You should probably do both. The experience will be good for you. You might find that you are good at recruiting affiliates. That's an ability worth discovering you have, don't you agree?
However, the lesson that you should probably do both, came to me at the end of a longggggg learning curve. You see, I believed that I had to do it myself. I intended to learn internet marketing, and recruiting was a part of it. So I struggled, and tried, and quit, and tried some more. Occasionally, I'd get an S-Builder, and that would help.
Then I remembered: Play to your strengths. Ah ha! This recruiting certainly wasn't a strength of mine. My strength is written and verbal communications. My strength is communicating with people, encouraging them, helping them, answering questions, and guiding them.
So I learned to be consistent with ordering S-Builder and hits/affiliates from some of our ECAs. Don't get me wrong, I haven't given up learning how to do it. :) I just don't spend hours a day stressing over it. I use those hours helping my affiliates and CSAs learn the SFI business and how to do it.
Ultimately, my suggestion is to do both, but mainly, play to your strengths!
