What kinds of contests do your affiliates seem to respond best to?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
This is a very interesting topic. I have launched a contest "Name Our Team Competition" last November on my Leadership Page, even mentioning it several times in my teammail. I thought with a prize of $20 Gift Certificate for the winner with a clever and cool entry, it will attract participation and, as Patik said, wake them up and take notice. The lucky winner could have used the $20 Gift Certificate to kickstart their business. Surprise, surprise, nobody responded and when it ended on December 21 I reckon my contest ended then, but not the world as the Mayan Calender predicted.
I will try again, and see which contest will win them. I will never, ever Give Up!

What is your best way to motivate your downline?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
I try to be an awesome sponsor every which way I can. So motivating my downlines is one of my priorities.
I try to channel my enthusiasm for the business by regular personal communications, sharing valuable hints and tips I’ve come across while reading the posts in the Forum, building their confidence by sharing my own experiences, especially in participating the Pricebender auctions in the TripleClicks.
In addition, I offer incentives such as giving TCredits, $10 Gift Cards, and PSA re-assignment to help them keep the ball rolling nicely.
I celebrate every achievement of my downlines, congratulate them on my Leadership Page, stream post and giving them a great rap in my newsletter.
And most of all, I let them know I care for them and their success by my unstinting support and understanding for what they are going through and my belief that if there’s a will , there’s away for success.

What makes SFI better than other Internet-based income opportunities?

Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
What makes SFI better? For me it's the best internet-based income opportunity there is.
The simplicity of SFI marketing plan is such that anyone anywhere in the world can join free and build a successful internet business. There are only three simple steps that needs to be followed, and those are 1) Become an Executive Affiliate and remain an Executive Affiliate every month; (2) Recruit/sponsor 5 Affiliates following the methods provided by SFI; and (3) Duplicate by teaching these 5 affiliates to do the three steps. There is no need to reinvent the wheel! The SFI extensive training and resources are topnotch. as well as the support and sharing of valuable tips from affiliates all over the world is fantastic. Above all, the SFI Rules of Success provide direction and guidance.

Will moving up my personal rank in SFI help to gain more trust from my downline members and help fuel further growth?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
Definitely! Moving up my personal rank in SFI will help to gain my downline members more trust and belief in SFI business. As one Harold Green once said,"I don't believe in just ordering people to do things. You have to sort of grab an oar and row with them." It's important to walk the walk and talk the talk to show our downlines that they're not alone even if they're on their own.
And like them, I log in daily, visit my homepage, do the basics, do the daily, weekly and monthly actions to earn my VersaPoints, buy/ sell items from TripleClicks, participate in Pricebender auctions,among others. Read tips and posts from other active Affiliates,put in Standing Orders in S-Builder Co-op, and all other activities such as sponsoring Affiliates and ECAs that when duplicated will fuel further growth.
All these activities are what SFI Rules of Success, No. 3 specifically states to lead by example, is all about.

What is the best way to help my affiliates who can't afford to purchase anything?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
I would start by emphasising the importance of Getting Started properly. As with any business there is a period for reading and learning the business procedures, so it is important to read and do the lessons on the LaunchPad and the personalised daily To-Do Lists. These activities are rewarded by VersaPoints.
To help Affiliates earn more VersaPoints, I would remind them to also do the following, if not already done-
. To confirm their registration – 150 VP
. To complete Affiliate Profile – 75 VP
. To whitelist
[email protected] – 100 VP
. To register as an A2A member – 60 VP
. To send SFI Commitment Message to you as their Sponsor – 50 VP
. To read Getting Started FAQs - 50 VP
. To review the marketing methods and aids for generating TripleClicks sales.
It is not compulsory for Affiliates to buy anything, but you can help them by gifting 10 TCredits, or how much you can afford to give them, in order to get them to browse our TripleClicks Store and to help them familiarise themselves on how it works. It is an investment on your part as you are investing not only in their future but most importantly, your success. If there is a will, there is a way.

