I want to share my own experience with all of you, which is an answer to this question:-
I joined in the month of Jan 13 the same day i got the rank of EA. This status gave me a bonus of 20 affiliates as my downline.
The same month i got the rank of STL which gave me and additional bonus of 100 affiliates in the next month.
The first month commission is not much attractive but second months commission, was excellent and which was over my expectation.
Now the same story which helped me motivate many affiliates to join me and continue to do this business on a regular basis...
some of my csa's who were in the mood of giving up SFI, are active now they are inspired after reading this, and this is how i am continuing with SFI with excellent team.
