When enrolling in a “work at home business,” like SFI and TripleClicks, you more than likely signed up under someone who was running an ad that you responded to. That person who enrolled you is now your sponsor. Also known as your Up-line or your Team Leader.
One of the first things that you should do as a new affiliate is to get the attention of your sponsor. The ball is in your court at this time. The reason I say this is because your sponsor may be very active in business building and enrolling many new affiliates weekly or daily.
The best way to get the attention of your sponsor is to respond to their mailings to you. Don’t just read the emails they send you, respond back by asking questions or making comments. You should also “white list” your sponsors email address so that none of his/her emails to you end up in your spam file.
Remember your sponsor is not a mind reader – In other words, if you are having problems in one area of your new home business your sponsor will not know how to help you if you are not communicating with him/her. Nothing makes a sponsor feel better than receiving a request for help from one of the teammates in the group.
I know a lot of affiliates will tell you to get on your sponsors top ten “Movers list” by logging in daily and working your “to-do” list. There is just one problem with this advice and that is your personal sponsor may have a few thousand affiliates in his/her team. Their movers list may have up to 50 or more affiliates listed who have been in SFI for a couple of years and have thriving businesses and are constantly in contact with their sponsor. It could take you quite a long time to work your way up to your sponsor’s top ten teammates.
I say the best way to gain maximum support from you sponsor and up-line is to think of how you would want your own down-line teammates contacting you and asking for your advice and support, think of how you would want your down-line teammates to attract your attention then turn all that around and do the same towards your sponsor. I personally believe that is the best way to attract attention.
It will help tremendously if you personally are active in your business building activities because if you do attract your sponsor’s attention they will probably check your VP ledger and see what you are presently doing. If they see good reports as to logging in every day and earning the VP that is needed to succeed then your chances of getting the kind of help you want is greater.
You must realize that support from your sponsor will not make or break your business. If you have a non-responsive sponsor don’t panic! You have many resources within SFI to gain all the assistance that you need to build a successful home business. Check the Forum, ASK SC, a2a friends, up-line beyond your sponsor and 24/7 support from admin.
