Sharon Early and Dear all,

Down line is a team of different people, men, women, different culture, different country, and different languages as a medium of communications. This variation in the team is what makes the task more challenging.

Though communication is the only method that is available to us for managing the teams we should use it in all possible ways.

Based on this I would say, you as a leader can lead and manage your team by following different possible

"How do you manage a large active downline"?

I have a personal rule her: DO NOT SPONSOR TOO MUCH AFFILIATES AT ONE TIME!

Why? When affiliates just join, they need your "hands on attention" to guide them through their training. Once the get in the second and thirt month, they will need you again, because they are "dead in the water" if they do not have a downline by this time or any money to invest.

By month 4, they are out of your

I've got several instant messaging apps on my computer as well as I like to send each PSA an ecard every week.
In the ecard I like to add a few encouraging remarks and tips to remain successful with SFI.
I also prefer to keep it short for those with shorter attention spans and it's easier to get someone's attention with a few well placed words than with long winded epistles.
I care about my team and would like to help them become more successful, but according to their actions they

1. You are not responsible for those below your first level (front line PSAs).

2. You work with (the workers) your active PSAs on your first level and your CSAs.

3. You teach them how to grow and lead their active teams. If you are leading as an awesome sponsor your active team will follow your lead and example.

4. The active PSAs in Levels 6 - 12 have the option of contacting you and following you in the Forum.

5. If your front line PSAs

Managing a large, active downline is a huge work for any team leader. But SFI has already provided an easy escape route via the Team mailing system. A mail is sent through SFI via the Genealogy tool, all downline will receive this mail uninterrupted.

Responses from such mails can enable the leader to estimate the urgent needs of the downline and their needed support or assistance. Special needs will then be fashioned out for the needy.

Forstruggling affiliattes, of which such

Hallo Sharon!

Thanks for the great question, and I hope I will read many helpful answers.
I personally do not have a large active downline but I will !

Communication is very important.
In a large group of people it possible may be hard because all of them are different.

My suggestion is to make a selection.

There are people who do not need help because they read and follow the news and forum.
There are people who do not read and think

It is my personal opinion that you cannot attend personally to all your affiliates. As we know, many affiliates are inactive, and many will not become active. That's just a fact.

What we can do is attend to those who show some interest in building their SFI business. It has been my experience that they are, in general, open to suggestions and to our help as team leaders. So, we need to focus on helping those who want our help. We need to be positive and helpful. Avoid being critical in

Personally I use the PSA and CSA mailer each time I mail out from the SFI Center which I use mostly for my business.
By adding Hi ~FIRSTNAME~ ( WHICH IS A VARIABLE AND DRAWS THE NAME FROM SFI'S DATABASE, THIS SUBSTITUTES THE NAME IN PLACE OF THE ~FIRSTNAME~
in turn when each affiliate receives their email, it reads, "Hi Bob", and whatever you may have added after this for example
I will use the subject as well in my Subject line

Hi,

First and for most thing is be loyal to SFI family and lead by example.

Secondly encourage your down line by conducting daily or weekly online meetings and hear their problems and attend it. By increasing their income yours and your up line sponsors income also will increase. These meetings can be online and/or at a common place convenient to everyone.

Promote business developing tools and techniques that were helpful to you to your down line.
