I have heard about Team Leaders with groups numbering in the tens of thousands! What do they do differently to build such a huge downline?

There are actually Team Leaders who have hundreds of thousands in their group. And there are more of them than you might think.

Granted... the majority are not currently active, but enough are to make a very nice income. And... older and previously inactive affiliates frequently come back and are ready to work hard and become successful. Timing and being ready is extremely important to most affiliates. That's why we never totally give up on inactive affiliates.

I provide my Team with encouraging messages that helps them better understand the multiple avenues to earn income with SFI and TripleClicks. These include advising them specifically how to make EA and Team Leader status every month with either no or minimal expense.

I also provide them with specific details on how to use marketing strategies which I've used successfully over the years which allows them to duplicate my efforts.

I personally respond to every single Email and Team

I'm making money with SFI which is an online Home Based Business and has been paying affiliates since 1998, has an A+ Better Business Bureau rating, over 1 million affiliates worldwide, over 65,000 products for sale in their TripleClicks store to purchase, advertise, market and promote and earn commissions... No selling is required since the products sell themselves as we refer and enroll active affiliates.

I think the TripleClicks TCards are a great marketing tool. To whom would you give the cards to and why?

First off find all the Unemployment offices within 50 miles and post and hand them out there... also leave them under the wiper blades of all cars in the parking lot.

Naturally you'll give them to all the people you know.

Next post them on Bulletin Boards at all college and universities within a 50 mile radius. It best to go to the campus employment offices where most have a board next to their office entrance.

Post them at restaurants, laundry mats, grocery stores

http://translate.google.com/ is the address for google translate. Copy and paste message into box[s] and do the same from the results and you can speak too, and understand worldwide contacts. To online novices- copy/paste by highlighted text with rt mouse click and hold as you scan/copy text. Then hit CTRL + C on blue shaded area [you've copied] and then CTRL + V to paste/place message where you want

Never, Never, Never give up on anything great or small and is important to you.

That is a paraphrased quote from one of the greatest leaders in the history of our world.

I am not Internet savvy and have no clue about setting up a Website. Should I get a VeryVIP Hosting package or what other options are good?

If you're looking for LONG TERM online income success with SFI and even other legitimate work at home/ home business work sources... then having your own website will be essential to having your own BRAND. Most all of the best domain registrars and hosting companies have "user friendly" programs to help everyone easily develop and design an cost effective website.

Getting familiar with the program and how to actually make some money within your first month is important and a stepping stone to success. The Basics and Launch Pad series are essential to learn how to work the program. It's a "step by step" which new affiliates should take notes on anything not understood. Those notes and questions can be answered by contacting a sponsor or upline for help. The SFI forum will also provide help and support to detailed questions. If you're ore of a visual
