I believe you can do this by displaying a caring attitude.
We all want to be loved, to be well thought of, to be appreciated and to be respected. If your affiliates think of you as a caring and loving sponsor that genuinely wants all her affiliates to succeed you will have no problems at all. You will most likely have a very committed and active team of affiliates.
Well how do you do this?
Right from the word go – welcome them. Let them know that you are here for them whenever they need help. Tell them a little about yourself and let them know that you are in this together with them. This is a partnership and that you are here to help and support them in growing their businesses.
Regularly send them tips and encouraging messages. Acknowledge their successes and any milestones they have achieved. If you see any actions they need to do in order to progress, let them know, suggesting to them what to do. The language you use must be respectful and encouraging – suggesting rather than directing. Never give them the impression that you are telling them how to run their business. Remember, their business is their business. Your role is to provide them the training, encouragement and support. Always remember this when communicating with your affiliates.
Those badges on your profile also play an important part in encouraging your affiliates. Point them out to your affiliates. If you are encouraging them to bid at the auctions, a Winner at the auction badge in your profile tells them that you participate in the auctions, if you are encouraging them to be Fast Tracker, a Fast Tracker badge on your profile will certainly help. In other words make sure you are also doing what you are suggesting to them they should do.
Run some team competitions with meaningful prizes – those that would grow their businesses eg advertising campaigns etc.. Let them feel that they are part of a team and encourage them to come to you if they need help with any aspect of the business. When they come to you for help, respond as soon as possible – within 24 hrs if possible.
All these simply mean that you have to be an awesome sponsor – be the very best sponsor you can. Focus on the needs of your affiliates - focus on their developments - focus on growing their businesses - your success will naturally follow if they are successful.
