First thing to ask is what they were expecting and try to show them how SFI offers a strong foundation and steady increased results and doesn't make impossible to deliver promises.

Remind them that there is no investment required and they can take as long as needed to learn the system, and tell them that they wont find as many people in one place ready to help them succeed anywhere online.

See most people who give that excuse were looking for faster earnings or a minimum dollar amount earned from month one. They still believe someone can teach them how to achieve $10,000 a month in income in 30 days or less without it costing them $20,000. They tend to have fears because of all the doubting Thomas' we have in our forum who badmouth inactive referrals, and cry because free traffic exchanges only result in them seeing other companies offers instead of a ton of people wanting to join their SFI etc.. are complaining in 2 out of 5 post.

They hear the alarmist crying foul every time there is a simple to solve problem or they don't understand something, and start tuning out the voices of those of us making money with SFI who are sharing training post to help them do it too.

They often have PSA of their own who have not yet become active or were active and then stopped working and are fearful that they aren't seeing the same mistake these other people see when they decide to leave SFI. Most of all they are afraid they will lose precious time and money for something they fear is not real and have outside detractors they have yet to learn to tune out.

The fact they have given you a reason means they want you to put their fears at ease and motivate them to stay. It is far easier to just leave and break off all communication, so grab this opportunity to address their fears and educate their minds.

If you have developed a good, friendly and trusting relationship with your EAs you will be able to ask what the expectation was when they stop.

There are many reasons for this and the reasons maybe are within your ability to solve. Let your EAs open up and listen well.

If the reason has to do with earning quick bucks on their first month, then you can enlighten them. Suggest that reviewing Day 11 of the LaunchPad lesson will help in understanding this quite common expectations of an online home business.

If the reason is inability to understand SFI procedures thinking it is very complex, try to simplify it by reviewing the Ultra-Simple 3-Step Plan in SFI BASICS.

If the reason is financial and that because joining is free, and they are not expecting to spend anything to stay in business, then referring the EA to SFI Basics once more will help explain the matter. Explain the importance of investing in their business, no matter how small, can help accelerate their success.

If after all this, your EAs are still doubtful, simply advise them to persevere and stay and learn more about SFI and how to succeed by treating SFI as a real business by referring to SFI Rules of Success.

Reminding your EAs of their personal reasons WHY they joined SFI, may also make them think twice.

If none of this works, then your EAs have the freedom to opt out to seek other opportunities where their expectations, whatever they are, are met.

Remind them, too, that they are always welcome to come back to SFI- hopefully, this time much wiser and much more willing to walk the mile and give it their best shot.

Good question,

In my opinion, its usually not too easy as quite a number stumble across SFI by chance. To tackle such, one must be able to ascertain the reason as to why they joined in the first place. Once reason has been ascertain then, we should try and help them to make it easier as to why they joined in the first place.

Ways to encourage or help them is by:-

1. Telling them that its not a get rich scheme and thus requires time and patience

2. Inform them to log in daily to initiate daily, weekly and monthly tasks as little drop make mighty ocean.

3. Inform them that tripleclicks is the online shop where they can advertise their own goods and refer people were if purchases are made, they get a commission.

4. Assist the serious ones with gift certificates. T credits etc when needed.

5. Let them know that once they build a team of active affiliates, they will enjoy SFI which is financial freedom.

6. Let them know its flexibility

7. Its free to join and no commitment

Remember your PSA's are business people, so treat them that way.
You are not a boss or a bully.

Since he has become an EA and had some experience, he or she may be sincere. Although SFI has great opportunities and good compensation plan, it may not be what the person had in mind. You can not force them to stay.

There are many rich and successful persons, but that does not mean we are all willing to receive success in a similar way.

Take a look at his/her profile and goals. Offer your help and guidance to work towards them.
Be willing to listen to his viewpoint.

Get to know what the affiliate expects at SFI. Is there another opportunity?

Identify areas and opportunities at SFI that he/she has not yet utilized. Bring them to his/her attention and offer help to pursue them.

It is not possible to know it all in one month.

If money is not an issue, explain the compensation plan and the different levels of Team Leaders.
Do not attempt to overwhelm them.

Give your help and support. Maintain contact with them until he/shes leaves.

I will try my best to have an open communication with them and find out the reasons why they think that SFI is not what they have expected.

I will explain the importance of having a proper SFI mindset. I will teach them how to develop the correct mindset to be successful not only in SFI but also in life. It is only when they are clear with what they want to achieve when they signed up with SFI can they figure out whether SFI is the right business for them or not. For example, if they were simply looking for a job or a get-rich quick plan, SFI is not for them. You will be barking on the wrong tree.

But don’t give up hope on them. Maybe you can still turn around their decision to stop or quit. Try your best to add more value why they have to stay EA.

