I have a large downline, but few are advertising SFI. How can I get them to start advertising and marketing SFI?

One way to get them to advertise SFI is to hold a contest for those who sponsor new affiliates or new ECAs. You may want to set up a free autoresponder like Listwire and provide training on free advertising to those of your affiliates who opt in to your mailing list.

It’s all about letting them see the “great picture”. If they can’t see the destination, they will never start the journey. So, find and test for yourself the best and most duplicable advertising method which really works for you and, based on your example, help them to set their goals, make a plan and work that plan, bearing in mind the SFI basics: https://www.sfimg.com/SFIBasics

Encourage them to submit SFI ads to some free ad sites. If they are persistent who knows? They might get some affiliates that way if they are short on cash.

It is sometimes hard to extimate the costs of advertising and your team might be reluctant to get into it incase it costs more than they would like to spend

You might like to point them to googles ad words and yahoos bing ad in total £80 of free ads - In that way they can test out free of charges and find that they can advertise for just $1 per day.

Dont forget to tell them about the key codes so they can see how many people click through from the web site/s

THE BEST WAY TO SHOW PEOPLE HOW TO GET A DOWN LINE, IS TO LET THEM KNOW HOW YOU DID IT.
TRY TO PUSH FREE AD`S AT FIRST, SOMEONE WHO JOIN MAY NOT HAVE A LOT OF MONEY TO BEING WITH. ALSO SEE IF ANY ONE IS DOING ANYTHING TO HELP THEMSELVES, YOU COULD THEN LOOK AT PAID AD`S.3 WAVE IS ALSO GOOD AT VERY LITTLE COST, THIS GET THE WORD OUT AND THEY GET SOME MOVEMENT FROM THEM TO.
YOU COULD LOOK AT PLACING SOME ONE UNDER THEM IF THEY GET TWO OR THREE PEOPLE TO JOIN.
THIS WAY SHOULD MAKE THEM

When I started SFI I was sceptical as to whether this was a ligitimate business, but when I made $8 in my first month I was hooked.
That's the key. Our new affiliates have to make something in their first month to want to try to make even more. I have helped new ones by offering them 1 month of free advertising in a coop and I give them a list of places I advertise to encourage them to do so on their own.
Although this may seem an expense to me, it's not, because what ever helps my downline

It might be that they don't know how to advertize. Send them Team Mail with lessons on how to properly advertize. A lot of us didn't know how to advertize when when joined SFI. Even if that isn't the problem, just the fact that you are teaching it may be enough to motivate them. After all, you are showing them how important it is to you and their success. If you haven't already done so, start an advertizing Co-Op with the ones that show interest in it. You get 100vp for doing so, and it helps

The easiest way to handle this problem is by setting up an advertising coop and inviting them to participate in it. This way you can even generate additional prospects that you can allocate to the ones who are active but have limited or no budget to advertise. This way you will be helping the ones who are not that experienced in on-line marketing and the ones who have limited budgets.
