First let’s be clear what S-Builder is.
S-Builder is SFI’s international, multi-channel advertising co-op. It is available to all SFI affiliates through the TripleClicks Superstore. Please refer to the following link: –

To participate you purchase shares, which are called “units” in the co-op.
One unit costs US$24.00 per month or US$22.00 if it is part of a Standing Order (SO). That is just US$0.72 cents a day. You may purchase as many units in S-Builder as you wish. SFI claims that S-Builder is one of most economical ways to build an online business but no specific results are guaranteed.
No longer is a lack of time or marketing experience a roadblock to success with SFI. With S-Builder, you can simply plug in to SFI’s global advertising co-op and within a few weeks begin receiving sign-ups (both SFI affiliates and TC members). Hence you can start building a residual income stream for you and your family.
(Note: I have prepared the above summary of S-Builder from the product detail information supplied in the above link.)
So, what is my experience with S-Builder?
I purchased one unit in S-Builder on September 3, 2013 (in my sixth day as a member of SFI) and I have purchased one unit each month ever since (I am now in my 14th month in SFI).
And I found that it took some time for my first SFI affiliate through S-Builder to arrive, not until November 30, 2013 – some 87 days later. But since then they became quite regular. I usually receive about 4 signups per month but I received 7 last month, the most ever. And so far this month I have received 2, so it does vary.
To date I have received 46 SFI affiliates from S-Builder and 3 TripleClicks Members (TM) and it has cost me a total of US$286.00. That’s an average of 3.7 SFI affiliates per month at an average cost of US$5.84 each. (This is the first time I have looked at what S-Builder was costing me per SFI affiliate received.)
I have decided to keep purchasing one unit in S-Builder each month because it is an iconic product of SFI, it’s been developed by SFI as a means of helping affiliates grow their SFI businesses, and it does generate signups. So I think that I should support it.
But signups do not mean active affiliates and a signup through S-Builder is no exception. One can’t blame S-Builder for that. Inactive affiliates or affiliates that very quickly become inactive is a fact of life in this type of business.
The great thing about S-Builder is that I don’t have to do anything to receive a signup, apart from paying for the unit of course. And once someone signs up they will remain an SFI affiliate in my team, unless they choose to opt-out, or until they have been inactive for one year, at which time they loose their membership. So I have one year to try and show them the benefits of being a SFI affiliate and to encourage them to become and remain active. So far I have not been very successful in achieving this but that is another story. Hopefully “Fast Track 2” and the “New Member Pack” (NMP) will help in this regard. I also tried another TripleClicks signup product once. From that product I received 35 signups but none of them remained active either.
So I think that S-Builder is just one part of growing a profitable SFI business. It is not sufficient in itself but it does produce signups – which is all that is promises to do. I must also learn how to be an “awesome sponsor” and encourage my S-Builder signups to become committed SFI businesspeople. I hope to have more success in this during my second year in SFI.
