This has not happened to me yet, thank the Lord.
I think I would be naturally disappointed and would instinctively encourage him not to quit, to stay, to persevere and not to give up. I would remind him that with SFI he is building himself a real business. Like any other business it has to be nurtured and developed for it to grow to profitability. Give it time.
If he is 'putting out' a lot of money into the business and not returning a profit then I would suggest that we look at what he is spending his money on. Does he need to spend money? What is his business strategy, plans and goals? If he is 'putting out' a lot of time into the business with little return, then I would work with him on working smarter, using time saving activities/programs etc..
I would also look at the affiliate and how he has been operating. Did he just 'joined yesterday' and was looking for quick money? Is SFI too slow for him,not giving him the quick riches he seeks? Has he done any hard work within SFI or has he just been simply clicking on the to do lists? Has he been an active affiliate at all?
To be brutally honest, if I believe that an affiliate who is thinking of quitting is worth saving, I will do my very best to retain him. On the other hand if the affiliate has not given me any indication that is serious about this business, I would still advice him against quitting although my heart would probably not be in it.
My standard advice would be not to quit. If they want a break from SFI take a break. They don't have to be active. Take a VP Streak holiday and stop being active. If later on they want to reactivate their accounts, just simply login and start working again. If they take this option, I would keep up the contacts with them.
Remember, ones they opt out of SFI, you can no longer make contact with them and they are lost to SFI & you then.
