It can be difficult convincing English speaking people to join SFI. Convincing people who do not speak English would be the same if it is also your language.
If you cannot speak their language, convincing them may not be possible due to lack of understanding. Working with them will be difficult.
If you speak their language a little, but well enough, you could simply promote SFI to these people the best way you can. It will be easier to work with them if you can do some translation for them.
Share knowledge about SFI, the number of countries that are involved and the number of languages.
If their language is also yours, assure them that at SFI there are many affiliates from their country and many who speak their language. Share the fact that these affiliates are doing well too. If you have figures, you can give them an estimate of how many.
You can also use yourself as an example, tell your story.
You can give them figures of the number of ECA's that are from their country and links to reach them.
Sharing knowledge of the translator tool and other language resources at SFI will relieve any fears.
Hope this helps!
