I would make sure that I really, truly understood everything that I read. I thought I understood it, but maybe I didn’t really, really understand everything. Then I wouldn't feel like I am stumbling around in the dark. You really need to understand all of the materials and then take action. Although I learn something new every day, I feel like I should have spent more time understanding. So I am trying to understand and implement at the same time. I also would have worked more with my daughter.

To me, I will put in mind to build my down line as fast as possible. This requires some investment in time and money.
For investment in time, I will study the SFI basics with a lot of attention because it contain all the information necessary to kick-start the business. I will put into practice all the activities recommended there of which some requires some financial investment.
For financial investment, I will place a standing order for S-Builder co-op, PSA To Go and 100 pack Tcredits.

After reading all over again and working as we should, we all know what are our mistakes and we keep them away from our affiliates.
Firstly, I would take it slow. Saving VP for the next month is smart thing to do when you already have the needed points for achieving EA rank for the month.
Secondly, not to rush in progress. Being BTL at the very first month with no team to follow me and to make my structure stable is difficult. Definitely, taking this work step by step is the best any affiliate

Hello Manuella. Good question. The moment I checked in, and I followed the lessons of the Launchpad, I began to take the first information to start my own business, followed closely by my sponsor, who followed me every day. If I start now, with all the information that I have accumulated, I would do the same things without neglecting anything. I would start to earn 15 points VP (VersaPoints) for each lesson, and every day I will dedicate myself to accumulate points by following the directions from

I would definitely spend more time learning and reading. I have come to a situation where I have lost a lot of VersaPoints just because I didn't spent enough time reading and studying new parts of SFI before using them. Knowledge really is power and nobody can take it away from us! As in life, so in SFI! Sure, a lot of times we just skip some things because they seem boring and we would rather do something fun instead but if we just stop and think for a second, we might realize that every second

I would do nothing differently. I would read the information SFI have
gave me. I realize had to do a lot of reading which helped me in reaching
my goals. I did receive the two hundred versa points which helped me
obtain my goal for that day. I later receive advice from my sponsor
which help me out a lot. I realize in this business it is good to follow your
leader advice. I knew it was detrimental to do my to-do list. Some
large amounts of versa points such as uploading

Few things readily comes to mind:
1. I will click on "Hey New Affiliate, Not sure how to get started? Click Here!" button at my SFI home page to know what are priority things for me first.

2. I will have a thorough discussion with my sponsor to know how best to succeed in the business.

3. Go through training materials from time to time on how I can improve on myself.

4. Engage in teamwork from day one with my team members because Together Everyone

Hi Manuella,

if I could cmpletely start over with SFI, first of all I would keep some of my get started actions, so that I don t collect much more than 1500 VP in the first month.

I would use them smartly in the next few month, cause it gets harder to collect action VP s later on, untill you get your first EA2 in your team.

I would set my standing order for 125 TCredits allready in the second month, I think that is soon enough, so it is easier to gain BTL status

If I could start over completely, knowing what I know now, the first thing I would have done is completed my "getting started" actions on the first day, so I could have gotten some bonus points and my Fast Track badge and the bonus 200VP. Next, I would have contacted my sponsor and my entire upline chain, as well; they have been very helpful and have provided resources and information that I'm glad to have. After that, I probably would have started listing products and services on TripleClicks

Well, first of all, I would stay in E365 competition, couse right now I am not in. Secondly, I will make my standing order as soon as possible. And I would not spent all my T-credits in a single day, like I was with my first 125 T-credits pack...
Most important thing I would buy some PSA-s and S-builder, couse I am not good in marketing and advertising. Everything else I am doing now I will keep doing: daily, weekly and monthly tasks, some games and a lot of readings and learnings.
I am
