Earning a three, four or five figure income at SFI is surely considered success at SFI. However, success at SFI begins by showing commitment, thinking long term and being results orientated. Half the battle is won if you have the above qualities.
Doing little things each day such as, reading a marketing method, or marketing aid or placing a free classified ad is a success point.
If you have made a commission for the month, that itself is a success.
If you have built a team to work on, that is also a success.
Success need not necessarily be tied down to monetary gains. If you made some progress in knowledge or made a contribution at the SFI forum, that is a part of success.
Success can also be tied down to the goals set at SFI. If you have achieved a goal then that is a success.
Success in SFI is just the beginning of the battle. Success has to be consistent and has to be maintained throughout. Quest for success never ends with knowledge and earnings.

Why is creating duplication in your SFI business important?

Duplication refers to affiliates in my SFI team duplicating my actions, such as sponsoring new affiliates, making sales, mentoring prospective leaders etc. If you can achieve a high degree of duplication in SFI, you can “be in a hundred places at one time” and able to grow my SFI business rapidly through the efforts of others.
Duplication is the most important aspect of my SFI business. The three basic duplication process is:
1. Become an Executive Affiliate.
2. Recruit 5 Affiliates using the different sponsoring methods.
3. Teach your 5 Affiliates to do these same three steps.
Duplication is what creates wealth in my SFI Business. When my team of affiliates duplicate my actions, our commissions will soar. If you want to create a major monthly income stream you must employ duplication. Duplication is the key for your access to a major income. Building a solid downline is a very important core of duplication. If you don’t have a solid downline, you will probably keep struggling every month in trying to increase significantly your income.

Should I encourage or discourage my PSAs who want to become Team Leaders right away?

The decision to become Team Leaders will depend on a number of factors like budget, having a team, progress at SFI etc.
There is no necessity to be a Team Leader unless you actually have a team. The benefits you gain as a Team Leader are derived from the override commissions i.e. Matching VP you earn from your team members. So if you don’t have a team yet its best to focus of recruiting affiliates and teaching them to become EAs and Team Leaders themselves i.e. duplication.
If you have the budget to qualify as a Team Leader and take advantage of the monthly CSA shares then by all means, as you could be earning income from your CSAs.
If your PSAs show potential in their early stages of joining SFI then they should be encouraged to become Team Leaders.

The best way to set up an advertising co-op for my affiliates is to use SFI Co-op Manager. You need to accumulate at least 1500 VersaPoints each month to use the co-op tool. You can also earn 100VPs for setting up an advertising co-op for your team. SFI provides you with the platform for the co-op and all you have to do is plug in your co-op participants and collect payments.
For example you can create a co-op with shares at $50 each. You put in $50 yourself and you get 40 members of your downline to participate for $50 each. When you run your ads, you’ll have $2000 in advertising working for you. Payments can be collected by checks, money orders of Paypal.
Look up you genealogy report to select the affiliates you would like to invite to participate in the co-op. Provide the necessary explanation and the cost involved to participate.
You can create as many co-ops you want as there is no limit. There is no expiration dates on the co-ops you set up. Affiliates will be rotated among the participants as they flow in.
