The answer to this depends on the each individual affiliate and what his or her needs might be, and also how much time an affiliate has available to spend in SFI.
Someone who just needs a bit extra pocket money for luxury items won’t necessarily have the same long-term goals as someone who is broke and out of work.
Their motivation will be very different, too.
A range of goals are listed to choose from when an affiliate is filling out their profile. These are rather vague, but are

I would say that both these should be used. They can work together and complement each other. In fact more than 1 blog would be even better. You could have a blog about an interest of yours which could be linked via the content in some way to SFI or TripleClicks with ads on it for SFI and TripleClicks, and also directing readers to your website. Then you could have a 2nd blog specifically about SFI or TripleClicks.

Your blogs should be updated about 3 times per week. The blog is where

I have been thinking about this, too.
On one side of the card I would have an attention-grabbing heading and under it bullet points listing the various aspects of the SFI opportunity – affiliate marketing, being an ECA, Pricebenders, earning form home. ‘Write an interesting sentence about each of these and include your gateway url. If there’s room, include even a one sentence testimonial.
On the reverse of the card, have an invitation to join you in this wonderful opportunity and

To promote Pricebender auctions, copy the winning auction results picture, name and price that is published on the Pricebender's page and post this onto your blog, Facebook page, or website. Email it to people who would have been interested in that item, or people you know who love a bargain. Of course it's even better if you participate in and win some auctions yourself. Then you can brag about your own wins on your blog, Facebook, and Twitter, as well as have the actual item to show your friends

What should I avoid when creating SFI ads?

The most important thing to avoid when creating SFI ads, in my opinion, is to give the impression that a lot of money can be made fast in SFI. SFI is a genuine business and as with any business, it takes time to grow and develop trust with clients. Also it requires an investment of time, effort and money. This doesn't happen overnight, or even in a few weeks.

The next thing to avoid is giving the impression that an income can be made by doing nothing more than logging in for a half hour

As a new Team Leader, how do you know when you have enough PSA's to reassign to your downline?

From personal experience, I would hold off reassigning PSAs straight away until I am sure that the person to whom I intend to reassign them, will actually look after them properly.

When I first became a team leader, I tried to encourage new people who made EA, by reassigning them new PSAs. Unfortunately that first batch of EAs dropped out after the first month, when they discovered work had to be done, so the PSAs I reassigned to them now have no real sponsor any more. Of course they

When I am fully self-employed with SFI, and someone asks what I do for a living, what do I tell them?

Bring on that day! When that day comes for me, as I believe it will, I will tell whoever asks that I am a self-employed entrepreneur. That will arouse them to ask for more info.
Then I will tell them I am an affiliate for the greatest network marketing company anywhere and hopefully be in a position to explain SFI and all its various income streams.
As a successful marketer making a full time living from the business I will have a credible testimony to share with others.

What's the best way to gain the attention of Second Home CSAs and get them active again?

"What's the best way to gain the attention of Second Home CSAs and get them active again?"

This question assumes that second home CSAs are inactive. That is not necessarily so. It is their previous co-sponsors who became inactive and lost them. Anyone who does not maintain his EA status loses any CSAs he may have had, so these people then become 2nd home CSAs. I have just recently got a new co-sponsor and it is great to have a co-sponsor who is active and stays in touch with

"What's the best SFI marketing method for beginners? Why?"

The best marketing method for beginners is to start with their warm markets – their family friends and acquaintances and colleagues.
You already know these people and have some sort of relationship with them. They know that you are honest, believable and trustworthy. (hopefully!)
You can use the $12 gift cards with these people as well as share about how to make money with SFI. This will be easier when

"How is communication best utilized to create robust duplication?"

There are several ways of communicating with your team – stream posts, ecards, weekly team mailouts, personal emails, Skype, phone calls, private webinars and even autoresponder campaigns.

I suggest using as many of these as possible, although I haven’t yet conducted a webinar, but am thinking about how to do that. You need to be known by your team, and trusted by them and the only way to build
