To impress upon your affiliates the importance of grabbing the daily action points I think you might equate it to higher education.
In elementary school we have to attend everyday generally because our parents either take us there or put us on the school bus that goes nowhere else but to classes. Then in Junior High and High School the teachers take attendance and our parents reduce our allowances if we cut too many learning sessions.
Once a student is in college or university, the onus is on them to attend the lectures (and stay awake through them). The learning an absentee pupil misses is gone and even borrowing crib notes from a roommate can't bring it back. The very same is true for Daily Action Points, if they are missed in a day, they are gone and they can't even be bought back.
Many people here are under financial restraints and they can't buy the SO that gives sales points. I'm not one but I certainly do admire the tenacity it must take to gain each point the hard way. For myself, I do have a SO that gets me to EA status automatically but I still have to scratch and claw to make it to Bronze Team Leader. I need all of the daily action points too. Action points are worth more than money to me.
I need and want the daily points just as you do and just as your affiliates should. I expect I will as well when I'm striving for STL, then GTL, and then platinum. The action points are pivotal to success at whichever level (maybe not for Diamonds who have it made in the shade).
The journey to both matriculation and to financial independence requires seeing to all of the stages and grades along the way. That means daily points and/or daily classes but I think the monetary rewards from SFI will make me feel better than my diploma on the wall does.
If relating the foregoing doesn't impress upon them the importance of daily action points, then threaten to rap their knuckles with a ruler. That always worked versus me.
