Depending on your advertising skill level (if you have warm market available, or can do face to face selling of SFI, or physical, hands-on kinds of things), you can handle your advertising by using all the free places on internet, including all the social media sites (FB, twitter, etc.), free blogs, flyers with tear-off tabs (use your home printer to make copies from SFI) posted locally... any thing you can do for free will obviously be minimal costs.
Next level would be at least 1 unit of S-Builder Co-op, $22USD/mo. One unit will gain you usually 4 or 5 PSAs/mo, takes about 4-6 weeks after purchase to start receiving them.
Next is PSAs to Go, I believe it's about $39USD/mo, expect about 10 PSAs/mo, they start to show up within a week. I haven't used this service yet, so that's what I have heard about them on Forum.
Your time, while it is valuable, has no monetary cost attached.
Two important parts of success include advertising for PSAs, and learning the SFI program the best you can so you know how to support your new PSAs, and how to teach them the principle of duplication.
And let's not forget, clear your red tabs daily, read Forums and post/like accordingly, rate at least 10 askSC answers for 1VP, best to rate 30 answers, gain an extra entry in Daily Grand drawing. Remember to play TimeMachine, PickthePrice, and TTime - those extra TCredits you could win come in very handy when you want to bid in an auction!:) Set up a Standing Order (including S-Builder [280 VP] or PSAs to Go[1500VP]) as soon as it is convenient, this will gain you 1500-2000 SalesVP, automatically make you EA monthly so you can concentrate on learning and duplicating.
These are my best suggestions for increasing your chance of success, and I wish you much luck in building a great team :)...
