What is the best way to begin a new month in SFI and achieve success?

A good question that every SFI Affiliates should be asking themselves.
I want to put in my simple suggestion:

First: rate your Sponsor, Co-Sponsor and SFI. Most of the affiliates do not do this probably because they do not log in daily to know what is really happening at SFI.

Second: start making plans of how you are going to get your 1500 VP's to qualify for EA before the end of the month.

Whatever you do, don't drift from month to month. Be deliberate and structured on how you go about running your business.

The first thing that I would recommend doing is to step back and have a look at how you got on the last month. Evaluate your performance during the last month. For those with operational backgrounds - a debrief.

Was it a profitable month? We are here to make money, so this is always an important issue.

Did you achieve your goals for the month?

Hi Antic

I am glad you asked this question. Towards the end of every month we have affiliates requesting help on how to gather the shortfall VPs to either maintain or move to next rank.

I did address this issue with my downline yesterday and posted it on my Leadership Page. The transcript as below:

Quote:
It is a new month. It’s a new beginning. All of us have our monthly scores set to zero, immaterial of whether we are seniors, newbies or in-betweens. So

I find the best way to begin the month is to take a pad and pen and calculate how you are going to achieve your desired ranking for the month.

For action points take into account:
Your 11 daily VP
Your 38 weekly VP [loaded on a Sunday to multiply it by the number of Sundays in the month]
Your 15 monthly VP
If you have one your 100 SO VP

Then you can caluculate the number of points you are short to achieve your rank and determine how you are going to get them.

Staring the month like a Bull in the Stock Markets makes you emotionally invested in the month's success.

- Start the month as a Executive Affiliate – Don't leave your minimum beneficial rank to chance. I have my standing order set to renew by the 3rd of every month so it's out of the way. I no longer have to budget for it and there is zero doubt that I will qualify for my maximum commissions this month.

- Set paid advertising campaigns to start no later than the 10th of the

Always login daily and earn all the easy VP from your To Do list. Be sure to set your monthly goals before the 10th of the month so that you have goals to work toward. Also, rate your Sponsor & Co-Sponsor.

To maintain at least a rank of Executive Affiliate, you will need 1500 VP by the last day of the month. To achieve this, you may choose to have a standing order of 100 TCredits that will give you 1200 VP and only cost $29. You will easily earn the 300 VP that you need to total

This is a very interesting question. To answer this, I am going to speak from my experience, from the stand point of a Bronze Team Leader (BTL)
I have maintained BTL for consecutive months. How am I able to do this?
-Determination and persistence - develop the mind set to achieve and work to let it happen.
-Time management is one key concept to all the actions that are involved. Too,
-Create a clear mental picture of the path, then chart the course to be taken.

It's a nice question, many people will have different opinion to this question. Whichever way individual opinion is best way to them. In my own opinion there are no successful business without plan and money.

You don't just begin a journey without knowing where exactly you are going. While in the previous month write down the steps you will take in the next month to drive your business to success, that's where money come in to finance and execute those steps. Having money without proper

Advertise, Advertise, Advertise! Make a list of free sites - you can Google "free advertising" and find dozens! On the first couple of days, place ads on ALL OF THEM! One for Affiliates/one for TripleClicks products. Then go back and place two more ads per day as part of your tegular routine. Be sure to place as many ads as you can on Monday and Tuesday, as Tuesday is the day most ads are read.

Also, if you get paid at the first of the month, set your Standing Order date for
