I usually do not try to convince anyone in anything anymore.

I give them opportunity and if they do not embrace it is their loss.

When I tried to convince someone I had higher rate of rejection.

When I was calm and offering opportunity and not pushy the better results I have had. My moto is: I can live without you because there will be next one who will understand and embrace the opportunity.

And I understand people. There have been many scams and schemes where you had aggressive, boring people trying to sell you things and promised you fortune. I do not want to reflect that image.

In terms of income the Earnings calculator and the Compensation plan is simple and transparent but some of them were not happy with those. They said it was to slow for them to earn money. Should I keep convincing that kind of people. I will not.

But that is only me and I do not claim me being right.

I would definitely direct them towards the Marketing methods references provided by SFI. They should read that because there are the basics.

However, different people prefer or are successful in different methods.

Some people are not good with computers so that method is maybe not the best for them and they would be more successful with offline advertising.

Some people are not good in expressing themselves verbally so they would go for something else.

Environment or surroundings where people fluctuate on a daily basis can have an influence on choosing the right method...students for example who are communicating with lots of people on a daily basis.

I think one should take all this and much more into consideration and than make a suggestion. Talk to your PSA, get familiar with them and discuss all this.
Then together you can decide what works best for them.

When I joined SFI I did not have a clue what I can expect from the programme at that time so my long term goals were quite unrealistic. And I believe that is a common case.

Even my monthly goals in first months were not close to reality. However, now I see where I am and I am pushing a bar higher every month in order to motivate me.

How I do is to analyze my monthly trend and see where is that going to take me in a year. If I am happy with the outcome I stick to it..if not I raise my monthly goals.

But option is also to be firm and persistent with a long term goal and work back to see what you need to achieve every month to reach it.

I believe these are tailored to different affiliates' needs so what's best for someone is not necessarily best for others.

If you have a knowledge in online marketing and business generally, you probably would go for something else than IAHBE...probably for TCredits in order to bid on auctions, etc.

Someone with good advertising skills and established web page and his recruiting system would not go for S-builder, for example.

Those interested in auctions and who see other benefits of TCredits would go for them.

I personally have chosen 125TC SO for a simple reason that I do advertising on my own, I use them on PB auctions and because for every bid I get 1 Action VP which assists me in maintaining my status.

I believe the combination of both online and offline marketing would be the best.

However, SFI is a numbers game since you need to address a huge number of individuals in order to get a few successful ones. In that regard online marketing has an advantage and offline approach would be time consuming and limited to your surroundings.

If you want to work internationally then your direct approach is limited as well.

On the other side direct approach has its own advantages since direct communication and your advertising skills come to the fore. It is easier to be convinced by someone who is looking you directly to your eyes rather than by some virtual person.

Be aware that your CSAs are someone's PSAs. So, one thing you can hope for is that their direct sponsor will motivate them along with your efforts.

Try to establish contact, either via e-mail, CSA mailer or chat if they are online.

But to answer your question precisely...Many people register out of curiosity what SFI is all about and they do not find it attractive..with these you cannot do much. But sometimes people have a bad period in life, other interests, or just it is not a good moment for them. But after a while they activate again..So, be patient, use your weekly CSA mailer and hope for the best.

Firstly you have to lead by example. You cannot expect someone to do something that you are not doing.

Secondly, direct them to SFI Compensation plan and ask if they understood it. Provide additional explanation if needed.

Thirdly, point them out to Marketing aids and techniques and provide additional assistance with it if needed.

And finally and most importantly, do not get disappointed if just a few of those you have sponsored make it. That is just reality of life. Just carry on and diamonds will show up eventually.

Well, in SFI you become Team leader when YOU decide to raise your commitment to a higher level. There are more benefits but there are also certain obligations in order to get those benefits.

You do not have to be a born leader in order to have others following you. In terms of following you, here it is called DUPLICATION and it is one of the key factor of SFI business.

Make sure you are doing the right thing and that you are committed to SFI. Thus your team will copy that behavior...Here you go- you lead people.

Make sure you read and build your knowledge base..People will ask you..When you now the answer or at least to point them in right direction..Thats what leaders do - Again - you lead people.

So do not worry..you can do it.

Well, the way you constructed your question gives the answer. To become a team leader you need to qualify first. But to maintain your leadership status there are other things you need to do and to be a good team leader there are some traits you need to have.

How to be a good leader has already been covered in ASK SC. However, you need to have a team, otherwise you will not be able to earn sufficient number of action VPs you are required to do every month. In order to achieve that you have to lead by example and show how it is done so the others can copy your actions.

Leadership page needs to be regularly updated.

You have to be ready to answer their questions or to show them where the answers are.