How do you plan to capitalize on the new S76 (Silver76Pack) product?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
The new S76 (Silver76Pack) is an excellent marketing tool for 2013. I plan to use it (when I get mine in this month's order)to show friends, family and prospects that SFI is a Real Business where one can earn not only monetary profits but also Silver bullions. I want to watch them get silenced when they start to say negative things about SFI, then Silver them by my speech.
What is a good goal to shoot for in SFI this year?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
My goal this year is to teach duplication by passing on to my downlines my PASS principle.
P – Prospecting. We start by making a list of who do we know. Family, friends, work colleagues, acquaintances – they are called “warm prospects”.
A – Advertising. Putting a Standing Order for S-Builder Co-op is the easiest and less expensive way to build SFI business. For just 72 cents a day, (units of S-Builder cost only $22) we can be building a residual income stream.
The great benefit of our co-op is that it allows Affiliates with little funds to participate in large-scale advertising campaigns and share in the results without a significant investment. Other free advertising are also available online.
S – Sponsoring. With Prospecting & Advertising we can then have sign-ups. Sponsoring is vital in building duplication. Refer to The 3 Ultra Simple steps to success, SFI Basics.
S – Selling. Again, with Prospecting & Advertising, sign-ups will occur either as Affiliate, or a customer to our TripleClicks store.

SFI's LaunchPad training provides great information and inspiration. Which of the 30 lessons is the most meaningful to YOU, and why?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
For me,the most meaningful of the 30 lessons in SFI's LaunchPad is Day 28. The Rules of Success. Because no matter how good the methods and strategies SFI provided for us if we do not know the principles behind them, understand and apply them in building our SFI business we will surely fail.
The Rules of Success give us a very clear picture of the outcome if we follow each rule.
So. for me, this is the most meaningful of the lessons in SFI's LaunchPad as it not only provides the route but a clear vision of success.

What's the best incentive to offer new affiliates?
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
First we need to find out the reason why people joined SFI. Mostly the reason would be to earn money, to become wealthy and debt-free, to provide for family's future needs, for personal growth, or to retire in comfort. Whatever the reason, we can tailor the kind of incentive to offer them.
If it is to earn money, quick and easy, we can show them how Triple Clicks work, by earning commission through sales. We need to emphasise that SFI is not a get-rich-quick scheme but needs commitment and hard work to build. We need to help them understand SFI BASICS and SFI Rules of Success; the need to log in daily and visit their homepage and do the daily To-Do lists and other actions for earning VersaPoints. Being an Executive Affiliate on first month, is a great incentive at this point in time.
To become wealthy and debt-free, we show them the road to attaining their goals by leading. SFI provides first class training and support and with proper planning , learning and application of the procedures their goals will be attainable. Teach them the SFI 3 Ultra Simple Basic Steps is A Must.
For personal growth. Becoming a member of A2A and TConnect Page gives Affiliates wonderful opportunity to get to know other Affiliates from around the world, which is personally and financially enriching. It’s a great way to broaden one’s mind and horizon. Recommending they read the Internet Income Course, SFI Rules of Success, SFI BASICS, doing the daily lessons in LaunchPad, as well as participating in ASK SC, SFI Forum and learning what’s new at SFI News. Traing and support provided by SFI is FREE and First Class. TripleClicks store and ECXAs offer lots of e-books and articles on personal and business development.
In summary, show new Affiliates the Big Picture. Success stories of Gery Carson- how he built and developed SFI over many years into what is now the best online business there is, of Bing Obaldo and the many STLs, GTLs, and PTLs in SFI. It is an excellent incentive to give to anyone, not only new Affiliates.

I am online at the Affiliate Center and see that someone just signed up under my link and is online too. What should I do?
Gliceria Pritchard, Aff (Australia)
10/31/2012 12:58 am
Affiliate since: 11/29/2011, Power Rank: 83
I would wait a few minutes while I read the new Affiliate's profile to give me an idea where he/she's coming from so I can personalise my welcome letter. Then I would compose my letter with a warm welcome to SFI and to my marketing team, and offer of assistance as a Sponsor, and a request to send me an e-mail if additional information is needed. To initiate a chat on line can be problematic due to time and language differences.
