I wonder if some of isn't just curiosity? They can get some information from the sign up page but they want to see a bit more. This can only be done by signing in.
Everyone has the same problem and as a lot of the answers here say, just keep trying, send emails and teammails to them. Eventually they might see the light and work the business, otherwise in 12 months or so they'll just disappear from you genealogy. At least by them signing up you have the opportunity to communicate with them and

Greetings to all!
I think a lot of people think that if you can be a free member, you are no longer really need to work. I know very little done their job. I am writing to them briefings on what to do. I offer my help, feel free to ask questions. I'll send them an incentive to work, quotes, about perseverance. I hope that sooner or later will realize that to work, you need to understand the business essence of your message. We need more help. They must be made ??to understand that this business

I think that besides the prevalent issue of wanting a quick buck, working SFI requires time which many people do not have as they juggle life in this hectic environment. Trying to make ends meet and also building a business can be taxing.

In a time when people are receiving answers to their problems or desires in the moment - immediate gratification, it is hard to manage self when the answer is not forth coming right away. People are being fed daily the promise to get rich now, meaning today, thus forgetting that every venture we under take needs a little time and effort. This delayed gratification can cause many people to become uncomfortable and turn way from pursuing their own answer to their own dream. SFI is not a get rich quick

I think the majority think that this business is some type of get rich scheme, which it is not. So they may be disappointed at first. But you have to help them to realize that this is a legit business that will take time to build, but the future benefits will be well worth it.

Also, many are simply overwhelmed by all of the different opportunities available to make money with SFI, and instead of contacting their sponsor for help as to where to start or what to do, they decided to do

That’s an excellent question! It’s very attractive and easy to join. Furthermore, there are a lot of people out there looking for quick get rich avenues. The good thing about this is, some people will join and find that it’s very interesting after all. They will stay and become very successful at it, and go on to promote their new discovery. The other percentage of people will just give-up quickly when they realized that they have to do some work

Jim, you are correct. In my opinion the prospects look great to a newbie, and since it is free to signup, then one just jumps in thinking that money is at their finger tips to be made.

I believe that after one has signed up and then realizing that a good portion of work is there to be done to achieve the "Money" they give yp before trying as they are not mentally and physically prepared to take on that kind of responsibility.

The most you can do is to make your contact.

There's a lot of sign ups everyday but only few are active,

There are two reasons, one is most of the affiliates just promote their links and never shows support, I can see this most of the times in the forum. Second is some people are good at first but quit on the middle of the process. Mostly new ones behave this way, they try to jump from offer to offer just to find the fastest way to make money, but there is no such thing.

That's the trend not only here but in many online earning opportunities. Possible reasons could be,
i) The message sent out there is that you can earn at the comfort of your home. Most
people think you'll just sit and earn. The truth is they don't get the right message.
ii) Many who join and are promised lucrative commissions work so hard only to receive
amounts in commissions which according to them do not reflect on the effort they put,
the commissions are

I have noticed that a lot of people join SFI because it's free to join then they think that they will be earning loads of money without doing anything.Make sure every affiliate you sponsor has checked out the To-Do List at their SFI homepage. I have many of such. But what I do is send them regular attractive and encouraging mails.
