SFI tends to be overwhelming to majority of the affiliates here mainly because they have their eyes set on the pot of gold. We've heard the success stories of our sponsors and if you've finished the LaunchPad, I'm sure you'll also remember a lesson wherein they prominently featured successful SFI affiliates earning crazy amounts monthly.

Knowing these stories is good and all, but people tend to set these success stories as their goals. While I do admire the optimism, we need to be down to earth as much as possible. First of all, you know yourself better than anybody else. You know what your skills are, you know how fast you can learn new skills, you know your budget, and basically you know every single detail about yourself that will ultimately dictate the pace of your SFI business. My point? You need to set realistic goals. You can't start out as an Affiliate and expect to be Platinum Team Leader hauling in VP like crazy. Do situations like that happen? Sure they do but it happens to those who are veterans in advertising with deep pockets. If you're like me, a novice in advertising who is able to learn new things daily without necessarily having a deep pocket, then you've got to set goals that you believe are attainable.

For example, let's say your an affiliate. An attainable goal would be to aim for Executive Affiliate status by the end of the month. Another example. Let's say you earned $1 in commissions for a specific month. Don't aim for the stars and set a goal of a 4 figure income by the end of a specific month. Just aim to get higher than that dollar. Always aim to try and earn a commission value that is higher than your previous months commission. In time, you'll reach a 4 figure income.

It's all about taking baby steps and accumulating those baby steps to form 1 huge step. The important thing is that you begin your journey today. It will bring you that much closer to the day you start making insane amounts with SFI. Pass this word on to your affiliates as well, and all of you will have an easier, stress free SFI business. And try to have fun. I mean the look and feel of SFI is not boring at all and is in fact pretty exciting to me. Never have I considered Network Marketing fun. Until the day I met SFI. Love story? Lol. Well, what's not to love right?

Hi!

I personally feel that we must get ourselves to get a grasp and a good understanding of the bigger picture about what SFI is all about.

We must clearly understand our role. The simple bottom line must first be instilled in all of us.

I have made up for myself what I believe SFI is all about and what my role is in this business and I want to share it with you:


? TripleClicks is the backbone of our company.

? My main role is to market and sell TripleClicks's products.

? To improve my marketing and sales:

? I must build a team of people who must also market and sell TripleClicks's products.

? My team members must build their own teams to market and sell the products.

? I must support, coach and assist my team members in doing that.

? To fully share in the different income streams created by the sales of TripleClicks's products, I must become an Executive Affiliate and stay an Executive Affiliate.

? And here are the "make it or fail it" deal: I must motivate, coach, assist and support my team members to also become Executive Affiliates and to do what I am doing.


Never let all the smaller overwhelming detail about SFI, makes you loose focus of this bottom-line-role of yours, in our company.

I reviewed the first information that SFI is presenting to new affiliates and I found out that it is designed to keep the new affiliates get started and continue to log-in daily, hoping that you will find your way as you go along. But in most cases you will find yourself overwhelmed with information that you will loss sight of what is important.

There should be a time where we should be able to simplify things about SFI to get out of that overwhelmed stage. The earlier you get out of it the better, and you must communicate the same to your team members.

You need a solid framework where you can connect all the information you read and all the activities that you do. The best frame work to follow is the Compensation Plan. In other words, you follow where the money is and connect all information and your activities on it.

Trace how to get that money.

Example: The biggest money is coming from direct commission which is 45% of the commission value. You start tracing this, by asking series of questions. How do you get Direct commission? Answer: from the purchase of your PSA, CSA and PRM.

Next question. How to get PSA? Asnwer: PSA are my recruits who become member of SFI. Therefore my main job is to recruit PSA's. Follow-up question, how will I recruit PSA? Then you start reading how to sponsor an affiliate.

Next Question. How to get CSA? answer: CSA are awarded to me by SFI and they are won from Price benders. Follow-up question are: what are my qualification to be awarded with CSA and How does this bidding work? and how to win?

Next question How to get PRM? Answer: selling products to someone not memebr od SFI. Follow-up question would be, what are the products that I can sell, and where do i find buyers?

Then you can think of strategies by asking more questions like; among the three which one will give me more profit and which one is easier to find?

You can do the same on the other streams of income. If you are clear with your framework your will get out of being overwhelmed because you are now in control of what you will do. Not only that, you also have sense of direction, a plan, a strategy in which all your activity and gathering of information are anchored. These will greatly propel your success in SFI.

When I got into SFI, I looked into what is the most important part. I felt scoring VPs are the important part. In the first month for 15 days I was only collecting my day VP, playing win it and TTime, Along with these I was reading the launch pad and marketing articles

After 15 days I was concentrating on other actionable points to be scored. Within a week I completed all the actionable points other than daily, weekly, SO and rating.
Next month I felt getting members below me is very important to run the show.

It will not be possible to move further in rank without the team. So I started building the team using the easiest way. The PTC sites. Then further I moved to place in classifieds, participating in forums and creating a blog.

Now I am in the 4th month. I have subscribed for the IAHBE to move further. I never felt overwhelmed till now and I am passing this message to all my PSAs and CSAs
I insist on them doing the WinIt and TTime.

My sponsors are one of the reasons I am being motivated. They rewarded me for my work.

