There might be a need to reassign PSAs from time to time. The whole purpose of reassigning PSAs is to obtain leverage. One has to consider several factors when reassigning PSAs. Reassigning PSAs to someone in their own country is a good idea provided certain criteria is fulfilled.

A good understanding of leverage is needed before you reassign PSAs. You can have thousands of affiliates in your first generation but if they find that they can’t make any progress they will continue to be inactive. Team Leaders are your aces in SFI. Developing TLs should be one of the priorities because every committed TL creates residual income stream for you and it grows month to month.

The question now is how you develop TLs. This is where the reassignment of PSAs come into play. Tell your affiliates that if they become an EA this month you will reassign maybe 5, 10 or more new affiliates to them as an incentive. Better still if you can reassign EAs under them and by doing so they accumulate more VersaPoints.

So with the incentives you will have a good pool of EAs. The next step is to develop them into TLs. Identify your 5 most committed and active EAs. The reassignment of EAs come into play by moving your other EAs so that your 5 most committed and active EAs are all converted to TLs. Then help them to duplicate downline. In essence you have leveraged by reassigning and created a solid team.

So if you have potential PSAs spread across different countries it’s a good idea if you can leverage by reassigning them to form a strong team all from the same country. Localised leverage duplicates faster because you can learn about the best marketing methods and strategies for your region in the world.

I don’t think that it is a bad idea to reassign PSAs to your downline who are in the formers' own locality or country. It will certainly give an additional boost towards their growth and also in interacting much easily with their sponsor. Constant interaction in their own language will instill more confidence in them to perform much better and to their fullest to produce positive results in the system.

However, it is also to be noted that the reassignment is being made to the right and deserving and active downline member otherwise, you can expect only the negative and passive results from them. I use to reassign PSAs to my downline every month on the basis of their location, language and the proximity to each other but above all, I always look at the potential candidate’s attitude and ability to groom and nurture the reassigned one to a successful affiliate. As a sponsor, it is utmost important to take a right and pragmatic decision in this very sensitive matter.

Think of growth, think of duplication and think of long term goals, then take a decision, I am sure, you will have the last laugh always.

Wish you all the best !!!

It is always a great Idea to reassign your PSAs to someone in your team who belongs to the same country. Here are some points to support my answer

1. It increases the chances to keep the new affiliate active as he can understand the system better from his country mate.

2. He can use his mother tongue to understand the needs better.

3. He will have high faith on the business as the payment and shipping varies from country to country.

4. After all, It increases the depth in your team and also, it increases the faith of your downline on your leadership quality by reassignment.

I think that this is a fantastic way to grow your business.

If you reassign affiliates to a "go getter" in their own country they will be able to communicate with them in their own language, be mindful of cultural differences and be able to help them with so many other things that someone from another country can't do.

It also takes a bit of the burden off you if you have a large team, you can share the load out.

I've reassigned about 60 affiliates to a "go getter" from another country just a month ago and now have a BTL and 4 EA's out of it. These are much better results than you would normally get.

You will notice however, that I said "go getter". You need to pick your new "team leader" carefully though. You need someone who is really going to help the affiliates you have reassigned.

I've only done this for one country at the moment but am looking for "go getters" from other countries to do the same.

When thinking about reassigning your PSAs to someone taking consideration of the country of origin of your PSAs, ask yourself these questions: Will it benefit your PSA and that someone in your downline? Will it benefit the whole team?

Advantages of reassigning new PSAs to someone in your downline in their own country:

- Cultural background plays an important role in communication, eliminating language barriers.

- That someone in your downline, (EA, EA2, TL) will take off the burden of explaining the daily task to your PSAs that are being assigned. In short sharing your responsibilities.

- Build closer relationship. May be that someone in your downline is in a better position to understand the challenges that the PSAs are facing upon starting their ventures in SFI.

If you are willing to learn about other people- their ideas, interests, viewpoints-the better job you can do in serving them, in building a team, which is founded in trust and commitment. You’ll be in a better position to duplicate yourself.

Yes if you have other PSAs in the same country as him/her. The most important thing is to reassign to a downline member who speaks the same language as the person being reassigned. An example of this is that if you have an African PSA who speaks French but your other african team members live in the UK and speak only English then you will not be able to reassign to them but if you have a French Canadian PSA then you can reassign your french speaking african to the French Canadian ( because he/she speaks French).

If it is possible to reassign an affiliate so someone in the same country then it would be fabulous because that way they can meet in person and communicate much easier or even communicate on the phone, and guess what even if you reassign an PSA it will still be your affiliate but in the second generation instead of the first and you will make better matching VP because communication in your downline will be much easier when the same language is understood.

I wish you a lot of success, see you at the top!

Yes it is a good idea, but, I would not limit my reassignments to this idea.

There are some obvious advantages to same country reassignments.
I would consider a few of things prior to reassigning PSAs.
Mentoring and advancing your downlines progress can be influenced by matching
some affiliates with the same or similar cultural backgrounds.
Language is an important consideration, to avoid translation difficulties.
You may find it more beneficial for growing your downline through duplication
by pair people in the same country.
These pairings often make it easier for the receiving PSA to continue
in their own growth.
They may influence patronizing local ECAs, planting the seeds for more to join.

Although the above can be an smart considerations.
The premise of this or any affiliate program is its ability to cross
countries, cultures and language barriers and be the success that it is.

I would make reassignments based on the advantage it gives to my affiliates
and my team building efforts.

If you have repeatedly tried to contact a PSA but haven’t received any feedback, one of the reasons may be the language barrier. Particularly so if you notice that he/she is logging in regularly and trying to find the way. In such cases, it’s most probably a good idea to reassign that PSA to someone from his/her own country as that would be beneficial for both of you.

But, if you have already determined that there is no language barrier and the PSA is doing a good job, I don’t see why you would want to reassign him/her to anyone else.
After all, if you’re considering reassignment, you can always ask the PSA how he/she would feel about it, to help you make the decision.

It would be a good idea to re-assign your PSA/CSA to someone of their own country, if only there seems to be a language barrier. The country sponsor/co-sponsor can explain in detail and more clearly using local metaphores etc.

last week I had a local affiliate ask me how I managed to achieve BTL status and if I could help him through as he is new at SFI. his English was also not very good so I had to explain to him in the local dialect (Sinhala).

Well, some would suggest using google translator, but at time the meaning or idea you want to get across is not what come out through the translator.

So yes, I would say its a good idea. Sometimes this PSA would be grateful and maybe shop at your ECA and recommend your stores to his/her a2a friends and family.

Reassign your PSAs to someone in their own country?

Yes and no.

YES if you have enough PSAs as your movers at first generation downline. Let us say that you have 5 or 6 frontliner workers downline. Re assign to them if the affiliates subject for re assignment has 600 VP or more for three months. Re-assignment makes your downline whom receive re assign affiliates encourage more to work hard building their SF I business. Re assign affiliates to the most deserving one. There is a possibilities also that you can't guide/assist all of them if they need you if they are more than 6.

NO; If you don't have other PSAs who are workers/movers. You need PSAs for your first generation because, if you can help them build their network stronger, you can earn more from them both on VPs and commissions.

Hope this helps
