Hi Remeo,
I use my Genealogy all the time. The following is some of what I do:
1) As soon as I know my new members have been added to the list I go right to my report and if, they are on line, which a lot of them are then I introduce myself even if I do not get a chance to actually reach them. They will get the message as soon as they notice it. Also, this might be the only chance you get as they might never log back in. I make up the same email to all of them and just copy and paste to the rest.
2) When I send my message through IM, I also share that they need to check out their inbox as just found out that a lot of them do not know they even have an inbox with SFI. I actually had a new member ask me where it was located. I mentioned for them to check their inbox never thought they could not find it. I believe now we might know why so many do not come back after their first day because they never heard from their sponsor.
3) Even though, I send a message to all of them at one time, I still use their personal email and just share that I sent them a Welcome Letter and then share where on the site they can find their inbox.
4) I am always checking to see who is checking in and if I feel it is necessary to send them a personal message to see if I can help.
Hope this helps.

What are the big picture things you are doing to make your SFI business a success?

I make sure I sign in every day to do my red tabs. This is a must and accrue 11 points each day.
If you are looking to advance you have to add to your down line. This is either purchasing PSA's or CSA's. Depending your title as to how many CSA's SFI will give you at the beginning of the month. It is up to you how many you want to have. It is like purchasing a lottery ticket. Some see the opportunity and some doesn't.
Make sure to connect with your movers and praise them on a job well done. Everyone likes a compliment now and then, right?
Always send out a weekly message to your now line and share some news that they might not be aware of.
I send out e-cards if they requalify as an EA2 or higher. At least, they can see you are on top of your game. I also check their ledger to make sure they are doing their red tabs. If not I will send out an e-card to share some information with them.
When you sign out make sure to add your email address so they can connect you.
Hope this helps.

What's a better investment and why? TCredits or S-Builder Co-op?

I believe the S Builder because you are feeding your down line and if you already have a standing order you are getting 125 Tcredits anyway.
I have won all of my S Builders from the auction and I have gotten a few that have been active. But, like anything, even if you win the auction from bidding on CSA's or PSA's you are still lucky if you find any takers.
Some Will, Some Won't, Next.

An affiliate logs in after a long period of inactivity. Should I acknowledge this? And if so, what should I say?

Great Question. This has happened to me and what I do is send an e-card and share that I noticed they signed in and I am so happy that they are possibly giving SFI another chance.
I also let them know that I have sent several emails to my downline and they might want to check their messages and read up on what they have missed.
I then share that they should save all of my messages for future times. Especially, if they decide to work SFI as a business and start getting a downline that they would need to support. My emails might help them to answer questions they might not have an answer too.
Then I share my favorite quote: "You don't have to be great to get started, but you have to get started to be great." -Les Brown

Why should anyone want to become an SFI affiliate?

Great Question.
For a lot of people they are unemployed and when joining SFI they can do this business on a shoestring.
For others they could be retired and this gives them something to keep themselves busy instead of being bored.
For a lot of others they already have experience with the internet and, being in business for themselves, so this would be a piece of cake for them.
For others they like a challenge and this would be something of interest should they really want to get involved. There are so many ways to make an income with SFI
Those are just a few reasons that I would think someone would want to take a chance with SFI.
Hope this helps!

Hi Florence, Great Question!
I first try to reach them within the first 24 hours of having them assigned to me. If I am successful in reaching them or can see they have been signing in I will maybe send an ecard to share a tip. Or, ask them which road they are wanting to go down: The fast track to EA or the day by day road. Not in a hurry to get to the next step.
Sometimes if I see they are on line I will see if they would want to chat. If no answser then I will leave a small message just making small talk and usually when they come back on line they will leave me a message.
I keep a close watch on my movers. If they did real well in the beginning and did not sign in after a day or so then I might use the personal email to check on them. Other wise, if they are signing in each day I will not bother them until I see a problem. However, I will always send a group message to share whatever and then I know they will be receiving those.
That is what I do and I hope that helps you with your downline.
Good Luck!

Hi Bob,
I am sure a lot of the people joining are not wanting to find people to bring into SFI. When they join they have no clue what they are joining and when it is sharing the business with others this makes them very shy and they start to back off.
When members join they either have the get up and go or they need to be pushed. I try to work with the first bunch because I know I can relate to them more. They get the whole picture of the business and the different ways to earn a commission. If you have to do their work for them that is very hard. I will devote my time to help them but if I see they are not signing in each day or not doing their tabs then I start backing off. I will give a 100% to my downline so long as I feel they are doing the same.
You will know which ones will recruit and which ones won't. Also, when a member of my downline becomes an EA I make a big deal about it because now this means they need to support their downline. And, I share how important it is to help them get off to a good start. When you share with your EA the responsibilities that they have they now realize they also have people depending on them.
I also from day one make sure to share with my downline to save all my emails so when they become an EA and they do not have the answer just maybe one of my emails does have the answer for them. And, of course, I mention to send me an email if they need my help.
Hope this helps!

How can you confirm that your team members are receiving your emails and other messages?

Hi Jan,
That is a great question and one I had thought about also. However, I believe that just maybe the new enrollees do not know they have a message center to go to. I am sure that when they joined the information given to them most likely does not share to check your email. It makes sense since there are so many that join but, after the first day they do not come back.
I have put in a suggestion to ask if there could be some wording during the time of joining to share for them to check their in box. Just maybe we would be able to save a lot of them on that first day they are assigned to us if SFI could share ahead of time about this.
What I have been doing until, hopefully, they accept my suggestion is sending them a message through their personal email. On the genealogy page it shows that if the email is white that stands for inactive but, if it is green then it is active. Hopefully, when they receive their email from their sponsor and we share about their email on SFI they will start signing in and just maybe they will be more excited about the business since they know there is someone to help them.
Hope this helps to answer your question as it is certainly worth a try.
Take care!

Hi Georgina,
Great Question.
I believe if we give 100% to always be there for the movers in our downlines then they will continue to grow and want to duplicate their own actions. I always make sure to check and see if they are signing in each day especially if they are about to become an EA. I let them know that if this is their choice to become a leader then they need to do everythig they can so they will be ready to help those that will be assigned to their group.
When we share about them having a downline and they will need to help their affiliates become successful it gives them a sense of knowing that this business really does work. And, for us, we just ride it out for several more months to let the duplication fall into place and we are on our way to a successful business, also. It's a win/win!
Hope this helps!

How much time a day, approximately, do I need to invest in SFI to build a profitable business?

Hi Dhiraj,
That truly depends on the individual. If you are wanting to take the slow road then I guess maybe a few hours a week, of course, signing in each day to do your red tabs. The other time is for signing in and reading something about the company during the week.
If you are on the average track, which means, signing in each day and while on the site deciding to read something new at that time then 10 hours a week would surfice.
Now, if you are on the fast track then as many hours a day you can spend on the site will pay off in the long run. Yes, I know they say the business only requires a few hours a week and they were not wrong. But, seriously, the longer you are in the business you will realize that your business will move along much faster if you spend as much time as you can by giving it your all.
Not only are you able to read more but the more you read the more you realize that there is something new you can try. And, the list goes on and on. At which time, you will start to see where one of the things you tried because you were giving more time to the business has now increased your commissions sooner. Had you not done this then you would still be waiting for your first commission check.
Hope this helps.
