Whether you meet your prospect online or offline, writing a follow-up email is crucial to your success. Following up is about reminding your prospects that you exist. It’s about plugging into a routine drill to keep reminding others of the value proposition you have to offer.

Here are important points that you need to consider when writing follow-up e-mails to be effective in getting results:

* A good way to follow up an unanswered e-mail is by replying to the first one you sent. This will enable you to keep the follow-up short, make the initial context easy for the reader to find and emphasize that they have not responded to you.

* When sending a follow up e-mail on your prospects, they might not have read yet your initial e-mail. When your prospects receive your follow-up e-mails, they might need to dig through their inbox to search the original for context. This will of course require effort and you need to make sure that you make things easier for your prospects to achieve an optimal outcome.

* Schedule your follow-ups. The best way to make sure that you follow-up, is to schedule it during or immediately after you send an e-mail. Mark your calendar or use your calendar planer on your smartphone.

* Keep the time interval. The time interval between the initial e-mail and the follow up really depends upon where you are in the life cycle of a relationship or deal. For an initial e-mail, following up within 4 days or within a week is ideal. It really comes down to a feel thing. You don’t want to be pushy, so space out your follow up e-mails.

* To be effective in your follow-up, don’t forget to add your personal touch. Your prospects will clearly distinguish if you’re just sending a generic message or providing them the right information to easily understand what’s in it for them.

* Always make a reference of your first e-mail/conversation in your follow-up. Highlights the facts that your prospects need to know to make it easier for them to remember.

Effectiveness of follow-up is directly tied to how quickly follow-up occurs. You need to remember that the art of follow-up is less important than the act of follow-up. Get in the game first. And then work on your craft. Following the above guidelines will help you to follow up effectively that get results.

Every business needs to be follow up. Without follow up we can not build up any business.
Sometimes PSAs are work somewhere and they do not have time . But we must not forget to send them email every week to remind them rules of success.

1. We must save a copy of our 1st email about SFI basics, Launchpad and start.

2. Next email will be about how to get 1500VP and become EA.

3. Next email will be about commission and compensation package.

4. Next email will be about how to make money if PSAs cant understand we can send them again and again.

5. We can communicate not only through text email also video presentation. We can find many videos search from google and youtube and send them for clear picture of how to earn here .

6. Also we can send them contest page link of our leadership page where then can know about the contest that we have announced already with gifts.

7. Ask the PSAs to connect with as many as ECAs and promote their products where they can get 45% commission. Wherever they have chance they can copy and paste their affiliate link to get sales and sales means commission.

8. Find prospective ECAs from their countries first then try all over the world. ECAs sales get generate 10% commission life time.

9. Play eager zebra games and auctions also great way to get Tcredits, MRP and VP which are very essential to stay focus on the goal.

10. Overall maintain a minimum rank of EA is very important to get all executive pool benefit..

Good day Wayne,

Follow-ups are indeed very crucial to one's success. If we have recruited some PSA'S and they have joined but haven't logged on. We can send them an E card via their personal Email address or call them if they dropped their contact number.

If we do not do a proper follow up, then our form of advertisement will go to waste. A proper follow up is done but the main focus would be on active affiliates who have the drive and determination to succeed.

My follow up emails would include:-

1. Have you visited your Homepage to do your Daily Tasks. It expires after today.

2. Looking for how to play the eager zebra games, enter the t time game and stand the chance of getting 2 free t credits.

3. Enter the Daily Grand with a minimum of 10 Versa Points gotten from your Daily Tasks and stand the chance of winning some prizes.

4. Remember, its a new month. Minimum of 1500 versa points to partake from themTripleclicksnExecutive Pool.

5. Having a Standing Order can automatically qualify you to be an EA monthly with 125 t credits at the rate of $36.25.

These are some of the ideas I come up with in my follow up email that has worked and I do hope it would work for you.

All the best

Follow-ups are very important and crucial for one to have credibility, sincere and trust
worthiness in the business and show of care to the new affiliates as well as for the
existing team members.

