The simple straightforward answer to this question is a most definite yes.

These days most countries have English as a second language and therefore we can all communicate as one.

If on the offchance that you strike someone who cannot speak English, we are provided with many ways to translate such as with Google and Bing.

I always send my new members an email asking them whether they would like to communicate in English or I ask them what their preferred language is. I then direct them to the translate area. My first few emails are always in both English and the newcomers native language and I ask them what their preference is.

I think that if your new team member understands just how much trouble you will go to help him/her, you will have a great member beneath you.

TripleClicks offers multi-currency and multi-language online shopping options.

- SFI Forum is a great place for new affiliates to connect to other affiliates who speak their languages. SFI community is full of friendly affiliates who understand the challenges of new members and are ready to share their experiences.

- The a2a program allows you to network with other affiliates in SFI. You can even identify SFI affiliates in your own country, state/province, or even city using the a2a's friend finder or search by gender, age, date joined, common goals, and more.

Joining the a2a program enables you to create buddy lists, find mentor, brainstorm/share tips/ideas, discuss SFI news, and share successful marketing strategies for your region of the world. You can even form your local SFI support groups and organize your local get-togethers.

Remember this basic rule in any online earning program like SFI, recruit whoever want to try. This includes people who are not english readers and speakers. In fact there so many of us here at SFI who does not speak english.

What you need to do as sponsor is to point then to resources that will help him read SFI contents in their language. Here are some of these resources.

1. The SFI website can be translated to many different languages - look at the bottom right of the page and you can see there a drop down menu of any language that you want the website be translated to. So, he will have no problem understanding what is written in the SFI website.

2. To solve the problem of communication between the two of you as sponsor and affiliate you can also use google translator. He can send you message in his language, and when you receive it translate it to english and answer it in english but translate it first to his own language before sending it to him.

So, difference in language now is just become a small barrier as long as they are willing to learn and persevere until they suceed in SFI.

Yes, of course, you should try to recruit people, even if they are not English speakers/readers, to become SFI Affiliates. SFI business does not discriminate, so you shouldn't either.

Why? Because you're looking for an ambitious and business minded people and they are not necessarily English-speakers/readers and you never judge a book by its cover. Language is not a barrier for people looking to improve their lives and are hungry for success.

It is for this reason why SFI, as a global home-based business, is so successful because of its appeal to all kinds of people around the world. People from certain countries may not be English speakers/readers but it doesn’t mean that they are not intelligent and cannot understand a simple business such as SFI.

In very highly populated countries like India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and China, Brazil, Italy, and other Asian and European countries where English is not spoken or written widely, SFI's growth is phenomenal, as proven by SFI’s Global Growth Report.

If you sponsor just a few of ambitious and highly motivated people in these countries, they will find someone who speaks English to explain to them in their native tongue how SFI and TripleClicks work by sharing the SFI training materials and procedures and start to work the business.

Think how many more affiliates and members they could sponsor and bring into the business with your help, think of how many thousands of dollars in override commissions you could be earning monthly. Think what it can do for your future financial success.

SFI and TripleClicks are global markets and present in 190 countries at the time being. With this vast coverage it is very likely that you could and will sponsor affiliates that cannot speak or read English.

To stop recruiting people who do not speak English then you would have to limit your advertising to English speaking countries only by doing this you would no longer have a global business.

You need to understand one thing and that is somehow the prospect signs up to your advertisement which means, they found a way to translate the ad or had someone translate it for them and they still joined which shows that language is no barrier when on the Internet.

If everyone duplicated your idea about not recruiting people who don’t speak or read the English language then there would be no reason for SFI to be present in 180 different countries.

Many of the top affiliates present today started out in SFI and had to translate everything using the translator at the bottom of every page on the SFI and TripleClicks sites. They were and are successful because they did not let the English language hinder their progress.

Don’t put limits on recruiting anyone – SFI is a huge family and we all work together to overcome any barriers simply by using the forum, ASK SC, the Stream post, A2A friends and the translator button along with Google Translate system which is free to use.

As a global business SFI does not restrict anybody from joining in the business if he/she is interested in home business and affiliate marketing irrespective of language, educational background, belief and knowledge!We have Google to translate English to relevant official languages of different countries. Even though Google has its limitation, it still can be used at least the basic understanding of the content.

