Hi,
I thought this was a great question.
In general it is usually easiest to talk with family and friends, until it comes to something like a potential business opportunity. Even though we ourselves may see the potential and are excited about it, it doesn't mean our family and friends will be on the same page. What has gotten my family and friends to check things out is I tell them SFI is accredited through the Better Business Bureau, so it is a very legitimate business. I also tell them the site is secure and if they choose to participate in anything on this site, they can use paypal, which seems to put them at ease as well.
Sometimes when we are dealing with strangers it is more difficult to talk with them because we do not know what interests they have, as they are strangers, so it may be hard to know what on the site would spark their interest.
One thing I found that has generated some traffic on my site is I posted a blurb on Facebook offering a Tripleclicks gift card to anyone who was interested. I even offered to personally mail them away if the person interested was not within my delivery area.
I found this useful because then people who were interested came forward to me and I did not have to seek people out myself. This is awesome because I know people on my Facebook have friends on their Facebook that I do not have, so if the interest gets out there, it should generate more traffic on SFI/Tripleclicks.
Hope this helps out!
Have a successful day!
