Simple fact is the best gift you can give anyone that joins your team is KNOWLEDGE.

If you give them gifts all it does is create a culture where they will expect to receive gifts in order to remain active, and as soon as you stop sending them gifts they will just turn their attention elsewhere.

You need to give them the knowledge that the only way they will truly benefit not just from SFI but from any program they participate in, they must apply themselves fully and commit to

There are a number of factors that will impact on whether or not auto bidding will be effective.

One of the key things with any auction is the time of day when it starts and ends, you will generally find that during the hours of night time in the USA you will stand a greater chance of being able to win an auction at a significantly lower price, for those such auctions auto bidding can be a sure fire way of being able to win the auction, though place a few manual bids to get a feel for

Most marketers fail through their own lack of trying.

The most valuable skill that any marketer can have is to have an approach towards the opportunities they promote using patience and persistence.

A lot of people think they can find success by jumping from program to program, fact is 99% of the time the individuals that engage in that kind of behaviour generally find little to no success and as a result they give up.

Simply by showing your downline the success that

As with any opportunity, the very best way of convincing someone of the potential of SFI is to show them the proof of what YOU have personally achieved from your membership there.

You can tell people all the marketing hype and jargon under the some, and whilst some may be drawn in by that kind of misinformation, the one thing that will really be able to prove it is having cold hard facts to present them with.

As they say "the proof is in the pudding" so if you are

People often have their reasons for leaving a site when they have been active, it's just the way things go and you just have to really move on and keep on pushing to draw in more affiliates to your downline and hope that they will see the potential of SFI.

Most people expect things to happen quickly without them having to put the work in themselves, and they are the ones that will be constantly jumping from site to site never really applying themselves so there is no point in dwelling

I want to advertise and sell TripleClicks products...but which ones should I choose to promote?

It all depends on where you are planning on promoting the products and who your intended audience are.

Ultimately if you are able to sell any triple clicks products it will benefit you, and just like online marketing in general it can often be the luck of the draw that makes the difference between capturing a sale and just gaining passing interest.

That said however, when you are trying to sell anything online it always presents a distinct advantage if you sell something from

What's the best answer to give to SFI prospects who ask, how does it work...and what do you do?

Personally I would tell them to join the site, take some time to look around and they will get all the information they need with regards to what SFI is all about and how to best utilize it.

The draw of being able to earn a residual income from a site that's been online for over 16 years and is free to join should be all the information you need to give anyone to get them interested, the SFI site itself will do all the explaining for you

How do I get my team to understand the potential of SFI and TripleClicks?

The best thing you can do is lead by example and give them the real world examples of your own personal success stories from your time with SFI.

You don't have to feed people stories about how you can potentially earn thousands of dollars every month, tell them the truth, that if they apply themselves to promoting and putting some work in on a daily basis they should start to see some financial return for their efforts within a couple of months.

People often take a lot of time

It always pays to be able to have some unique way of promoting an opportunity especially when it's something like SFI which has such a massive membership.

People generally get fed up seeing the same promotional pages time and time again.

But this doesn't necessarily mean you have to setup your own website or blog, all it means is that it can be to your advantage to create a single unique page or splash page to promote the SFI opportunity so that it will appear you are offering

Which form of advertising generates the highest quality, most active PSAs and why?

The most effective form of online advertising is always through using Safelist Mailers.

The reason why it is an effective form of recruitment is that it is highly targeted, you have to capture the persons interest with the subject line, then through the mail content itself you provide the facts which give reason for them to signup and become an active member.

Ultimately the results can vary, but you can improve the results significantly by always using unique and factual information
