Ask them if SFI were a coffee shop would they be ready to pay the lease, pay the utilities, pay the staff, pay to advertise, buy the food to sell, get the menus printed or would they simply dream about owning a restaurant?

SFI is a real business, it has real products you sell to real people for real money and just like any other business it will require time and will require money before you see a reward. Don't use the terms work, or job, remember always this is a business, a strong future

First thing that I would suggest is to tell your affiliates up front as soon as they show an interest to join, or as soon as they are given to you, if they are not your personal recruits that this is not a quick rich scheme. Also state here that a lot of quick rich schemes are scams.

Mention words like residual income, retirement income, long term income so that they will realize that it is not quick and easy.

Then go on to show them that this is their business and that like

This is great question. Here is what I do:

1. Promote carefully. It is very important to make our advertisement look great and attractive but you should never lie to people. I always try to mention in my ads that this is real business. I use phrases such as - no fake promises, no "rich over night", no easy money, no earning without working hard and so on.

2. Act seriously. It is very important to leave impression that you are serious. When you are communicating with

The INTRODUCTION to SFI is a very important aspect of your SFI business.

The one mistake that probably a lot of individuals who are introducing an Affiliate into the business do is that they enrol and then start the induction process. All the aspects of the business must be explained clearly before signing them up. When this is done effectively, some of the questions (negatively put) will not arise.

This means you have to have a clear understanding yourself to be able to pass

Hello Ester,

To answer your question, paraphrasing it in this way, "Getting your downline to take their SFI business seriously, and not expect success to come overnight!" Ester, I have found that there is but one way:

Through my own experiences Ester, they themselves must feel it!

The old saying "You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink" totally applies here. Those who join SFI join with a preconceived notion. The ones who joins

Every affliates has his or her own motive for joining this business.
I joined SFI looking for a get rich quick scheme,at first i was discourage because it was abit confusing.A month after i gave it a thought and was left with an answer, 'If i had work with Sfi all this while am running around from site to site i would have achieved something useful'.
Another thing that triggered me is the motivational messages from my sponsor,all those while i didnt login he never gave up on me.He was

Hello and thanks for forwarding this serious question.

I call it serious cos it is. So many people not just affiliate are looking for quick way to success; which its not right according to the Bible.

You have to help them realise themselves didn't just start walking as they were giving birth to. Everything in life has it own time; time to sow and time to reap.

Hey you may be playing with sure fire if all you want is to think you can start earning big without hardwork

I'm not sure if there's any way to pursuade someone from the "instant gratification generation". They either do or they don't.

I believe in natural consequences. When someone tells you from experience that you will get hurt if you do what they did, and you don't listen, nature has a way of giving you the consequences. And nature is a very good teacher.

Until you've been burned, the heat doesn't mean anything to you. Telling someone that SFI isn't a get rich scheme

Good question. First of all you have to explain clearly the theme of SFI. What type of business is SFI. It's like any other business where you have to start with some items and increase it step by step. First your income will be very less and day by day it increases.

In SFI also you have to start as an AFF then EA2 then BTL onward. You need duplication to earn. Start duplication with 1 or 2 PSA. Then every month you increase your PSA. SFI will give you income from Gen by Gen.
