The new W3 program is one of the best ways to introduce people to TripleClicks and boost sales that will earn commission. Introducing TripleClicks members (PRMs) has the distinct benefit of having a repeat customer, especially if they are introduced to the PB auctions and the EZ games. Repeat TCredit sales have great VP and commission value.

With the new W3 program your PRMs will be encouraged to invite others to join TripleClicks, too, and you as the original PRM sponsor will benefit

Whether you have an active sponsor or not, you will benefit most by taking full responsibility for your SFI business. Active sponsors will certainly be of benefit to you. It is indeed good to receive helpful information and to get useful replies to your questions.

If you have an inactive sponsor, not taking full responsibility for your SFI business will get you nowhere. SFI provides everything you need to be successful. You can learn everything you need to know from SFI's training, and

There are two important strategies that when put into place will help new Affiliates starting up with SFI. The first strategy is gain as much knowledge as possible. The second strategy is put into action from the knowledge that was learned that will build the SFI business.

All new Affiliates are guided toward the main buttons on the Affiliate Center home page: START, SFI BASICS, and LAUNCHPAD. We urge our new Affiliates to go to those locations that will provide the basic knowledge that

When I am contacted with a disappointing message about rank, I always reply in this manner.

I truly understand how you feel. That has happened to me, too. Someone helped me, and I would like to help you, too. Nothing has really happened to you or your business. Your rank was showing you a level you had reached for a period of one month. Until we have established a growing business, it is quite common to have ups and down.

If we truly desire earning and keeping SFI Ranks, it

If I only have one hour a day to spend on SFI, what should I spend this limited time doing?

If you only have one hour a day to spend on SFI, your most important task is to advertise. We earn income from sales, and we earn income from PSAs and PRMs.

If you can have an advertising budget, it is a good idea to advertise so that you bring in about 100 PSAs each month. If you are promoting with free methods, a standing order of 1500 VP will allow you to spend most of your hour with traffic exchanges and email lists and still qualify for EA benefits.

Getting at least 10

I think the best way to train PSAs and CSAs is to point them to the excellent SFI Training tab. There anyone can find information on how to build a team and how to promote TripleClicks sales. Everything that we need to know is provided there.

Of course, most will have questions about what they read, so the second part of the training is to be there when the questions arise and answer each one as best as possible. We each have different circumstances, yet the SFI training has something

What is the best strategy for attracting younger people (age 21 - 35) to become active SFI affiliates?

I think the best strategy for attracting younger people, ages 21 to 35, to become active SFI Affiliates is to present SFI as an entrepreneurial opportunity. The founders of Google and Facebook were in that age category and it was their entrepreneurial spirit that made them successful.

The strategy, then, is to offer SFI as a way to build a solid business for the future. The message can go something like this:

When you join SFI, you will have all the tools you need to build a

What do you do about PSAs that start off great but then suddenly become completely inactive?

It is usually very difficult to find out why a PSA starts off great and then suddenly becomes completely inactive. The only way we kind find out is if they actually respond to a message we send to them. We could more easily help them if we knew why they became inactive.

So twice a month I go to my Genealogy and filter on the PSAs that have earned over 1000 VP but have not logged in during the past two weeks. I send them a team mail letting them know I noticed that they had not logged in

How do I promote the Signing Bonus and the opportunity to increase it to my new affiliates who have just received the $20 Signing Bonus?

I honestly think the best way to promote the Signing Bonus is to simply mention in your welcome email that SFI will be explaining about the Signing Bonus that they saw on the sign up page. Simply say that this is a benefit that gives a great boost to your beginning efforts to earn income.

Encourage them to look for SFI's helpful messages. And be sure to let them know that you will answer any questions and will be glad to help them be successful.

Here is a list of my favorite TripleClicks products:

1. The Natural Automatic Dishwashing GEL (and discovered using less is better!)
2. The Natural Laundry Detergent / Softener (clothes look and smell great)
3. HerbaGreen Original (liquid green tea, easy to prepare, tasty to drink)
4. Advanced Liquid Nutrition (good tasting and so good for you!)
5. PSAs to Go (a good advertising source)
6. TCredits (what else can I say?)

It is so great to get benefits
