Hello Maria,
Please keep in mind, everybody will not share the same visions you may have. On the surface, it may seem as if everyone should jump at the chance of being in business for themselves, but it just isn't that way at all. It's just not that simple!
The "Employee Mentality" is what we are most accustomed to having. After all, isn't that the more common teaching we receive growing up? Think about it. How common is it that we are encouraged to finish high school, go on to college, get a degree to find a good paying job? The plain truth is, we are groomed early on in our lives towards becoming "dependent" financially, not "independent" financially!
Truth is, the desire for independence must be in them already. If it is not, then it will be difficult, if not impossible, for you to remove the "Employee Mentality" from them.
Therefore, my suggestion to you is to give them what you know. Explain the concept of SFI/TripleClicks, and what it has done for you and what it can do for them. In your explanation, give them the key points such as free to join, length of time company has been in business, the success of SFI and it's global presence.
You'll also want to point out to them that despite it being free to join, there is a level of commitment to work that comes with the "free" marketing and training they receive and from time-to-time, they may have to invest relative small amounts of money to increase the level of success they hope to achieve.
Get the point I'm making? You must give them what's in your power to give them. They are the only ones who can turn their "Employee mentality...to a BUSINESS OWNER mentality." But you would have done your job!
