I tried several methods of motivating my team, I did regular messaging. I tried giving incentives but so far the best way I learned to motivate my team is through Relationship.

I Have really decided to take time to cultivate friendship with my movers and journey together with them in our SFI business.

Now I don’t just enjoy SFI, but I also enjoy the friendship with my team. We formed a close group in FB and just spend our time talking about just anything.

One of my down-lines, who is obviously, have more resources than me even paid for ads for me to get more PSA. Simply because, he is my friend.

There are few principles that I learned to remember in this method.

1)I must seek real friendship and not just for the SFI but beyond. In our chat for example we talk about family problems and many other things outside SFI.

2)I must realized that I can not do this to a lot of people – So, I just concentrate my efforts on my “Movers” – This is very much inline with the principle of “working with the workers”.

3)I must make myself as added value to him and to his SFI business – I need to know deeper and wider about SFI. – They will never be interested if they sense that they know more that you do.

4)Patience is a virtue both in SFI and in cultivating friendship.

You maybe interested with the result. I now have 10 friends who are all earning and very active PSA’s. They are giving me good amount of monthly commission. We now have 4,400+ affiliates in my organization and I am harvesting more than 100T VP per month.

For me personally, it was easier for me to motivate my team when they saw I'd achieved EA2 status and stayed there. I believe you have to show your team that you are working the program, every day, and then share that excitement. It'll rub off on those who are serious about building a long-term business.

Another thing I do is stress a "sharing and caring" attitude. I do this by:
1. Sending out weekly team mailers
2. Creating video tutorials to help brand new affiliates - you really get to show your enthusiasm for SFI in a video!
3. Making sure each member has the link to my business blog, especially the link directly to the SFI section of the blog.

I also find it easy to encourage and motivate people who aren't able to invest any cash to set up a standing order right away because I didn't either. I've been with SFI for about 9 months and only this month did I set up my SO using my commissions.

Obviously, it takes a little longer to work the program this way, but at the same time, I'm learning new things all the time and sharing everything I learn.

Those that are serious about starting a solid Internet business will be motivated and encouraged by you - if you are serious about your own business. You enthusiasm will show through your team mails, personal emails, your Leadership page, forum posts, etc.

If your team sees how active you are inside of SFI, they'll see you're on the path to success and they'll want to follow you.

I provide my Team with encouraging messages that helps them better understand the multiple avenues to earn income with SFI and TripleClicks. These include advising them specifically how to make EA and Team Leader status every month with either no or minimal expense.

I also provide them with specific details on how to use marketing strategies which I've used successfully over the years which allows them to duplicate my efforts.

I personally respond to every single Email and Team Mail with detailed information directly related to their question.

I send welcome, commitment, and other achievement related emails recognizing their efforts.

I send reassignments to some of the best and hard working new affiliates.

I do regular streams advising them of information not easily found without doing advanced searches.

I maintain a minimum of 13-15 badges so they know I'm involved with all aspects of the program.

And finally, I maintain my Leadership page with blog entries, recommendations, tips, and recognitions of achievements.

1. At the very least, I communicate with them weekly with an email encouraging them on the fantastic business they are in.

2. I give the same process that I use to build my business in SFI, and show them how they can profit by doing the very same things I do.

3. Sometimes I run contests and award the top performers with TCredits or affiliates.

4. I congratulate all my affiliates who make EA or TL status. That is a job well done, and shows me that they are committed to building their business.

5. Answering all their questions that they send is very important. If you don't care about their questions, why should they care about building their business?

6. Whatever I ask my affiliates to do, I make sure I have done them, or I am continuing to do them, everyday. Hopefully, by seeing how successful my team grows, they can know that they are the reason for the success, and they can have the same results too!

I'll send them messages like this regularly:

1. Don't give up. I know progress may seem bleak in the beginning but stay focused be consistent and persistent. Your efforts directly reflect your productivity.

#2. Make sure you communicate with your downline as well as your upline. Give your downline support and try to answer questions they may have. If your sponsor seems invisible, don't let that hinder your success. Be a better sponsor to your affiliates.

#3. Stay plugged in. Login everyday if possible. Check your messages, and alerts. Check your progress on the scoreboard and your sales in the Tripleclicks store. Remember this is YOUR store. Treat it like a brick and mortar business...You gotta open up the door for business, check your messages, check on your store inventory, monitor what is selling and what isn't and train your team.

#4. Always track your advertising methods. This way you know which advertising methods are working and which ones are not. This will save you money and time. Ask your upline member which methods have worked for him/her. Some affiliates are computer savvy enough to market online(email marketing, PPC, personal website...etc) and some may need a little more help at it. Some affiliates are better at working the telephone and some are better at working the post office. Either way it's all good. Help your downline affiliate find a way to promote his/her business that is most comfortable for him/her.

Your sponsor/cosponsor.

It's the most important and toughest part of our SFI business. but let's take it as a challenge .

Best and easiest way to motivate team member's is by achieving success and to lead by example. Achieving success brings self confidence and that is reflected in our communication with our team member's.

Again achieving success gives us new badges which are seen by our team members and they get motivated from badges too.

Above all this , we as a Team Leader must be always available to our team members and always be ready to help them with there problem.Easily available and always ready to help Team Leader inspires team member's to try an extra hard to advance in our business .

Well,according to me, this is one of the most important questions asked here,because whole system of sfi is somehow dependent on this one thing.."MOTIVATION".
Motivation to give your whole effort here.
What i think the best ways are :

1.Rewards,like Reassignments,tcredits,gift cards etc. but whatever you give them as reward, first, you must tell them their value and how they can be used.

2.Your time and experience . I think it is most important, because you are their leader, so you must know about your team and what they want from you.
You should be in contact of them, if possible by phone or email also.
You should tell them how you started here, what you have gained,what to do and most important "WHAT NOT TO DO",because this will save their time and money.

For example :If you tried some paid advertising from a website and it gave disastrous results to you and some of your known persons, you can at least tell your team not to waste their money at that site.

I hope it helps .

This is an important question. Some of the ways you can motivate your team are as follows:

1. Lead by Example. This principle works any day. If you are encouraging your team to read their LaunchPad, get an S-Builder, or go to the Auctions and so on, it will make more impact when they see you have done so.

2. Be an Awesome Leader. Be apt in responding to your team anytime they need your attention, provide the necessary guide they need to grow their businesses, post a good photo of yourself on your SFI Homepage and keep up with the latest news in SFI. These have a way of creating the necessary confidence and trust required for a good team activity.

3. Create team contests once in a while using your leadership page (Reward/Incentive tab). Your team will become active when they know they could win TCredit, gift certificate or MRP while they build their own teams.

4. Share the secret of your success with your team and reassign affiliate to your active PSAs once in a while.

I hope this helps

I always send individual messages to my list of movers.

I post in Streaming a minimum of every three days. I also send Team Mail at least three times a week. Sometimes I will refer my team to a video, sometimes I will tell them to be sure to read the Alerts, and I will copy something that I want to be sure that they see if they are not online every day.

It is important to realize that in other parts of the world (I live in the US) there are people whose only internet access is at an internet cafe and they may not be able to be online every day, but I still encourage them and that is why I will copy something that I think is important for them to read.

I hope that they will be motivated, but you can lead the horse to the water but you can't make him drink. Therefore, I just keep trying to encourage them and be positive.
