This is an interesting question.
First of all, we probably think on family and friends. But is it really good. In my opinion this is not good. All these people wants usually too much from you. They do not want to read. They always ask you. Sometimes they want also from you doing their work. But you do not have time for all these questions. Especially not for their work. Usually, these are also the biggest doubters.
When is the right time that to offer them cooperation?

It's been said your family and your friends are your best critics, so I would promote SFI to the ones closet to me, family and friends are a plus for their negativity and their positive reactions, but do not let the criticisms of those that's close to you persuade you in your decision of becoming that "millionaire in the making" your family and friends may or may not support your ideas in promoting online marketing but they will at least tell you what they think.

I don't think it's as cut-and-dried as that. I have some friends who are too averse to this type of opportunity--affiliate marketing is just not for them--and I could talk to them for weeks at a time until the point where they refuse to talk to me! Some of them, however, find this an interesting side-opportunity. The same is true among strangers.

Really, there is a trade-off here, and you have to decide what feels right when you think about it: With friends, you know more about their

Gordana Pejovic,

That is a good question.

I would promote to both my family and total strangers for you never know how the outcome is going to go. I just contacted my niece in the mainland and she is interested in it because that is what she does and she loves to send e-mails to strangers. So I would say yes to do both family members and total strangers. PSA To Go is total strangers. Invest in it, I do anyway. Buy a e-mail list and send out to those people which is total strangers.

Promoting SFI and TripleClicks to family and friends is a great idea. Why not share your income opportunities with the people you love?
However, promoting to "strangers" is also a great idea simply because if people do not know about your internet business, how can they buy anything? You should promote to everyone you can, with the help of your friends and family. You are creating duplication as well as a large customer base.

Good question
From my experiences tell everyone about SFI Advertise your business with a smile, be happy when you talk about a job that everyone can see how satisfied and how much this business meets and makes you happy.
Personally, I understanding met with friends and strangers, and they all wanted to do this job some will already successful team leaders.The family can only limits you to work through their negative comments.Abouth advertise SFI where and how you get to talk capabilities

I would say to both. Why sell yourself short. The best advise to to talk to as many people as you possibly can about SFI.

I would definitely have proof that this is working for family members though. At least in my case I would want to have proof. My family would think it is a another scam if I didn't.

Hope this helps.

Have a great day!

For a start allways is better to start to promote sfi with close frields and family just remember the rules here 1 per household is allowed.

Than when you will have 5 or more active PSA you can start the duplication.

After that promote sfi on everybody you see. Watch them as potencial customer watch them like money!! and give the best of you to insert them in your team than learn them everything you know.

Think this will help you.

Good luck with the new

Hello!

You need to know that everybody are welcome here!
This is a job of future so we all deserve to be in it!

I recommend that you first start with your friends and family. Try to talk live with people as much as you can because it much more easier and you you can explain SFI much better. Call your friends to your home, make something like seminar, go to your SFI profile and show them how it all works.

Also, there are thousands of people that visits advertising

Strangers are better, simply because they don't know you and will pay more attention to what you are showing them, family has this wait and see attitude,it's very hard to get them to trust what you say is fact until they see results,then most family members will not participate in your business even after they see your progress, they seem to have that wait and see attitude, stick with strangers, that;s where your success lies.
