In order to change a person's mindset, whether or he or she is an affiliate, a customer, or prospect, you must first develop enough of a rapport with that person, which means, to a degree coming to like and understand that person enough to be able to communicate on that person's level, and doing so, open him or her up to the ideas you wish to share. Generally, this works best on a one-on-one basis as opposed to a multi-person mail-out.
I tend to find Skype or a Yahoo chat, complete with video and voice, is most effective because I can see my affiliate's body-language, hear his or her tone of voice, and that lets me get my ideas across most easily. If I can't manage that, it's text chat, or failing that, an individual e-mail. Regardless, though, the most important thing is to *appreciate* the person as a person.
As for developing a "Business Ownership" mentality, the best way to do that is to develop methods that give the person a sense of control--for this, my best suggestion would be to encourage them to list more merchandise on TripleClicks, so they feel like proprietors of their own stores. Your method may vary, but that feeling of control over of one's own destiny is priceless.
