My personal feeling is that there is no point in reassigning an inactive affiliate to an active one...
There is always for you the possibility of making some VP's out of your reassignment;
There is also a slight possibility of a connection happening between two new individuals who interact;
But, I would prefer to reassign someone who might contribute to the efforts of my active affiliate than to reassign someone who would not make a difference for him/her.
I would keep on trying to make my inactive members active in any way I can and,
if one day, a change in his/her situation brings him/her back into action then,
I could envision the possibility of reassigning to an active affiliate.

Am a new SFI affiliate. To me, is a BAD idea. My sponsor, saying that he was "rewarding" me for my quick progress, has saddled me with a bunch of dormant referrals who are simply deadwood. Makes me think he doesn't value or respect me. Wish SFI would just drop them.
Honestly your question just enlighten me and all the sponsors who are reassigning their affiliates. Based on my experience I received affiliates from my sponsor as rewards, while checking their records, I have seen more than 50 affiliates who were registered long time back but never get even one VP. After several follow ups, some of them became active. It is actually advisable to reassign the inactive affiliates to those active affiliates who have potential or skills to motivate individuals. It is proper to distinguish the ability and skills of our downlines because they are the big part of our success.

In my professional experience, I would not reassign inactive affiliates to affiliates who are very active. However, one can test to see if reassigning an affiliate would motivate them to become serious about their SFI business. In the ladder case, I'd try to match that affiliate with a new sponsor from his/her own geogragraphic region. Maybe, there was a disconnect between me and the PSA and I can faciliate a meaning partnership by assigning them to a new sponsor from their own culture and idealologies. Furthermore, this may remove any language barrier since many affiliates are from non-english speaking countries. Consequently, I've supported my inactive affiliate by reassigning him/her to someone that can better serve there needs. This is a win, win, win for everyone involved!
Notwithstanding, active affiliates deserve to be rewarded with active affiliates. Their is nothing more rewarding that getting TL qualification points when you haven't logged in due to some extenuating circumstances. Those affiliates who are BTLs need EA2s to help them maintain that milestone. The same applies to STLs, GTLs, and PTLs. This is a very effective way to create duplication through many generations for multiplied commissions. I'm an active recruiter and as such, I am looking for leaders and movers and shakers! This is how I support them best. This is the best way to reassign affiliates.

It all depends on how you do it. If your other active affiliate wants to take the challenge of working with the inactive ones to activate them , then go ahead . So I would say communicate first, tell them the truth and if they accept then reassign the inactive ones to them.
If no one wants the inactive ones, then reassign the inactive ones to other inactive affiliates . This way you will clean up your lists of direct PSA-es and you get the 5 VP, where applicable, as well.
In my opinion you can not motivate someone who is in active. Inactivity is the result of choices. If a person chooses to place SFI low on the priority list for the day then inactivity is the result of that choice. In other words, you can not motivate an individual to activity if they choose to give SFI a low priority ranking in the days long list of things to do. I hope that helps. See you at the top! Todd L.

Reassigning them wouldnt be a great idea. You will be passing out bad seeds to your PSA and remember that your PSA are your hope in succeeding in SFI if they find the program lucrative and working. Look it at this way, how would you feel if your sponsor gives you inactive PSA? It wont motivate you at all.
Best advice would be to try and communicate to them to logging they SFI account so as they can learn how the program works. This wont work with your first email, it will take days and weeks to get them to login. Well, if they dont, just like dried woods, the SFI system will deactivate their account and life moves on.

I personally dont agree with this idea. By the end of the day we will be chasing the active away from SFI. I wonder if I had 500 inactive affiliates under me and just 2 active, I would rather stick to the 2 and maintain as a member of SFI.
Inactivity is not a sign of lack of interest. It has been said that we can only work closely with a few at hand. The best advice I have heard so far is to work with the top five on your team. Reassigning affiliates active or in active make for a more effective team structure. Inactive affiliates are still affiliates and they should still get attention, reassigning them to other affiliates creates two opportunities.
1. The affiliates assigned the inactive affiliates have an opportunity to grow in their ability to communicate. Teaching is an art that develops when there is an active audience or not.
2. The affiliate assigned may see something new from a different perspective. They may "connect" better with their assigned sponsor or have something in common that sparks their interest.
Building a team is first and foremost about relationships. Putting people together is an act of the universe and you can never know what will happen when two people meet for the first time. If they don’t work with you they may need someone else. You gain either way.
