Your down line wants to earn money RIGHT NOW! Can you hear that in his letters to you? Even those who understand that SFI is not a get rich quick business want to earn sooner than later.

The quickest way to earn money is to promote sales of TC products. Go over with him the ways to use the text ads to sell products, how to set up the ads, what types of products and the expected targeted audience. It doesn't have to be a complete lesson, just enough for him to get some ads out there. He

There are two kinds of people who can be called SFI prospects,
(1) those who have not signed up yet, and
(2) those who have signed up but who have not begun working on their To Do Lists and have not decided to ever begin.

Both groups also fall intone of 4 or more categories of computer savvy,
(1) know how to do eMail and search the web
(2) know how to shop online, have bought at least one item
(3) participate in social media and know how to post comments and photos.

Because of the SFI Alert News article on Nov. 19, 2015, we will no longer be able to be BTL without having a team. Starting on Jan.31, 2016 we must have both 3000 VP plus at least one generation 1 EA2, the three stars, and a maintained Leadership Page in order to qualify for BTL.

Now, the EA2 will only bring you the 100 leadership vp so you will still need to come up with the extra vp. How many? Let's see.

1500 SVP for SO
100 AVP for SO
480 AVP for daily tasks

The most reliable way of knowing if you are capable of building a successful SFI business is to grab the bull by the horns and do it.

If you don't want to try it without knowing if you can do it, then check off these requirements:
+ can you read or have someone who can read to you?
+ do you have a computer & can you do eMail and google search? Or have a neighbor show you?
+ are you willing to take time away from television, games, partying, and Facebook?
+ have

During my training SFI caught hold of my attention. The more I read, the more excited I grew.I woke up at night just to read more. I realized that it was very easy to follow the plan. The KISS principle popped out at me. I knew then that it was easy enough for most people to learn to do it. The training was certainly ample. No grandiose promises were made. And the compensation plan and payment procedures were easy to follow.

I put lots of time into exploring the web site, I read testimonies.

I think there is merit in becoming a team leader before one has affiliates in his team. There are some obvious monetary reasons, but they will be very small to non-existent with no real team.

The real value, I feel, of become an early team leader and maintaining it is in preparation for the time when you are actually a team leader. Most new affiliates will look at your profile, see how long you've been in, and what your rank is. They want to be lead by an experienced leader. They are more

Begin with the intention of doing well what you are doing at the time and work into the other facets of the business as you become more experienced with what you are already doing. I'm not saying to become an expert in anything before you move on, but to really get a grasp on the how's and why's of it.

There really is an unlimited number of tools that SFI supplies to us. We have both web sites, SFI and TC. Each has many pages with different tools on each. Then, we have our main menu, the

What is fun and exciting about SFI?

For me when I got in,it was fun watching my vp pikle up, watching my classmates fall behind me, catching and passing the #1 in the class. It was exciting to see how much I was winning in the E365, Daily Grand, then the T-time.

And I was excited about the opportunities of the CA program.And I was an EA2 every month and got CSAs and then more CSAs after BTL. And the PSAs excited me, even the sleepers. My larger commissions excited me. Contests

As an EA2 you can continue on in one of two directions.
1) You can remain content at EA2 for the time that it will take you to build a strong, active team that will propel you to BTL when you have enough AVP from guiding them to EA2 and above. This route may take sometime to bring you to BTL, but you will be not only earning the status, but also the compensation that is expected at BTL.

2) You can also buy your way to BTL by purchasing or selling enough products to earn the SVP that

"Measuring success" implies that there is a range of positions in the idea of success.The word 'success' has no definite qualification or quantification. When we hear the word we think in terms of our own experiences, wants, dreams, and status.

So to measure success, there has to be some definitions of what success is. The question defines the area in which we are to answer, that being SFI. SFI has very many stepping stones that can be used to measure our success in our SFI business.
