SFI is your new business.

I feel it is very important to have the family support when starting any new business and SFI is no different.

I know that sometimes people do become rather skeptical of online businesses but that could be just because they don't understand how it works.
Explain to your family why you have started this business opportunity and how you feel it will benefit your life. This way they will understand and become less cynical.

But remember

There are so many ways you can communicate with your downline here at SFI. Personally i find the instant chat an amazing tool for this. It shows that you are really there and not just some pencil pusher without personality. This is especially good when your affiliates are online at the same time as you. Its like having a phone conversation, Effective and you always receive the replies quicker.

I also like to send emails to my downline using their email address. This also shows that you

There are many resources available from SFI and this is enough for most people when they are starting out, I do find that once you have outgrown the basic team building methods some people struggle with new ideas.
One of the best resources I have ever used is building your own website. This is a great way to spread the word about the opportunity of SFI and the benefits it provides.
When you have your own website for your SFI business you can use targeted advertising, Traffic Purchasing

This a great question and it is a different thing for each person.

For me personally it was when i received my first commission payment. It wasn't much, $1.53 i think it was but when i received that it showed me that this company os the real deal and this is the start of something beautiful.
Now I have my own team and I sell products on TripleClicks and the income keeps coming.

The first payment no matter how small it is, is a huge thing for many affiliates and it shows

Earning 1000 AVP on your own can seem like something impossible but it is not as hard once you have found a method.
My favourite way to earn the AVP is with the games on TripleClicks. They are fun and most of them have ways for you to earn AVP with every game.
The next way is with Price Bender Auctions. you earn 1 AVP with every bid. The thrill you get from winning an auction is also a great feeling.

There are limitless opportunities to warn with SFI, Every affiliate will find

This is one of the best questions i have been asked my many of my PSA's and my response while always individual usually consists of...

I personally use Google adwords and Bing advertising as my main source of advertising for PSA sign ups. These ads are a great way to target people who are genuinely interested in growing an online income and this results in some of my most active sign ups.

The ads direct potential affiliates to my website where they can read about the opportunity

How do I convince new PSAs that purchasing a NMP (New Member Pack) is a smart business move?

This is a great question. It is one that we all have come across at some point in our team building.

I think the whole point is not to make the PSA's think they have to make the purchase. Just remind them of the benefits, The biggest of which is the bonus 10% VP every month for the life of their SFI business. Its not just something to help them start but it will help them for years to come.

I tell my PSA's that the NMP is a great way to show the SFI community that you are serious

Remember, Many affiliates join SFI and have a look before deciding SFI isn't for them.

You just have to think of what made you active when you first joined SFI? and what has kept you going all this time?
Its just explaining what you think the benefits of SFI are and how they can help the new PSA's.

A lot of new sign ups may be overwhelmed by all the information they are receiving from the SFI welcome committee so just help them understand the key points and remind them

I just created a league for Gold Streak. What would be some good text to include with the invitation link?

In my opinion the best thing to share with the invitation link is just to remind the invitee that the League is just a fun little competition that keeps everyone involved and communication in a fun and exciting way.

Remind them that it will not cost them anything and they have the change to have bragging rights for the league.
