The answer to this question will be varied because it depends on what level you are hoping to attain and where you are presently e.g whether you are a Team Leader or a new affiliate. A new affiliate needs to focus on the getting started actions, launch pad and Fast Track. Focus on logging in everyday and getting the hang of the business. Once you complete your daily tasks and maintain your Executive Affiliate status each month you can spend your time building a dynamic business and be on your way

You have to be creative. Be honest. Believe in yourself and express your thoughts and ideas and the things you believe in. Work within the perimeter of SFI rules but do not confine yourself to them. Be as original as you can be.

Communicate with those who are successful and learn from them. Believe in yourself and keep positive. Turn all your obstacles into stepping stones. Have a keen eye for detail and opportunities that come your way. Ask questions and do not make assumptions.

SFI is a real business. Your business! When I look at your photo I would expect to see a professional look. That would give me the first impression of you and what you stand for. It tells me whether you are a serious business person or not.

Imagine going for a job interview, and then think of your attire. That is what your photo does for you at SFI. Remember that first impressions are lasting. Your role is to conduct your business in the best way possible and to connect with prospective

Individual and group mailings are both worthwhile and useful. Each has its advantages. It is important and worthwhile that the first piece of communication to your affiliates should be individual. New affiliates need to feel welcome and encouraged. They need support that they have made a good decision.

You can prepare your letters and have them saved so that as you receive a new affiliate the letter goes automatically to that individual. In this way, it does not matter if you have

Once you create duplication in your SFI business you will have success. The model was not designed to make a ton of money quickly. To experience success will take some time. You need to build your team but if your team is not able to teach others the process of duplication then success will be limited.

Duplication builds a strong team. If you learn all about SFI and you get others to join your team you will be able to answer their questions. Then you can demonstrate to them how you are

Avoid anything ambiguous, false or misleading. Keep in mind the ‘golden rule’ – what you want men to do to you, you must also do to them. It takes a lot to be honest in this greedy and hostile world. Ask yourself what would you do if you were in the other person’s situation. Wouldn't you want to know the truth, always? Then you can follow through on your action of giving information.

Don't be selfish. Carefully consider those who are to receive your information. Think of your
