There are many qualities we need to have in order to be successful with SFI but in my opinion the following qualities are the most important:
1. Self Motivation - We can't expect our sponsors/upline to carry us and build our business for us.
It is up to us to read and learn everything we can and put what we learn
into practice.
2. Discipline - Even though we can set our own hours and work as much or as little as we want it is
important to set a proper work schedule and stick to it.
3. Patience - We must have patience. This is not some get rich quick scheme. It is going to take
time for all of your hard work to pay of
Those are the top three most important qualities to have, again, just my opinion :)
Some others are:
Organization
Eagerness
Confidence
Open Minded
Thank you for posting your question.
I hope my response helps out.

How do you make SFI not be overwhelming for yourself and team members?

Very good question thank you for posting it.
Here are a few thing I recommend doing/not doing:
Do not get caught up in what I like to call the "Power Hours" (PH). The Power Hours are the first 24 - 48 hours of being signed up. You try to read every lesson and put all of it to work right away. This will overwhelm you and nothing will get done.
Take your time, take it one step at a time and if you do start feeling overwhelmed stop for a bit then when you start again go to the basics page and just work on one think from that page.
I personally put together a daily, weekly, monthly and yearly plan. Use your goals tab and each time you are logging off take an extra 5 minutes to make your goals for the next night, day or for the next time you log in to your account.
If you have skype you can also skype any of your team members and go over the material or lessons together.
Again just take it slow. SFI isn't going anywhere so no need to rush it.
I hope some of this helps a little.
Best wishes,
Isaiah Boyle

What's more important--the initial contact with a prospect or the follow-up, and why?

This is a good question...
The initial contact is extremely important. We have all heard the expression "You only get one chance to make a first impression". This is so important. You don't want to come off as arrogant but you do want to sound confident. Make sure you have 2 or 3 main points to talk about and end the conversation with a "teaser"(an exciting statistic or fact) and tell them you will tell them more next time you talk. Leave them wanting more.
That being said...
The follow ups are where you close the deal and get the person/persons started and continuously moving forward. Without following up with a lead you will never close the deal.
I like to think of it as a vehicle. You purchase a new car and it looks great! With this new car you will need to regularly change the oil, fill it with gas, check the brake fluid, etc. Without these things your car will not last. Without the fuel the vehicle will not move.
So to answer your question, I personally feel that while initial contact is extremely important, the follow up is much more important. Without regular follow ups your PSA's will go nowhere. We need to give them the fuel, the drive to get them going and keep them going.
I hope this helps :-)
Best Wishes!