So don’t push too much on your PSA’s and CSA’s. If they are serious they are going to get involved and work for their business. You just show them where they fell issues and please do follow them when they go wrong through their VP ledger.

When an affiliate joins SFI and is ushered to the SFI website, he (or she) is usually quite confused. What to read, what not to read, where do I begin so I can start earning, how will I ever get all this information into my head, there is too much to learn - I can't do it etc. etc. are common thoughts that overwhelm all of us. It happened to me when I joined and I am certain you experienced the same thing. But, the thing is that we kept calm, took the learning gradually step by step, kept on reading a little every day - news, forum discussions, important topics, training lessons, glossary for explanations, marketing methods, advertising methods and other innumerable resources SFI has provided for all affiliates to learn, use and benefit from.

You have to present your own experiences and how you reached where you are today, as the model (not ideal) for your team. You and your team need not race ahead but just remember "slow and steady winds the race". Slow but consistent and seriously committed to success in the long run is what your motto should be. This way you can say 'goodbye stress - welcome success.'

Any person who joins SFI, with an intention to earn big money, gets carried away with the process initially. Its the duty of Sponsor and Co-Sponsor to make them understand the SFI program.

We will have to make ourselves as well as our downline understand that VPs are not the whole and sole way to earn money. One man cannot make loads of money by VPs alone. This is what we have to make our downline understand.

So in short, we have to understand what SFI is all about and then inculcate the same into our PSAs and CSAs.

Very good question.

Generally maximum number of people join in this business but do not know what to do next.

SFI always try to overwhelm his system,

At first it is only 4 step basic plan & 30 launchpad but after overwhelm

SFI provide us with such a powerful and comprehensive marketing system.
It's all ready for us to plug in and go! But many new affiliates get overwhelmed, so SFI created this video to SIMPLIFY and make it so we can jump in and get started quickly and easy.

AND DON'T FORGET...

The most important thing to do is log in at the Affiliate Center every day and review the tabs on your homepage. Review the tabs daily,weekly & monthly plan apply what we learn and we will quickly master SFI. At the same time, we'll be accumulating valuable rank- and income-boosting VersaPoints!

Another overwhelm on Genealogy also.

I was not best understood the question, but if I understood well I think it boils down to 3 steps:

# 1.- Become an Executive Affiliate (EA) and remain an EA every month

- Transfer Buying

The fastest, easiest way to go EA. Just purchase the same trusted products that you normally get from other sources from TripleClicks.com instead—transferring your regular purchases to YOUR store. These everyday items could easily accrue 1,500 VP or more for you, thereby earning you EA status essentially for FREE! Choose this method if you wish to become an EA immediately.

- Websites sales

A simple, straightforward method for becoming EA: earn 1,500 VP in sales from your TripleClicks Website. Just refer customers to your online store, and you can earn EA status with as little as one sale! This method normally takes at least 45-60 days to produce the VersaPoints necessary to earn EA status.

- Action Versapoints

This method allows you to earn EA status by team building and performing other important business-building actions.

The 1,500 VP required for EA status can come from any COMBINATION of purchases, sales, and actions. For example, a personal purchase worth 500 VP, plus a customer* sale worth 500 VP, plus 500 VP via actions would combine to equal 1,500 VP and earn you EA status for the month.

# 2.- Recruit five affiliates using the methods listed

- Tell your friends and family to sign up as SFI affiliates

- Add your "signature" to your e-mail. Most modern e-mail browsers allow you to set up a "signature" that gets automatically appended to every e-mail you send out.

- Send SFI E-Cards to friends and family members.

- Give out SFI X-Card to friends, family members, co-workers, associates, etc.

- Put SFI X-Card in every outgoing piece of mail you send out (like electric bills, water bills, NetFlix/Blockbuster DVD returns, etc.).

- Leave SFI X-Card with your bill/tip each time you dine out at a restaurant

- Whenever you take a taxi or ride public transportation, "forget" SFI X-Card on the seat before you exit.

- Post flyers on public bulletin boards in your area grocery stores, fitness centers and gyms, college student unions, Laundromats, and anywhere else that has boards for public postings.

- If you work in a large office where a conversation about a sideline home business won't get you in trouble, consider an SFI Mousepad for your desk and/or a coffee mug from the SFI "Shirts & More" Store. When your co-workers ask you about SFI, hand them SFI X-Card

- Do you regularly walk your dog in parks or other places where there are lots of people? If so, get an SFI dog-shirt. Because it's unusual to see a dog wearing garments, people will ask you about the shirt. When they do so, hand them SFI X-Card.

- Insert SFI X-Card in books about entrepreneurialism, starting your own business, etc. at your local bookstore(s). When the book is purchased or browsed, your card will be found by someone who will likely be interested in the SFI business opportunity.

- Send SFI postcard or one of flyers to a mailing list of opportunity seekers. To find quality mailing lists, try searching Google.com for "mailing lists opportunity seekers."

- Distribute flyers

Encourage your team members to follow the basics of SFI so that they do not get overwhelmed by all the information. Give them and yourself time to absorb the training. Everyone is different. I encourage my team members to learn at a pace that suits them. I believe that it is more important to have a good solid understanding of SFI and therefore build a good solid foundation for you and your team rather than rushing the process.
