If I had to choose between the three I would make a case for the TCredits. At a cost of $36.25 for 125 TCredits gives you the needed 1500 VP. These TCredits are a form of currency at TripleClicks that can be used in a variety of ways. Each TCredit has a value of $.29 so they retain the same per dollar value. You can use them to buy products at your TripleClicks Store and bid in the Price Benders Penny Auction. You can even give them away as incentives and rewards.

The best way to convince someone is to prove it can be done by doing it yourself well ahead of them. In advance of that you can inform them that you see others who are earning substantial incomes and that is good enough for you to stick with it. Be inspired and show your enthusiasm and it might spark their interest toward becoming a member of your team. If they appear reluctant because of failures in other affiliate or MLM programs let them know it is not like anything else you've ever tried before

For a variety of reasons either way can be equally better because it depends on the situation and mode of communication. Other factors would include the individual to whom you are communicating, your knowledge about SFI and TripleClicks and your ability to communicate effectively by spoken and/or written/printed words.

You should be well prepared to provide both brief yet an effective amount of information or lengthy and detailed information. Open lines of communication is of key importance

Is it a good idea to reassign your PSAs to someone in their own country?

It would depend on what you wish to accomplish. You should do what is best for your team. If you have several PSA's from the same country and one of them is doing very well but the others are not then by all means reassign as many of them as you wish. Once reassigned maybe a few will take off and become successful. You should keep the desired number(5)of your top performers directly under you.

The only way that someone will become serious about SFI and go on to be successful is they must want it as bad as they need to breath.

All you can do is be instrumental in bringing this about. You must be an inspiration to your team. Someone they would desire to emulate. This is why it is so very important to follow the SFI Rules of Success and to lead by example.

If your affiliate is already serious then you will need to continue being supportive in every way.

If you are going to be an effective sponsor you will need to stay abreast of the vast base of knowledge that is available to us. SFI Alerts and news. You must know how to maneuver SFI and TripleClicks website and find the information you need to keep your team well informed in your weekly team mail. They will have questions and you will need to supply the answers.

Knowledge is powerful and it will help you succeed. The more you know will increase the likelihood you'll make a mistake.

For the sake of illustration lets imagine we are examining this within a 30 to 60 day range from date of joining SFI.

It begins with my Welcome Letter and Messages. Initially right out of the gate I refer them to my SFI Start | Recruiting and Training website page called "Getting Started with SFI" from this page they are provided step by step actions to follow and there have access to Gery Carson's "Getting Started with SFI Screencast Training Video.

Unlike Gambling where you win or loose. At Pricebenders you earn 5 or 10 Member Reward Points (MRP) for every bid you make. These can add up fast. You can bank them up and use them to buy products or services at TripleClicks.

I have 22,678 MPR Banked up. My eyes are the Apple iPad Air 2 for 39243 MRP at the MRP Store.

You can watch an auction in progress or participate in it. It can be fun if you play responsibly and even more rewarding when you win.

At the forum you are by default following Gery and your team. Gery is there for us because he is devoted to helping us succeed. The forum is a necessary tool to your success. If it wasn't important you wouldn't find Gery there replying to SFI Affiliates on the holidays as I have.
