Quite simply put "DUPLICATION"
By learning effective sponsoring strategies you will be able to build a big team. A big team on the other hand is no good to you if you are not teaching your affiliates on how to duplicate what you are doing.
The saying goes "The gold is in your down line". Teach them exactly how you are achieving your success. Share your ideas, tips and secrets"
Paying for coops is a good way of sponsoring but also no good at the same time if you are not duplicating. By learning how to effectively sponsor new affiliates by yourself you will be cutting this cost.
I hope this helps you and the best of luck

Should I set up an email capture and autoresponder on my blog and, if so, what are some examples of what to put into the series?

An email capture and auto-responder on your blog would most certainly be a good thing to do. Depending on what your websites function is there could be a variety of different things you could set up as a follow up series.
For example if it is a general information about SFI kind of website then you could follow up with a series about the history of SFI, what the functions are and also the benefits of been an SFI or TripleClicks member are. After this is done you could slowly lead the way into sponsoring the contact in to the business.
Maybe your blog is for your affiliates only - Here you could follow up with a training series to teach your affiliates how you are achieving your success. Take them step by step with little actions weekly which could increase their income. Every little detail can then be passed on to their team as suited.
Either way, if you set up an auto-responder you will be capturing lead data, which to me is important in any online business.
Hope these tips help you out a little

How would you convince an affiliate who has abandoned SFI to restart again?

Quite honestly, I myself would not even try to convince them.
If they have given up already then they just probably do not have the right mindset for this business or they signed up expecting instant riches.
This happens quite a lot in SFI.
On the other hand, for me this is the second time i have been with SFI. The first time i quit was due to financial complications. There is never a way of knowing the circumstances unless you ask the affiliate. If, like me it is due to financial reasons then they may respond to a quick email explaining this and then you may discuss a path forward with them together. If they do not respond then i would just leave it at that and focus on the affiliates who are interested in building their business.
Business builders have no time for time wasters and Tyre-kickers!
I hope these tips help you on your way to further success.

How do you learn to write effective ads if you have never written any ads before?

Learning how to write effective ads for SFI and TripleClicks is all about testing the water. Nobody will create a perfect ad the first time around. First of all you can look at how other people are writing their ads. This will give you a good idea of what they could look like but there is nothing to say that these ads are all successful. Take all of your links that you will be using and turn them into tracking links. You can achieve this by using many free services online. A couple of good free ones are bitly or maybe even the google url shortening service. Just go ahead and google them, they are easy to find. These new links will basically track how many clicks that your ads are receiving.
Over time you will learn which ones are working best and which ones are not. If you are using safelists or even traffic exchanges then there are many varying factors which can create an amazing ad. Size, font and even color where permitted can all play a big role in what ads succeed and what ads do not. Do not expect it to all happen overnight. Be patient.
Take your time. Good things come to those that wait. The best of luck to you

To promote my SFI business, how do I get listed on Google, Bing, and other popular search engines?

To get listed in Google and get a fairly decent rank make sure you are doing a few things. If you have a blog make sure it is your own writing and not copied from anywhere. Make sure you are posting on a regular basis and also relevant content.
Google and other search engines love fresh unique content. You also need to make sure that you are getting back links and social bookmarks to your promotions too. The more trustworthy links you have back to your site the higher you will rank in the search engines. Take a look in to seo for your site as it will help it a lot. Unfortunately going into seo is a bit too much in depth for this answer.
There is a few things that i would advise against doing. People who advertise a fresh website get frustrated that they are not getting the kind of traffic that they wished for. This is where they will go on the hunt for ways to boost it faster. In the process they will run into all sorts of dubious places selling back links or claiming to boost your website by spamming your links around the internet. In Google's eyes this is a very big no no and will only get your site punished or even unlisted.
I hope some of this information can help you on your way to a very successful and bright future

Is it worthwhile to send individual welcome letters to new PSAs...or can I just send out group mailings?

I would suggest that you always send mails to your PSA's as well as sending out group mailings. By doing this your PSA's will see that you are taking the time to get to know them on an individual basis whilst also guiding the whole team at the same time.
I get a lot of group mailings but quite a lot of the time it can give me the feeling that it is quite robotic. I am always happy to see that my sponsor, co-sponsor or even somebody higher in the team has taken their time to get to know me or help me on a more personal level. It is always a big confidence booster to get a personal thank you or maybe even a tip to help you out which is just addressed to yourself.
I think that a lot more people would feel the urge to go on with SFI if there were more personal touches from the leaders and not just a group mailing every now and again.
Everybody starts somewhere and these were my personal feelings from when i first started. I addressed this myself and have seen vast improvements in communication in my team.
I hope this helps you out a bit. Good luck!

They say in network marketing that it is never about any products or any money, it is all about yourself. It is even more so about the personal connections that you make.
A lot of people make it hard and show no connections, personality and do everything like a robot. Imagine you were one of their down line. I guess most of us have had it before where we do not get our sponsors contacting us or answering back emails. It can get really frustrating and most people quit.
The way forward is to lead by example! Get social wit your new members from their very first day. This goes to prove that you are in deed a real person. Nobody likes a standard email from a company, giving it a personal touch with a few questions or maybe a bit of humor can go a long way. Remember to send out weekly support messages, and maybe even offer one on one support. Obviously this could get a bit tedious with a down-line of thousands.
Just remember that this type of business is not for everyone. As long as you are doing your utmost best to teach and train your team then you will eventually find the takers. Do not let a few bad apples destroy your faith. It is a game of numbers, you just gotta get to the right ones first.
Hope you do well with this advice, good luck and happy team building

Can I set up my SFI business to run on autopilot? If so, how?

I think the word autopilot is just a word that people have found advertised online mainly made to dupe people into joining an existing business. Look at any business in this world and there is always work to do no matter what. Even if it did exist then definitely not for network marketing.
Network marketing is all about being social and building connections with your team. I will not lie... This is the second time round with SFI! The first time i had a non-existent up-line who never answered messages and never sent any support whatsoever. The type of sponsors who are paying for there couple of hundred down-line about really getting in touch with members daily. They need not worry about contacting their members too much as they have enough people coming in to afford even more.
This is turn was a big turn off for me. I never got the help from my team leaders that i needed to succeed so i ended up quitting. I joined again late last year under a good sponsor who i already know and things are going so much better. What i am learning from him i am passing on to my team.
What i am trying to say is that even in the most successful businesses in the world there is always something to do in the background. Do not let the word autopilot fool you. his will do your team so much damage that it would not of even been worth it in the first place.
Hope this helps you out a bit

How can you be an SFI Team Leader if you're not a born leader?

Affiliate since: 01/29/2014, Power Rank: 99999999
I guess been a born leader and an SFI Team leader are kind of related but still not the same thing. SFI and other network marketing opportunities require a big learning curve. Most people who join SFI start trying to communicate with their team by using the standard SFI messages. To me this is robotic. To be a team leader you need to have confidence, be there for your team and also offer support when not even asked for.
Letting your team know you are a real person and not just a robot goes a long way. By contacting them on a regular basis and showing them that you care and are there to help them is what network marketing is all about.
You may of heard the saying before that "network marketing is not about the product, Its about yourself"
No matter what company you are with, the people who succeed are the people who learn how to be part of a team and work together. Learn new things about yourself daily. Do not be afraid that you may be making ay mistake. This business has no space to be afraid. Be social and let your team know you are there for them at any time.
It is either you are going to do it and try it or you should just leave it alone.
I hope these tips help you on your way. Happy team building
