If you are not good at approaching people face-to-face, know that you are not alone. You have company in the vast majority of people. There is a way out though. Talking to people one-on-one is a skill that can be learned. The following tips do come in very handy to help out:

1. Regularly read self-improvement books about developing such skills.
2. Start by talking to friends and family members.
3. Encourage them to point out your faults if any.
4. Talk to yourself in your bathroom mirror.
5. Learn how to psyche up yourself.
6. Write notes first and study them thoroughly on any subject you want to talk about.

Each form of promotion has its own advantages and drawbacks, but I do recommend you use both as much as convenient to promote SFI and TripleClicks. Many people are not very good at meeting and talking to people one-on-one. For such people, it is better to promote the business globally via the Internet.

If you are sociable and very good at meeting people, you can use the personal method. For both methods, the success rates are mixed depending on your culture and geographical location. On balance, I think promoting SFI and TripleClicks globally via the Internet gives the promoter some edge for the following reasons:

1. You can reach many more people with your promotions than one-on-one prospecting.
2. You can promote around the globe 24/7.
3. You are shielded from the fear of person-to-person promotions.
4. SFI business is largely Internet-based, which makes it easier to promote on the Internet.
5. You have a very wide and vast reach to promote the business.
6. Your promos run around the clock even if you are asleep.
7. You do not need any special marketing skill to promote your business on the Internet.
8. Most SFI marketing tools are designed for use on the Internet.
9. Local promotion limits your horizon, reach and success rate.
10. The Internet is the business hub of the 21st century and beyond. You just have to be there.

I do hope this answers your question.

Good question. In SFI, every affiliate has a very important role to play as an affiliate and that is what makes the business work. To a prospect, you can explain that your most prominent roles in SFI are as follows:

1. You are a business owner.
Your SFI business is yours as an individual business person. You can sell what you want to sell and earn your profits as in all businesses.

2. You are a business partner.
This way, you can sell any product at TripleClicks stores to earn your commissions. These products may actually be owned by other affiliates who are automatically your business partners.

3. You are an internet marketer.
The bulk of SFI business is online. You do your promotions, marketing and actual selling all online. That qualifies you as an internet marketer.

4. You are an internet entrepreneur.
This way, you build your own business online at no cost in collaboration with SFI. You make your own profits and also share from SFI’s profits in the Executive pool. That makes you an internet entrepreneur.

5. You are a business promoter.
This way, you use all the free tools provided by SFI to promote your business online and the businesses of any other affiliates you like.

6. You are a team builder.
This way, you promote your Gateways to recruit PSAs into your downline by way of duplication. These PSAs become your business partners and life customers.

7. You are a team leader.
This way, you lead your team by helping them to develop their businesses and guiding them to succeed in the business.

8. You are a sales representative.
This way, you not only promote products from fellow affiliates, you help to sell them and earn commissions.

9. You are a business motivator.
This way, you lead your team by example. You assist them as best you can. You also communicate regularly with them and encourage/motivate them to build their businesses.

10. You are a resource person.
With the questions and answers you submit in Ask SC forum, you help SFI to build a valuable resource base for the benefit of the whole business and the businesses of all the affiliates.

All these in a nutshell are what all affiliates do in SFI which a prospect will be interested in knowing.

Hope this answers your question.

Shipping is a very important consideration in the business of SFI. It is a very important cost element in the business. It is so important that “free shipping” is at times used as incentive to promote some of the products. If you are an ECA, getting your shipping charges right can play a major role in how well you can do in the business. You can not therefore be too careful in that quest.

To get it right, here is what is best to do. You can approach and talk to international shipping companies like DHL and the like. They are always very glad to talk to potential customers. With the list of all the countries you propose to sell to, these companies can give you their charges by weight and mode of delivery. You can negotiate with them and obtain discounts based on the volume and frequency of business you intend to bring their way. These negotiations will benefit you and your customers around the world. Based on the information you garner, you can settle for the company or companies you may wish to use as shipping agents for your products around the world. That is what should guide you to fix your own charges for shipping on the products you are selling. That to my mind is the best way to go about it if you want to get it right.

Good luck!

Take my word for it; do not rely too much on your sponsor if you want to build a successful SFI business. The relationship between a sponsor and an affiliate in SFI can at best be described as a “forced’ relationship because you had no choice in the matter of who becomes your sponsor or co-sponsor. For that reason, you can at best put up with your sponsors instead of relying heavily on them because SFI business demands that every affiliate must have a sponsor.

The most comfortable way to relate with your sponsor is as a business partner because you both are involved in SFI business as independent business persons. For that reason, you can rely on your sponsor in some limited ways only if you want to build a successful SFI business. Specifically, you can rely on your sponsor for:

1. Regular tips on how to succeed in SFI business.
2. What to concentrate on based on your set goals.
3. Where to get reading/learning information in SFI.
4. What to prioritize at what stage in your SFI business.
5. Where to promote your Gateways free for maximum effects.
6. What to do and what not to do in your marketing campaigns.
7. Where and how to invest your money in the business for maximum benefits.
8. What cooperatives to join and for what purpose.
9. Tips and tricks on how to get what works and what doesn’t.
10. How to set goals and targets for maximum results.
11. How to benefit from the forums.
12. How to benefit from the Trivia Games.

Please note that all of the foregoing is purely advisory from your sponsor. What you eventually do and don’t do is entirely up to you. Ultimately, as an independent business person, the success or failure of your SFI business is absolutely your responsibility and not that of your sponsor. That means you must rely more on your self and your abilities than on your sponsor if you want to build a successful SFI business.

Just rely more on yourself and you will be OK. Best of luck!!

From my own experience, all SFI Gateways if used as prescribed are very effective depending on where and how you are promoting your business. It is therefore very difficult to say categorically which is best. However, taking a very close look particularly as an affiliate for nearly two years now, the “first” Gateway on this link, http://www.sfi4.com/xxxxxxxx/first appears to have a lot going for it for the following reasons.

1. It is highly Search Engine friendly and turns up easily in search results.
2. A click on it opens up a highly effective message right away.
3. Its address bar on your computer invites you to “start a second income with SFI.”
4. The main page tells you that SFI is a company which is “first” with Internet entrepreneurs.
5. It displays to the very second pictures and numbers updates about all new affiliates joining SFI all over the world.
6. Top left corner tells you that in SFI “we aim high, dream big.”
7. The color combination in the page is very attractive and captivating.
8. On same page, you see a brief historical update of SFI as a successful company.
9. The invitation to join FREE is simple, easy to use and irresistible.
10. The page layout is a masterpiece in web page building.
11. Above all, it is result-oriented and it actually yields good results.

These are some of the reasons why I tend to think that the “first” Gateway is best to use while promoting your SFI business.

I hope this answer helps.

If you know what you are doing, an hour a day is an extremely valuable and sufficient time to do a lot in SFI. Many affiliates may do many different things depending on their own priorities in the business. From my own experience, I always advise my affiliates to do the following everyday no matter how pressing their time is.

1. Log in to your site and perform all the “To-Do” tasks on your Dashboard to earn VersaPoints.
2. Read the recent/latest news from SFI.
3. Go to your “Hit Tracking” page and check on the performance of your ads.
4. Read your mails and respond where necessary.
5. Check out the latest additions at TripleClicks.
6. Do a bit of products promotion.
7. Enter for the day’s Daily Grand contest.

The foregoing are the tasks I routinely do which I believe you too can successfully do within an hour each day to promote and grow your SFI business. Good luck!!!
