There are 2 ways to succeed in SFI - the hard way and the easy way.
It is quite easy to qualify EA in the first month, but having used up most of the high Action VP in that month, it is almost impossible to get to EA2 without investing money. The only ways it can be done without money are sponsoring PSA's with money who can get you to EA2 if you have enough of them or by selling stuff through TripleClicks on either TConnect or their own ECA site.
It takes a huge investment in time and effort to succeed in SFI without a monetary investment. Plenty have done it but they are the exceptional. This is the hard way.
It is much easier with cash to invest, but unfortunately most PSAs come from under privileged backgrounds or 3rd world countries and have to go the hard way.
If you have cash to invest, it is so much easier to succeed in SFI. For example $20 invested by a new member gets them to EA2 immediately, with all the perks that EA2s receive.
From then on a Standing Order (SO) of 1500 VP costs as little as $36.25 and this re-qualifies them every month thereafter as EA2. Because they have not used up any of the Action VP to get to EA, they only have to get another 1500 VP to get to Bronze Team Leader (BTL), of which only 1000 VP has to be Action VP.
100 Action VP comes from the SO, 360 VP or thereabouts comes from Daily Actions and 20 VP from weekly actions, so you are almost half way there to the minimum 1000 VP you need. So far you have not touched any of the once only Action VP. 30 Launchpad Articles is 450 VP, so you only have to use some of the 125 TCredits you got from the SO and you are over 1000 Action VP.
To save the remaining Action VP for as long as possible, you could buy anything from TripleClicks that will give you 500 VP at a cost of under $10. So for less than $50 a month you can be BTL from Day 1. That is the easy way.
Once you get to BTL, you start getting 40-60 CSAs a month and since you now have a team to lead, you can get an extra 120 Action VP a month by sending TeamMails. After a few months, commissions earned cover the expense required to keep the momentum going and if you get those commissions paid into a Payoneer card account, there's another 500 Action VP once only.
Re-qualifying as a BTL every month is a breeze if you have the cash to invest in the first place.
