Well this is certainly not only a timely but thought provoking question I guess if I could completely re start all over with SFI on a new page today I would be pursuing the following:

To quickly earn 500 VERSA Points so that I qualify for the FAST TRACK Bonus and wall of fame ( fact is I miss out on it sigh .) and thereafter to go slow and read understand and apply what you have learn from SFI over the first 30 days to enable you to make it to Executive AFFIliate

To sat up and commit to a Standing order of 1500 VERSA points ( I would buy 125 Tcredits pack and throw in a S Bulder COOP to build up my regular sponsoring )

TO focus on the E365 Challenge over the next 12 months to not only win it but also enable it to build up my business concurrently

TO set up an ECA store and list stuff on the Tripleclicks store to maximize revenue and generate multiple streams of income

To post ads and make effort every day to promote the business and treat it seriously as a real business to grow it in whatever ways I can and make use of all that is readily available SFI resources out there as well as other platforms.

All the best as we all know Rome cannot be built in 1 day so let's go for it and don't give up .

See you at the top soon

This is a great question and I always thought of it.
IF I start SFI today, I would do the following:
1- I will contact my sponsor and co-sponsor to ask about every thing I don’t know.
2- I read many articles about SFI and TripleClicks so as to understand the basics of SFI.
3- I log daily into SFI and press the buttons of To- Do- Lists after reading the information.
4- I read the launchpads thoroughly so as to understand the basics and never get confused.
5- I do the weekly actions every week and never miss a week.
6- I do the monthly actions in the beginning of the month.
7- I check the latest items of TripleClick daily.
8- I try to get 500 Versapoints the first day to get the badge of fast track.
9- I do the getting started actions.. Be careful to do part of them and leave the rest to the second month.
try to get only1500 versapoints to be excutive affiliate after one month.
10- I become a 2A2 member in the first month.
11- I vote for ten questions daily.
12- I enter the Daily Grand every day.
13- I play one of the zebra games daily.
14- I will learn bidding and share in it.
15- I will choose active a2a friends who I can exchange ideas with them.
16- I will never loose my CSAs because now I know who are they.
17- I will be a 365 finalist because now I know what it means.
18- I will pay knockout Trivia daily and try to win.
19- I will ask questions at the forum.
20- I will set a standing order from my first month.

Hope this explanation helps new affiliates what to do from the beginning.

Well when I started with SFI, I worked too fast.

I completed all of my LAUNCHPAD in just a few days.

I spent a lot of money on Tcredits.

I bid on auctions without really knowing what I was doing.

I did not set up a Standing Order right away, instead I used my money for auctions.

As a result of all of these actions, I became a Silver Team Leader in less than a month.

Needless to say I have not been Silver Team Leader since.

I also have a lot of Versa Points that will start to expire which will really throw me out of the front running in my 365 Class.

So if I had the start is SFI to do over again I would:

1. Set up a Standing Order instead of just purchasing Tcredits.

2. I would do the LAUNCHPAD in a timely manner.

3. I would, (as I do now) be more careful about bidding on auctions.

4. I would use my Tcredits more wisely.

These are just the main actions I wish I had not done.

Hope this helps those of you who are new to SFI and TripleClicks.

If I could start over knowing what I know today, I would not use up all my "one-time" VP too quickly.

I started in April, 2014 and I was excited and wanted to learn everything. I moved through things at a fast pace, reading and taking notes. I made STL within the first few days, and boy did I regret it. I do wish I did know then what I know now.

If I could write a letter to myself, I would tell myself to take it slower and don't rush. I would tell myself:

* Do get the Fast Track bonus (I did get it and those bonus VP are awesome)

* Do read everything carefully and take notes

* Don't rush to start recruiting and promoting the business before you fully understand what you need to do.

* Do listen to your sponsor and upline (I love my sponsor, she is AWESOME!)

* If you just have to read ahead on the launchpad lessons ... don't claim all the VP. Ge ahead and read and take notes, but claim the VP on the day and time it is supposed to be claimed.

For the most part, other than the fact that I rushed through the "one-time" VP, I wouldn't change much of what I have done in getting my business started.

In short:
-Fast Track
-Not claim VersaPoints on the extra reads within the first month
-Reach out to upline, a2a friends, forum, anyone for information, help to grow my business
-Participate in the Forum from the beginning

FAST TRACK
It would be lovely if I could start over, because I would utilize the fast track. I did not understand the fast track and missed the opportunity. I have been active since the day I signed up with SFI; however, I did not complete my profile and the necessary requirements for fast track within the first 24 hours, because I did not understand it, nor did I have a sponsor/co-sponsor guide me on it.

NOT CLAIM VERSAPOINTS
The next thing I would do is NOT claim the VersaPoints for reading the extra information provided on the home tab. I am a quick reader and able to understand information I read. I earned STL status the first month; but did not retained the status or returned to STL since joining in February 2013. I managed to maintain BTL for several months. However due to health and funds, I am hovering at EA2, but I am okay at this level, since I am still working on my business. I read the LaunchPad lesssons as instructed-one a day.

REACH OUT
The third thing I would do is pester my upline, a2a friends, forum, and anyone else I could for information at the beginning, as I have a sponsor who has never responsed to my emails and requests and I have been assigned 3 different co-sponsors now. Thus, I proudly state, “My current place within SFI is due to my own hard work.” I have persisted in my own learning, research and have SLOWLY grown in my understanding on how internet network marketing works. I still have a long way to go, but I am willing to grow. I know I still lack advertising knowledge and know how; thus, I continue to read, seek information and learn.

