Good day Phyllinda,

This indeed is an interesting question, and i must say that each and everyone has been given the opportunity to recruit affiliates one on one.

For recruitment of affiliates to be effective, one must consider:-
1. Level of Education of the new recruit.
2. Age of affiliate.
3. Langauge Barrier.

Considering the above factors, effective communication is very key as first impression and presentation of our businesses could either make it a success or a failure.

There is a saying that you ar being addressed by the way you are dressed, having this in mind, presenting SFI, you must be well mannered and well dressed to give the aure of Professionalism.

Also, talking with a prospect one on one, we should be confident when marketing SFI, to remove any layer of doubt. Someone marketing a product without confident would be perceived as one that is not sure of what he is marketing and the prospect loses interest in the product. Inorder words, market what you believe in and be confident so as to gain the trust of your new prospect.

Also, talking with a prospect, we should highlight the importance of your product and what differentiates it from other products. For instance, you share with your prospect of the initial online business that you were doing and how you heard about SFI, tried it out and how successful you have been.

Also, communicate with our prospects in a simple and concised manner. This is the area in which we match the level of education of the prospects for ease of understanding. This is very important so that the new prospects can understand everything they are being offered to him/her before joining.

Also, having a detailed information about the company (SFI) and your upline would build the trust they have. This is where you show them proven track records of the company, your achievements as well as your upline.

Also, recruitng affiliates one-one, we must be ready to answer a number of questions that might arise during the course of recruiting. Why we are answering them so that when they join, the have an insight to SFI and would be able to duplicate our actions.

In summary, effective communication is very key to any business as it makes it easier to communicate with both your existing and new prospects.

All the best

Face to face is quite different from on-line marketing.
SFI is mostly a home on-line marketing platform so staying home with a computer connected to the internet and communicating, advertising on-line, with people who are also on-line connected.

But coming back to face to face which is so opposite compared with on-line marketing I think you need to develop the following skills:

1. Self confidence.
You need to really believe on your SFI business and to communicate with all your being that "This is the right business for the person who is face to face with you".

2. Closing the sale.
You need to to have an internal timer and to ask the person in front of you to join SFI at the right moment. You need to close the sale at the right time. Eventually as fast as possible.

3. Digest the rejection.
Like in any live game you need to accept that some people will refuse you opportunity. Digest that, learn from it and go forward.

4. Be knowledgeable.
You need to be full of knowledge about SFI, you need to be ready to answer any question with confidence and give value for your customer.

5. Really care about the person next to you.
This is something difficult to be explained but you really need to care about the person in front of you. You need to want his/her success. Be emphatic and put in his/her shoes. Naturally enter in a flow mood.

Prospecting affiliates face to face for SFI requires excellent communication skill. You must be able to present the program as accurately as you can. Remember that your prospects will listen to you only and if there is something to benefit from your presentation So, avoid to talk about yourself but rather the benefits that the prospects may enjoy.

When making a presentation, starting point is a meet and greet session. Briefly introduce yourself to the audience by your first and last name and the name of your company and the purpose of the presentation. Ask everyone in the audience to do the same, and finally ask them to address you by your first name and ask them politely if you can do the same. It is critical that you remember each attendee's name. Otherwise, one can always use a name plate drawn with a visible marking pen on a hard cover and place before each attendant for easy identification.

During the face to face presentation ask leading question frequently ea if you had xx dollars where would you be living? Which countries would you travel to? What kind of house would you live in? This questions will help you to arouse the interest of your prospects. Remember to respond to questions accurately, responsibly and honestly no hype.If you do not understand or don't have an answer to a question say so and, promise to look for the answer. Avoid at all cost engaging in an argument with your prospects.

Interesting question you have here!

I would say that you need to be talkative and extrovert, and above all, you need to know what you are talking about! You need to take care about your facial expressions.

Maybe it is easier to be effective to recruit affiliates face to face as it would be easier to explain everything, but in other hand, you need to be very well in matter as you never know what people may ask you. By doing e-mail marketing or chat in the social networks you have time to find an answer on any question. But, when you talk face to face, you don't have time to search for an answer. If that happen offer to them that you will let them know in a short period of time and do give them an answer.

Your facial expressions are also very important. If you talk about something and you glow, people will follow you, but if you talk as you don't believe in that, they will see it and feel it.

I think that you can be effective in face to face recruiting if you know what you are talking about and if you stay positive during the meeting.

Good luck recruiting!

Preparation, preparation and more preparation!

