The most important goal for any affiliate would be to qualify as an Executive affiliate (EA)every month. For doing so they would require minimum 1500 VP. It is easier to get to the target in the first month with so many free VP that are earned from various measures SFI provides. Real Challenge starts after that and that's when this question comes of importance.

First and foremost, all affiliate should focus on their daily, weekly and monthly tasks that provide them the requisite insight

The most important ones are:
The to do list. It's free AVP and keeps you connected to SFI; what's going on with your team, what your affiliates are talking about on the forum. Staying connected is more important than a person realizes. It's like communication. If you don't tell me; I don't know. When you choose to do the to-do list daily it's enough free AVP to keep you in the E365 finalists, but in order for you to accomplish this you need to dedicate yourself to a whole year or be willing

Indeed there are many actions to take that can earn you VP. I simply tell my affiliates go to your VP ledger and follow the list of actions. Master one thing at a time. If you have any questions about anything just ask. If we get stuck of just a set of points then when lose focus of what is really behind the points and that's ACTION. We must take daily action everyday to grow our business. Not just any action will do. Follow the VP ledger and follow those actions right down the list until

I suppose that many answers here would suggest that the todo list is the place to concentrate for versapoints everyday and certainly you should encourage your affiliates to do that point getting ritual everyday - BUT - the points from there and from the training will only get a person to EA once.

Qualifying for EA2 is going to be more difficult and getting to EA again in the 3rd moth will be nearly impossible on VersaPoints in the ToDo page only. The VersaPoints gained from a Standing

SFI is a network marketing business. In communicating and building your relationship to your downline, it is very important that you send them a clear message of what SFI business all about.

You need to explain to them as simple and clear as possible, as often as it requires from the fastest to the slowest learner to keep the momentum of expanding your SFI organization.

The concept of SFI can be best understood through SFI BASICS and LAUNCHPAD. I would therefore recommend to

This is a good question that I think has two answers.

For new Affiliates;
I recommend following all the actions in their To-Do List.
I remind them they only need 1500 VersaPoints by month end and to save all
non-reoccurring actions for the following month.

For established affiliates;
It is important to do the Daily, Weekly and Monthly actions.
Primarily to stay in touch with all current activities, updates, changes and Tips.
With these actions alone

Your down line wants to earn money RIGHT NOW! Can you hear that in his letters to you? Even those who understand that SFI is not a get rich quick business want to earn sooner than later.

The quickest way to earn money is to promote sales of TC products. Go over with him the ways to use the text ads to sell products, how to set up the ads, what types of products and the expected targeted audience. It doesn't have to be a complete lesson, just enough for him to get some ads out there. He

I would recommend the following list of actions in its order of importance.

1. Routine Daily, Weekly & Monthly action points. These points are important for everyone to keep close watch of how our business is growing. These activities will keep you actively involved with SFI with latest updates, your progress trend, how your team is performing..and so on.

2. Next I would recommend to earn sales versa

When an affiliate first joins SFI, I stress focusing on the Getting Started activities, especially the Fast Track requirements. My reasoning is simple. This is where the most points can be gained per action. Next comes the Launch Pad and Intermediate Actions to give them a solid base of understanding of the business.

The Daily Actions are critical once a person gets an understanding of the basics of the business. They provide a steady flow of VP as well as information about all aspects

I don't think you can focus on one action and earn enough VP.

When you start I recommend you go to your VP ledger every day and see what is still available for you to do and do it. I would not recommend reading all your Launchpad lessons in one day - rather read one lesson a day, answer the question and earn the VP. I would also not recommend that you rush through all the start up actions just to qualify as EA. Do enough to get your Fast Track badge. That would be the actions like
