Support does not have to be financial, you can succeed in this business w/o spending money if you can't afford to do it. Spending money = investing in your business and this will speed up the process but it is not a must.

So, supporting the affiliates in your team can be done by being an Awesome Sponsor and by Leading by Example!

Make sure you are committed to your business and Show It! Your badges speak for this. Train your team to duplicate your efforts and you'll all see the results eventually.

To your success!

There is this saying: you have to spend money to make money!

There is no business that becomes profitable w/o investment; whether time, energy or money and most of time a business requires all these types of investments.

SFI is no different: we invest time and energy every day by doing the daily tasks, advertising, sponsoring, recruiting, selling, etc. This will eventually lead to having a team and being successful.
But without monetary investment it will take a little longer.
You can not maintain EA status (beyond the second month)w/o monetary investment unless you have a strong team with at least 11 EA2s in it (to give you 11 x 100 = 1100 VP for sponsoring and the rest of 400 VP you earn by doing your tasks). To create this team takes time....

If you make a small investment and place a standing order of 1100 VP or better you reach the successful stage much faster as you get all the benefits of being EA right from the start.

The "one thing" that has made the difference for me was the fact the SFI is a REAL system that actually makes sense, it's easy to understand and it works. Once I realized this it motivated me to work the system and become successful; I knew then that I'm not wasting my time, energy and investment into some "get-rich-scheme" but rather in a proven opportunity and that did it for me!

If you can not afford paid advertising you have to dedicate as much time and energy as possible to the free methods available to you:

- create a facebook page for your SFI business and invite all your friend to see it
- post ads on Craigslist and other free advertising sites using your Gateways
- print the SFI sponsoring flyers and post them on bulletin boards
- spread the word about SFI within your family, circle of friend, neighbors, church, school, work, etc.
- purchase the X-Cards below and "leave them behind" everywhere you go, place them in library books, give them to people you talk to, etc.

- print ECA flyers and give them to the local merchants that may be interested in the program
https://www.sfimg.com/Resources/ECAFlyers
- be creative, look around your community, find a desired item in short supply and if available at TripleClicks direct people to purchase it from there thru you

Hope this helps and will bring you some success!

Best of Luck!

Remain positive!

Negative people will try to bring you down to their level. Do not becoming argumentative. Allow negative talk to bounce off you.
Negative and positive attitudes can both be contagious.
Instead of being drawn into someone's negativity, you can present a positive attitude that may help to change their attitude. But, don't waste too much time trying to change it, it may not be possible.

You very well know the reasons you joined SFI and the benefits; some may just not get it!

Keep your head up, brush it off and move forward!

The affiliates that find success in a few weeks are those that approach the business in an "aggressive" way; they either:

- have financial power and use it for paid advertising or to purchase signups from SFI/ECA and build a large team very fast without expecting to recuperate this initial investment right away, or

- have internet advertising experience and/or huge networking and build a large team very fast with lower initial investment

In both cases building a large team is not sufficient, leading by example, coaching and teaching are required to achieve duplication; some luck in finding good team members is required as well as we know it is a numbers game.

The affiliates that take longer to achieve success are "moderate" in their way of approaching this business, perhaps don't invest too much at the beginning and take longer to build the team that will eventually bring success.

Hope this makes sense.

Your Goals should be Realistic!

Set them too high - you'll be disappointed when you can't reach them and lose the motivation and drive!!

Set them too low - you won't be using all your potential and sell yourself short!

Look at your progress in the last few months, analyze it, if you're happy with what you've accomplished set your next month goals 10% higher; this way you challenge yourself and test your capabilities as the same time.

If you're not happy with what you've accomplish set your goals much higher to test your capabilities and then challenge yourself with the 10% increase each month.

Don't forget to improve your knowledge in the mean time, you won't be able to advance and reach the higher goals without proper training and hard work.

Remain positive! Think Big and Aim High!

Negative people will try to bring you down to their level. Do not argue. Allow negative talk to bounce off you. Don't waste too much time trying to convince them, it may not be possible.

Negative and positive attitudes can both be contagious.

So, be positive and your attitude will show! Eventually people that rejected the opportunity will think again about it!

In my half year with SFI, the most valuable thing I learned (the hard way) is to take my time, not rush things and everything will eventually fall in place.

Do not become Team Leader without having a team of EA2s. You may find yourself spending a lot trying to maintain the TL status and the benefits won't be there.

Start by maintaining your EA2 status every month, build your team of at least five EA2s and then push to become Team Leader!
