My opinion on the best way to motivate your downline is,
1. To lead by example. We can motivate our downline to success if we are successful in the business. There is no motivation better than that. We must prove that the business works and then, they can follow likewise.
2. We should be supportive to our downlines. We should always be there to help. If we can do both tips, it will act as a strong motivator to our downline. Thanks.

I must establish a communication strategy very effective and i search to respond as much as possible when the affiliates need to help.Important communicate to skype, emails.I think the first thing that we should do to motivate them to engage in long term endeavor is to start with ourselves. I feel my sponsor has did a great job,so I will follow his advice and start growing my team.

I think the best way to motivate downline is to make them understand the complete concept of SFI. After that Setting up competitions among all the members in your downline, which will help to develop curiosity to earn VP as many as they can. They should enjoy having more badges, explain each and every aspect which attracts their interest. Pricebender auction is one of the most interesting concept of SFI, give them complete do and dont's of bidding.

Try to help and make them a part of your family, have conversations either on phone or net but make them comfortable. Assure your availability any time when they need. Once they understand the concept, ask them to complete tasks which can give them rewards.

My team leader Harish who is always there for me whenever i have any question. And he has very good knowledge, so to be a good leader you have to gain complete knowledge.

Hmmm i'm late in answering this question therefore I must have a very good answer so that you will vote for my answer hehehehe... Probably, just offer him $100 per month? Do you think he will work? Of course this is ridiculous!!!

Ok here's my piece. Our tendency if we are motivating our down-lines is just to say any thing that will make them do something. We sometime sugarcoat SFI up to the point of lying or hiding the realities on how SFI works. This will result to short time motivation. But SFI is a long term program therefor we should motivate our downlines to long term endeavor.

I think the first thing that we should do to motivate them to engage in long term endeavor is to start with ourselves. Do we have a clear picture of SFI business model? and do we have a clear understanding on how to succeed in SFI? Are we convinced ourselves that SFI works? If you are not sure of these questions, go and study some more.

Secondly, we need to present SFI as it is. And keep on correcting misconceptions from your down lines. You can sense it when they are asking irrelevant question, or wrong questions, or peripheral questions. You answer them but always give the bigger perspective. The goal is realy for them to engage long term.

When your downline have grown, the reality is you can not attend to them all, so just send your general thoughts to everybody but keep an eye to your Aces. Give more attention and personalized coaching to this person.

I give them continuous Support. An incentive for becoming EA2 is also a good thing to keep their Spirits up. I award 10 TC Credits for everyone that makes EA2. Show them you care and look at their Ledgers, that way you can point out what they still have to do. Then you can teach them to duplicate and do the same for their Down Line. If they see that you are doing it, they will be more motivated. Cheers Evie

Hi,

Motivation! Everything in this world moves under this word. Without it, your are lifeless. You have to be first motivated to pass the same synergy to your downline. Think first out of SFI for a minute and look at the things that highly motivate you. What would be done to you to make you motivated? I usually ask myself these questions before i pass the same synergy to my downline. Remember, you will be communicating to same human beings like you. Now coming back to SFI, below are things that i usually do to motivate my team:

1. Always be the EXAMPLE. By this i mean, dont tell them to do things and yet they can see that you arent doing. For example, dont tell them to become an EA and yet you arent. Dont tell them that to participate in PB auction and yet you havent!
2. Always recognize their accomplishment as fast as you can. The moment they become and EA, congratulate them. The moment they make their first purchase, tap them and congratulate them. Someone feels cool when they are appreciated and it motivates them to be active.
3. Be patient with their progress. Remember, managing a team isnt easy. You will be dealing with different personalities and some will be slow and some will be fast. Always try to study your affiliates personality and move according to their pace. If you try to drag a slower person, you will lose the person. Get it?
4. Speak their language and always assist them. Hey, i dont know french. :) But i have a downline i communicate with him in this language. Of course i use google translator. But this PSA feels great everytime i communicate with him in his native language.

Hey, the above are some you can try and i believe you will see a change in your teams performance. Hope that helps.

Kind regards,

I try to be an awesome sponsor every which way I can. So motivating my downlines is one of my priorities.

I try to channel my enthusiasm for the business by regular personal communications, sharing valuable hints and tips I’ve come across while reading the posts in the Forum, building their confidence by sharing my own experiences, especially in participating the Pricebender auctions in the TripleClicks.

In addition, I offer incentives such as giving TCredits, $10 Gift Cards, and PSA re-assignment to help them keep the ball rolling nicely.

I celebrate every achievement of my downlines, congratulate them on my Leadership Page, stream post and giving them a great rap in my newsletter.

And most of all, I let them know I care for them and their success by my unstinting support and understanding for what they are going through and my belief that if there’s a will , there’s away for success.

It would be nice if there was a simple answer to how to motivate your downline--But setting an example of honesty, work ethic, and a sincere desire to make them succeed will move mountains of disappointments they have experienced on the Internet.

I believe in giving various gifts or rewards--but one must be careful not to buy their loyalty or drive. The main principle within the Bible is "DO UNTO OTHERS AS YOU WOULD HAVE THEM DO UNTO YOU" which translates into action of "Loving your neighbor as yourself.

This pattern is contagious if its real. It is so special in a world of selfish people who think of "ME first." Our attitude toward the inactive should be, "Here is someone to help". How may I do so? Mainly, by being understanding.

Many are simply poor. Many dream of getting "Rich Quick" because some slick guru has deceive them with double meaning words. They steal what little money most do have. Some may have difficulty resolving language barriers from English to their language.

The secret is not helping the whole world. Your limited world is the dozens of CSA's you are given to work with. Separate five or six people that show persistent effort---help those five get their five or six people. Draw them out of the pool of CSA's. To do that, you have to communicate with them. If you know how to do that, you have shown others the way--and those few will eventually grow into 10,000 people you have helped directly and indirectly. But you have to have the patience to wait for it. Make it your goal. More than a New Year's resolution.
