For me it was when I finally decided to start setting up a 1500 VP standing order at the beginning of every month. Once I did that I was able to focus on sponsoring new affiliates and less on frantically trying to earn VP.

My second month after setting up my 1500 VP SO, I became a Bronze Team Leader and have been one ever since. And now I get a $10 bonus every month on top of all the other Team Leader benefits.

So I would tell anyone who is skeptical about setting up a Standing

Success with SFI really started coming after I was able to get my new affiliates to realize that I am a real person that wants to talk to them, and help them with their problems. After I was able to finally make that first real contact with them,(they reply to a message and we actually start a dialogue, not just me sending them message after message) success really started to follow. They realized that I am just like them, and that even though I am a sponsor, I still have issues now and then as

Wow...this question I will follow through to see all the answers.

There is just one answer: HONESTY!

I am lucky to have a good Sponsor and Co- Sponsor from the beginning....both of them from other countries. They do not understand African challenges, but they do understand the one word that is "key to any business": HONESTY!!!!

People, be straight with your Affiliates from the first day. SFI is not a scheme that will make money overnight. Do not place

The key of success in this business, as we all know, is duplication.
And what is the key of duplication? I would like to be able to say: “the
sponsor (you) is the key. He has the magic formula to transform lazy, hesitant or unmotivated people into achievers and winners.” But of course it doesn’t work like that. Unfortunately my personal experience convinced me that the real magic formula each sponsor (you and me included) has, is another one: “have faith, follow the path never give

Without a doubt the ONE THING that has made the difference for us is the recognition you get for your efforts. There are badges for the tasks you complete, levels of achievement with compensation or higher earnings, and the awesome feeling you get from seeing others reach their goals, learn new skills, and achieve more than they every thought they could.

Additionally, we would include the great people you meet through a2a, training materials that focus on the basics and leadership, a

Full commitment was the prime mover which made the difference for me in succeeding with SFI. With full commitment I believe half the battle is won. Commitment branches out to other aspects which makes SFI business successful.

Some of these branches include goal setting, knowledge of the SFI business, setting priorities to achieve your SFI goals, sponsoring, advertising, sales, training, imparting knowledge to your downline and finally duplication.

With commitment, these branches

Everyone has his own strategy to success in SFI and certainly, everyone has his own way. Usually, It is a secret but sharing knowledge and experience always beneficial.

1. Patience and Consistency are the real keys to my success.

2. Another key skill to success is avoiding the negative thoughts. It is very important for me as many times I face people who just say negative things about online marketing.

3. Always keep yourself in a positive environment and be optimistic.

4.

Thank you Ryan for this wonderful question.
The ONE THING that has made the difference for me is my “Written Self Commitment Note” to my SFI business. When I join SFI, I wrote a personal commitment note for myself that I was going to stay with SFI, learn, build my business and that I will NEVER GIVE UP no matter what happens.
This little action has kept me for 11 months now and made me remain focused and determined. This has also help me to influence and build a stronger team as I always

So far the answers I have read, give a number of things that have made the writer successful. I believe that the ONE thing that has made the difference for me is a2a.
I was ready to give up a long time ago, but was encouraged by a special a2a friend.
I have also been given great advice from successful a2a friends, and a lot of encouragement from these friends.

As neither my sponsor nor co-sponsor ever write, the connection with a2a friends is the thing that has kept me going

The ONE THING that makes a difference for my SFI Success is the success and advice of others, especially members of my team and other's teams.

I learn so much from other members, too. The most important thing is to never quit. Long term success is much greater than short term success.

I learn the most from members that have been active members of SFI, TripleClicks, Wave3, A2A members, ECA Store Members, and other memberships throughout SFI and TripleClicks.
