I think the best way to predict the final price
in the "Pick The Price Game" would be best done
after a little research.

Check out what the item has gone for in past auctions.
The time of day or night and was it on Tuesday or Saturday.
All of these variables have impact on what the final price
will likely be.

Of course, all of the research can give you past history,
past prices, etc... but one variable that is hard to predict is
human behavior.

So knowing a little about some of the regular and "Big Dog" players
and some of the things they do could be beneficial to you.

Most of all hope that luck is on your side!

Whether you are a fairly new ECA or have been one for years, this is an international company and I think we should all strive to be international associates.
Unless you want your business to stay small because as long as you are only selling to your local area, there is not much chance of your business growing.
Once you expose your business and your products or services to the international market you see that sales increase and business grows!
I hope this helps, may your business grow and prosper.

I think that a newsletter should of course have news associated with SFI, TripleClicks or PriceBenders. As it is newsworthy, like letting your team know that Triple Clicks now features X amount of products with X amount of ECA's from X amount of countries. This is useful information to help in the "selling process"
I find people are impressed and actually are interested in knowing more when I say that TripleClicks offers over 100,000 products from over 150 countries.

Besides company news I think the best thing to put in a newsletter would be things that will help your team, like advertising tips or tips on how to sell more products from store.
Things to say to people when trying to recruit them to SFI, useful information that you have found that works.
Try book reviews, get an Ebook in store and offer it up to your team to read and ask them to write a review, or you give it a review. Not only are you supporting store but educating team.
One other thing should be recognition to team members even if its a small step... anything to make team fill like you are watching what is going on and you are there to cheer them on.
Wisdom quotes are good along with positive thoughts that you want to share.
I hope this helps.

That is a good question, a good answer to this question is since this is an international company with so many different people in so many different countries I think the main thing one should be most concerned about would be getting reasonable shipping prices that wouldn't make any item unobtainable.
People will buy expensive item online and/or an inexpensive items depending on their own particular wants and needs.
I would not have a problem with purchasing pricey items online in fact price does not matter on certain things. If I want something it is usually because it is something unique, or it is something I can not find anywhere else.
So I would suggest that items to sell at TripleClicks should be a variety of prices.
If you only sell cheap items you will never know if you could have sold expensive.
In fact most retail stores have "leader ads" inexpensive items meant to get people in the door, but then that is where salesmanship comes in. Have the cheap item but you should try to upsell the customer into something more expensive.
I worked for a major car company that would run ads for a little truck at a super low price to get people in the door, we had one at that price and we were told we would be fired if we sold that truck. I worked there for a year and a lot of people came in to buy that truck. Yes,we sold a lot of trucks, but not that truck.
Don't leave money on the table and don't assume that people only want cheap stuff.
Variety is the spice of life.
Hope this helps.

The main thing is to advertise, advertise, advertise. Tell everyone you know and even those you don't know, hand out cards, hang flyers, start a blog, or build a website.

"Since SFI has been around for many years, is the playing field fair for someone who have just started in SFI like me?"

Good question, one that I thought about and I'm sure many other people have wondered about.
I joined SFI in Aug. 2013 and I believe that the playing field is fair. I say this because, you and I and well everyone receives the same training. I did not pay extra to get the advanced training... we both have access to the same tools, resources and of course support.
Plus, we all start each month at ground zero, we all must earn our VP. Everyone from a newly joined affiliate to the Platinum Team Leaders.
Since we all have the same training, tools, resources and support, we also have the same opportunities available. The playing field is level, it is now up to YOU what you do with it.

I think we can all relate to this question. Whether it is our own personal dilemma or one we hear from our down line.
Honestly, it doesn't really cost that much, there are tons of ways to get free advertising, it is just a matter of searching for one form or another that works.
I say that people who are on a "tight budget" will have to work a little harder, or maybe they have to give up some luxury that they CAN live without. For example. when I was going to college, I was really struggling. One luxury I gave up was cable TV. I never had cable TV. Most of my friends were shocked and amazed - how could I possibly live without cable?
Simple truth was, I didn't watch much TV, so it didn't bother me to not have it.
I even stopped driving my car for a short time because I couldn't afford the gas. I started riding a bike everywhere.
It was not just good for me but I inspired other people around me to go back to school.
More of my friends started riding their bikes too. We can make it work if we need to and most important...if we want to...
