There are so many marketing aids that can be used by PSA's and it is a great help to new PSA's to provide some ideas about what may be used for their businesses.

First, ask your PSA's to see what they may have experience with or have interest in trying to set up such as marketing ideas.

The most important thing to remember is that in Marketing one size does not fit all. One approach may work well for you but may not for someone else so please take the time to consider the following:

I find this a hard question to answer. Each lesson is valuable.

But to answer the question, I find myself reviewing from time to time Launch Pad Lesson 28 - "SFI Rules of Success"

This lesson offers an introduction to the Rules of Success as authored by Gery. This lesson truly has helped me each month to focus on the important work which leads to success. Rules of Success provides a way for each affiliate to keep motivated.

Lesson 28 is a way to bullet proof

The Fast-Track lapel pin is another marketing tool that you may use.

It is professional in design so may be worn on business suits or even your dress coat or outfit for the day. I personally have it on my satchel (bag) strap so it is with me everywhere I go and have it positioned so that others will always see it - in line at the store or when face to face with others.

The pin is solely distributed by SFI so it is a one of a kind in your community so may be used to attract people

It may be a good idea to consider the different ways there are to explain how building a business from the bottom up is a process not a project.

Projects are usually considered to be a short term activity which is then completed then that is all there is to do. This then gives the impression that there is never anything else to do as the "project" is completed.

The SFI business is a process - it is a long range planning experience. SFI is built on the accumulation

Posting to advertise can be done anywhere as long as there is approval for such postings.

Public places that have bulletin boards are a good start such as but not limited to bus terminals, universities, job posting boards, grocery stores, and even community halls. Cafeterias are good too. There are at times bulletin boards at public service spots such as swimming pools or even gyms.

Be sure to consider what you are planning to advertise at each of your posting spots so as to

What long-term goal(s) should an affiliate be setting for themselves?

First thing is to understand the intention of the affiliate for joining SFI in the first place. The intention will provide you the basic framework for the development of a long-term goal.

As a team leader, it is important to remind fellow affiliates that long-term goals are simply a goal to be achieved not today or tomorrow but to be achieved through the use of sustainable strategies that can be used over several months or even years.

Long term goals simply are a strategic target

Is it a good idea to reassign your PSAs to someone in their own country?

SFI is based on connections with people and having down line team members together in the same country provides direct team support. If you are in a position to reassign PSA's to someone in heir own country then connections will most likely be strong and team work will more than likely be strong too.

Being in the same country enables team members to share ideas meanwhile fully understand each other as they will have the same language, similar experiences that are in that country, and a

Contacting PSA's is an important part of a sponsor's/leader's role. Connection is a key element for our business which is about people and guiding people.

Communication is the foundation to how we guide and mentor others. Using the PSA Mailer AND their personal e-mail address are both effective means to connect with your PSA team members.

The PSA mailer is a great time saver. The PSA mailer is a great service that SFI offers to all sponsors to communicate with all your PSA

It would be best to review the questions that are open to posting answers and consider which ones you are able to answer due to personal experience or knowledge on the subject.

Respond to all the questions as this will increase your chances to receive VP's.

Check on a regular basis to see what question are new so you may add your responses on a regular basis.

Practice is also important - the more you provide/post responses to questions the better your skills will

Answers are available so with that it can be overwhelming.

I suggest to connect with 3-5 fellow affiliates who you find easy to understand that can help guide your knowledge seeking experience with SFI.

You can do your search for answers on your own by using SFI Forum, A2A, Tips tab, Stream tab, Launch Pad Lessons, Training menu choice, and so forth. As you can see there is much and so I think it is key to connect with other affiliates locally or on-line that you understand