For example, if I tell you, “I am selling a bottle of water and the cost is $1,000.” Will you buy it? Of course you will answer, “No!” How about if at this very moment, your hair is burning and the only water available is my bottle of water, will you pay me $1,000?

Got my point? Add more value to your SFI business.

Hello Anwar
1. Find out what happened and why the statement.
2. Find out what they were expecting when they joined. Try and look at what they want and see if you can fit SFI into it. E.g let say your EA affiliate expected fast money may due to an urgent need, show him other avenues that he can use to realize it, don't just shun it off as impossible. It is and that will be becoming an ECA or listing items at Tripleclicks. This is immediate payment.
It may be using SO to requalify and it may have appealed him/her off, show your EA other avenues that he/she can get money in the business without using his/her money. It'l surely make them continue.
3. Emphasize the benefits of the residual and leverage income that SFI has for its affiliates. Share the compensation plan with them. Let them know that it is to their favour.
4. Relate to them the duplication plan and the SFIBASICS. May be they've not gotten SFI's simplicity of making money: The Creation of EA2s and the power of duplication.
Lastly, share with your EA how they can make profits through their investments. You see, people don't want to lose money and in SFI you don't lose money. Successful Entrepreneurs want to spend less to earn more, so teach your EA that principle and that is what SFI does for its affiliates who are ready to work and build their business.

Hi! Anwar

Try to send him/her a letter talking about your failure with other online business!

I would have to say that in order to build a successful business Online.

It takes determination and willingness to succeed.

If you put in the effort required to duplicate you will success.

I’m gone be honest with you I don’t like to brainwash peoples after one year’s since the third month I make money in SFI, ok that not yet my full income I need lot more than that for quitting my full time job, but I still believe in SFI more than the other work at home I try before.

I don’t know about you but I try a lot of work at home opportunities on the web for the last 10 years.

And the thing I hate the most is when we need to paid or when they always ask to upgrade for getting more.

With SFI at least you never gone a have to paid if you doesn’t want, it’s all up to you.
I decide to put $50.00 dollar by month but it’s again up to you.

The only thing you really need it’s at least a Standing order *SO* so you keep your Status without having to stress about it.

So you got more time for learning, for me it’s learning about advertising.

I’m never gone quit because it take just about 1 or 2 hours daily for doing my To-Do-List,participate in the Forum and do my Ask question daily.

So I think the point is advertising, advertising again always advertising never stop advertising
We need more worker *good worker like us!

Good Luck with your members!!

I believe wholeheartedly that SFI is a tremendous opportunity. And for an affiliate that became EA in the first month, I see seriousness in them to earn online. The basic problem with such affiliate is that they are yet to see the big picture, the potentials and the possibilities with SFI.

To start with, you need to open up the line of communication with such affiliate. As long as they are willing to listen, you need to explain to them what SFI is.

First, you need to explain to them that SFI is a home business and not a job like filling of forms, data entry or customer care representative job etc. They need to build their business from ground zero up to the starts. One thing they should know is that all the tools, websites, products and support are available for them free.

Secondly, the need to realize as with any business, there is the time of investing. As a fresh affiliate, it would take months and for some few years before seeing appreciable income as with any business. If they put up a grocery shop, it takes a while to build the customer base to break even, build trust and loyalty. He needs patience and perseverance of a man that planted a tree. Fruits will not come in the first few months for many of the trees!

Thirdly, the returns of working in one's business is quite better than working all through life for someone. This is because, with his home business, there is no ceiling to his earning. He can take the business from 3 digit to 5 digit even to 6 digit income.

Fourthly, SFI affords him the opportunity of earning residual and leverage income. Just one-time action of sponsoring active PSAs and PRMs can result in continuous and permanent flow of income from the team. SFI allows you to come back from vacation and meet a paycheck awaiting you! Financial Security SFI offers should make it worthwhile.

Furthermore, the Freedom of choosing work hours, work volume and vacations would more than compensate for all the initial work and patience required in this business. You get all the perks of a business owner.

Even though, you make him to realize SFI is not a "get rich opportunity", yet it's a guaranteed business for achieving Financial Freedom.

Hi,

That is a good question, because it is quite often situation for all of us.

Main reason for such is that it is very easy to maintain EA or higher status at the first month in SFI.
Due that at the second month it is more difficult to attain EA status without investing, many people got discouraged.
So, our task as their sponsor is to inform them about this situation at the first month, i.e. almost immediately, to avoid previous thing.

Now, if this happened, I think that you should contact them regularly and try to additionally inform them about all of the benefits of SFI.
Second, you should explain to them that first months are for education and team building.
Third, maybe you could offer them some reward for attaining the EA2 status.

Hoping that this will help...
Best Regards
