The best way to build momentum about TripleClicks is to tell stories about the items you have bought there and how they have influenced, helped or brought enjoyment into your life. Put pictures of items you would like to purchase and write a story about why. Find items that you are able to use in transfer buying and talk about them. Bundle items together that will make a great presentation, so that they not only see that you are transfer buying but will know how this has been of value to you and your SFI business.

True team spirit comes from interacting with each other in as many ways as possible. SFI is set up so that we are all separate groups, and within our group are several other groups. The rule of 3 or 5 duplication. We mentor 3-5 people in our first line. This means that we have several people building their own groups and teaching these people to build individual groups. This makes building true team spirit difficult, but here are some suggestions for making it work.

1. When sending weekly messages include your whole genealogy and praise those at the top of each group regardless of rank or level in your downline.
2. Take advantage of every stream message opportunity to praise individuals regardless of their sponsor.
3. Set up interactive webinars or conferences whenever possible and invite your entire genealogy to enter.
4. When someone needs help ask those across group lines to help. For instance, you have several across all groups with the same language. Have these people all join A2A so that they can connect with each other and thus help with possible language problems.
5. Always consider your downline as one entity even though it may be built up of several different and diverse groups.
6. Set group goals and group activities such as contests and games on your Leadership page.
7. Everything you do must be built on developing true team spirit through cooperation and communication. Therefore, you must promote this however you can. Never criticize anyone or complain. If someone needs some feedback you should always do this individually. Never go over or under any member of your group. If you are contacting a sponsor's downline, be sure and let the sponsor know first and then send them a copy of your message so they are informed.
8. When speaking to individual members of a group, praise and uplift them and their group every way you can. Never criticize a downline member to anyone, write to the member them about your concerns.
9. Send out periodic surveys to your entire group in your weekly newsletters asking them questions that help you to know how your groups are progressing and working as a team.
10. Always accept personal feedback with an open mind and don't get on the offensive and be personally offended when someone suggests something or gives you a less than perfect rating, write them and ask how you can improve. Ask your entire genealogy this question at least once a month so that the entire group knows you are responsive to them.

Since your Tconnect page is your personal items or things you have for sale, the best place to put advertisements would be in local situations. For instance:

1. Craigs list for your area
2. Local newspapers
3. Signs on your automobile
4. Posters in grocery stores and elsewhere.
5. Any local connection like Facebook and Twitter where your friends are

When you are advertising for your products on your Tconnect page, you will also be advertising for your business. Wouldn't it be nice to have a following in your own area with people who know your culture and understand your language? Tconnect page is a great tool for that.

Your Tconnect page is an awesome tool for building your business both with PRM's and new PSA's no matter how are where you advertise.

Making a presentation is a great opportunity and requires thinking about the group you will be speaking with and what the goals of the group are. Then you can make a power point presentation that will fit into those goals.

Making a power point doesn't have to be something that you can put on a screen,but it can be a number of posters. Then I would take the items from SFI that might appeal to this group. For instance if they are a non profit that could benefit from TC sales every month, I would highlight TripleClicks and how to use it in one power point.

If they were young people just starting out in the working world, I'd emphasize sponsoring and how for 15 minutes a day, they can learn how to make money on the internet while earning and even though the income is small it will grow as they grow and learn. This is a good thing to have to fall back on if their job doesn't work out for them.

If they are older people and looking for an outlet to the world, SFI is wonderful for that. You can develop friends from around the world, and practically travel there by working in SFI. Every time I receive a new person from outside of my own personal world, I google that country and study about it so that I'm more comfortable talking to that person through emails. It doesn't take long working SFI to realize that everyone is more like me and my family and friends than they are different. The goals are the same, and we all have challenges no matter where we live that need to be jumped over before we can succeed.

The best way to be effective is to gear your content to their interests whatever they are and SFI is a great vehicle for that because there are so many ways you can benefit from being a member.

SFI's advice is that you can help too much if you are sending them money or gift certificates. Personally I don't think you can help too much if you do it wisely and set aside what you can afford and don't go beyond that number. By afford, I mean both time and money. Here are some beneficial ways you can help.