Preparation is key to effective recruitment. As the late Ji. Rohm has been quoted do say, "failing to plan/prepare is planning/preparing for failure".

Everyone can be his or her best when preparation is done. As stated in many business books, the 80/20 rule applies to even recruitment.

Consider first what you home to achieve with your recruitment efforts: more PSA's, more CSA's, more PRM's, more ECA sign-UPS, a wide spread customer base ...the choices are endless.

Once your end goal has been determined, go to the beginning and consider what strategies will get you to achieve your end goals or close to them. Once you've identified the strategies then it's time to write your business plans...yes plans.

Your recruitment efforts are best to be diversified as one scripted response may not resonate with people so you have to keep on trying with a planned approach B, C, D and so forth. Never give up as every effort is simply your preparation for the REAL deal.

So do more by being more to a wide range of potential recruits - young, old, married, single, business professionals, professional students, business owners, unemployed, post secondary educated, street smarts educated and so forth.

Have fun and don't do less but more when you prepare as you'll be ready for anything that comes your way - that's being effective!

I heard something the other day that I think applies to this question, "Believe what you are saying! How can you convince anyone to believe what you are saying if you don't believe it yourself?" You need to be confident that SFI is the best opportunity available to achieve long term financial success. You can gain confidence by learning as much as you can about SFI and how it works.
Do you remember what convinced you to join SFI? Be willing to share with your recruit why you joined. Be prepared to answer questions and always be completely honest with your answers. If your recruit loses confidence in you, they also lose confidence in SFI.
Practice what you are going to say. You can probably get a family member to listen and give you feedback on your presentation.
Listen to your recruit. Don't get so caught up in thinking about what you want to say that you miss out on what they are saying.
Always be polite and professional. Always remember to say thank you to your recruit for taking the time to listen to your presentation.

Hi,
I am glad you are interested to recruit people face to face, this means lots of self confidence, knowledge about the business, some experience not only regarding the SFI but also working with people.
Every person has it's own goals and interests, so at firs you must start a relaxing conversation and bring the the possible client to gain some confidence in you. This means you need to know how to speak with every one, with simple people you need to communicate in a simple way and with complicated people you have to communicate a little bit more elevated.
You don't have to be a psychologist but to find some information about the person you are talking with in very few questions.
At the beginning of the meeting it is your time to talk and ask questions, but don't speak too much to confuse the person. You need to know how to point what is important and the advantages of SFI and at the same time what could interest mostly the possible client.
Working ' on the field' as we use to say , is hard many many will refuse you or wouldn't even want to hear what you have to say, but every refuse from them will strengthen you , don't ever let yourself down.
You also have to take a look in the mirror before you go to the meeting, you should be propely dressed, business clothes, you should be clean and pleasant, you should talk with yourself in the mirror , encourage yourself, smile all the time, have " the attitude" , people should see in you the success, no arrogance . You should be competent from all points of view.
So I think a person who just entered for a month in SFI and became EA is not yet ready to go and recruit people on the field, I think you need at least 3 months of work in front of your computer , of reading, learning and informing.
Yes, a beginner could recruit family and close friends, as we call it the warm market, but for other people you don't know well, work mates, friends of friends and strangers ( the cold market), you have to be professional.
So get THE ATTITUDE, your knowledge, the self confidence and get out there!
I hope i was helpful :)

Recruiting affiliates face to face and one on one should only form a small part of your sponsoring campaign.

For a start, depending on your personality, you need to be the type of person who is comfortable with talking business face to face, has the charisma of a successful car salesman, and can take No for an answer with grace and dignity.

There are books and self-help e-books you can read and get inspirations from, articles in SFI training tools and manuals, tips and hints from internet gurus which can help you develop personally and gain confidence with the knowledge.

However, there are more effective ways of sponsoring/recruiting affiliates by buying a share in the S-Builder Co-op, or from some good ECAs, PSAs To Go, etc. without the need of going through the trauma of a face to face rejection.

The foremost effective tool to be effective is knowing your subject matter very well and that's SFI.
Another thing you'll need is confidence and excitement because that is contagious.
In addition, arm yourself with cards of SFI and Tripleclicks you may hand out to your prospects.
Approach each prospect with a smile, a greeting and introduction of who you are and what you represent- SFI.
You may begin your presentation by showing the card and explaining what its all about. Grab his attention by letting him know what he stands to earn if he follows the plan and remain committed.
Let him know however that the business is not a fly by night or get-rich-quick scheme but a real online business that people are using to change their story financially.
Show him the ropes by introducing him to the website. Explain what each site represents and what action is expected to be performed there.
