One of the biggest mistakes I made in the beginning was Assuming!

What I mean by that is I assumed that because they signed up on an English site
that they automatically spoke and read english. I have found since that they may
speak it or read it but not always with understanding it fully. Asking in your welcome message if they would prefer instruction in english or their own language. Then explain the translator at bottom of the home page.

Your A2A list gives you an opportunity to network, and share strategies with
your fellow affiliates. Also each country has their own specific problems or

for the problems, that the new affiliate, in that region may experience.
I always suggest to my new PSAs and CSAs to join A2A for those reasons and the friendship.
You can never be to rich or have too many friends.

Patience they say is a virtue. I have a wonderful Sponsor.
His advise when I was here about 4 months was above all do not quit.
Let them know we all started at the bottom and some months are better
than others and set back are a part of business.
He told me his story of leaving and coming back and he said, "It was a
big mistake to have given up and then return. You lose momentum when
this happens." And that there is no better program out there with as
