I believe paid advertising is best. There are many different options out there, but the main benefit I have seen is being able to target your advertising to try and attract those individuals who are willing to spend money.
Paid advertising also frees up your time to do other things, like communicating with your downline more often on a personal level, so that you can teach them the same things you are doing.
If you can afford it, paid advertising is the way to go.
There are so many free places to advertise, and in my opinion it is much better to use free advertising. With free advertising does not spend money that you can use to purchase the TripleClicks. Free places to advertise are various groups on FB, forums ... You're just a Google searc free advertising and you will find a lot of places.
Paid advertising does not guarantee you more success than free, so my advice is definitely free advertising, a lot of success.
Paid is more effective (if we are going to define effective as the fastest way!). Free methods are far more time-intensive and results can be slow. With paid methods they are fast to work and easy to monitor. Also, paid methods dont take up as much of your time to implement.
A mixture of both is good but Id recommend paid methods to get the ball rolling!
I like to use free advertising -because it's free! I don't have extra money to spend for paid advertising, so really don't know how paid advertising works! As to free advertising , it works , but slowly ... And you have to spend a lot of hours advertising ... I joined Sfi 2 months ago and only got 1 signup from free advertising! I am also planning to do a party at our apartment complex clubhouse and invite over 200 people and introduce them to Sfi , TC... Hope this helps to get more singups... Hope I could help and have a nice day:-)

I think we may be asking the wrong question. In my opinion, the most effective marketing is target marketing. Target marketing is designing your ad to a specific group or niche. For example,the best way to advertise the SFI opportunity would be to advertise to those seeking home based businesses. Another example, if you wanted to advertise ECA, target your message to business owners. You can target your advertising message in either paid or free advertising forums. It might be a bit easier to target your advertising message in paid advertising but you can reach your target audience in free advertising as well.

The concept of paid or free advertising really doesn't need to be compared. If both advertising's bring you new affiliates or if sales is the case, then that means the only differents is that your paying for one. Where we advertise also has a big impact on our business, only because you wouldn't put a brand new store in the middle of the desert and expect a single person to come in, or for that fact purchase a product. For example: Look at Walmart, they center their stores in strategic locations, pretty much where the traffic is, the people. Have a great month!

Sometimes in business you need to take some risk, so when you pay for advertising the risk is possible waste of money , however it could be the most successful for you.
Your question tends to make me want to say, try both and see what happens.
At the beginning, you, usually, dont have any available funds to invest in your business (or you just exploring this possibility).
So, free adds is great option.
Paid adds, usually aim "target audience". So they are better... But, first you must learn terminology... Until You learn such stuff, stick to free adds. When you become ready to make your first paid add, You can have a great network of affiliates, so that you do not have a need for paid adds. :)
I'm learning about internet marketing, putting some free adds, and using S-Builder as a paid variant.

This days with internet as the main source of business opportunity it makes no difference between paid or free advertising caused the important thing is to reach people out there and make them active in SFI business entrepreneur.
The most important is to boost or market your ads using your own gateway in whatever source,conventional or internet. Your ads must be very short,brief,straight to the point and very presentable.
