There is no problem becoming an EA during first month. But the problem is on the next months.

If you are broke here is my suggestion for you to maintaining your EA status.

1. Earn your daily, weekly and monthly VP.
2. Try to answer Ask SC
3. Always join Daily Grand.
4. Towards the end of the month you divide the number of VP you need to complete your 1500 VP by 102. This is the number of 1TC pack that you need to buy. Where will you get the money to buy? Here

Is it worth it to keep sending supportive emails to PSAs and CSAs who have 0 VP and been inactive for weeks or months?

Let me share the process of Duplication so that you can see the importance of not neglecting anyone in your organization even those who are not active for months.

First we find affiliates - The reality that all of us experience is it's difficult to get them sign up. So once they sign up you are one step closer to duplication.

Second, among those who signed up only few will be come active and will sustain being active. Majority of them will be idle. BUT some of the idle people

When I encounter people who are skeptical when I introduce SFI, I don't usually force the issue.

Usually when I am talking to him face to face I just open my SFI account and show him around what I got. Then he/she will start asking interesting questions, and usually end up signing-up.

Therefore my advice is you make SFI business work first for you by concentrating on the two main success factors, namely, affiliates and personally earned VP. It's easier to convince skeptics

Very relevant question because more than half of those who really want to earn in SFI are feeling discouraged because they are getting nowhere with SFI.

In I follow two principle in giving advice to my affiliates.

1. Concentrate on the two main success factors. Affiliates and personally earned VP. Finding affiliates is number 1 in my list and agenda when I am mentoring. I discuss with them how find affiliates both paid and free. Without affiliates it's quite impossible to succeed

Nice question, because it got me excited to share what I've learned in my 16 months with SFI. I hope you will find this valuable.

1. I learned that affiliates is the KING here at SFI. Never stop finding affiliates and find them as fast as you can. If you will not find affiliates in your first few months, sooner or later you will quit SFI. And if you will stop finding affiliates even if you already have few who are working, sooner or later your SFI business will start to go down.

2.

On the first day that I joined SFI I spent more than 10 hours finding out how can I earn from SFI.

I look in the compensation plan and study the sources of income. I traced all the factors that will contribute to my goal of earning.

I found out that there are 2 major factors that would lead to finally earn my dreamed income.

1) Active affiliates
2) Earning Versa Points.

But of these two no. 1 is the most important. This become my greatest challenge

What would be a better goal and why? Sponsor hundreds of new PSAs every year or teach a smaller number of EAs to each develop EAs themselves?

It is not either or, but these two are all part of the process of building solid foundation in SFI.

let me explain.

In internet affiliate marketing we should embrace the fact that only 0.1 to 5 percent of our recruits will become active. It's a number game.

So having a large number of affiliates is the first step to have few numbers who will become active and become an EA. So do not neglect this part you need hundreds or even thousands of affiliates before you can

Actually both are important but since I feel that Doreen wanted me to choose then I will choose the initial contact.


Here are the reasons why:

1. Whom are you going to follow-up if you don't have initial contact? hehehehe.. this philosophical but true. Let's face, initial contact is the head and follow-up is the tail.

2. Really, first impression last. - with the kind of business we have (online) where 90% percent are scam, we should not present SFI business

In whatever we do here at SFI, specially spending or we call it investment, we should be able to see its connection to our goal in joining SFI which is "Income".

There should be a potential returns when we give away gift certificates, you should count it as part of your investment.

Therefore, for me, I only give gift certificate to those who have the capacity and ability to move forward in their SFI business.

Here are some qualities of person who have potential

Although they have the same purpose, that of getting affiliates but their methods are totally different.

Text Ad Exchanges is run by certain website and you sign up to read ads and in return you also promote your own ads, while Safelist is totally under your control. You carefully collect email address from people who would agree to receive email from you and ads is sent through email.

Text Ad exchanges is less effective for several reasons.

1. People in ad exchanges