If we focus on the new affiliates, your first impression makes a whole lot of difference for
You to be effective with the new team members.

Your follow-ups have to be genuine and have to come from you personally. Don’t use those
Automated follow-ups that comes from autoresponder every other day which annoys most.

Once in another Business after one signed-up, I immediately sent out a welcome letter and
The person respond me back, “ Am I getting this from automated machine or from a person?.
I wrote that person back , “ I am a real Person ’’ That’s where it started and our communication
Was suburb ever since. He told me also he never seen anyone like me before and never once
his past sponsors contacted him or talked to him except sending him autoresponder encrypt messages.

My follow-ups are always a simple written message at that very moment depending on what
I see from the new team member work activity, or haven’t started yet, or started and
Stopped few days later. Everything case by case.

I always welcome my new sign-ups 90% of the time within 15 to 45 minutes of my notifications
Arrived. Because of that reason In most cases I will be able to catch them while they are
Still online and I was able quickly to introduce myself with instant message, and for most part
We communicate right away asking and answering question, the follow-up become so easy
After wards in both direction.

Take things to the heart, don’t bombard them with messages, don’t nag them why they
Are not active or not doing the Job. Time to time update them new developments, include
Them with your team mail, ask what you can do for them or how they want you to change
Their life, If they really want they will. Just be Gentle and sincere.

For your active team members, follow-up on their progress, keep a close eye what they do.
Ask what they want to achieve, give them advice as necessary, help them when they want
You, but never try to be in charge even if you are their leader to boss them around, be a
Good leader as well as a good friend. Keep the communication line open.

If you start well at the beginning, all the rest of follow-ups and others will fall in place.
That’s why they say First impression makes a big difference.

Follow up is basically a check on your affiliates and the progress, if any they are making. It enables you to understand them better and help them if they find any area that is complicated to understand. Sometimes affiliates shy away from asking questions in the belief that they will seem somewhat silly or inferior so a follow-up takes away that inhibition.

I use my Movers List to keep a daily check on my workers and when I find that someone has not logged in for more than 2 days, I see this as a necessary point in time to send out an e-card making sure that everything is okay and ask why the affiliate has not logged in for a few days. E-Cards are very useful.

This first e-card brings up the answer why the affiliate has not logged in and gives me an indication of any suggestions or answers I can provide to the cause of not being active. Secondly it ensures regular contact which is important to have so that you keep the affiliate motivated and not lose focus.

As I have found in the past, writing emails to affiliates brings up a certain amount of informal communication set up and affiliates respond to this positively - I bring up new developments and areas that the affiliate may not have had a chance to look at. It gives the affiliate something to do towards the business.

I like to keep lines of communications open so in most cases, I pass on my skype or personal telephone contact to the serious affiliates and this shows my seriousness towards their progress. Very often, phone messages are a quick way to encourage people. A good word, praise, appreciation and rewards should never be underestimated. It generally makes people feel good about what they are doing.

It would be very important to follow up new affiliates if not compulsory, to ensure they understand the SFI business and have a firm base of how to start growing, this just the right tradition. As many new affiliate though its a get fast riches biz, which we need to really make sure we explain to them before they turn down the business opportunity.

Starting with a good welcome message, our follow up messages must be very encouraging and must state clearly how much we are ready to help them through the basis until the become pros and start earning as they wish.

Just in case you have been using Auto responder for new affiliates, I think its not going to meet their present challenge, your follow up message must be personal, its kinda stressful but it is worth it. I have spoken to some ex-affiliates who complained about messages everyday, so one has to be careful to send messages with useful information that would help build a sponsor- affiliate relationship.

Most times I do have to send a very short Welcome message with useful links so as not to bore them on the first day with too much notes, because I hate notes my self. I send links which leads to their Launch Pad, SFI Videos, Getting Started, and To-Do List because there is much to do there. Once I receive a message containing what they understand and what they don't I quickly start sending them how it works which takes time for sure.

Also, in every of my followup messages, I always restate my commitment to helping them and ensuring they grow. This usually encourage some to start asking more questions.

