This one liner indicates something of value for free and creates a sense of urgency. No obligation takes away any hesitancy to fill out the form with the affiliate's information.
"Limited time offer to learn how to sponsor 1,000s worldwide for "free", while developing with "no obligation" a strong online business."

The most important thing for you to do is to get people to your Tripleclicks Gateway site where they can see for themselves all of the advantages of being a Tripleclicks Member. If you have sold items at Tripleclicks, made a great purchase, or won an auction, etc., give them your testimonial. In order to interest others in what you are involved in, you need to be an active participant. Be a product of the product. You will find your link to your Tripleclicks Gateway site under Reference and in the dropdown box click on Gateway List.

How do you keep affiliates who are yet to earn anything motivated when family and friends are consistently telling them they are wasting their time?

I tell people not to tell their family and friends what they are doing, because everyone does not have an entrepreneurial mindset. To create a successful business, you need to find other entreprenuers. You can do that by advertising. The most important thing is to be persistent and NEVER EVER give up.
How much should an SFI affiliate spend on advertising each month?

What you spend on advertising depends on what you can comfortably afford. Remember that there is also plenty of free advertising. Free advertising takes time and attention to detail such as using key codes so that you know which ads got results. When you place paid ads, use key codes as it will help you to spend your advertising dollars wisely. You will want to go back and advertise at any place that has worked for you again. Keep a working list of those places.
Do you need to have your own website (if so, why) or are the Gateway websites provided by SFI adequate?

The Gateway websites work fine and you can key code your ads which is important so that you know where you are getting the best response from your ads. If you are getting a good response, you can advertise there again and again.
How should you advise your downline--who have never run a business before--how to proceed with advertising?

First, I don't recommend going to friends, family and co-workers unless you already know they are entrepreneurial. Oftentimes, they do not have an open mind and have learned the only way for them to make money is to get up, go to work, come home, get up, go to work, come home. If they don't have a dream, a lot of times they will only try to talk you out of yours by being negative. Go to them after you are earning the income you think will get them interested.
The best thing you can do is to start advertising. S-Builder Co-op is good, but not enough. You will need to learn where to advertise and you can only do that by advertising. Use key codes for your ads so you will know what places work best and you can go back there. Once you learn of those places, tell you affiliates who are needing help, where there are good places to advertise.
Find advertising by going to the Search Engines, such as Google, Bing,etc. and typing in ezines, text ad exchanges, free classifieds, lotto sites, newspaper ads, etc. Free advertising does work, but you need to keep after it. Paid advertising doesn't mean you have to do expensive ads. You can have good results with $10 ads.
The most important thing is to be persistent. Put together a short ad that will peek interest and create urgency, to get people to your site. Start advertising as much as possible. Remember that massive action gets results. And most important of all, NEVER EVER, give up.

It is important to remember that SFI is a business opportunity and you are building a residual income. That is income you will be paid over and over from a sale made one time. That is a very powerful type of income. It is income you can build on and be paid month after month, year after year. Does it take effort? Of course it does, but it is well worth it.
SFI is not a "get rich quick scheme" and if you have been around the internet very long, you will know that the "get rich quick schemes" are not around for very long. They either run out of money, are mismanaged and go out of business, or get shut down.
It takes time to build a real business and a constant effort. It is important to be persistent. Remember a little saying that I learned a long time ago. If it's to be, it's up to me. Then NEVER EVER give up. Advertise as much as possible and utilize the three foot rule of telling everyone about your online business. Be involved, focused, and excited. Others will feel that excitement and want to be excited too.
You will succeed. Believe in what you are doing and just "do it".

Why is it important that SFI affiliates shop at TripleClicks?

When you shop at Tripleclicks, you have firsthand experience that you can tell others about. There is nothing more powerful than your own testimonial. There are some great bargains at Tripleclicks and some great items.
I found a great gift for a friend. It was the perfect item that I probably would never have found anything like in a store and I found it sitting at home at my computer. I might add that he loved the item. It was one of a kind.

Studying the launchpad is important and even more important is going through the To Do List every day and earning your points.
However, and this may not be for everyone, what I did was this. I started advertising and sponsoring my first week in SFI. Did I know everything? Absolutely not. My downline made me learn everything by asking me questions. I had to look up the answers when it was something I didn't know.
I am not a person that learns from reading. I learn from doing, so if you are a person like me, just go out there an start advertising right away. We have a great business. Don't be afraid to jump in with both feet. You can learn as you go. You don't have to be an expert before you start building your business.
