I’m not sure that there is a yardstick that will judge efforts made by our Sponsors or Co-Sponsors. Everyone is human with different experiences and expectations. What will seem like a good effort to me may not be thought of as a good effort by you.
Personally, I really don’t depend on my Sponsor or Co-Sponsor for anything yet I know that if I do have anything that I need I can count on either one to come through for me. They send out letters once or twice a month and also send through thoughts on the Stream link and this is enough for me. I always rate my Sponsor and Co-Sponsor at the highest level.
If you are the type of person who needs to have a lot of backup and communication you would need to determine what is enough for you.
Do you need your Sponsor to send you a letter every week, even if you don’t have a particular issue?
Or, are you okay with only expecting a communication if you send out a cry for help? This will have to be how you determine an overall score for you Sponsor/Co-Sponsor.
There are a few issues that are more objective that you can use, though.
For example, does your Sponsor/Co-Sponsor ignore your emails? Do they answer your questions but give you the wrong information? If you have an upline like this you would probably want to rate them fairly low.
If you really want to have a way to judge your Sponsor/Co-Sponsor that is completely objective you will need to determine the issues that matter to you and then assign a number or letter (like A, B, C or F grades) to each one.
An example would be to assign an “A” for a Sponsor/Co-Sponsor that accurately answers your questions in a timely manner, an “F” for one who never replies to you.
Assign an “A” for a Sponsor/Co-Sponsor who always sends out a weekly newsletter (if this is important to you) and an “F’ for those who never send a newsletter ever.
In this way, you can evaluate your Sponsor/Co-Sponsor in a manner that gives weight to issues that matter to you.
Finally, you will want to remember that your Sponsor and Co-Sponsor are just like you and me.
In fact we are all Sponsors and we are all Co-Sponsors. Those of us who work hard and are serious about building a team will naturally put a lot more effort in to you and the other PSA’s and CSA’s on your team.
Those of us who are more dedicated to promoting TripleClicks and our own products may not be spending as much time on team building (yet) so you may not hear from them as much – it doesn’t mean that they don’t want to be a good sponsor!
There are also things going on in everyone’s life that may make it very hard for someone to be a Super—Sponsor at the time. Ill health, full time work if we aren’t realizing profits yet, lack of money to invest, demands of family including the lack of support you often find with family members can also steal time away from the time you want to spend on being a good Sponsor.
I guess I’m trying to say that you will not want to be too critical – unless your Sponsor or Co-Sponsor has done something really egregious, it is kinder to exercise a little restraint in criticizing.
You may be in their shoes one day.
