In my opinion it is better to pursue PSAs more than CSAs because your benefits are greater in relation to Direct Commissions.You earn 45% of CV on product from every purchase they make and you receive duplication VP for each PSA that you support to EA and above every month and you also earn matching VP if you are BTL and above.You also have more control with your PSAs seeing that you are their leader.

For CSAs you earn 15% of CV of products on any purchases they make but you do not earn duplication VP or matching VP.
But all in all it is great to have both ACTIVE PSAs and CSAs for this is the way to huge commissions monthly especially if you are very active at your store.

Easy answer is both. They both earn you commissions in the end. However they are both different things and are attained different ways so you can actively pursue both at the same time.

PSA's ( Personally Sponsored Affiliates) are the people that you bring in through your work in advertising the SFI program. These folks are going to give you a bigger chunk of the commissions and through the power of duplication you can teach them to do the same things that you have done. In this way you get even more perks such as Matching VP which will earn you more shares in the TC executive pool every month and hence more money.

CSA's ( Co-Sponsored Affiliates) are more like a reward for different VP milestones, you automatically get 2 when you hit EA every month, and you get a certain amount of shares of second hand CSA's when you achieve teamleader positions.

You can also bid on both at the pricebenders auction which I would say bidding on PSA's would be better for the money that bidding on CSA's but that is just my opinion there.

I conclusion go for both and teach both how to duplicate the way you do.

Your question needs some clarification.

You can acquire your personally referred affiliates (PSAs) through:

-Advertising campaign that includes your SFI gateways

- By purchasing at TripleClicks ECAs

- Bidding at Pricebenders Auctions

You acquire your co-sponsored affiliates (CSAs) through:

- Bidding at Pricebenders

- Win CSAs in the Daily Grand and E365 finalist drawing

- You get 2 CSAs every time you achieve EA2

- You’ll be assigned shares of second home CSAs every time you re-qualified as a Team Leader

If you want to build and grow your SFI business, you’ll need to pursue them both. You have the potential of expanding your team of PSAs through duplication. In terms of compensation plan, you’ll be earning 45% of their purchases, earn Matching VPs for a higher commission every month and have the potential to establish residual income.

With your CSAs, you’ll earn 15% of their purchases and if you’re Team Leader you are also entitled to Matching VPs. You must maintain EA status to retain any CSAs assigned under you otherwise you’ll forfeit them all.

So build strong relationship with your CSAs and PSAs. It’s worth it.

Both I would argue have their place in your downline, although an active PSA gives a better return than an active CSA that are spending the same amount of money and earning the same amount of TCredits.

I actively pursue both CSA's and PSA's as well as TripleClicks members.

I would not want to restrict my business by deciding not to use all the opportunities open to me, to make money or to expand my business.

You will get the bonuses for PSA's and CSA's that remain EA2's. You should be offering your help to all your affiliates because you do not know if your CSA's sponsors are active.

In my case I get a lot more help from my co-sponsor than I do from my sponsor so I keep this in mind when I offer help to my CSA's.

You can find the answer if you carefully analyse the SFI compensation plan. Let me demonstrate you how the compensation policy works which ultimately will lead to your answer.

1. Direct Commission: Each time an SFI affiliate that you have personally sponsored–OR a TC member that you have personally referred–places an order at TripleClicks.com, you earn 45% of the CV.

2.Co-Sponsor commission: Each time an SFI affiliate that you are the co-sponsor of places an order at TripleClicks.com, you earn 15% of the CV.

3. Executive Pool: SFI's TripleClicks Executive Pool provides a simple, easy, and lucrative income stream that all SFI affiliates can tap into every month. SFI-powered TripleClicks.com is one of the fastest-growing e-commerce Website in the world, and we now put 40% of the CV of EVERY purchase–companywide–into the TripleClicks Executive Pool for our affiliates to share in!
How to share in the pool:
For each VersaPoint (VP) you accumulate during the month, you will receive one share of the month's pool. The more VP you score, the more you will earn from the TripleClicks Executive Pool! It's that simple. Note that VP can be earned for doing a wide variety of actions (see VP Ledger for complete list of pointable actions).

Now, if you compare the amount of income you will generate out of one PSA and one CSA, you can easily find out that the PSA give a better amount than the CSA (45% is always greater than 15%). Plus, you make a healthy amount of commission from the Executive pool if your PSA starts building an active team but nothing from CSAs team.

Except the above income benefits, PSAs also provide valuable action VPs (100 For support of each personally sponsored EA2, 150 for BTL, 200 for STL, 250 for GTL and 300 for PTL) which ads up towards your personal Power development in SFI. And each time you became a Team Leader, you get a good share of second home CSAs too.

So, Go ahead and Recruit as many as PSAs you can. This will be the best way to generate money in SFI.

Which is better to pursue..CSAs or PSAs?

Thanks for this question.

PSAs are basically people who are introduced by your own efforts to SFI Business.

Where as, you are assigned to certain members who are already introduced by some one to help them grow so that you will be able to develop your Team.

Both are required to have a Team, develop the members and grow together with them. Without a Strong and Active Team one will not be able to grow and succeed here.

PSAs:

When you introduce your close friends, family members and relatives they are all your PSAs.

You know them well..You know their back ground well...you will also enjoy a good amount of rapport.

These will help you to communicate with them easily and especially if most of them belong to your (same ) area, then you can meet them personally & help them to do SFI activities better.