1. Start by writing them messages and being willing to answer any questions or concerns. If they respond, then I'm more apt to help them.
2. Check their ledgers about once a week or more often if needed and let them know where they can improve. Frequent E-card tips are great.
3. Set up easily won contests on your leadership page that they can participate in to earn gift certificates or other SFI items.
4. Send frequent E-cards validating their wins and milestones.
5. If you see them getting below the green line, and they are working the system, send them a $2.00 gift card. This will usually bring them over the green line.
6. $2.00 gift certificates go a long way if you instruct your members to use them for 1 Tcredit purchase. This gives them 104 VP which often can make the difference between being an EA or not.
7. So many of our members are financially challenged and don't have the resources to spend in SFI. Offer to send them something in return for doing something that helps you. For instance offer to purchase 1/2 of the New Member packet if they make the fast track. Offer a reward If they transfer buy three items.
8. Sometimes one of my members has a problem making their rank and they ask for extra help. If I can see that they have done everything they possibly could and still haven't made it, I will suggest something I think would help and if they complete that task and I have the resources I will help them with a gift certificate.
9. I have been fortunate in that the people I have helped have been responsive and done what I asked. In fact, I usually calculate what they have helped me earn to see what I can afford to help them with.
10. One help that we can all do is to set up a S-builder coop for our members and put them in the loop. This is inexpensive help and if they don't do anything you will get the members if they quit. You can work with level two and below as well as with your PSA's. If their sponsor is active, I contact them and ask if they mind if I help their members in their name. This has helped me and them maintain deeper groups.

I hope these suggestions are a helpful guide to your thinking about helping members.

Free standing Kiosks are expensive no matter where you use them. The first consideration is how can I make the Kiosk pay for itself. These are my suggestions:

1. Be sure that you have a physical product you are selling to recoup your financial obligation for the kiosk rental. This could be a number of TCECA or TC Direct products that could be used as samples of what TC sells.These would be purchased from the kiosk. If you have an ECA store be sure that you have a quantity of items to sell from this store.

2.Have several computers or tablets where people could access TripleClicks ECA stores so that they could browse and purchase directly while at the kiosk. There are so many pictures of items in TC, that you could have printed out and use to decorate the Kiosk to attract potential members.

3. Make up an Ebook explaining how to set up and profit from a TCECA store, that you could distribute to potential members. Also have one for SFI as a profitable online business.

4.Have plenty of business cards, Xcards, ECA postcards and other advertising items available though SFI Direct for them to pick up and take home.

5. Set up your Kiosk with an international theme, and use pictures from TC showing unique products from different countries.

6. Invite all of the SFI members in your area to participate. This can be cost sharing as well as contributing time. You could set up a schedule so that you weren't overwhelmed with the amount of time you had to be with the Kiosk. In order to make it pay, someone has to be there the full time the venue is open.

7.Getting and using a kiosk isn't something that you do lightly. You have to plan carefully to make it successful. Research the best way, by talking to Kiosk owners at the venue you plan to promote SFI. Find out what has worked for them, and what they have tried that wasn't successful. Make sure you have products and personnel coverage.

8.You could then schedule children's dance classes, choirs, and other entertainers to certain times of the day. These activities will bring in parents, grandparents and other family members so that you were sure to have a crowd at your kiosk.

9. Have a product from TC that you are demonstrating. This can be something involving food so that you have some samples to give out, or an electronic product that requires demonstrating for it to sell well.

10. Use SFI gift cards as a freebie that you are giving to everyone who makes an inquiry. Have M&M packets made up with the SFI and TC Logo that you are giving out. Or some other kind of advertising freebie that the potential members would keep, such as a keychain or nail file printed with SFI and TC logos. These items can be a big investment, so choose them wisely.

11. Bring your transfer bought products and make a display showing that you can make money purchasing what you use every day from TC.

12.Make as many different displays of pictures, items and sales promotional materials as you can to attract as many people as possible.

13. Make sure the people working the kiosk don't just sit and wait for people to come. Have them be active in promoting SFI by walking up to and talking with anyone and everyone that stops and listens.

14. Have someone walking around the venue where you are promoting SFI wearing an advertising board that has the SFI logo on it front and back. They would then tell people where your kiosk is located if they want more information and would be giving out your business card to everyone they see. SFI gift cards would be ideal for this type of promotion.

