The SFI email utility is an invaluable tool because it allows you to choose the members of your downline that you want to communicate with. For example, if you want to email all new SFI affiliates in your downline each day, you can just use the Genealogy to sort your downline by the Date Joined and filter it using today's date. Then you can send an email to just those affiliates. The SFI email utility is also effective if you are trying to reach affiliates that you do not have email addresses for.

However, using your own email address is most effective when trying to reach SFI affiliates who have not opted out of SFI but are no longer logging in to SFI. That way they get your message even if they don't log in to SFI.

Yes, you gain much more credibility when you put into practice the things that you recommend to your downline, especially progressing in rank and maintaining that rank once you have achieved it. This gives your downline the confidence to realize that it can be done. Whenever your downline views your affiliate snapshot and sees the rank that you have achieved, they aspire to attain the rank that you have. I know that my sponsor's excellent example and rank of Silver Team Leader inspires me to work harder and support my downline more so that I too can be a Silver Team Leader soon.

Those who achieve mediocrity have an attitude that says, "I'll do enough just to get by." They are not enthusiastic or passionate about what they are doing, so they do not inspire others to follow their example. Therefore, they do not reach their full potential.

However, those who achieve success have an attitude that says, "I'll do whatever it takes to succeed." They are enthusiastic and so passionate about what they are doing, that they attract likeminded people who are not only willing to follow their example, they are willing to assist them in getting to the top. Therefore, they reach their full potential, and sometimes, even reach farther than they or anyone else thought possible.

Having a co-op does not help you get your downline active and stay active. If the affiliates in your downline are not prepared to support the affiliates that sign-up through the co-op, it may actually scare them away from SFI. It is important that the affiliates you add to your co-op have shown interest in sponsoring affiliates, have been consistently working their SFI business already, and already know what it takes to be an awesome sponsor or are eager to learn what it takes to be an awesome sponsor.

This is a great question! I choose the SFI banner that best fits the audience that will be viewing it. For example, if your blog is being seen by a lot of working moms, you should choose the SFI banner about "How Can You Spend More Time With Your Kids?" If older people are viewing your site, you may want to use the SFI banner that asks if they are worried about retirement.

So many people join SFI because it is free to join. However, many do nothing with SFI because they are not willing or do not have the free time to learn how to earn with SFI. There are several things that you can do about this. Always send a welcome message and see if the new affiliate responds to the message with questions. Check your Movers tab each day and see if your new affiliates are there. If they are not, and you are able to call them, call your new affiliates and see what they were looking when they joined SFI and see if you can answer any questions they have that will motivate them to give SFI a try once again. Share your SFI story, as it usually helps to motivate new affiliates.

Nevertheless, there will be people that just are not ready to utilize what SFI has to offer. No one program fits everyone's needs. So, please do not stop your progress with SFI because other's do not see its potential as a real income opportunity. You only need 4-5 affiliates in your first generation who are willing to stick with SFI to start earning a real income with this program. Work with those 4-5 affiliates closely while supporting the others in your downline as well, then teach your 4-5 to duplicate your efforts. If the others see your success, eventually they may return to SFI and give it another chance. To your success!

You can find SFI success stories in the SFI forum, in the a2a stream, and on your uplines' leadership pages. In addition, on the left side of the screen on the SFI website, you can often find testimonials written by successful SFI affiliates.

For me, I already feel successful with SFI even though I am not yet at the top of leaderboard. I feel like a winner for choosing to stick with the SFI income opportunity because I have been privileged to win so many prizes since I have become an SFI affiliate in May of 2012. I even won the $250 cash Wave3 drawing! The wonderful friendships that I have with my SFI sponsor and members of my downline also contribute to my feeling of success with SFI.

One of the best reasons for setting up a Standing Order is so that SFI affiliates can choose the items they love and want to receive every month all in one place. In addition, TripleClicks provides you a discount on Standing Order products once an SFI affiliate sets up their first Standing Order. Even a Standing Order for just 1 TCredit will activate the discount on any additional Standing Order products added to an affiliate's future standing orders.
