In my own opinion,if one's sponsor does not respond,i strongly believe that one should continue with his/her goal to achieve financial freedom.

I had a similar experience as my sponsor was not supportive and to be honest,i almost gave up. It was indeed my co-sponsor who helped out and i am here today as we speak. He taught me the basis, told me the difference between t-credits and t-currency as well as how to pay for items on tripleclicks via local pay merchants. I was determined and didnt

You need to have a sponsor to sign up, that’s true. Once you signed up,
you also become a sponsor of other Affiliates whom you sponsor. This is the process.
If your sponsor is inactive I am sure there is nothing that we loose or there is any need for worries. SFI Affiliate Center has provided to its Affiliates a great deal of training materials, power tools,to train themselves if they have the desire, commitment and a dream to become successful.In my own experience, I did not receive

A sponsor is a real person, and an affiliate has to understand that, if he/she is non-responsive, something may have happened to him/her. There is the section "My Upline Support Team" to refer to in case the sponsor cannot be contacted.

In any case, if the sponsor is non-responsive, an affiliate should do the following:

1. Visit SFI regularly and complete to-do list;
2. Go to SFI LAUNCHPAD and revise marketing lessons on a regular basis;
3. Check VP ledger

Perhaps there are some reasons why some sponsors are not responsive to their affiliates: one is, may be they are of diffirent nationality and your assigned sponsor cannot speak English well to explain what your asking, and secondly, because he/she is already successful in this field he don't have time for such new member, because I experienced it personally upon seeing his SFI homepage with almost all the badges.

The best thing is refer to your Co Sponsor and some of your Upline, not all

My personal experience with this was at first my sponsor either did not send me any messages or truth be told I may have ignored them. What got me going was a letter from my co-sponsor and then another from an upline member. These sparked my interest and got me working.

I then sent a personal message to my sponsor and she replied to me, the fact that she is in the same country as I am, so I get a reply when I am online started conversations with her and now whenever I need something I

I understand you because I have the exact same problem so I emailed support here on SFI and they gave me two choices, one is to email my sponsor and ask to be reassigned to another sponsor, that means you have to give the affiliate id number to the person you want for a sponsor. The second choice that Gery does not recommend is to opt out of SFI, or cancel your membership and then wait six months before you register again under a new sponsor.

I understand how frustrating it can be, because my sponsor totally ignored me after I signed up. I didn't even look at the program until the 26th day! Still, after reading the materials, I was able too make EA in just four days.

Everything is straight-forward and laid out so well, that it is not hard to grasp. Also, I have used the Support folks, forum and A2A friends extensively. If you want a long-term solution to financial freedom, (despite what the government or Wall Street does),