Seek the assistance of a2a friends or your upline from the country concerned who know English and translate to the language of the affiliate.

SFI has customised and ready to use letters to be sent to the affiliates. These letters or E-cards can easily be sent if SFI has ready made translations according to the languages of the affiliates. Just click the options and the messages are ready to be sent.

With this in mind, I should try to recruit people to become SFI affiliates even though they are not English speakers/leaders but can understand and read simple English or using Google translation or if come to the worst, they should have their own dictionary at hand to refer or language translation software installed.-in their computers.

Hello Vehbi,

Yes, of course you should recruit people to become SFI affiliates even if they are not English speakers/readers.

As for the sponsor-PSA communication, you can recruit people from your own language speaking area or people that speak any other language/foreign language that you can also speak. As long as you can communicate with your downline efficiently, it is not important in which language are you communicating.

As for the navigating through their SFI account and understanding all the important information and training materials, your PSAs can translate their complete interface in 90 different languages by using the implemented Google Translate tool which is located at the bottom of their profile pages. So, there is no language barrier there, either.

There are also so many training materials in so many languages available on the Internet, especially on YouTube. You can find training SFI videos in different languages, or even without any speech, so it can be understood by anyone worldwide.

By targeting only English-speaking prospects you would be needlessly narrowing your possibility to build a strong team. There might be some great marketers and some very hard working people among those non-English speakers. There is no need to exclude them. They might be just the people you need for your team.

Hope my answer is helpful. Best regards.

Yes, you should try to recruit also non-English speaking/reading affiliates. In fact, you should not only try. Aim for it as you aim to recruit knowledgeable, financially able and experienced affiliates.

SFI business is open to everyone, hence, it should be open to all non-English speaking prospects and/or affiliates, too. In my opinion, the most important qualifications in joining SFI are: interest, passion and perseverance. These 3 reasons alone compel anyone to strive hard, to do his best and to ignore negativity. Although good online and offline marketing knowledge, financial capability and good English speaking ability are enough factors to be successful in SFI, the absence of interest, passion and perseverance would somehow creep in once a good flow of income is not sustained.

If one has interest in SFI business, he will find means to augment his shortcomings in English language. For sure, he would find someone from among his friends who knows English and would ask him in their mother tongue of which both of them are conversant.
If anyone has passion doing routine works for which most of SFI activities are done, his interest would be increased and would think of ways to hone his passion in a way that is unique to him.

Since the one who has both interest and passion to do SFI daily activities, he would find ways to approach his “warm market” to make his initial sales. Once he gains support from his “warm market”, his feeling of fulfillment in his own way would elevate his zest and enthusiasm, hence, he would persevere and continue his efforts towards gaining knowledge, good working relationships, good business connections and embrace all chances of business opportunities.

In my opinion this question even shouldn't be asked! You know great football and basket teams? They are a mix of different people from different nations that don't speak the same language,and they still have amazing results. Just like we, here, in SFI!
SFI is a global business and restrict only to the English-speaking world can significantly reduce our success in building a team. In SFI we have many examples of people who are not from Eng. speaking areas, from all parts of the globe who have achieved great success (there are some among the diamond leaders). In our work is not so important the language, but the desire, persistence, diligence and willing to learn. Through daily work on our business and with a desire to learn and progress .... language is not and should not be a barrier !
There is always a way to get close and interact with such members: google translator, a2a help of friends from the same country who speak English, skype contact with the translator ...
Our desire and effort to get closer to such members,to estabilish a contact and help them, will surely have a positive impact on their activity as well as on our success as a team leader.

My advice to you is to recruit and welcome anyone who is interested in becoming an SFI Affiliate, regardless of what language they speak or can read.

There are ways of sponsoring people with little or no English if you do not speak their language. Find out what their language is and use online translators to communicate with them. You can also reassign them if possible to one of your team leaders who speaks that affiliate’s language.

Go ahead and advertise, recruiting people globally. This is after all a global business.

Having said all that, of course if your advertising budget enables you to target only English speaking prospects, you should go ahead and do that. After all recruiting non English speakers means extra work for the sponsor. If you are able to avoid that extra work and focus on other business building activities, why not target English speakers only.
