Being on Marketing since 1976 and with SFI since last December, I have started studying this reality of down line building and getting affiliates to sign up for our account.
First thing to do it’s evaluate the cost of each sign up we get that turns active, the real objective. So I started making this, how? I did bough many affiliates I paid a price for it and I have done a good job, according to “Be An Awesome Sponsor” or even better do to my experience.
So let’s analyze results

On a traditional business you need to invest variable amounts of money depending on the business, contract workers, rent your shop, bureau,...plus all the necessary accounting, taxes and financial control, giving you the usual headaches.
At SFI you depend on yourself, your home comfort and the necessary investment to build your downline and spread SFI & Tripleclicks opportunity.
Both have medium or long term results the major difference it's the initial high investment and headaches,

SFI it's an Home business opportunity and an MLM - Multi Level Marketing business.
If people decide to have an Home business or they own business they always have to invest or in a MLM platform like Amway, Melaleuca, Avon,.... or in some Franchising opportunity. How much they need to invest if compared with SFI?? A lot more.
So, to get a SO they need about 30 USD, if they are not capable of doing it, they are not looking for an Home business at all. Earning without investing at least 30

Best way to do it.

Go to www.goo.gl put the URL link you want from SFI or Tripleclicks gateways.

Google will make a shorten URL, use this shorten URL to make your promotions with the advantage to get real statistics and analytics.
Don't forget to use good KEYWORDS, here it's the most important, use Google keyword tool to find the best ones.

In my opinion a2a it's not the best solution for you to get support and assistance. Try the FORUM, here you can learn a lot not only from your questions/replies but also reading previous affiliate questions and replies from all of us.
It's the best way for you to have testimonies, experiences and real support.

For me the best sign it's activity.
How can you see that?
Go to your affiliate profile and click VP LEDGER
See it carefully and you will see if it's being active or not.
Using VP Ledger you can also see what actions your affiliate didn't accomplish yet and help him, remind him to do it.
Usually on the first month you can get very active members the problem it's on the second month.
I have made a video with all instructions for getting all possible VP's and did sent

The earnings calculator it's a good tool to understand that.

We win because of duplication and this can be achieve with a good downline. This downline can be made in two ways, massive and low quality or targeted and high quality. Go to the second one and you will achieve faster results. As allways quantity it's opposite to quality. Have 20/30 good affiliates and work with them strongly, communicate.

You can help 20 or 30 efficiently but never 3K or 5K.

Being rejected makes part of any business. Some want it others don't.

Don't lose your focus and maybe try another approach, you can be using the wrong way, words or arguments.

People are different and react in distinct ways, so before you make your approach learn how that person works and adapt your arguments to that special person. Don't use a general speech for everybody.

Be precise, short and clear.

How do I get my downline to focus on duplication? How do I explain the importance of duplication to them?

Duplication it's the essence of SFI.

You have two choices, MLM with important investment or little as SFI, so if you chose SFI you will invest small amounts but need to duplicate in the way this business makes interesting monthly earnings.

Duplication and Tripleclicks sales must be your target and it will work also for your downline.
