The word "Bribe" itself gives the impression of something NOT good to do. Duplication is a better concept. It implies helping those who need it (which is often every one down line from you. Bribery is what polititians use to win votes--generally with OPM (other people's money.)
With SFI, money can be looked upon as a wise investment. Helping the receiver of the gift helps the giver likewise. Financial prowess can certainly fertilize rapid growth in income depending on the actions of the receiver. Gifts should not be so large (bribery) that they are not duplicatable by any but a few in your down line. The Biblical adage of "It is better to GIVE than to RECEIVE" is certainly apropos here. I have not seen that idea widely practiced among the SFI affiliates.
I would recommend that help, whatever the form, whatever the amount, or from whatever the source would be most beneficial in the first 24 hours. SFI has a stringent limit on the time element required to get the FastTrack 200 VP Bonus, consider some way of supplementing their 700 VP to the EA Rank (1500VP) within that first 24 hours. A Gift Certificate for $20 would allow them to buy 10 TCredits @ $1.99 and would add 102 Sales VP daily. Or do some other means of gathering 800 VP to qualify for EA (1500 VP). Add one PSI per week or even one per month, and I don't think you will be unhappy with the results. I would not call it BRIBERY to give them this kind of a winning start. It would also save them from using more of their precious OTO's to help them through month #2 having most all of their 30 LaunchPad Lessons remaining. It would also put them in an excellent position to go for BTL or beyond in their 1st month.
I believe this approach for those who have $36.25 to risk on each active PSA will find they have gotten steadfast PSAs in most cases and eliminated the lazy, non-productive ones.