Sometimes I take time to spell out they are not mandated to buy any products because many of them will ask which product are to sell to make money. I have to explain to them that SFI is not such, all we do is actions and if you feel you need to buy anything then it's at your discretion. This also put some to ease and want to know how to begin gather VP. Which I explain it through actions again, but you need to invest to earn more.

Few times, I explain to them the benefits of New Membership Pack which is meant for them at the rate of $20 per pack. It is meant for new members who really want to start growing. For the record there is no limit to the amount they can buy within their first 10days. Just to encourage them you could tell them to purchase a pack and then have them send their reciept so you can give a gift of $5- $10 Gift Certificate. They will know you are ready to help them. These are what they see as an impression to help them continue.

I always never forget to mention to include those who have up to 600VP in my Co-op just to see those who want to pick up, I get responses sometimes and its just important to keep it that way.

There is not more than to be genuine, and be responsible personally for the new affiliates

I hope this helps

Thank you for your question because it is one that I don't remember seeing before now. I agree that follow ups can be used successfully but I try not to overdo them because I don't want to seem to be a pest. That would defeat the purpose.
I wait a few days after the first welcome message and see if the new PSA is logging into SFI. If they are active but hasn't pursued fast track, I sent a message to let them know that it is only available for a limited time. I include the fact that it is very important if they are serious about their SFI business. I tell them that I didn't realize how important it was and lost my first opportunity. I was given a second chance when SFI restructured the program and I am now a silver fast track member.
I check my mover's list daily and if the PSA has been active but has missed three days, I will send an ecard to see if they need help. I am blessed with an awesome sponsor who has always been available to his team and is always willing to help. I want to follow his example and to make sure that my team knows that I will be there for them.
I also believe that it is important to acknowledge my teams achievements by sending ecards. I don't know of anyone who would object to a pat on the the back for a job well done. I also try to send birthday and anniversary cards.
The main follow up and I believe the most important one is to always respond promptly to requests from your team and to always be honest with them.

One thing I understood through my regular mails to my Team was:

Nobody likes to be told, "Do this; Do that" regularly.

How I came to this conclusion?

There was absolutely no response for any of my mails from most of my team members. Only few kept answering my communications.

Then, I changed the way of my mails.

In every mail, I kept asking them:

1. "What I can Do for you so that you can get started?"

2. "What sort of help I can do so that you can advance further?"

3. "Please let me know How can I support so that you will know many things quickly and move on?"

The emphasis was on: "How I can support them for their growth?"

Soon, I started seeing good results and few of them are quite active and advancing step by step.

This I learned from one of the Training Materials written by Gery.

When we approach with a genuine concern and make the team members understand it, certainly we can see results from few if not from the majority.

Please change your way of writing team mails & start showing more care and concern which should be easily understood by them. Once they realize this, I am sure, you will find positive response from your Team. From there, it will be easy to build the relationship further and grow together!!

What sort of results are your referring to?

1) Sales from TripleClicks?
2) Activity from your PSAs?

It all depends on how you got your prospects to sign up in the first place. If you have gotten their email address through a squeeze page, then if your squeeze page were promoting SFI you can follow up with them explaining what SFI is all about and what they need to do to succeed.

Like the Signing Bonus and the simple actions they can do to increase their Signing Bonus from $20 to $40. And then you can explain (in your next letter) about collecting VPs and earning revenue shares. And you can talk about TripleClicks and the various products that bring in revenue to SFI (that's where our revenue shares, i.e TC Executive Pool) comes from. Teach them how to advertise. Offer rewards for a certain milestone reached (don't have to be a big milestone - could be an offer for 1 free PSA for each PSA they bring in themselves).

Try various strategies. The good thing about email newsletter (or autoresponders) is that you can try one way first, then if it doesn't get the result you're targeting for, try a different strategy the next month.

If you started with TripleClicks, explain about Pricebenders, explain about the games, review the products you have bought, then slowly start explaining about SFI in case SFI is more in their interest than TripleClicks.

There are various different people out there. One strategy will not work all the time. You will need to test and tweak.
