Hello
You asking how long should you be keeping in touch with your inactive PSA/CSAs? Its a good question especially considering that the secret to substantial residual income here at SFI is duplication. Duplication means you have to clone yourself by introducing others to SFI and start teaching them what you do to earn so they can earn too. It really becomes frustrating when your down line is inactive, be it PSAs or CSAs.

1. There are a lot of ways in which a PSA can join SFI, it

You should never give up on your inactive team members! Include them in your team email. If your team member was active but then dropped off, there may be a good reason. Don't judge or put pressure on them, but do let them know that you miss them and ask if they need help. You can send them an ecard or an email.
I agree that you should work with your workers but you never know when an inactive team member may turn into the best worker you have with the right encouragement.

I send weekly TeamMails to all my PSAs/CSAs whether they are active or inactive.

I send e-cards to welcome my PSAs/CSAs. I also send them when they win the Daily Grand or reach Fast-Track, EA, or another milestone.

Since SFI only deletes someone after a year has passed, my answer to the time that must pass before you give up on a PSA/CSA would be one year or until they op-out.

I usually give them 30 days before I stop sending them emails.

After that you can put your inactive CSAs that are not from your country into the CSA exchange, and you can reassign your inactive PSAs to your new active PSAs so that they can complete their PSA Mailer Weekly Action.

Always remember- work with the workers!

Knowledge is power, and that knowledge comes from reading.
An awesome sponsor should be more than a Sponsor, Co-Team member or Team Leader.
When a new PSA is assigned, the sponsor must learn to develop mutual trust and respect.
He must present a warm welcome
Provide support, encouragement, and guidance to your team.
Help them to accumulate 1,500 VersaPoints to become EA and above.
There are many ways in which people get motivated but in the case of SFI, I would

"Pursue" is maybe too strong a word, because you surely do not want your PSAs and CSAs to feel pursued. Joking aside, I think that you should contact them every week with a uplifting and positive message for at least a year, unless they block you or ask not to be contacted. Starting with a preposition that they signed up for a real reason other than just clicking, and just think of the thousands of reasons why they are inactive, I am sure that one, albeit small percent of them will become

Simplest answer of your question may be as for as they are your PSA/CSA,you are not suppose to give up on them,after all they are your prospect,giving up on them means giving up your efforts to achieve your aim. We should always curb the tendency of thinking of giving up our efforts.There are some questions,specific answer is difficult to find like mathematics 2+2=4, you cannot make any hard and fast rule about it.

Hi, regarding your question on how long you should pursue inactive affiliates. In my opinion as long as you see their names in your Geneology list then you still include them in your emails. You still send them e cards to remind them that SFI is still open for them.
Keep doing this up until the system deletes them from In activity. You may never know, one they they might snap out of their slumber and start working or their account in SFI.
Just keep them posted on what is happening.

There will never be a specific time as some of your affiliates will become active after a certain amount of time and others might never become active. I would suggest only sending PSA/CSA mails to them every week as it has been shown that a lot of affiliates use other email addresses and not there primary email address, so don't spend to much time sending emails, but never stop to pursue affiliates.

So long as your email to them still delivers, I'd say pursue them. Two years, three years, keep pursuing them. Eventually, one may break through their barriers and make some sense to them and reactivate them.
The reason some people go inactive should be taken into consideration too. Some are inactive because they come in expecting easy money and see that the reality is a bit different. Some become inactive because they cannot quite understand d program. Others are just overwhelmed with the amount
