I see that there are ECAs in my local area who have not yet listed any products. How can I/we encourage them to become active ECAs?

They are not active probably because of a variety of reasons but I suspect that the main reason why they have not listed any products as yet is because they have not yet fully appreciated the potential and benefits of listing with TripleClicks.

I would suggest that you try and get all the local affiliates to connect with these ECAs indicating that we are ready to support and promote them and their products. The ECAs can see the connections for themselves.

They are already in

Regardless of what personal characteristics and skills we have - all can succeed with SFI if we are open and be receptive to learning new things and to personal development.

First we need to have a goal or a destination, where we want to be or what we want. We then work out a strategy or a plan on how to get there. This should identify the skills we need to get there and our own personal characteristical needs. What we do from here on depends largely on each individual.

By Commitment and Dedication. That is how you get the maximum benefits of being an SFI Affiliate.

Your positive attitude towards working hard for yourself and supporting your team of affiliates will enable you to achieve financial security with SFI. This of course is the ultimate benefit of SFI.

Be loyal to yourself, to SFI and to your team.

When you set your goals for yourself and your team, be single minded about it. Apply yourself with diligence and with patience.

The biggest barriers that all international members are faced with are the currency exchange and shipping charges.

There is little that can be done about the currency exchange but a lot can be done to reduce shipping charges. That is why the following products are ‘great for international members.’

- All products that are delivered digitally such as e-books, marketing products, digital services such as website building, online training etc.. Anything that does not

The short answer here is for you to Lead your Team and be an Awesome Sponsor/Co Sponsor.

Always remember that your team members are all real people, with dreams and aspirations and most likely loved ones who may be dependent upon them.

They have joined SFI for a variety of reasons but if you look at their profiles you will see that it is most likely 'to get out of debt' 'to be wealthy' 'improve my standard of living' etc.. These all have one thing in common, they want to

For a start, go to https://www.sfimg.com/Support/Solution?id=191295&referrer=search

Have a very good read of the information contained therein on how to be an awesome sponsor, then apply those when dealing with your PSAs. Start applying them regularly and soon it will become second nature to you.

I believe that one of the most important things to bear in mind at all times is that your team members are people. They are just like all of us. We all have our pride, we need

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?

Recruiting hundreds of new PSAs each year is a great goal so long as you are able to cope with SPONSORING them: teaching them, encouraging and motivating them.

Not all those who you recruit will be active PSAs and we all know that a large percentage of them will do nothing. Recruiting can be an expensive activity, financially and time wise, so there is a need to strategize to achieve your goals.

I recommend that you look for those workers who will become EAs or higher and

I am not very good at talking to people. How can I talk to them about SFI or TripleClicks in a simple and easy way?

The key is in your own words 'simple and easy' Keep it simple and easy.

I would recommend that you 1st explain what SFI is and what TripleClicks is. You cannot explain one without referring to the other.

The aim here is to be brief and simple.

Tell the people that you talk to that SFI is the 'mother company' that owns an online store called TripleClicks.

Explain that our role is primarily to be sales people and promoters of the store. If the people

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

The short answer to this question is YES.

As long as they have not opted out of the system just keep on connecting with them. Even if they dont respond to your emails, just keep on sending them.

Many people who sign up remain inactive for weeks and months only to become active at a later date. The reasons for this are many and varied: not knowing what to do, fear, family circumstances - procrastinating, busy with work etc..

I personally signed up and then because

My pick is the 'SFI BASICS.'

I know that strictly speaking, it is not part of the Launchpad lessons but it is the most important thing that all Affiliates need to learn. The Basics. We need to be reminded of it from time to time getting ourselves focused on our business. Our core business.

If I have to pick which Launchpad is best, then I would have to say the one for Day 3 ‘Are You On The "Anti-Wealth Plan"?’ This lesson for me really sets the tone of what
