I personally find that the S-Builder Co-op provides the best result for my SFI business even though it costs $22.00 (Standing Order). The S-Builder provides a steady flow of PSAs and PRMs to your business and can result in TripleClicks sales and commissions for you.

It is also suggested in the tips offered by SFI and other successful affiliates that sponsors and their team members can share the costs for the S-Builder shares. You can develop ways to split the costs so that your downline

Here are the three areas that I believe will help you to focus
on what your team may need. You may not want to include all three
in every communication to your team. But here is what I use
for my guide:

Motivational: Find something that has inspired you that
you can pass along that you believe will motivate your
team. This could also be a story about your success and
how your team can duplicate your success.

Educational: This would be something

The number one requirement for success in your SFI business is that you have a strong desire for a better standard of living, getting out of debt, quitting your JOB, or whatever your personal desire is.

Without the self-motivation that forces you back to the computer to do your daily activities, place ads, and study and learn the business, all that your sponsor does or does not do for you matters nothing.

One thing I have found is that the people in your downline who "get the SFI concept" (they understand), and who consistently work their business will not need much encouragement. I will let the people in my Genealogy know about products I use and suggest some they can use to maintain their EA rank.

In any online business there is no money to be made until somebody buys something or sells something. This is true in SFI. It's not like SFI and Gery Carson have a huge store of cash

The life of any business is the sale of products.
Doing the daily actions keeps you engaged in your
business and helps you maintain your rank of EA or higher.
Sponsoring new affiliates will bring people onto your team
who will purchase products and you will earn commissions.
Also promote your TripleClicks store to find some customers
who may only want to buy products, and you earn commissions
on their purchases. (Remind them they can save on their
purchases

Drip Marketing is how you try to entice prospects who have looked at the business but have not decided to join, prospects who have joined but have not yet started to work the business. These are usually email messages and are often sent on autopilot with the use of an autoresponder.

What is the usual practice is that a Capture Page is set up with a form that requires your prospect to enter their name and email address. The form is connected to the autoresponder. When your prospect enters

Many people come to SFI hoping for an easy way to make big money fast. In the beginning as they learn the business and earn a lot of VP, their thinking is that getting all these VP will net them a big pay out. What they fail to see is that there is no pay out until there are sales made.

In the very beginning when we welcome new members we need to stress that point. In business money is made as a result of sales. If new members get that picture in the very beginning they will stay with

I believe the attitude of the people you attract to SFI starts with the type of ad you post that brings new team members in. Try to create ads that will appeal to people like yourself who have real goals, who understand you are promoting a business, and who understand it takes time to build a new business.

When people understand the "work" in a "Work From Home Business" and they really want to bring about change in their finances and their lifestyle, they will more

What are the best ways to set up an advertising co-op for my affiliates?

The very best way and the easiest setup I have ever seen for a CO-OP is right here in your co-op manager (https://www.sfimg.com/PowerTools/TLCoop).

If you follow the few simple steps outlined there you can have your co-op set up and
ready in a very few minutes.

I just set up my first co-op a few days ago and already new sign-ups are coming in for my affiliates. It is working great. Believe me, you cannot find anything easier.

What advice would you give to an SFI affiliate who wants to create and maintain their own SFI website?

There is only one benefit I can think of for having your own website instead of using the Gateway site provided in SFI. That would be that you can connect that website to your own autoresponder and list builder, and then the leads you gather would be on your own personal list.

For now, I am perfectly happy with the Gateway links and the Capture Pages in SFI. All the leads I have generated and the traffic I have had to SFI came through one of the existing Gateways.
