As SFI sponsors, our challenge is to find a way to pass our knowledge and experience to our affiliates who have a dream of building a home business but lack the knowledge and skills to make it happen. They need encouragement, motivation and incentives.
To encourage people to join your team, you should create a competition/contest or offer a service. Offer to help them build their own blog/website. Offer to get them started right by assisting in advertising their gateways. It is unrealistic to expect someone with no knowledge of marketing, advertising, and building a business to adapt to the SFI opportunity quickly.
Offer to provide one-on-one personal training and hand-holding.
You could offer a co-op to place referrals in their downline, or you could offer an incentive such as join me in SFI and get this special free bonus... which could be a great product that you've purchased resell rights to.
Instead of just recommending that someone join SFI and sharing your affiliate link, create a value-added offer of service that includes joining SFI as a requirement for receiving your service. This will work best when your service is designed or geared to help your SFI referral succeed with SFI.
One of my friends was successful in applying the following example:
Setup a series of email letters that are used to promote SFI into an autoresponder service. Find a place that helps you pull in subscribers to this autoresponder series and create a special offer to setup the exact same email follow-up campaign you are using to promote SFI for your referrals.
Just start trying new things and be as creative and you can be. The possibilities are unlimited.
