Hello, Geraldine Cabanero!

Platinum Team Leader (PTL)rank is the external sign of SFI Success.

Those who have achieved it work to maintain it
Those of us who have not yet, work to reach it.

I have noticed one or two good answers to your question. They basically rephrase and expand the SFI definition and requirements for reaching the rank, then go on to explain how you can score the 4000 actions points needed.

However there is more to it than the definition

Hello, Diana Fields!

We have been, lately, having some repeated questions about quitting.

I. What your question may mean
For me, this is an expression of introspection and self interrogations that can be translated as:

(1) Is SFI for me?
(2) How soon can I expect a positive cash flow?
(3) What is the most cost effective way to grow my SFI Business.

These are legitimate questions, all of which relate to the investments in time and resources

Best Greetings to you, Natasa
Ironically those who are worthy to recruit and sponsor into SFI are the easiest to convince after they have had previous negative experiences with online marketing.
We know that the majority of today’s online businesses are questionable, not properly planned, and not correctly designed. Most of them are hasty attempts to enroll people with the highest fees payable either upfront or very shortly after.
Hence, this situation offers two major advantages

Hi, Natasa!
I am glad you asked this timely question.
What new affiliates do in their first month will either
(i) Speed up their success, or
(ii) Hinder it and make it difficult for them to recover from their early mistakes
The first month is critical.
Your question is timely for we all need to be fully aware of it, as team leaders.
It is also a timeless question, as every day, new affiliates are faced with it.
So, what is it?

Hello, Teresa.

Is-it perseverance that brings back you daily to SFI, as if you are making an effort?

For me, it is the positive feeling: the enjoyment of being part of SFI.

There are three reasons for my enjoyment.

1. The friendships I have built

2. The income I am making

3. SFI is part of my overall plan to build lasting wealth

I. SFI is a network of friends
I have been with SFI for over 7 months now. I have built

You have basically three options for setting up and advertising co-op for you and your downline.
A. The first option is to set it outside of SFI. Then you are merely building an advertising and a marketing tool like any other online marketer. You will have to make sure that you are complying with SFI’s rules of communication with affiliates, whether they are personally sponsored or co-sponsored affiliate or whether they are your a2a friends. This question is being discussed at Ask SC as well

Hello, Marty Mccommon

TC Gifts Cards are a marketing tool.

To answer your question, one should look at which market you are using this tool.

a. If your target is your warm market, then in person, (or offline) might be the most effective way.

b. If you are using TC Gift cards to attract a larger population of potential prospects, then definitely, online distribution is the most effective.

c. When you start using TC Gift cards, you may aim at
