The easy answer is to remind your 'eligible' team members that they can do this each month and earn 10 VP. I simply remind my 'eligible' team members and identify that the ratings and comments assist me in determining how well i am doing as their team leader and if there is anything i could be doing better. I said 'eligible' as only those who have been with SFI for two months or more can perform a sponsor rating.

I don't think you need to "get" your PSA to submit a sponsor's rating and comment, let me explain:

For you to be able to submit a rating, you have to be at least 2months old in SFI. That said, if you have been doing what you need to do to grow your business, then at this point you will have a pretty good idea of how SFI works, and will be familiar with your home page (that's where you see the alert to give a rating).

This rating gives 10VPs, now any hardworking SFIite knows that VersaPoints are like Golddust, and 1VP means alot, talk less of 10! So from this angle, I won't need to be reminded.

As a Sponsor, if you do what needs to be done, you won't have to get you PSAs to submit a rating. I agree this is a business and we are all business associates, but I believe in creating warm relationships even in business. Make you PSAs your friends, treat them like family, be there for them, let them know you care, "people don't want to know how much you know, until they know how much you care", don't send mechanical mails and news letters, everyone responds to warmth. If i get treated like this, I will give a 10 rating if possible.

(This is by the way, I was on the Forum and I kept on running into this Teamleader who I could tell from the way she sounded that she treated her downline like family, I sent her an A2A request immediately because I want to learn to be that way....)

On the other hand, while keeping your eyes on their VPs ledger, if you notice a rating has not been submitted, and the 2nd week has gone by, then I think a gentle reminder in your stream post will suffice.

Post reminders in team mail or stream. Inform your down line of the importance of the rating to you as a way of personal growth and welcome their comments. Tell them that their opinion really does count. Remind them too that the rating earns them 10 vps. That's really about all you can/should do. thanks

Let’s face it, as a Sponsor, we like to have good ratings from our PSAs. The Rate is vital in maintaining our Leadership Status. It is our measure on how we are doing as a leader or as a sponsor. However, we can’t ask PSAs to submit a sponsor’s rating.

The best way to get our PSAs to submit a sponsors rating is to support them in understanding the SFI Business through 1) recognition for a job well done 2) set up a contest that can encourage them to continue 3) support and always assure them that you are available and willing to help them succeed. We can't force them to do what they do not want to do, but we can always be available for them when they need us.

Hello,

You can always remind your PSAs via TeamMail or Stream. How are they going to rate you is entirely up to them. If you are good sponsor, if you are "working with the workers" then the rating is going to be just fine.

One more thing: do not force your PSAs to give you a good rating, ratings must be deserved.

Enjoy!

 I guess that if you have been constantly in touch or in contact and have in the process build up some rapport or relationship via the various available avenues be it  through Group Mailers or SFIMG or emails etc then there is no need for you to push it

Otherwise what I would do is to write them a short message via any of the available channels and offer some tips as well as some support and lastly round it up with a reminder to solicit for their feedback on what I could do better in terms of supporting  them and for further improvement bearing in mind that this is only applicable to affiliates  who are at least in their second month with SFI and have them submit the rating so that besides earning 10 VPs they also can help to rate and offer feedback for it
All the best

Ratings from inactive PSAs:
Its really not in our hands... We cant expect ratings from those who haven't even opened their home page..Sending team mails and personal mails are he only ting that we could do..

Ratings from active PSAs:
These people will give a 5 star rating if you support them well enough and give some great advises..Also when you re-assign some affiliates and t-credits to them, they will have the feeling that we are watching them and caring about them..And of course nothing beats gift certificates.. If you could give them gift certificates every month or once in 2-3 months i bet you will get a 5 star rating from them..

Be a good sponsor... All the best ..Thank you..

You should always make a good contact with your PSAs. You should never leave them alone and always encourage, help and support them. If you do so you can observe that your PSAs are developing becoming active and at the next month you will look that your PSAs have given you a 100 percent sponsor rating and will give you a very good comment from your sponsor.
There are again many ways, for example:
You should always make a good relationship with your sponsor.
You can meet or contact them and encourage them.
You should never say any bad things to them.
You should always discuss everything.
This all will give you a good sponsoring rate.

I wouldn't like to sound negative, but in my honest opinion there is no such way and I am very aware of the fact that many will oppose my opinion here, but please read on, everybody.

In order to understand why people in your donwline hardly respond to any communication you send them and why don't they rate you or interact with you in any other way for that matter, you have to understand why people are here. And the simple truth is that people are here(excuse my caps) TO MAKE MONEY, not to socialize with anybody. SFI is not facebook or twitter. The fact that someone reacted to your ad, clicked that link and joined does not mean that they will be communicating with you.

Secondly, you send those people tips, advice, recommend BUYING things, and this easily turns people off. Why? Because they don't trust you. Why? Because they have been (most often) scammed many times by now, they have been spoiled by FREE/No effort and similar slogans, and once they see SFI does require work - they quit. The system does not delete them from your downline at once and you think you have a huge downline, but there may be no one to rate you, sorry.

Thirdly, as I have written above, too, people are not here to socialize or interact with you or the system. They just want their money and if they can't see the money, they quit, again.

Now, let me ask you a question: Have you ever received any reply to the mailings you send to the people? I'd be very surprised if you had. Even if you end each of your letters with invitation to contact you. And the same people who do not respond to your mailings are the ones who should rate your performance. Do you think they will?

Now slightly off-topic:
Just go to your "Genealogy" and select Sort by "VersaPoints (this month), dsc, and see how many people accumulated any VP this month. How does that relate to your whole downline? Again, you are looking at people who are supposed to rate your performance...

Finally: It is not how other people rate you (or not) and comment on your performance (or not) that matters. What REALLY matters is that you know you're doing your best here. And if you do, you don't need any ratings.

One of the ways that may encourage your PSA's to respond to you and also give you a rating, is to use Google Translate if they are from different countries. It shows the person that you are willing to go that little extra mile to communicate and help.
I always encourage my PSA's and CSA's to learn something new daily about SFI and TripleClicks. I tell them that this is THEIR business, and to run a successful business one must have the knowledge it takes to make it successful. Always let them know that it's ok to ask for help and guidance.
Encourage them to read articles online about what it takes to succeed in this business. When a CSA or PSA reaches a milestone, send a gift certificate to show your congratulations, it works wonders to show that you see how hard they are working.
