Hello Natasha Bogdanovic

After joining SFI, one can listen to “Get Started” video by Gery Carson, Read SFI Basics and all the information given in there. They should also read “Launch Pad” Lesson to know what is SFI
But one need not invest big amount of money, as SFI is not going to pay you much unless you have considerable downline and Triple Clicks members.
But if you have gone through the Launch Pad & SFI Basics, you need to concentrate on building your team of

I agree that some affiliates find success with SFI in just weeks, while for others it takes months or years.

The basic reasons are three:

1. Main reason is your commitment & perseverance towards SFI. It you are committed, you will immediately Get Started, login daily. Read SFI Basics, Go through Launch Pad & get connected to your upline & inform him/her about your commitment. Carry out all activities as directed by SFI or your upline

2. Some people may

Hello Alma


Yours is a valid and important question. The length of content in your advertisement is very important. The headlines also play an important role. A headline should be very compelling and should attract your audience. The length of content varies as per place of advertisement:


1. In safe lists & solo Ads:

Here are few points as how to go about it:

1. Before you start setting proper goals for you make sure you set up your standing order worth 1500VPs or more.

2. To set proper goals for you, you need to be practical & realistic.Do not set goals that are beyond your reach.

3. Set small & achievable goals and work towards realizing them. See that you ultimately realize them at the end of the month.

4. Setting proper goals & achieving them may require

Being rejected SFI offers to your family, friends, relatives and acquaintances is a very common phenomena. But should not get disheartened by it. Be successful in SFI yourself first.

1. Acquire a SFI Debit Card & show them the power of SFI. It costs you only onetime fee of $20 or so.

2. Show them your Paypal Account with SFI Commission in it.

3. You can ask your commissions by check. Take a digital scan of your check & send it to your family members, friends,

It’s a good & important question, but you need to be a successful SFI sponsor yourself before you preach duplication.

I am giving a very short & crisp answer to this question:

All SFI affiliates are not needed to be taught duplication till the attain EA*2 status. Free affiliates should be taught to read SFI basic & Launch Pad & log in daily.

You start teaching duplication you your EAs & BTLs as follows:

If You are broke. You are not alone. There are thousands, if not millions like you. Immediately get in touch with your sponsor, next up-lines etc & explain your issue. You will be successful faster.In my opinion only broke with perseverance make Success faster than with guys having lot of money.

Hope it makes sense. (I was too broke & now I am a Bronze Team Leader)

As a new affiliate, how much should I invest in SFI to start earning money every month?

Hi Glory

It depends upon how much you want to earn per month. Your earning also does depend upon the following:

1. Size of your active team viz. number of EAs, BTLs, STLs etc.
2. TC products you are able to sell.
3. Number of ECAs you are able to recruit.
4. Versa Points you are able to earn per month.
5. Investing time in your business is also important. As they say, “Time equals Money”.

Depending upon your situation, financial conditions,

Hello Tanja

As it is said, “A picture is equal to one thousand words”. As you must have noticed that the children learn fast in schools with the help of pictures. Similarly new affiliates are the children of SFI business and could be taught faster with the help of pictures.

But your question is how can you use the new feature of adding images in Stream Post, Blog posts in order to communicate better with your team?

For that, first of all download the required

Dear Ovidio,

You should feel lucky and honored if an old SFI affiliate of yours becomes active again. In the first instant, he/she might not have understood the concept of SFI, or must have been overwhelmed by the information contained in SFI. Now that he/she has taken a re-plunge into the business, do not let this opportunity go by. Do the following necessary actions:

1. Send a welcome message once again. May be he/she did not receive it last time.

2. Send a E-Card
