I smiled when I read your question because the Forum and ASK-SC are two of my favorite SFI resources and I stress to my team that they should use them because they are valuable learning tools. Now you've brought my two favorite resources together with your question!
My tips:
1. My first tip is to go to the as often as you can. You will find out the latest news and updates in the forum. You also get to see how other affiliates feel about the updates. For example, when the new Pricebender auctions came out, I was upset but when I went to the Forum, there was nothing but praise so I went back and took a second look at the newsletter. It wasn't the auction that needed changing but my attitude toward the auction changes.
2. My second tip is to familiarize yourself with the rules of the Forum and the affiliates who regularly post in the forum. You can follow the affiliates whose advice comes from experience and knowledge of what works and what doesn't work. I have found valuable advice in the Forum that kept me from making costly mistakes.
3. Don't be afraid to post in the Forum. If you have a problem or a question that needs an answer, you can post it and receive a fast response. You can also go to the Forum and see if a technical problem you are experiencing is posted there. Last week I found that the Goldstreak questions were taking an extremely long time to advance but I found a post in the Forum so I knew that it meant everyone was experiencing the same thing and that a ticket had been submitted. This cuts down on the number of tickets submitted.
4. You not only receive valuable advice from experienced affiliates, you can also find inspirational and encouraging posts. You will find humorous posts that will make you laugh and occasionally you will find a request for prayer if someone is sick or if a tragic event has taken place.
I think that the reason that I enjoy the Forum so much is that it crates a bond between the affiliates and it gives us a sense of family.
