It is very important that as a Sponsor you pass on the correct details to your prospects. This will reduce such conflict and give them a clear distinction between a "job" and a "business".

In as far as looking at SFI as an employer, you must quickly correct this perception by advising affiliates that if they have an employee mentality, this will not be the right place to be in because employees are paid salaries not commissions. SFi pays out commissions based on

TripleClicks is probably the easiest and fastest way you can earn good commissions and profit if you can concentrate on creating sales opportunities. There are various ways I do this.

1. I send out emails to my team members to let them know of new products before they have gone live and I ask them what would they like me to add on my store.

2. I provide additional details of the product in a group chat and how useful the product has been for me.

3. I encourage

From your question it seems like you have 3 categories of people you are targeting and this therefore has defined the market you are trying to penetrate.

1..There are those who would like to work the SFI business
2..There are those that will only be interested in buying from TripleClicks
3..The last one are people or businesses that wish to become an E Commerce Associate

SHOPPING MALLS & SUPERMARKETS
Keeping in mind the above, you will need to have flyers

I strongly believe that everything in life has both a positive and negative and as such people have their strengths and weaknesses. Your team's attitude and how they perceive SFI starts with you. If you have an optimistic outlook about SFI, you will definitely pass this onto your team members. Having said that, we are without doubt faced with situations with prospects and team members when they do not see your viewpoint.

Take any business, the people who run the business are interested

Transfer buying is a lucrative way to expand your SFI business because it means that you are spending money purchasing items that you need regularly from your own store, TripleClicks rather than paying for them from another store elsewhere.

- You earn Versa Points (Sales points) and it is also possible that you can go away with great deals and discounts!

- You have the advantage of promoting popular products among ECAs who may be in your team thus enhancing the businesses of

I need to ensure that I have a strong foundation for my business. This means having active affiliates. There will be new developments in SFI and keeping this in mind, I will be putting more effort in:

a) Investment in sponsoring and advertising both online and offline
b) Provide better incentives and more competitions for my team members
c) I will contact my team members individually which means that I will white list all the email contacts of the team members in my Genealogy.
d)

What do you do about PSAs that start off great but then suddenly become completely inactive?

There is a considerable amount of debate about active PSAs vs inactive ones and what is the probability that the PSA I will join will be in the business long term.

In my time with SFI - which is now coming close to my 2nd year, I have had the following experiences with PSAs. Although I do not have statistics to confirm my conclusion that : you can never be sure who will stay with you long term or who will not. This is a reality we have to accept and move on.

You will therefore

Team Leaders have a definite responsibility towards their team and it is important to first understand that there is no point whatsoever to fast track to leadership level when you do not have an active team under you.

To motivate downlines to move up to leadership level from being EA, they should have an active team. Here are a few ways to do that.

1..Starting contests in the team is very motivating and if you keep the minimum qualifying requirements of lets say a Bronze Team

When you deposit $1000 in the bank, you will definitely not receive a return on your investment for $5000.

This holds true for anything you wish to accomplish in your life, SFI is no exception. Here are a few common examples to illustrate my point.

- take a relationship where there are 2 persons involved. If 1 person does the "giving" all the time, it is bound to create an imbalance in the relationship and this will lead to failure;

Being a Bronze Team Leader (BTL) is your first step into becoming a leader for your team. It has many advantages which we sometimes tend to either ignore or take for granted. This is the milestone you have achieved signifying your commitment to yourself and towards your business. It is the start to financial freedom and it brings out enormous opportunities for you to understand that the next level is achievable.

When you become a BTL,
