I myself, have taken a long time to speak to others I don't know so, I would say-

Be patient and get the feel of the water:
1) Smile, Be Confident, Be genuine try to establish a common ground of interest until the conversation eases. ie- family, children, schooling, traveling, work, hobbies

Share your interests:
2) talk about ways you enjoy helping others and what success means to you in days that the economy is unforgiving. Where you would like to see yourself and/or your family.

Share your experience:
3) ask if they would ever consider working from home, shopping online, even building a family business
4) When they believe you are genuine, they will ask you what you think and you can share SFI basics with them, maybe ask for an e-mail to contact them later.

Share your Success:
5) When you e-mail them, add your gateways to your e-mail at the bottom and surely, they will have had a good conversation and look into what you have sent them.

Hopefully, this has opened up some idea of how you could go about talking to others.
Blessings...

I think in such case you may start with the easiest way in referring people to our TripleClicks store, i.e. distribute Gift Cards.

As Gery Carson himself is very aware of this situation, that is MANY people are uncomfortable pitching products and especially business opportunities to others.

He says this about the new gift cards…

"I personally will be freely handing out these cards to friends and family and people I meet at every opportunity because I know I'm giving them something of true value and with no obligation. And I can think of no better or easier way to introduce them to TripleClicks."
(https://www.sfimg.com/GCguide/GCguide)

I agree with him that this Gift Cards are 'awkwardness-free'.

As for the SFI, I rely on those who are more experienced in getting new affiliates, for example S-Builder, PSA To Go, etc..
So I can focus more on assisting existing PSAs.

I hope this answer can help you.

By not being very good at talking to people, I understand you mean you don't really know how to talk to them in a manner that sales, like a professional and experienced salesman would do. Bu there is no need to. One reason of you being here is that you found something that is good for you and attracted you in this business, in the first place. You have your reasons for which you may have looked for and/or followed somebody's invitation to join this community and start your business. Be sure, that most of the reasons you have, they have them, too. Just let them know what you found in SFI and TC, how you benefit from it and that they can benefit also. Once they signed in, the system will sell itself to them and they will quickly find their way to success (with a little initial help from you) and will thank you in the end.

So just tell them, for instance: Hey I found this site, where I started to grow a second income with a big potential for a constant residual income. I'd suggest you try it, too. And let me tell you you don't' want to miss that!
Then you just direct them to your SFI gateway and that's it. From there on, let the snowball get rolling.

Best of luck!

To talk to people about SFI can be difficult no doubt, especially when you're the quiet type. However, it doesn't have to be like that. When talking about SFI I personally find it easier to communicate my message out by talking about SFI like having friendly and fun conversations with friends. It's like you saw a movie that struck your interest and you can't help it, but talk about it with people you know.

Another effective technique that you may find helpful is targeting their emotions. First find out what do they need or want. You need to find what kind of problem(s) they may have that you can use SFI as a solution with. Here are some sample reasons that are attached with emotions:

With the recession and people losing their jobs I'm sure there's no shortage of people looking for something that SFI can provide (jobs).

Most baby boomers are retiring with not enough money to realistically retire on SFI would be perfect solution.

People in the x-generation category most likely don't want some boss telling them what to do, when to do it, how much they earn, they basically don't want someone to control them.

You can use these emotionally charged reasons to strike a conversation literally with anyone at any given time. But you will need to listen to them first and probe on which reason to plug into the conversation.

Hi Nurul,

I was a little shy at talking about somethings to people as well. Although SFI has many marketing materials, this helped me a lot, because it was my work for my business in SFI. So thinking out of the box, I created a small brochure (sort of like a church tract) and carried some of them with me.

I had information about all the things of SFI I was passionate about. I also asked myself, what would someone ask about SFI, that I could put into the brochure? So behind the first page, I listed some of the benefits of SFI. https://www.sfimg.com/Reference/ComparisonChart

The next page I had information about TripleClicks, http://www.tripleclicks.com/
And on the final page I had my contact information in case they wanted more information later on down the line. I had one friend come back to ask me how the business is going and that they are really considering signing up.

I'm a firm believer that once I get my Payoneer Card, that will seal the deal with a few people I've given my little brochure to. As a small tip with strangers. When I overhear a conversation in reference to having their own business. I walk up to them and say, "Excuse me I overheard your conversation and wanted to give you this gift!" I hand them my brochure and quietly walk away.

Hope this helps!

