If depends on what stage they are at.

There is a second change program available in which affiliates who are knocked out within the first 5 rounds can buy their way back. They can get back into the contest by attaining the rank of Bronze Team Leader (BTL) within their 60th day of joining SFI. Make sure you explain this.

If they missed the second chance, business must go on.

Disappointment is an indication that the person is motivated and wanted to do better. Continue

Sure its disappointing but always remember The E365 contest is simply an incentive to get people working on their SFI Business. The E365 is not crucial to success in SFI. Yes it helps but it’s not crucial.

They can have another read of the rules at https://www.sfimg.com/E365?tab=info_and_rules

One of the rules talk about a second chance to re-enter the program after being eliminated during the 1st 5 rounds of the contest. They must attain BTL within the 60th day of joining

Being a finalist in E365 contest is definitely a great motivation for anyone but that is not all. It is just a part to help you achieve or win some additional aid to make yourself successful at SFI.

If at some point due to any reason you could not qualify for it, your determination to succeed should not be taken away. Rather you should have the vigor to succeed with or without it. Your concentration should be at the bigger picture to earn more commissions and take steps towards its achievement.

Thanks for this question.

First of all, as their Sponsor you should be thorough with the Rules governing E365. For detailed explanation, please visit:

During different stages of the Competition, you can monitor the performance of your affiliates who are in E365 and guide them appropriately.

I am my E365 Class Champion.

I held the #1 position from the start and relinquished it only twice, in the third month and in the 8th month, but regained it as quickly as I could. I made it a goal to be the champion and did so.

However, I also realize that, some new affiliates may not always see the importance of the E365 Contest until it is rather late, although the competition is preeminently featured for both the affiliate, their sponsor and co-sponsor. There is a constant

I would tell them that there can only be one winner of E365 out of the whole Class
and that many others would have also wanted to have been the winner too.

They are still winners in their own right, because the fact that they are disappointed must be because they have tried very hard and had the incentive and determination to go for it, that in itself is "The makings of a Winner".
If they have gotten that far to reach so close to becoming an E365 Winner they are on

What you must realise that out of everyone who joins on a certain day, only one can be a winner of the E365 competition.

What you also need to realise that even though you are not an E365 winner, you are a winner in other ways.

Explain to your team that to win the E365 competition earns you a Prestige Badge for your home page. However all is not lost.

If you are in a position to win the competition, you must be working well and are fairly well up the ladder

I will tell affiliates who got knocked out of the E-365 challenge contest not to easily get frustrated because win or lose we are all winners in any contest. We always gain and learn something from any contest. It makes us stronger and become more creative.

Remember, it’s trying to win in a contest that is more important than winning. For example, in the process of trying to stay above the green line in the E-365 challenge contest, we learn more about how SFI works. We see how important

WIlliam, great question!

Without a doubt, in the beginning of your time at SFI, E365 contest is not just fun, but it proves challenging to stay in contention!

For those who are truly wanting to take advantage of the prizes, or even the top prize, and fail to stay in the contest, there is a Second Chance Program designed to allow them re-entry!

Here it is:

SECOND CHANCE PROGRAM
All affiliates who joined SFI on or after the debut of E365 on August 1,

Many of the most successful members of SFI were not even finalists in the E365 contest and even winning your round does not guarantee success.
E365 is a great motivational tool with some awesome rewards but it is only a small part of the program after all.
The key is to set your goals and keep working towards them on a daily basis using whatever tools and chances present themselves today.
If each of us does this as a matter of choice or habit we will win over the long term.
