I will be short and simple and I will write it in capital letters....TRANSPARENCY and NO FALSE PROMISSES make me proud to be part of SFI. Lack of these two is what is unfortunately very common in this type of business. Because of many programs that were scams you have people who are cautious and generally suspitious about affiliate programmes. Here, you are clearly said what is expected if you want to be successful.

How do you deal with PSAs who you offer unconditional support but still rate you poorly?

Firstly I would look back and check if I really provided good and unconditional support. Was my sponsor strategy appropriate? I would check Be an awesome sponsor article again and check if I was actually realistic when thinking of myself as an awesome sponsor.
One of these things and these have already been discussed here is how often you communicate with affiliates. Good sponsor should not been perceived as boring and pushy. So there should be a balance.

And although it hurts your

I start from the beginning…..advertizing. Many people put misleading advertisements promising this and that. What are you going to get in that case? Lots of signups seeking to get rich over night with as less work invested as possible. Maybe quantity, but rarely quality.

So, honest and straightforward advertisement is crucial for the quality.

Secondly, where you publish that advertisements is also vital. What is your target group? Have you tailored your advertisement towards

We have all, at least I have joined because of earning additional income. I took my time to study the programme and one of things was Earning calculator. I put some numbers in and than there was a prediction of my earnings over time.
I played with it and then asked myself?
How I am going to make it? Will I give up somewhere along the way? Do I have enough patience to wait for the satisfactory income?

But then again the earning formula is simple and I said to myself: It is all

How do you handle prospects and affiliates who expect to get rich fast?

I do not see anything wrong if someone wants to get rich fast. However, understanding the methods of getting there is very often a problem.
If someone thinks that just by clicking buttons can earn and get rich I immediately warn them that it is not the case here.
Rather I point them to the Compensation plan and Earnings calculator. If they can follow the steps it does not matter how fast they do it.
Some would need more time but some would easily achieve success.

Primarily, the very fact they registered means they want to earn.
Therefore I focus on making them understand how the money is earned here.

Then I do my best to point out the transparency and honesty of this program since many have negative experience with previous ones.

I also point out my achievements with the logic why I should waste my time and efforts and spend more than a year here if it did not work.

I tend not to be pushy with e-mails but rather be

Can I set up my SFI business to run on autopilot? If so, how?

Pilots regularly use autopilots but taking off the runways is still pilots' job :).

By this I mean that you have to go into details of this business and put some effort in order to enjoy the benefits later.

Although this is very well designed technical environment, still it relies heavily on human interaction. So to answer your question: If you want to succeed - no.

In order to answer your question I was thinking to list the things they should do and then the failure of doing these would be the answer to your question. But then I paused and had a thought....

What would really happen in that case? Would they fail? Would that make them less successful on the long run?

I made mistakes and I could have done things differently but I am still progressing.
People have different styles and attitudes...some have problem with listening for

How do you convince your life partner that investing in your SFI business is prudent?

Firstly as with your PSAs you have to explain the concept and how you can earn with SFI.

Secondly when I invest money I deduce it from my own pleasures such as cigarettes, going out with friends, etc. so my investment does not interfere with my home budget.

When my investment has shown results my partner understood the worth of investing in this business.

Answer:For the same reason why you should take on a role of a leader.
However, I will address 2 points here:
1. You want to guide your PSA the best way possible so they can develop their system and business. By doing this you get benefits and that is how you earn here.
Ideally the same logic is transferred down your generations.
And again, you benefit from it.
That is called duplication.
2. If you do not do that, and your team members do not do that...! The duplication
