When I send an affiliate my welcome message, I encourage him/her to learn everything about SFI by starting at the Start Button and the SFI Basics link. and encourage progress to the Launch Pad lessons. I also explain to the affiliate about the gift certificate and the co-ops. Later, I encourage affiliates to get a Standing Order, if possible, or to get some TCredits to bid at the auctions. I let affiliates know that at some point it is good to try TripleClicks and purchase from their business, just as a store owner or clerk buys from their store instead of some other place.
Since buying and selling items at TripleClicks is the lifeblood of this organization, it only seems wise to make use of this store to earn income, whether it is referring customers to it or selling items to your customers offline or referring an ECA. You must be acquainted with TripleClicks if you are to tell others about SFI. That's why we have so many wonderful tools to use.
If an affiliate cannot invest money at this point, it might be wise to start out with Wave3. Perhaps an affiliate could sponsor through the Wave3 Gateway Site and begin to see results.
All throughout my time at SFI, I give little tidbits to my affiliates in newsletters or in the Stream about TripleClicks in some way, in order to encourage them to jump in and try it.
May this answer help in some way.
