Appreciate your answers all but arent we missing the point? Not everyone likes contests! The real question is about motivation. Every management book I have read talks about recognition and title rather than money as a motivating factor and if you want to build a successful team it is not the gifts, tc credits or even reassignment in their early stages with SFI but the recognition and positive feedback you give them and that they respond to.
If you keep offering prizes then their motivation for participating in SFI doesnt lead to a healthy team When they realise "I CAN DO IT" then they have become quality affiliates. My belief then is that the rewards that have been talked about be given to the affiliates on a random basis simply by participating as a TEAM! Just like SFI does with its Daily Award winners.
