Always try to find the positives even in the negatives and then the life is more beautiful.

There may be pessimistic and not much optimistic people in your team, but how you can convince them and make them active to do positive things, from there your success starts.

If you need to attract your inactive and doubtful customers to your ECA, it is for you to take all the positive steps. Shed the lethargic attitude and move forward with all the confidence and determination. Have

"How can I build a successful SFI business when I have a team of inactive affiliates and doubtful customers for my TripleClicks store?"

Building a business of any kind is plagued by challenges of different kinds. For those of us who are serious about building our business here at SFI, we have to deal with having numerous inactive affiliates. As we all know our success is determined by the level of our affiliates’ activity or lack thereof.

I must say it takes patience,

Hi Imelda,
thank you for this question.You are not alone.Most of us are having a lot of inactive affiliates in our team.You have to keep working on finding at least five really hard workers and teach them to do everything you're doing.And,believe it or not,every now and than,they do come along.Duplication is the key.
Recently,there was a post on Forum written by an affiliate who joined SFI a long time ago.He was inactive for 9 years.And than suddenly,he decided to start all over again,from

You have posed a question that most of our affiliates are facing and therefore a big challenge in their SFI venture.

Here’s what you can do:

- Recall why you joined SFI and TripleClicks in the first place, do you have the passion, do you have what it takes to stick to your primary goal as you stated in your profile when you joined?

- Focus on your vision. SFI encourages us to “Aim High and Dream Big!”. Are you losing your focus on this and paying much attention

Greetings Ms. Imelda Borrega.
Your question is the crux of all SFI business development and success achievement. SFI has been in existence for 15 years. It has been very successful. From the inception of SFI, one can safely say that every affiliate has had his/her fair share of inactive affiliates and skeptical prospects, being potential Tripleclicks customers or people seeking to launch their own home based business.

Despite such constraints, all the currently active and successful

This is a very good question.
It is easy to get discouraged with SFI sometimes when you have inactive affiliates.
Here is what I tend to do to divide the movers from the in actives.
1. I send a welcome email as soon as any new person joins.
2. the second day I send an e-card encouraging them to remain active and participate in the E365 contest.
3. I send out a weekly email to all my genealogy with the news of the week and or encouraging tips to get any in actives interested.
4.

I am assuming that your inactive affiliates have come to you online, perhaps you need to change your approach and try out a different method of duplication.

For your business to be successful you need the following
- a regular stream of affiliates who will take the business seriously and therefore support your initiatives to become successful
- recruit affiliates who you know personally and who share the same passion as you do to earn a living online
- introduce customers

One of the unfortunate things about the internet is the number of people who still think once they have joined a program the money will come rolling in even if they do nothing.

You will get those that sign up because they have come through a pay per sign up program. they actually get paid to sign up. A lot of them have not even read anything about the program they are joining and are very unlikely to even log in after the initial sign up.

There are also those that will sign

Hello Imeda,

Your question has two parts, so I am going to start with the first part about building a successful SFI business when I have a team of inactive affiliates.

I'm sure that you do realize that if you do not have active members than you cannot build up a business, right?

Please don't put all of your focus on your inactive team members.

Yes, keep the communication open each week by sending your weekly group mails, because you do not know if one

First of all, I wanted to say that I LOVE the way that you made that question.

Now, on to the answer to your question.

The truth is that you are 100% correct, it is impossible to build a successful SFI business with inactive affiliates & doubtful customers. It doesn't matter how great a plan, if you don't have people to help you implement it, it won't work.

For that reason I am saying, keep advertising. You see, if you have many inactive affiliates, you should
