Hi Sanja!
To make a decision you need to be informed and understand what you are going in. You need to understand what is SFIPPA and how it works.
In SFIPPA program, you'll generate money by getting prospective affiliates to sign up using the SFIPPA sign-up page. The affiliates that sign up won't be your PSAs. They get distributed among other affiliates within SFI.
The amount you earn per sign-up is determined by the activity of your sign-ups and is once of. If they are inactive, you

Hi Georgina,

1. Each time that your PSA places an order at TripleClicks.com, you earn 45% of the CV.

2. You can earn even more shares via Matching VP from your PSA. The important thing is that in order to earn matching VP, you must hold the rank of Team Leader, maintain your SFI Leadership Page, and also maintain a minimum 3-star Sponsor Rating (not applicable w/less than 5 ratings).
The earnings are as follows:
BTLs receive matching VP on all EA2s in their downline

Hi Jan!
1. As far as I know. The confirmation that you get after sending a message that says your message has been sent, confirms that it is sent. If it is not sent, it says your message could not be sent.
2. If you send a message to your team, you also get it. That is also a confirmation.
3. Even if there is a problem with their email box, it also sends them in their SFI mail box which doesn't fail.

Note Well. If your PSA/CSA doesn't respond, it doesn't mean they did not

Hi Bob!
As a Team Leader, you duty is to help your PSA to achieve what they came here for by supporting and motivating them. When they win, you win.

The best thing that you can do, is to check their profiles and see why they joined SFI. After seeing that, show them how can recruiting and duplicating help them to achieve what they came here for. They have a will to achieve what they came here for.

Show them the benefit chart and the VP Matching.

If you show them,

Hi Alvin!
For me, there is only one best place to get answers about SFI. That place is the Search Box on your top right corner of your page. This Search Box is like Google Search. It has all SFI answers. When you put your question there, it directs you to where you'll find your answer. It may be Forum, Ask SC, Support, etc. You get your answer same time.
Since your question is about places.The the best places to get answers about SFI are as follows in their order:
1. The search box

Hi Vilim,
SFI has been around for more than 15 years. In this time, they manage to get experience. They are aware of people who are new at SFI and in marketing. That is why they have all tools, marketing methods and marketing aids.
1. The quickest way to help your PSA is to go to the forum and ask the SFI community. You will get you reply within few seconds or minutes.
2. When you get a PSA or CSA, SFI sends you a message to let you know that you have somebody new under you. With that

Many affiliates seem only interested in the Daily To-Do list. How can I motivate them to do other activities?

Hi Daphne!
The best way to motivate your affiliates to do other activities besides the Daily To-Do list, is to do those activities yourself. After doing them, share with them what you have learnt, gained, achieved, etc. by doing those activities. If you earned badges, tell them also. Also tell them the importance of earning badges.
I hope this will motivate them.
Thank you.

Hi Wendy-Ann
SFI has been around for more than 15 years and SFI is pro-active.
SFI has planned for such things from long ago. For you to go on a vacation you need to plan your things. Failing to plan is planning to fail. What you must do before going is:
1. To maintain your SFI position.
a. Click 'My Account" on your home page. Then towards the bottom of the page, you'll find 'Vacation Mode: Off and On'. You click on On, so that you won't lose your Daily Versapoint Streak

Hi Florence,
The best way to support and motivate your team is to deal with each person separately. People are not the same. As a leader, you must know your team. Even if you sent them PSA Mailer, CSA Mailer, or Genealogy Group Mailer. You must also check their VP Ledgers and sent them individual messages according to their VP Ledgers. Support them and motivate them accordingly.
