in a good way. tips and best wishes have always been great and now SFI has given us a

Janet you ask a stick question, whether it is better to be nice to your sponsor or do the best for your business. My sponsor is a great guy and is always trying to help his people in any way he can, he has set up co-ops for us but he always lets us know that we can do s-builder instead. He doesn't let his ego get in his way, he is continually looking for things that will help his team.
The question is what is better for your business, my advice is to try both. you can try your uplines

If you were to make friends on a2a and then let them know you had products that might be of service to them at your eca, I would see nothing wrong with that, you would be pushing your eca store not the products. Something else helpful would be naming your store in a manner that would let people know what the content in the store is, then you could just mention the name.
Please make it about the affiliates not about you making money, be sure you have quality products that you have used

You don't think I know the answer? I know the answer.... ok well the quickest way is to buy them. That's easy and quick. The next way is to do ALOT of paid advertising. You will probably spend as much as the first way. I guess you could hire a head hunter agency that look for good people for your business.
I know you think I am making a joke, maybe I am because I think this question is a little grandiose. Please let me explain before you hit the bad button.

You know there are many ways to look at this. There is the professional way, there is the "get people that I can hang with" way, there is the "sex sell everything" way. I will take these one at a time and see what you think.
First, most people will say you need to be professional. Use a picture of your head and a couple of inches of shoulders. This shows you are serious about you business and looking for serious people to help you reach you goals.
The second

Well lets see, how often should you talk to your up line, wow listen, as an up line I love my people to contact me, I mean everyday is ok.
That being said, if you are using your sponsor to answer questions that you should know the answer to because you were supposed to read, then I would ask if you read what you were supposed to.
Much better to ask your sponsor where the answer is to be found. Then if you can't understand what is being said then ask your up-line to simplify

There is two ways to look at a standing order, as a blessing or a curse.
First it's a blessing because it allows you to be able to concentrate on more important things then scrambling for points each month. Plus it opens up many more avenues for profit by staying EA.
To some it's a curse, they think OH NO I've got to have money for that standing order. With this mind set it is a burden to have a standing order.
So we see the standing order is not the problem. It is the

I think it's interesting that you say learn how to sponsor. We should all learn how to sponsor, it is a great thing to teach your group. Not all your downline will have the benefit of buying their affiliates, so yes I would tell you to please learn how to sponsor by recruiting,
The answer to which is better for you business is a quick answer, both are equally important and I highly recommend you do both, I mean why waste a resource at your disposal, RIGHT?

OK heres your answer, LOOK IN THE MIRROR, I know you feel like you don't understand it all, no worries, it's that way with most of us.
SFI has given us all the tools to become our mentor. The site will be your mentor. I's nice to have someone to show you all the ropes, my sponsor helped me, but he showed me where to find the answers so that I could show my people where to find the answers.
If you don't have a great sponsor then remember, resistance will make muscle,you get stronger
