To qualify for PTL you need 6000 or more Versapoints for the month. Out of the 6000VPs, 1500 min/2000 max from sales/purchases. The rest of the VPs constitute Action Versapoints.

The two most important areas to focus on is sponsoring and duplication across the board. Sponsoring and duplication has to be relentless.

Training of PSAs plays a major role in the sponsoring and duplication efforts.
Train your PSAs to become EA2 and Team Leaders. Bottom line is to teach them how to earn money.

The road to PTL comprises building a team of EA2 and Team Leaders.
Team Leaders should focus on recruiting affiliates and teaching them to become EAs and Team Leaders themselves.

As long as you are an EA2 you can earn:
100VP for each of your PSAs each month who are at least an EA2
150VP for each of your PSAs each month who is a BTL
200VP for each of your PSAs each month who is a STL
250VP for each of your PSAs each month who is a GTL
300VP for each of your PSAs each month who is a PTL

If you can consistently maintain a pool of at least 40 EA2s each month, some of whom will become team leaders then your PTL rank will be a long term one.

It all boils down to sponsoring, training and duplication.

Qualifying for the rank of Team Leader maybe easy for some and difficult for others. A host of factors are involved such as budget, time, knowledge of SFI business, commitment, etc. However with some planning and consistency there is actually no secret in attaining the rank of Team Leader. Some of the steps involved for qualification is appended below.

VERSA POINTS
For BTL you need 3,000 to 3,999 VPs (1500 min/2000 max from sales/purchases. Leadership page must be maintained with a minimum of 3-star sponsor rating. For STL, GTL and PTL the VPs required are more with higher rankings. It’s not too difficult really to maintain BTL with some investment and a couple of active PSAs.

TO-DO LIST
The TO-DO List is the backbone for Team Leader qualification. By performing the daily/weekly/monthly actions consistently half the battle is won. Close to 500 action VPs can be obtained monthly at TO-DO List. If you have a downline with a few EA2 and Team Leaders it’s easy to hit another 500 action VPs for support.

SPONSORING
Sponsoring PSAs is the most important aspect for team leader qualification. Team Leaders can earn unlimited action versa points for EA2 and above PSAs. TLs earn 100VPs every month for each PSA who remains EA2 thereafter, 150VPs for BTL, 200VPs for STL, 250VPs for GTL and 300VPs for PTL support.

STANDING ORDERS
Standing Orders ensures you don’t fall below versa points level you wish to maintain. A basic standing order ensures 1500 sales VP. A standing order for 125 TCredit gives your 100 action VPs each month. In addition if the 125 TCredits is used at Pricebenders auctions you get another 125 action points. The maximum bonus VP at Pricebenders is 500VPs per month.

MISCELLANEOUS ACTION VPs
Action VPs can also be earned at ASK SC, product reviews, contests, reassigning affiliates, distributing gift certificates and ECA referrals.

It’s quite easy to qualify for Team Leader with some investment and a growing active downline. However it can be a struggle for some with limited budget and an inactive downline.

Affiliates should be advised that the sky is the limit as far as earning potential is concerned but they have to focus on a long-term basis and lay the groundwork before they can reap the rewards.

Affiliates should be told that their sponsors and upline team can guide them to be successful at SFI but don’t expect quick results.

Oftentimes new affiliates are overwhelmed and lost simply because they did not get a good understanding of the basics. They should be encouraged to follow the structured steps in the learning process.
New affiliates should be told to focus on SFI Basics and not move to other areas until they have fully understood the SFI Basics.

Then they move on to the LaunchPad “getting started” series. They should adhere to one lesson a day in order get a systematic understanding of the concepts.

A good way of encouraging affiliates is issuing them with a Gift Certificate. This can be done at your Genealogy Report. If the Gift Certificate is not redeemed the funds will be returned to your TC account
.
Free participation in co-op is another way to encourage affiliates. A couple of PSA sign-ups will certainly encourage them to perform.

Re-assigning affiliates under them is a great way to encourage them. When you offer a gift certificate, free participation in co-op, or re-assigning of affiliates under them you are clearly trying to help them be successful.

Rewarding affiliates with T-credits is also an incentive to encourage them to perform.

Tell your affiliates not to quit as persistence always pays off.
