Personally, I would discourage them from becoming TLs immediately. I think you'd be doing them a great disservice. Why?
SFI isn't like any other MLM out there. It takes time to understand it all, enough to be able to lead a team successfully. "Buying" your way to the top won't help you learn the business. Eventually your team members may get discouraged that they're spending more money than they're earning to maintain their TL level.
I have an excellent sponsor who discouraged me from moving too fast like I tried to do the first time I was with SFI. I made BTL before I even had three active PSAs under me. After a couple of months of frustration at having to spend my own money to maintain that level, I ended up dropping out of the business.
So now I follow my sponsor's lead and I encourage my new team members to take it slow too. Learn the business and make sure your own strategy is working and successful first. And as new members join under you, you'll earn the required VPs to maintain your TL level just by helping your team earn and maintain EA2 themselves.
So no, I would not encourage them to rush to being a TL until they've got a good handle on the whole business, have a successful strategy that they can encourage their new PSAs to duplicate, and then let TL status happen organically.
