Has anyone tried the paid Facebook advertising and, if so, did it work/was it was worth the cost?

Yes, I tried the facebook advertising. I received a free coupon for $50.00 and used that coupon. Before advertising on Facebook, I made a second business page so that those joining will see that page. The page I used was for Triple Clicks items. Ninety people joined this Facebook page, but none of them purchased from TC after joining the page.

Do you need to have your own website (if so, why) or are the Gateway websites provided by SFI adequate?

The Gateways are plenty adequate, but you have to advertise them. If you have your own website or blog, you have to advertise it too. Therefore your own website can cost you more money and time.

There are several blog sources on the web such as wordpress, blogger, and squidoo that you can set up and maintain that are free. The cost for these is extra time in setting up and maintaining them.

To save time and effort, you can use your weekly newsletter on your blog or website.

Any standing order for the month gives you 100 VP to start simply for having the order.

IAHBE is great for new people and to purchase every so often when you have time and desire to study and learn more. This is $29.00 for 1500VP.

Tcredits -100 pak is $29.00 for 1200 VP, and combined with Sbuilder for $22.00 and 280 VP, plus 1 Tcredits pak is $1.89 for 102 VP. This equals $52.80 for 1582 VP. Then you also get 101 VP when you use the VP at the auction.

I've learned that SFI is an ethical company that is making it possible for people without many resources make a difference in their life and possibly their country and eventually the world. I am a part of something that is not only thinking big, but is big in its heart, in its interest in people and in helping the world be a better place for everyone.

Beside making some money, I have made contact with so many people that I otherwise would not have had the opportunity to meet. I have found

What is your experience or your opinion about running contests (and providing prizes) to motivate your PSAs?

My sponsor runs contests for new PSA's every month, and I've won several. I have put up contests for advertising asking them to send me the name and date of where advertising. This was marginally successful even though I sent them a list of free places they could advertise in my newsletter that week. I ran it for a month, and I had substantial prizes. The first time I did this, I got some results, but when I ran it again, I didn't get any.

I have also had contests for ordering from TC,
