How do you build a team where everyone knows they are valued members and part of something special? You have to sponsor new affiliates regularly, build rapport early, and set the expectation within the first 24 hours of an affiliate signing up. There can never be enough said for growing your downline. This is one of my 3 pillars in SFI. Without growth, your network will be dying a painfully slow and certain death! Attrition is typically high in this industry because people don't know how to market effectively and there is always a learning curb. Everyone is not meant to be in business for themselves because they don't have the discipline, nor the knowledge to deal with all of the details of running an online business from home.
Therefore it is necessary to play the numbers game. Professional internet marketers know this and therefore are sorting through all of the prospects that they sponsor in anticipation of the ideal prospect - someone with the drive and willingness to learn and do something new. Once you find that you have a golden nugget! Work with them hand and hand and help them their goals.
Another one of my pillars in SFI is team support and leadership and this is where building rapport is critical. TripleClicks exists online. There is no place in the real world where you can shop TripleClicks. So you have to establish trust and goodwill early on with all of your affiliates if you want an active team. The way I established trust and goodwill is by doing all of the following besides being an awesome sponsor -
1. Try to be visible on the Forum providing info and help.
2. Maximize on my badges. Badges are like awards that validate your efforts.
3. Lead by example.
4. Be accessible in 24 hours or less.
Finally to build value in your members you must show goodwill. I reward my EAs with reassignments, free advertising, gift certificates and praise. Everyone loves special treatment. When your affiliates achieve something worthwhile let them know that you are paying attention to them! Congratulate them. Send them an ecard. If you do all of these things all of your workers will know that they are appreciated and valued members of your team.
