Hi Odair,

There are many different ways you can earn income.
Since this is your business, I suggest that you work at it daily and use all the different ways to receive commission.
Some of these ways to work are Advertising SFI and TripleClicks, TripleClicks Sales and Sponsoring Affiliates. You can find many free/paid advertising websites.
Must reads are: Read the Training, Expert Reports, Strategies for referring ECAs, Internet income course, Affiliate tips and Ask Gery.

Hi Patricia,

You have to make that decision as to whether you have enough PSA's to reassign or not.
Personally, I've reassigned PSA's to a new affiliate when I didn't have many.
I did this because it was an affiliate that always asked questions and I felt would be a great leader and I was right.
He was able to relate to the affiliates better than I could.
Besides, whenever you reassign an affiliate, it always comes back to you in gratitude and profits.

Good question Diana,

If an affiliate says they are going to stop working their SFI business, because they are spending more than they are receiving. It must be explained that this is not unusual. Any new business owner needs to have some investment and it always takes time and hard work to make any money on a new business.

One of the most powerful features of SFI is it's completely free to become an affiliate, and there's NEVER a requirement to purchase anything. Did you know

Hi Clarence,
There are many good marketing tools with SFI and this is why it's such a good company to work for.
Even if you are unemployed or underemployed, you can work on building your very own business with very little cost.
There are the e-cards, flyers, and banners for TripleClicks or SFI that are there for anyone to use for free. Plus, we're given where to advertise and blog for free also.

I believe the most valuable and best tool is the Wave3 Starter Kit and membership.

Hi Ogechukwu,

I believe you will have to research what will be accepted in your country.
Many countries will not allow some of the choices that are available.

Do you know affiliates, have a2a friends or is your upline from your country?
I suggest that you inquire what they have found is the best way for them.

Since you are from outside the United States, unless you have a bank account in the US, a checking account is not an option.
To understand this

Hi Karmen,

Here is how I start all my welcome letters to new affiliates. I also ask them to contact me.

"This is NOT an internet scam, but a real job, SFI started in 1998 and is the only internet company I've found, that offers so much for free.

You are GIVEN your own business without spending money to join or having to invest a lot of money that you would have to with any other business.

Let's imagine you're an owner of a new brick and mortar

Hi Junnel,

This is the perfect time for new affiliates to start working with SFI.
There are many people looking for ways to become a success on the internet.
It's easy to tell this, by all the internet "get rich quick scam" e-mails being sent.
Your chances are as good as anyone's to become a success with SFI.
It depends on what you learn from the training and whether you use that training and the tools that are provided by SFI. You can find the training

Hi Cyndi,

Having been in advertising for more than 10 years, I've learned that people who give you a negative response, usually don't understand what you are doing or trying to show them.
It's hard to be rejected and many of your friends and family will probably not understand.

My advise is to talk to them, if they aren't interested, just walk away with a smile.
When you start becoming successful, you can go back to show them your website, your new car, or your

Hi Michael,

My greatest challenge with SFI is explaining to the affiliates on my team that this is THEIR business that must be worked daily.
Since there are so many who sign up thinking they can set back and the money will come rolling in from somewhere. I'm not sure where they think the money will come from if they don't work for it.

There's no secrets to success. You can do it, but you must be willing to read, learn and work your businesses each day. It takes passion,
