Remind your affiliates that no business has a great return at the onest. You must invest time, energy and money to see profit. The best thing is once established, SFI tends to work for you so future success is attainable.

Discuss this in your initial email to your new affiliates. Talk about personal products being purchased through Tripleclicks makes sense rather than buying from another business that don't support their or your business success.
I often start conversations with people I don't know. What are the best ways I can transition these conversations into me giving them an X-card/flyer/postcard for SFI?

I do the same especially with waitresses. I always leave them a card when I pay the bill.

Exposure of their business by being associated with the website. It is a free advertising for the independent business and one that is seen worldwide. Why not?

Be there. Have you ever heard about something called FISH Philosophy? One of the tenants of this philosophy is "Be There". When your affiliates ask a question or if you see them making errors in some of their business. Be there, and guide them.

If you are not getting response, you can ask for reassignment. Hope this helps.

You have to send something motivational. Something that gives an affiliate support and encouragement. Then I remind them of the EA level and the importance of getting to that level each month. Remind them that you don't quit a business you open the doors to and that it has to be built one day at a time seeking out your goals.
