You must understand the job or role of a Sponsor, simply put your sponsor is your teacher. So the job of being a Sponsor is to help you get started on SFI by giving you the SFI basics article but on your part you have to take your time to read and take notes and review until you understand well. So what am I saying? Is that your sponsor can only provide assistance but they cannot do the work for you. So as an example your sponsor shows you how to complete the getting started actions to help you get the first 500 points to achieve fast track but you cannot expect your sponsor to set up the standing order and pay it for you.
So you ask how much you should rely on your sponsor to succeed on SFI the answer should be about 50% and the other 50% should be on yourself.
You should rely on your sponsor up to a certain point as a source of information but the main source of info is all over the affiliate center so you should also use that to teach yourself so don't put all your eggs in one basket.
Did you read the SFI news? I mean did you see the article called "Tap into Your Upline" This means that you don't just get information from your sponsor you should also get in touch with your co sponsor and other members of your upline team because they may have something of value to offer for example they may add you to their advertising coop or they may be holding a contest and you could win something like TCredits, PSA etc...
So remember you rely on your sponsor to teach you and help you get adequate training but do not rely only on your Sponsor you should also tap into your upline team and guess what? SFI corporate can also help you through online support, Telephone or even live chat, but you should also go to the forum to look for well informed affiliates so you can choose 10 of them as A2a friends and you can also follow some of them.