PARTICIPATE IN FORUM
The fourth thing I would do is be more active from the beginning in the Forum. I would read at the beginning as I did when I finally joined and then start participating when I felt I had information to contribute as I have been doing. I have found the Forum to be a wealth of information and helpful if a person actively follows through with suggestions made by other members.

CORRECTION: I LIKE WHERE I AM
You know what, now that I have written this, I think I am okay with where I am at. Yes, sometimes it is nice to start over; however, I have worked hard for where I am currently at with my SFI business and I do not want to give up what I have gained. As we often read in the quotations shared with us in the Tips tab, we can learn from our failure. I have.

So, let us go forward with our work.

Wow - this is a great question. I hope the 'newbies' that are reading this question and all the answers that are given will pay attention. After all, hindsight is 20/20!

This is something that I actually think about quite often. I joined SFI several years ago and then went on my hunt for the 'next shiny object' instead of buckling down, learning SFI and working it like a business.

I was so hung up on all of the silly promises out there - that if you just buy this program you will make your money back in 1 hour or less. Or, even better, you will be a millionaire within the next 2 weeks!

These con artists would always show you the "proof" with fake checking account with a gazillion dollars in it or win you over with their story of 'rags to riches" - sometimes it would even be from a real-life ex-stripper!

I would get conned in to these rip-offs, then get disgusted with it all and come back to SFI - enough to keep from getting kicked out but not enough to get anywhere.

When I finally figured out that there is no top-secret millionaire making push button software that would make me rich, I came back to SFI for good.

What I wish I had done differently? Not wasted all of the money and time chasing the next shiny object! If I had invested that time and that money in SFI instead of a bunch of broken promises, I probably would be much more successful by now!

I look back on those wasted years and wasted money as a very expensive education. And since there is no such thing as wasted education, I'm glad I learned the lesson.

I just hope that this will resonate with someone who will stop wasting their time and money and get ahead with a real business like SFI!

Hind sight, isn't it great!

I embarrassingly admit, I would have paid closer attention to SFI's directions.
And, fully absorbed all of the Launchpad, Intermediate and Training Materials
in the first 30 days.

Knowledge is key to success. With the knowledge you can then perform the actions with
greater proficiency to achieve success.

The second thing is I would have secured a Standing Order much sooner for 1500 VP, monthly.
Using the 125 TCredit purchase, which is the best option in my opinion,
to maintain TL Status.
Initially the cost my be difficult, but, the gains out weigh the expense.
Being and acting in a Team Leader capacity only improves your ability to succeed
with SFI.

Following the above will have eliminated much of the trial and error
I had to pursue to perfect my advertising and marketing skills.

Next, I would have begun selling in my TConnect store. Which I never did.
I opened an ECA store much later.
My error. There are many items you can sell, arrange to sell and build on your income.
Some affiliates survive on products they sell on an monthly basis.

I would have pursued assisting others in selling their good products much sooner.
It is a great way to build you PRMs, as well as, alert your team to products you feel are worthy.
It is your area of comfort and expertise that will determine the amount of time you
devote to the TC Store possibilities.

Lastly, I would have started advertising immediately. Every day and every hour I had available to me.

Advertising is an absolute necessary action whether you are building your downline
or promoting the TC Store.

I hope you find this helpful.

If I could start over in SFI with the knowledge that I have now, I would not delay taking the appropriate actions to grow my down line and educate them on SFI. Truly the power of SFI lies in leverage income across generations. Instead of sitting idle and doing nothing take action on the information that you have.

Too many affiliates try to learn everything there is to know about SFI. What happens is they become paralyzed into inactivity because they are overwhelmed by all the information. Some of the information is not relevant and some is very relevant; nevertheless, it does not benefit the affiliate to have head knowledge with the motivation and drive to carry it out.

Therefore, I say learn as you earn. Never let a day go by that you are not actively learning and growing your business. Finally, be realistic about your expectations. Many new affiliates are often disillusioned about which actions they should focus on. I say focus on actions that create sales and grow your down line. Everything else is secondary.

Thank you Manuella for your question where I have a full chance to share my thoughts with so many affiliates.

And if I am given a chance to start over here are a few things that I will do.

1.With in 24 hours of Sign up, will score 500 VP and earn 200 VP bonus plus " FAST TRACK" Badge- I miss this badge on my Affiliate center even if it is full of many milestone badges.
2. Will send commitment message to sponsor immediately. I did it weeks later after I signed up.
3.Instantly order Triple clicks Wave 3-W3- It gets me 5 T credits and 50 MRP every month and chance to win in weekly draw. I think I ordered it in the second month.
4.Earn 1500 VP in first month using getting started and intermediate action and simultaneously start advertising my gateways so as to develop my down line as soon as possible. I will save remaining Imtermediate Points for the next month. It will help me getting EA2 level next month.
5. Will make my first Standing order into S builder co-op or PSA to go. -I did not understand the need of developing a solid team of PSAs for LEVERAGING The Income opportunity when I joined.
6.Learn how to and where to advertise Tripleclicks products , auctions,Knock out Trivia, effectively. NOW i realize that it is more important to Make Personally Referred TC Members( PRMs) for generating a RESIDUAL INCOME.
7. Start Building my Blog. I still am not good in writing a blog that will help me drive my SFI/ TRIPLECLICKS business
8.Will focus on new ECA registration. This will give me royalties.
9. I would make SFI my full time Business as Now I KNOW SFI's real Potential and I am capable to make a success in it as A FULL TIME SFI business.

As I am writing this answer I am questioning myself whether really I do want to start over again? The Answer is NO. ( As such If I want to start over I will have to wait for 6 months after opting out) . Some of the things I mentioned above can be done without Starting over. I do not regret the past , I am ready to make my future.

Hope you like my answer.
