Mary, unfortunate your question cannot be given a yes or no answer.
The reason for this is because we sign up as affiliates all sorts of people. Some are keen to get on with it, others just want the quick dollar, others are hesitant, many do not have the money to grow their business, and many just signed up out of curiosity.
The most common comment by Team Leaders is the large number of inactive affiliates on their teams. So if someone comes along that is full of enthusiasm I say welcome him with open arms. If he wants to be Team Leader support him. I would personally not encourage or discourage him but I would certainly support his efforts. I would try and channel that enthusiasm.
I would certainly discuss with him the pros and cons of going straight for Team leader level this early in SFI. The decision is of course always his.
Some team leaders say that there is no point to being a team leader if you do not have a team to lead and I agree. But if my new affiliate becomes a new team leader, he will receive from SFI a share of the Second Home CSAs. That’s the beginning of his team.
His enthusiasm will mean extra work for me as I would have to keep a close eye on him and help him sponsor those CSA and encourage him to obtain PSA for himself. I will gladly do that.
I also believe that sponsoring CSA can be easier if they have good sponsors and can be an easier way for the new team leader to learn how to sponsor.
So while I would not encourage him to be a team leader I would certainly not discourage him. Never kill enthusiasm - cultivate and channel it.
