When someone starts out with SFI there is a lot to be learned first, even before you can think of becoming a Team Leader. Encourage them to log in every day and read the Tips, Forum Posts, News, Launchpad Lessons, Ask SC questions and answers and all other available training materials.
Your task as their Team Leader is to guide them in the right direction and that is to become Executive Affiliate (EA) first and stay that for at least the first 2 months while learning and while it’s still easy to gather the necessary 1500VersaPoints by doing the free actions on their To Do List. Tell them about Fast Track and how to achieve it by doing just enough of their Getting Started Actions and Intermediate Actions as necessary to gather 500VP to get the Fast Track Badge and an additional 200 bonus VP. Also tell them about the E365 contest and how to stay in contention, by keeping their VP above the green line in the first 6 weeks.
In the meantime move them to log in every day and do their Daily, Weekly and Monthly Actions for a further 497VP per month. With the above 700VP it give them 1197VP so far for the month, a shortfall of 303VP for the first month. To make that up, encourage them to study the Launchpad Lessons, 1 per day every day for their first 30 days and to answer the question about that lesson every day. By doing that, they not only learn a lot about SFI and marketing, but also gather 15 VersaPoints for each lesson. That is a further 450VP. Because they actually only short 303VP for the first month, they can review all 30 lessons but answer only the first 20 questions for 300VP and save the rest for the next month.Be creative with the 3VP that still short.
In their second month they must log in again every day and do their Daily, Weekly and Monthly Actions for 497VP and then review all the Launchpad Lessons again and answer the other 10 questions for 150VP, giving them a total of 647VP so far for the month. For the remaining 853VP they short to become EA again, they must just complete the balance of their Getting Started and Intermediate Actions. They will give them 645VP for a total of 1292 free VP for the month, leaving them with a shortfall of only 208VP for the second month. That can be made up easily by winning in the E365 contest, DailyGrand or by Transfer buying, meaning changing their shopping habits and buy the stuff they normally buy elsewhere from their own shop TripleClicks. If they gathered more than $20 in their SFI account they will qualify for a Payoneer debit card and for that earn 500VP pushing them over 1500VP, a little closer to Team Leader status.
If they used all these free actions in their first month to become Team Leader quickly, they will have to spend money from their second month to maintain their status. Staying EA for that time give them a chance to learn.
While they are doing all this they must also build a team by advertising and enrolling PSA’s. When they have a big enough team they will be able to become Team Leader more easily by their team’s efforts and by getting VP for support of their EA2's and Team Leaders later on.They must just duplicate what they have done.
Bottom line is that it’s better to become Team Leader only when you have a team.
On the other side, some can argue that by becoming a Team Leader they can get more CSA’s from SFI and that way build their team, and that is true, but it’s going to cost you money wise at first.
