Initially focus on one and get good at it, get to the point where it is making you regular money, where you are putting less effort into generating results. This could be a particular product or ECA you promote in a particular way.

Then find a second and do the same. Then a third. Congratulations, you now have Multiple Income Streams!

A good piece of advice is to promote and market a product or service that you yourself use and are passionate about. This means you know the product and can speak honestly and in depth about it, you are an expert, you know your company and your product. This will come across well.

Don't try to sell things just because you think it will make you quick bucks or a lot of bucks, because when that falls through you will start blaming the product or yourself and start "negging". An IAHBE membership, if sold, will get you commission, but if you yourself are not an IAHBE member, if you don't believe in it enough to buy it and use it, then you will find it hard to sell many over a period of time.

And then teach your downline to duplicate your success, and leverage their efforts.

You will very soon have Multiple Income Streams, residual income and leveraged income.

Dream big and aim high.

It all depends on how you want to use the money.

As we all need an SO to keep EA and we all need to use TC as our own store, you can deposit a chunk back in by buying T Credits - invest some back in your business.

Now depending how much you are earning each month, and hopefully this is growing each month, it might still be time to let those earnings accumulate for a bit then take a big lump sum cheque.

Now if you are at the point where you SFI earnings has reached an actual income level, you will need to think about transferring the money just as you do in your day job or business. This is when you may still consider a monthly cheque or use Paypal, so the money ends up in an account that you can now use. Is SFI now paying the bills or at least some of them? You will evolve the ways to use your money as your income grows.

When the income gets high enough consider Payoneer. That starts to give you more freedom with how you spend that money and opens up a whole new world.

Aim high and dream big!

It's great when we receive our CSAs. It's annoying when they do nothing.

Whether they are PSA or a CSA, the old adage about how you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink applies
(the actual answer to this is that if you hold it's head under it will start to swallow the water before breathing it in - but that may be considered an extreme solution)

Emailing is the obvious solution and no doubt many people will suggest this. However what you need to do is send an email that offers something they are not already getting from SFI or their own sponsor, not just a list of links to Launchpad that they have already received.

Do you have a Co-op? Are you running a contest? Are you offering T Credits?

And are you offering direct support, an email or other way to contact you personally? Maybe, as so many experience, they have an inactive sponsor who is not helping them, and you as their co-sponsor have the golden opportunity to be the mentor and leader they need.

Start with CSA mailer, and make it personal. Then see which CSAs start to reply and why.

"You can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink"

Maybe so. But are you doing everything you can to actually lead it to the water in the first place?

Firstly are these ECAs you have sponsored or ECAs you have connected to?

Have you been promoting the ECAs page?
Have you got your affiliates to connect and promote the page?

If you have done these actions, you can tell the ECA owner, who you should know in person, at least by email, that you and your team are standing ready to sell his products. Where are they? Come on, get them listed!

Perhaps there is a reason why they have not listed and they need help, so if you are their referrer, now you have offered encouragement, offer whatever help they may need.

Once you have successfully done this with one ECA you will be able to DUPLICATE your results with other ECAs. And to show your affiliates how to do the same with ECAs they recruit.

Both!

Spend time and money to build your business, depending how much of each you have to set aside each day, week and month.

Use S Builder to build a strong team, invest your money in the best method for targeting SFI affiliates. How many shares you buy is up to you. There are also other methods for buying PSAs, and ways to win them, to bid for them in auctions.

Use the sponsoring methods to advertise and recruit affiliates, there are many to choose from. Spend some time on finding ad sites, choosing the rights messages, following up leads. Maybe an autoresponder campaign. Maybe use WAVE3 offline. Use other offline methods to recruit locally.

You'll soon find the best balance for you and, most importantly, you'll be able to show your new affiliates how to DUPLICATE your methods, and build their own teams the same way.

The more expertise you acquire, the more you have to share.

To qualify for Team Leader you simply have to BE a Team Leader! That's it!

Build your team, sponsor affiliates, refer TC customers. Show your affiliates how to do the same, lead them to become EA, then again next month so they are EA2. Each personally Sponsored EA2 gets you 100 VP. This how you start to make qualifying VP to reach TL status.

Check the Scoreboard - the higher your PSAs rank, the more points you will accrue. Don't expect to "just" become a BTL if you are not sponsoring any EA2s. Why are your PSAs not achieving EA status in their second month? What can you do to help? Don't expect to be STL if you are not sponsoring BTLs. Help your EAs become BTLs first and your STL status will follow.

Don't focus on just getting the rank itself, that is the wrong way to look at it. How can you be a "Team Leader" if you are not leading a team to do anything?

And don't look for a "secret" to doing it, there are none - do what the other TLs have done and duplicate those methods to duplicate that level of success.

And don't look for the "easy" way to do it, you need to work at it, earn it and deserve it. If there was a secret and easy way to become a TL it wouldn't be worth becoming one!

It would be great if your sponsor was your mentor wouldn't it? But that sadly is often not the case.

Look at who else is in your upline. STL, GTL, PTL. Have a look at their leadership page, do they have a co-op, what advice do they give. Contact them personally, add them on A2A, see if they are on the forum. Read their posts, reply, join the conversation. Show your interest, take up their points and ask further questions.

A mentor is looking for someone to mentor, a protégé. There is someone up there who is looking for you, looking for someone like you to pass knowledge to and to give assistance and advice to.

What qualifies someone as a mentor? Their time and knowledge in the business. How many years have they been doing this? What is their VP streak, EA streak, what badges have they earned? Are they the kind of SFI-er you want to become? A role model as well as a mentor!

And remember the ultimate mentor in SFI is Gery himself, the reason we are all here :)

The most valuable thing I learned is to learn!

"Earn while you learn" we see posted but what does that really mean?

Refer customer to TripleClicks - Sponsor Affiliates to SFI - DUPLICATE!

A simple plan but you have to learn how to do each step and to keep doing it.

The forum is a great place to ask questions, answer them, and see a lot of good answers and positive response. You also see some bad answers and negative response, but this is also a good thing as it is a mirror and a perspective. If someone posts a positive attitude, mindset message of course we want to follow it. But if someone posts a negative message it's an indicator and a warning against letting us also slip into negative thoughts.

Learn to learn. There are no overnight success stories here as the people who have been successful took about 3 years. And in your first year you realise how much more you can learn in the next year and the next year after that.

Is there anyone who worked SFI fully for 3 whole years who can post to say it doesn't work? Even if they did, all it would really mean is it didn't work for them, or more relevantly, they didn't make it work for them.

Learn, be patient, persevere.

It has been said that "good things come to those who wait"

But also keep in mind that the things that come to those who wait are the things that were left behind by those who got there first.

Are you sitting there waiting for things to come to you or are you getting out there and going after them?

The main thing about SFI is that it is a real business and not a Get Rich Quick scheme.

Many people will join up and expect instant results. They need to understand that it takes time to get the business running, to learn what you need to learn and to apply it, to get the ads in place and the responses coming in.

They need to read the stories of the people who have been successfull in SFI. You will not find one overnight success, the people making big money took years to build their team, to build their business. Gery himself writes about this often.

We see members at the forum who place a couple of ads and because they don't have an instant team of 100 affiliates think they are "getting nowhere". We see members who buy a share in S Builder and think they will have a huge team a week later, not realising it takes over a month to see the first results, and that the bigger results will come in time.

SFI is about duplicating success and every successfull person, every leader, took TIME to get there.

It is not that they are "getting nowhere", it is that they are not getting anywhere YET.

All good things to those who wait.
You have to sow and wait before you can reap.
