You cannot make anyone do anything in SFI or otherwise unless they want to. This is a fact of life. Communication forms the key to your question. You can advise, mentor, guide, provide encouragement and motivate with various incentives and do your best to highlight the potential of such a program. However, when it comes to taking a decision, it remains with the individual who has signed up with SFI.
1. There are various methods provided by SFI (team-mail, chat, stream, email, e-cards) that helps you start a conversation with the new sign ups. This is the first point of contact you have with them. However, you will be left with an inactive affiliate unless you communicate in simple terms.
2. The other option is to reassign the sign ups to down lines where they will not be any language barriers so they can communicate easily-it helps to inform them why you are doing this.
3. Use gift certificates to motivate; however, as I mentioned earlier, you cannot make anyone do anything. There are instances when these have not been utilized and the gift certificates are returned to the Sponsor.
It is important to also recognize that whilst you are trying every possible means to get your affiliates to remain active, keep in mind the reasons why the affiliate has joined the program. In most cases, the people you recruit are not known to you and therefore you can only begin to communicate with your sign-ups if they respond to you. If you can generate a conversation with your affiliates without bombarding them with a lot of SFI stuff, this may create a relationship with your affiliates that will enable you to get them to start becoming active.