15. Be sure that everyone involved is wearing SFI advertising clothing, such as shirts and hats.

Many people joining SFI have no knowledge of internet advertising. Advertising on the internet for free is very challenging. It takes study, effort, and good old hard work.

Here is what a sponsor can do to help their members.

1. Check out the ECA's in the members country and/or region. Then send them the information they need so that they can do the same. Pick out some products from this country, and advertise them yourself. Then send the results to your member, listing where and how you advertised. Send them your Excel tracking file and encourage them to do the same either with the same products or some others. Try to pick inexpensive items that can be used for transfer buying.

2. Do some research on what products are most popular now. Find them on TC, and send this list to your downline in a weekly newsletter with possible free or very inexpensive places to advertise.

3. When you are doing your own advertising and notice an inexpensive special that would help your members purchase advertising, send them a message with the information

4. Suggest that they check out the local newspapers, and other local venues to advertise TCECA products and sponsoring.

5. As a sponsor set up your own ECA, and let your members know what you have for sale, and send them a list with possible advertising methods and what is working for you. Also make up banners for your products and send them the banners with their ID so they can advertise for you, and make money for both of you.

6. Send them lists of banners to use for advertising and where to place them. For instance; SFi has numerous banners for auctions, games and tcredit purchases that you can use. These purchases provide direct commissions when purchased or used.

7. Divide your weekly newsletter into sections such as Affirmation where you congratulate and praise your members, information that they might not know, and a TCECA section where you highlight what you are one of your members has advertised and where the advertising was most successful.

8. Encourage your member to sell local merchants on becoming ECA's. That is where the most money in SFI is. If your member has ECA members they make 10% of the CV, and VP with every purchase for life. They also receive 100 VP for each approved/activated ECA they refer.

9, Encourage them to get business pages on social media outlets where they can mention products and share what they are using themselves.

10. Encourage them to talk about the features of products on their personal Facebook and other social media pages.

11. Send then some Ebooks from your collection that you have found helpful.

12. Make selling TCECA products the major focus for new members. This will help them to get the money they need for an SO every month and make their SFI experience more financially rewarding.

There are numerous samples of welcome letters in the forum and ASKSC; that you can revise and make your own. One of the new ECA's has ten welcome letters you can purchase to use. SFI's default letter has worked well for me.

Other communication can be done using Ecards, and kind words that show you care about the individuals.

You can show love for them by translating your materials into their language so that they can read them easier. The words don't have to be fancy or even 100% correct if they come from your heart.

Write your communication as if you were talking to them. Sometimes it helps to put a mirror or a picture up and write as you would talk to them.

We have the stream, the weekly 30 VP letters that are all great practice when you don't have a responsive team. You can experiment with many different ways to say something in these letters, and then repeat and reuse those that give you some response.

Look at SFI's advertising material, and study the different ways they say the important things about SFI.

Read and respond to the forum for practice. If you write a letter that you are concerned about, put it in the forum and ask for feedback.

The main thing is that your writing is done consistently, shows that you care about them and how they are progressing. It doesn't have to be done perfectly, in fact a lot of what we read in the forum isn't great English, but is understandable. That is all you need as long as it is from the heart.

Having no funds to invest makes SFI more challenging. Many of us don't have funds, so here are some suggestions.

1. Write affirmations using all of the methods available in SFI. Stream, chat, message, and ecards.

2. Place some free advertisements for your members using their ID instead of yours.

3. Set up a coop for your standing order, and place them in your coop so they get signups. You can service their signups even if they are in your 2nd level if your PSA doesn't follow through for you.

4. Send them informative messages.

5. Help them with ECA set ups. Encourage them to set up and ECA for themselves and anyone else they can. Having an ECA both their own ECA and other people's ECA helps them to stay more involved and interested. Gives them some DC income.

6. Reassign members to them even if they are inactive. Try to match them to their language and region. If you have active members you can reassign, you don't lose them, you can continue to work with them. I do it through my PSA by sending copies of everything I do for his PSA, and getting his permission. That helps to keep both of them involved, especially if they are new to SFI.
