I don't believe new affiliates should become team leaders in their first month.
Really the only way you could achieve team leader in the first month is by doing all the Getting Started Actions, Launchpad, and Intermediate Actions in one go. That is very do-able because I did it and became a BTL very fast.
But it did me no good at all. I had no team to lead or get matching VP from, and I couldn't maintain that status without spending a fair bit at TripleClicks. Eventually I had to drop back to EA2 because I couldn't sustain the monthly expenditure without anything coming in. I have since worked out that with careful management, those initial 'free' once only VP can be made to last over 3 - 4 months if new affiliates log in every day and do all their daily, weekly and monthly actions, as well as buy just a single TCredit as a Standing order.
During this time you will learn and come to fully understand the business and hopefully have a team to begin to benefit from. When you check your scoreboard page, and see that you are missing earnings that are worth chasing, then go ahead and spend the money to move on up to BTL and beyond - but don't do it in your first month.
