It happened often to face negativity among circle of friends, close relatives and families, when promoting business opportunity like SFI. I used to feel down when I get rejection. I started reading books about people who refuse to be overcome by any obstacles that lie on their path towards their goal. One great example of being successful is the famous Thomas Edison, an American inventor and businessman, who developed many devices that greatly influenced life around the world like the electric light

My greatest challenge was and is: finding affiliates, who are passionate in building a network of teams, consist of affiliates who are eager to learn and discover their full potential of being a SFI affiliate and to become successful.

This is a challenge that constantly drives me to give my best whatever I do:

- Giving support to downlines

- Continuously expanding my knowledge base by reading and reviewing SFI Tools and Resources, including IAHBE’s latest update

In my opinion, there is no 100% of sign ups that would convert to become and remain active in SFI. Sponsoring is a numbers game. You have no control of people who are signed up and whatever their motives in signing up. Are they looking for quick money or are they self motivated to commit in a business opportunity like SFI?

If you are doing your own advertisement, include the following points/filters to get your target of quality affiliates:

This is a question of how to present SFI before people, who have negative experience with online businesses. With this kind of people, they’ll get turn off easily because of their negative experience. Consider your approach carefully when presenting SFI before them. In my opinion, I won’t even talk to them about the online business, I will just follow through the topic of conversation, when talking to them and if circumstances presents in that situation, here’s what I’ll do:

How can you advise and help new PSAs when you are new to SFI and just getting started yourself?

If you have PSAs and you are new to SFI, I would recommend redirecting your PSAs questions to your upline,SFI support, Forum or A2A. Turn to people in SFI community who have experience. It is only good to give advice to your downline, if you are 100% sure on it.

You want to pass on true and correct information to them, because you want your whole team to succeed. It may take some time to learn and understand the core of SFI business and then become a good adviser.

What should you say to your PSAs when they say they are going to quit because they are putting out more than they are receiving?

How to deal with your PSAs who are thinking of quitting for spending more than what they are receiving?

- Establish dialogue between you and your PSAs. Organize an online meeting using Facebook, Skype or other social media available on the web. Direct communication is very effective in this kind of situation, where you can meet your PSAs personally online. You do need to consider the best time for everyone to meet. You’re not only getting to know your PSAs closer but establishing close

Participating in the Knockout Trivia is fun and challenging. It is a game where entrants are presented with trivia questions. Each correct answer will lead you to the next round. If you outlast your fellow players, you’ll win the Zackpot.

An important aspect of making recommendations or getting your affiliates to do something is how you relate to them. Have you gained the trust of your affiliates? Have you been actively supporting them, no matter how trivial it may seem to you? These

There is a way to present SFI even when you’re not good in talking or shy in approaching people.

Consider the following thoughts before you attempt to talk to people about SFI:

-Think about the reason why you join SFI.

- Have you read and understand the SFI BASICS, LAUNCHPAD or the ultra-simple 3-step plan?

- Are you performing your To-Do List consistently, participating in SFI Forum, communicating with your upline or a2a friends?

When looking for TC products which are great for international members you need to take into consideration the following points to answer your question including the why:

- Monthly budget

You need to operate your SFI business effectively and economically. You can’t overspend and in the end you’re setting up your SFI business unprofitably.

- Long term goal

A key element in reaching your long term goal is to establish your SFI business profitably. You

The best mentor would be your sponsor and uplines. They can share their leadership experience in building a team, their expertise in dealing with affiliates needs depending on their situation. It seems that it is a common occurrence about sponsors not responding to their PSAs needs. This could be due to some reasons like sponsor is also new to SFI or sponsors who have large downlines doing all the work in team building and so on.

Actually the Duplication process involves sponsor teaching
