Taking initiative is one of the requirements I expect my prospects to have. This is very important because it trains the affiliates to find solutions for such difficulties or constraints If you step in to help them out at this starting junction of their business, they will not work independently. It will be a lesson in itself to know which affiliate will work well under minimum guidance and I believe you should develop this characteristic in all your affiliates.
I would like to put myself in the shoes of the affiliates who have limited access to the computer and then decide the next step. Where I come from, there is no shortage of cyber cafes where affiliates can spend some time handling their business. Some such cafes are open after working hours and this can facilitate the affiliate's easy access to a computer. I have one affiliate who has a smart phone but there are certain tasks she can handle easily using a computer and she visits a cyber cafe close to her work place and home. I never asked her to.
This is why whenever I am recruiting or have advertised SFI, I ensure that I make it very clear that the affiliates should have access to the internet 24/7 and having a smart phone would help. For those affiliates who want to work, they will find a way to and not having a computer is not a deterrent at all, it only makes it easier.
