What you don't want are affiliates who are dependant.
You don't want your affiliates to keep on coming to you for information that are readily available especially on the SFI website. They will in time develop their own teams which they will have to sponsor, so you want them to find out the answers themselves.
I would suggest that when they come to you for answers to matters that are readily available, don't brush them off but at the same time do not give them the full answer if possible. I would answer their question and at the same time tell them that there is more information to be found on the website and then give them the link. In this way they start finding out the information themselves.
I also tell them how to search for information via the Affiliate Center search bar.
I have seen posts by affiliates on the forum and A2A who appear to be asking for financial help in order to achieve EA status etc.. Sponsors need to be very careful about giving financial help to their affiliates. By all means, provide incentives (TC, Reassignments, Gift Cards) for the affiliates to reach milestones but I would not recommend making it a habit of say giving them TCredits so that tye can achieve EA status etc.. I might do it ones for an affiliate and thats it.
