Good question and I am glad you asked. The answers are plain and simple:

- Unfortunately, most people believe in "Quick Rich Schemes" and
believe me, if they existed then surely all of us would have been Millionares or
Billionares by now;

- If they see it requires work and effort then they become reluctant as
majority of people expect money to fall into their lapse;

- Most of them become overwhelmed with all the reading and they

This is a great question, I think the main reason people do not work towards advancing in SFI is that when the affiliate gets signed up through either the join here or by a personally sponsored affiliate they think that it is a get rich fast type of business.

We all know that it is not. They also may not have the money to purchase anything to advance to the next level. Some affiliates get so overwhelmed and stay at the spot they are at. We all even have people that do not do anything

If you are referring to sign-up's that subsequently achieve no or very little VP or never sign in again after the joining date, i believe there are two main reasons:

1. To have a more involved look at how SFI works someone must sign up, obviously there will be a number of people who after having looked will decide it is not for them;

2. Some people will give up when they realize they actually do have to do something in order to earn money from SFI.

I wouldn't be concerned

There is a significant learning curve with SFI; you should do lots of reading from what is available to understand what SFI is all about. Most people today are so motivated by instant gratification, that pursuing something like SFI that takes time is just not for them.

SFI has to be recognized as building your own online business, and a lot of affiliates who join up don't realize that. When they do, they quit because they don't want to work that hard.

Results take time in any

More people don’t work towards advancing in SFI after a month or few months because of certain reasons.

First are their expectations.
They expecting that they can earn immediately a big amount of money in an easy way and with their thoughts that it is all FREE and they cannot spend any single dollar.

Second are their values.
Most of these affiliates don’t apply their positive traits in dealing SFI business. Impatient, pessimist, no time, and unfocused

It can be a good thing ... it can be bad.

It really depends on how one look at it. Not everybody is cut out to be business owners, but all of us are at one point and more than once customers.

Instead of feeling bad that not all trying to advance in SFI, let us try to build them into customers who enjoy the benefit of the discounts available to them. Also work hard to keep them as happy customers who meet up with others. If they are happy to be customers, they will be happy

Hello,

I think that it has to do with the expectations of people who are joining our program. There are couple of types of these people:

- Those who think that they are going to find a fortune over night

- Those who have the mindset of the "employee" (expects to take no responsibility and no risks)

- Those who do not have time (read: do not like to read) for "this kind of business"

- Those who have joined several money making

This is a very good question that the SFI team needs to conduct survey and look for an alternative way for those who do not really have cards to start with online buying. Although it is free to have paypal and free to enroll with SFI, most of the enrollees who in fact are expecting to have good income with SFI may in turn dismayed upon discovering that they really need card to get on the perks offered by SFI.

Some are just not really readers, they just want to try and leave all with the

When the people join SFI they think that they will the Big money on the first 1-3 months and aren't so clear about what exactly is SFI working business model. Often they misunderstood with PPC sites or PTC. Their attention is drawn but some promises about income. They think it's for sure one and they don't have to work too much. When the people don't see results in their first 3 months, they just disappear and when they understand they have to pay or promote too much /and that means working time/

This is a good question, Redonna but I feel it cannot be answered simply. Every one has different reasons for not progressing in a business like this. My advice to you would be to try and find out from your PSAs what it is they want from SFI and work out between you how to best go about achieving that goal.

Once you've established what has been hindering the progress of your individual team members, you can maybe set them tasks to perform to help them to see how they can truly benefit
