I have been bronze for 2 months in a row now and have made it by keeping in touch with my downline which keeps growing from joining the coop, having a standing order or buying enough products every month to make EA. I have also been buying T credits and bidding. This really helps gain versa points, especially at the end of the month. If I am short of cash I use my t credits or MRP's to purchase. Hope this is helpful. Teach your downline to do the same, but not to excced their budget.
