As Gery and his team have implemented fabulous communication tools which can enable us to build up rapport, touch base and enhance our communication channels with all our down line which is so readily available from our Genealogy where we can Identify who are our Movers, those who are new EAS and Team leaders this month to those who were EAs last month and yet to get EA2 and the list goes on including the PSA, CSA, group mailer, the various E-Cards that we can use to better manage and build up a good personal relationship and line of communication with those whom you have identified to have the potential to be your Gems and diamonds.
The nice thing about the SFI system is you do not need to manage your whole down line and, if you are, you actually are not duplicating what the successful leaders are doing. For me, for example, there is no way I could manage 12000 people effectively. The nice thing about it is I don’t have too nor would I want to.
Remember the basic SFI model.
Become and remain an EA2 or Team Leader.
Find 3-5 PSAs and train them to become EA2s and / or team leaders Then train them to do the same It is really that simple.
I don’t mean simple by duration,
I mean simple by process. The time it takes to build up that team is really up to you. By team, I mean your front line 3 or 5 PSAs. It is this front line 3 or 5 PSA that you should devote your full attention to at first. This is your magic line so to speak. What I mean is this is where all the magic begins.
The beauty of the system and why you don’t need to manage your entire line is you don’t need to as you will leverage your line to do that for you and your front line’s front line and their front line’s front line for up to 12 levels being a Platinum Member.
This is where we get the term leveraged income. Right now you are being leveraged by your sponsor and more so by your UPLINE sponsor ‘s sponsor and so on. The beauty of leveraged income is bigger and wider and deeper your down line goes, the less your upstream need to work as you now leverage the work of others in your down line like you are today by your upline and you not only earn leverage income but residual income. Income that comes month after month forever.
Now that you know why you don’t need to manage your entire down line and just focus on your first generation line, we can focus on the importance of what personalized attention you do need to give and to whom. Remember your goal is to build a solid team of 5 PSAs. This takes time and is sped up or slowed down by you and your time and capital invested. I will assume that you know how to find PSAs and focus on what you should do with the ones you do find.
Quite simply put, treat your front line 5 like you need them to live. Without them you will die. They are your air so to speak. Devote your time and attention on finding 5 solid PSAs and then train them well to each build their team of 5.
By doing this, you can better manage and focus on small groups and manage them effectively too and for the long term. If you try to support everyone and everything, you will become overwhelmed and most likely burn out or quit when you find out that your work is going for not because you are stretched way too thin. Sound familiar?
Getting those solid front five will take time. Some can do that in months some years but in the end it’s the quality of those front five that will drive the effectiveness of your entire line. Therefore, I highly recommend that you put in considerable effort up front to build a high quality, highly effective front line and then incentive-vise and motivate them until they become self guiding and repeat or duplicate what you are doing.
This is where duplication is key, if you want your front line to be highly effective like you, you better be sure that you are the leader you want them to be and doing what you are asking of them and show proof.
*Earn every badge you can no need to. Overspend.
* Become a force in the forum Bring in. constant leads Offer reassignments and coops to your line Aim high and think big Be number one in everything where you can This will make your job of building much easier as people begin to come to you like clockwork rather than you having to find them.
It’s all about strategy and efficiency and then taking that efficient, strategic plan to action effectively.
This is how you mange a large down line effectively and efficiently and will pay off down the line, no pun intended in major ways. Success takes hard work but it also rewards you in major ways. SFI is simple by process. Where it gets hard is staying motivated, persistent, consistent and effective when you go through times where you feel you are not getting very far. If you keep things small and simple that will take you farther and greater than trying to do it all yourself. Leverage others and duplicate what works and you will hit your mark. But if you try to get too creative and complex and deviate to far, you may get nowhere.
To your success. Good luck.
