Good questions.

Just to keep it short what I usually do is include links to any news that I think is good for boosting business with an explanation of why. I include a shout out to the movers and a small tip about something that will help with their business.

I also include links to my leadership page which I update the blog on once a week for the newsletter. I also include a link to my personal home business blog that I run off site, which I also update once a week for the

In my opinion S-Builders is better. Both are at your own risk options though. They will both provide PSA's but they both provide ones that may or may not be active.

Reason I say S-Builders is because, although it may take a while longer to actually start seeing any sign ups you have the chance to not only get PSA's but also PRM's for your TC store. This in my opinion is the best way to go as I have found that advertising I can get plenty of PSA's but almost no PRM's. So far using S-Builders

When just starting make sure that you are viewing the 3 tabs up by your affiliate information on your affiliate home page. START, SFI BASICS, and LAUNCHPAD as these will give you a good overview on SFI, TC, and what you will be needing to do to grow your business, as well as useful links to where you need to go to find out how to advertise and all the tools we have for advertising out gateways.

I would definately suggest making sure you attain Fast Track within your first 10 days and gold

First off in your welcome message make sure they know to check out the 3 tabs: START, SFI BASICS, and LAUNCHPAD so that they can get a overview on both the company, TC , and what they will be doing to start their business.

Then on your leadership page, write down ( I do it in the blog section ) exactly what you are doing to get PSA's/PRM's so that they can then choose to either do it the way you have directed or choose a different path. Put a link to your leadership page in the welcome

There are many things you can spend your MRP on. I tend to go more towards putting them back into my business so I can do things like buy traffic without actually having to pay for it. My next batch that I will be saving will go towards a custom domain page or a hosting package for a blog site.

So there are many uses for them and it is all up to the individual what they are actually used for. Hope this helps a bit.

Depends on you really, If you want to make the financial investment needed to attain a TL rank on a monthly basis then that is you choice to make, you need to weigh the benefits against the risk. Also if you do want to do this I would make sure I had at least something on SO to get me PSA's every month so that I could begin building an effective team that would later allow me to get to TL ranks without having to spend as much money.

If persons I sponsor advance in SFI faster than I do, should I continue to try to train and support them?

Absolutely, it is actually a win-win situation because you may know of something to make their business better that they have not thought of or utilized yet.

Also on the flip side they may be able to show you how they got to the level they are at and guide you to more success. So you can help each other out with ideas and techniques, working together to increase the profitability of both business and pushing both you and your PSA into a better position.

When you initiate an online chat with a new PSA, what should you discuss?

First thing I would discuss is the importance of doing the getting started tasks under the to do list and also the launchpad lessons, as these help get a good overview of the SFI and TripleClick marketing concept. Of course, you will want to discuss the fact that this is not a get rich quick scheme it is an actual business and as a business you need to be prepared to get onto your affiliate homepage everyday and do some kind of work. Then I would go into the daily tasks that need to be done.

For my VP I have a SO for 125 TCredits to automatically get me 1500 VP every month gets me to EA. Of course your daily,weekly, monthly tasks all add up. I also enjoy playing Knockout Trivia which gives some points. Also have a SO for 1 s-builder unit. All of these combined makes me a bronze team leader by the end of the month so that is how I get my needed VP. Hope this helps some.

How do you allocate your time for SFI and TripleClicks? What percentage of your time do you spend on marketing, training, communications, etc.?

Ok a few answers for a few questions first I spend most of my time on my SFI affiliate home page. I do go to to TC to play games sometimes and I also always check out and post the daily deals to my social networks but I tend to focus on the team building and not the sales at first. I figure I have s-builder as one of my ad campaigns so that can and has already brought be in a PRM so I can use the rest of my resources to recruit a downline for SFI.

Most of my time is devoted to marketing