The other way of getting PSAs is through Free Ads, social media contacts, through SFI Auctions, etc, etc.

Since most of them are strangers you have to be more cautious when you communicate with them on SFI matters.

You have to be very patient and support them step by step. But still they help in building a Team.


CSAs:

Even though you have not introduced them, still, since you are assigned to them, the responsibility is more to communicate with them frequently, help them understand SFI Business, etc.

You have to demonstrate through your own actions that they can depend on you. Once the trust is created I feel they will certainly become closer to you and will become active.

You have to have lot of patience to see that at least few of them became active and continue their activities.

Conclusion:

1. In a business of this sort, every person in a Team is important. We can not write any one off and we can not give up our hope just because some one remains inactive. All it requires is constant communication and follow up.

2.View the PSAs and CSAs are and the same and take them along.

3.Please do realize that a strong PSA can give up mid way and an inactive CSA can become a Top Leader in your Team.

I have been in SFI longer than 1 year and now understand the system better than when I joined. I have kept a regular check on my income scoreboard and know that PSAs give you better commissions when they have a standing order. CSAs on the other hand also give you commissions but they are less than the commissions you will earn from your PSAs.

I am a firm believer of diversification in your business and this I understand is to have more than one income stream within your said business. Therefore it is better to have both PSAs and CSAs to support your business. You will not need to pursue your PSAs once they are set in their business and neither will you have to check on your CSAs (who are actually another affiliate's PSA). You must support both to retain the income potential from both areas of your business.

Overall, you should focus on both PSAs as well as CSAs - just because CSA commissions are less does not mean their importance should be underestimated.

Neither one is better to pursue than the other. Many SFI Affiliates would not have remained active in SFI were it not for CSAs. I have several very active CSAs. For November 18 CSAs rated me with most of them giving me 5 stars and 8 of those CSAs left me generous, kind and encouraging comments. I passionately support my team and I cherish their comments. I have only one or two barely active PSAs. It is just the way it is and if it were not for a great team of CSAs I probably would have opted out.

Never under estimate CSAs. For me they were easier to acquire. My working with them has gained me much experience which will benefit me when I have PSAs that want to work.

Why take the view of which would bring you the most profit? You have an opportunity to help someone become successful and if it happens to be one of your CSAs you could be providing that person support they're not getting from their sponsor or anywhere else. We should be helping and serving all SFI affiliates including a2a Friends and in the Forum. This will benefit all of us in a whole host of ways. We need to look at the big picture and not have a narrow view of what is before us.

Together Everyone Achieves More.

Hi Dave,
1. Using the analogy of gems, PSAs can be compared to diamonds and CSAs as sapphire. Both of them have their own values.
2. In a similar manner, it’s highly advisable to give adequate weight age and pursue both PSAs and CSAs. Both of them bring revenue to your income and are the strong pillars of your SFI business. The proportionate shares from the common executive pool and percentage of commission values you can earn from both is highlighted in detail in the following url: https://www.sfimg.com/Reference/CompPlan
i) Revenue from PSAs and their down line: Matching VPs and 45% commission from their direct sales. You also earn matching VPs from the different levels of their down lines!
ii) Revenue from CSAs: 15% commission from their purchases/sales and matching VPs from the TC executive pool!
3. PSAs can be procured by :-
a) Sponsoring through verbal & online marketing through your SFI Gateways, Prestige custom domain gateways, SFI/TC banners & Ads on personal bogs, public & personal domains etc.
b) Purchase of PSAs to Go
c) Winning bids in Price Benders auctions.
4. CSAs can be earned by:-
a) Winning bids in Price Benders auctions
b) Second Home CSAs allotted in different share ratio as per the team leader status! These CSAs are already exposed & trained by their sponsor, make best use of them as their new Co-sponsor.Train them with additional new information that they were unaware of and make them better quality CSAs.
c) As prizes through Daily Grand draws
d) As prizes through Daily Crown
5. Finally to summarize, concentrate on acquiring PSAs through methods recommended in para 3 above & at the same time enter in daily draws/games which offer CSAs as lucky prizes/bonus.
As for me, both of them will prove to be “Gems” in the long term!

Happy hunting PSAs & CSAs !!

I am glad you asked that question. Let's look at the details for each when it comes to commissions. SFI gives you 45% of what your PSAs sell or buy in Triple Clicks. SFI gives you 15% of what ever your CSAs sell or buy in Triple Clicks. Plus you still get a bonus from both your PSAs and CSAs versa points. This may seem like a big difference but I say that the two type of affiliates are equal in importance because you might not have too many active PSAs in your downline but you may have quite a few active CSAs and vise versa. When your PSAs are not very active and your CSAs are then you are still getting commissions. It is never a bad thing to support both your CSAs and PSAs. I put importance on both and email both and include both in all I do here in SFI.

Plus you never know if the CSAs that are under you are getting any support what so ever from their personal sponsors so having you there supporting them is good for them and you can still be a good influence on their business building. I do hope this helped you and answered your question in a good manner. Have a great day and patience as well as duplication is a necessity in building any good business that will last. SFI is no different. Just keep trying to help all of your downline, I am sure that your hard work will soon pay off for you.

We here at SFI are one big family so it is also a good thing to offer help where ever needed. This is a good thing for your CSAs. I wish you the best for your future and your business.
