First, Bensaad, in order for one to be a SUCCESSFUL student in SFI, one must understand the importance of adhering to his/her DAILY exercises such as reviewing his/her LAUNCHPAD exercises, examining the ALERTS submitted from Corporate (SFI), participating in "ASK SC" and the Forum in order to gain valuable information that may answer many of the questions he/she may have.

Being a SUCCESSFUL student also requires 'true' patience and dedication to the tasks at hand, such as paying

Greetings Joe, and I truly like your question!

If national statistics are accurate, most Senior Citizens, particularly those retired, don't have much financial resources to live a true "QUALITY of LIFE" before or after they retire. Make this one of your focuses when trying to "attract Senior Citizens to SFI!"

Also, many senior citizens today are concerned with "INACTIVITY" before, during and/or after retirement. They don't like the idea of simply

Good Day Rosafilipina,

If you are an Executive Affiliate, or any one of the advanced level Team Leaders, your position (Relationship), in my opinion, should be explained as such.

Through SFI, you own and operate a Home-Based Business, and you are not restricted by territory or boundaries. Your business goes where the "free-market" flows. You are your own boss, free to pursue your dreams, each day, everyday, answering to no one but yourself, your Downline and the family

The simple truth is, do everything you request them to do!

Keep feeding them information that will keep them active, such as signing on each and everyday and working their "TO-DO List"; playing Eager Zebra Games for both enjoyment & relaxation, and to help sharpen their wits, as well as possibly winning large quantities of TCredits, VirsaPoints and MRP's for building their business.

Show them the benefits they can receive by promoting and selling TripleClicks products

How do you prepare your affiliates for their second month in the business?

An important question, but easily answered!

Preparing your affiliates for their second month in business, is to first determine what they have learned in their first month. How you do that is to simply ask them. For instance, you could suggest that they email you explaining their feelings on how they feel about the SFI Program to that point. Include questions like:

1. Are you satisfied with SFI's overall Program so far?
2. Do you believe the products in your TripleClicks

Hello Nkwekiti,

In answering your question, "Why should I invest in SFI?" Let me plainly say, ...

With no investment of time and money on your part, ask yourself, "How successful

Good Day Janet,

Take it from experience, you can always "encourage" your affiliates (downline, team) with words of encouragement, but to make them "stay active" well, that's something altogether different. What you must first take into consideration is the "built-in" desire of each individual in your downline. That "built-in" desire can be seen by his/her daily activity. Monitor them daily, if possible, and construct periodic emails with words of

Hi Khalida,

I've been with SFI for 6-years now. Since that time, I've seen members come and go. I've had downline members accumulate as many as 1,200 VirsaPoints in their first day, and become inactive the following day. I guess you get the point. Fact is, there's really not much you can do to keep members from going inactive. What I continue to do is what I'm suppose to do, and that is to communicate with them often; Offer my assistance to them often; motivate them as best I can often!