I'd suggest you create a flyer featuring the benefits of SFI and hand this out to interested people. You don't have to say much to them. Just be excited about the SFI opportunity.
Excitement is contagious and people will be curious if you act excited. Then, just hand them your flyer and let them know to contact you if they have any questions.
Try to make the flyer look as professional as possible. Include your name, phone number, email and gateway address 3 or 4 times in the flyer.
Highlight the benefits and the compensation plan. Give them an idea about what it will be like for them if they join SFI. Let them know what they're 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 6th month will be like. Let them know what to expect and what they will be expected to do.
Try to make the flyer a couple of pages. If it's too short, people may not take it seriously. If it's too long, people may not read it.
Unfortunately, you may have to talk to them eventually, but by providing information in a flyer you can reduce the number of questions they may have.

Hi,

If you are not used to talking to other people, it will be even harder to represent a business.
But there's always a point where we start to change, isn't it?
I'm sure that when you notice someone talking about a thing you absolutely and really love, your heart will scream "Join in! Join in!". Even if one is really shy, one just takes a deep breather and just do it, the conversation will be natural for you.
Try to find parts about SFI and TripleClicks that have such a magic for you and you will be able to start up conversations more easily and naturally.

If it then still hurts to talk about other topics, give it your best shot and fight against shyness and doubts. Train yourself with joining forums, talkrounds and so on. Get under the people and just try to talk each day a bit more. The topics aren't relevant for training, just go with the options that suit your interests best.
You can also train against shyness by just beginning to greet strangers that you pass by daily - first with a nod or smile, then when you're ready, greet them with a "Good day".
After some time, you will not only see how easy it is just talking to others but you will also find numerous opportunities to talk about your favorite business.

Be courageous and never forget to smile!

Hi! :)

I gone try to help you with that one the best I could,

Because you’re not the only one I use to be like that too.

I’m coming better now, time and practice is the keys.

*This may sound overwhelming at first, especially if you like to plan things to say out in advance.

The trick is to take a step back and pick one thing, anything, on which to focus your attention.

It takes two to run out of things to talk about, so don't feel like it's all on your shoulders to come up with things to say and extend a conversation forever.

Instead, focus on some lines you can deliver with confidence at the appropriate time.

Here are the 10 tips I learned about turning strangers into friends:

Say the magic word: “Hi”
Detach yourself from the outcome.
Don’t mind what strangers think.
Tolerate rejection.
If you feel the fear, do it anyway.
Practice your speech.
Make them laugh.
Try to discover their passion.
Imagine that the other person is already your friend.
Smile! Peoples feel it in your conversation just by the way you talk.

*Through my experiences, I learned that people are usually friendly and happy to talk to you.

"Remind yourself that you’re not imposing on someone by having a pleasant conversation with them, you’re making their day a bit brighter"

Good Luck and Practice make perfect! :)

There is a simple strategy to get over the fear of talking to people, that is based on 2 pillars.

1. Speak with knowledge. Know what you are talking about and make sure you are a master of the product or service, and if in some odd way you get asked something that you do not know, just admit it, and get back to that person later when you have found the correct answer. This build respect rather than disbelieve.

2. Speak with authority. You can only do this once you have tried and tested the product or service yourself. You can only do this if you believe in the concept that you are selling.

Practice the above and start with people that you know well and are comfortable with.

To speak to people is not a talent, it is a skill we can develop. Practice make perfection, and it will get easier time after time.

Try this one! It worked for me.

Hi Nurul.

I have something to talk to you that might interest you. Listen carefully.

Have you ever dine at a nice restaurant with a nice food? Do you keep quite about it or do you tell you friends about it?! Haven't you bought any nice dress and then your wear it, eventually your friends would ask you from where or which shop did you buy those nice dress. Do you tell them or you keep the secret for yourself? Or if there's a cheap products selling going on, do you go by yourself to get them?

I am sure that all the answer above will be that you'll be talking or telling your friends that there is a nice food at this or that restaurant. You also will say to your friends, "There is a new boutique selling this nice dress at that corner of the road and they are selling at a discounted price if we signup as a loyal buyer!! I am going again tonite to see if there is another cheap jeans! Do you want to come along?!!"

This is a normal thing. Same here to SFI. What is SFI?? It is not an unusual place? The simple thing to say is, " Hey friends, I have join or signup a discounted membership price at TripleClick from the Internet. TripleClick is a store or shop where everything you want fron house products to health products to electronics gadgets are there and as a members, you're given a discounted price. And upon all that, you will be rewarded with cash if you intoduce it to your friends too. And there are more ways to
earn extra cash and it will be a long term income for you and your family to depend on one day."

Say what you've said all this time. Where else those time you're not paid due to to your free advertisement. The owner of that reataurant don't ever say thank to you for bring in more customer for him.

We are not talking lies here. Its a fact.

I hope this will help you talking.
