W3 program is designed to provide incentives to TC members for spreading the word about TripleClicks. Being clear about the “points of referral”, an important element in promoting the W3 program is the key. If you’re planning your W3 promotional campaign make sure that you appropriately include the POR (Points of Referral) found on all TC product details pages, all ECA TConnect pages, all Auction Details pages, Eager Zebra “game over” recap pages, TC Music Player, etc.

Here are ways to promote W3:

- When promoting W3 through social media, you need to bear in mind that it’s all about engaging the right audiences with valuable content. The online community has little tolerance for self-promoters who view social media as a means to free advertising. You need to strike a balance in using social media to engage and promote W3 to be effective.

- Ask conversation-starter questions – most people enjoy sharing their opinions, you can ask your Facebook friends to weigh in on topics that are relevant to TripleClicks products/services and interesting to them. For example, you can ask their opinion the relevance of taking vitamin supplements to promote robust health. Provide the TC link (POR) to those who are interested. The questions should engage fans and inspire them to refer TC to their friends and relatives.
You can use the same strategy with the Pricebenders auction, EZ games, etc. with their corresponding PORs.

- Invite your friends to play the EZ games. Most people like to engage in playing games and are thrilled with the challenges and the live interactions with others. Make sure you’ve been participating in the EZ games creating “Friend Challenge” link and also be able to explain clearly the particular EZ game mechanics.

- Provide value - While including fun posts that reflect your personality is a must, it’s important to create content that benefits your followers. It could mean posting tips on best practices, or offering TC Deal of the Day, Hot Deals, and Closeouts on products/services.

Conclusion:

To be effective in promoting W3 you need to engage people with their interests.

Promotion and engagement are really two sides of the same coin. Engagement is rooted in consistently sharing insight and providing value every time you connect with your prospect/customer. This establishes credibility while building trust and inspiring prospects/customers to tell their friends about you. Promotion extends your engagement efforts by presenting a valuable offer that’s based on your prospects’/customers’ interests and needs. Social media amplifies your efforts so you can be found and engage a wider audience to grow your TC network.

The reason I joined SFI is not only to improve my living standard but being able to make a difference and impact other people’s lives. I believe that the entire network marketing industry is poised for explosive growth and can be one of the most significant solutions to every country’s current retirement savings crisis.

The increasing numbers of baby boomers are disenchanted with their current careers. They’re worn-out from years of the corporate grind and don’t feel the connection between their job and the people it impacts outside their office walls or company grounds. They have a desire to be a part of something bigger and better… to have a positive effect on others… and working in retirement. This is a perfect situation for me to offer a helping hand through SFI. I would like them to be a part in impacting that change in their lives to see again a positive outlook of life, something to look forward to everyday by making them feel being a part of SFI family wherever they are. This one purpose has made a big change in my life.

Many people don’t realize that SFI is one of the most successful network marketing companies in the world today. It provides the means to help people satisfy a number of important human needs, including feeling significant, having connections, learning something new, and making a difference. SFI Forum is the place to see all these becoming into reality. I have heard people say again and again, ‘I’m doing this because I’m meeting amazing people … making so many connections … and I feel so good about myself.’” For most people SFI has created a sense of belonging and impacted their lives.

Besides my current job, I work hard with my SFI business every day. It’s rewarding because I found through my day to day engagement with my SFI business the difference in how I look about life. I feel very much connected to SFI community. I love helping other people starting their own SFI businesses.

To sum it up:

I’m a strong believer in having more than one stream of income. That’s why I have been in SFI since 2002. It allows me to stay home, work from home, and help others do the same thing. I do cherish the following invaluable benefits of having my own SFI business:

- You get to be your own boss – there is nobody there to tell you when or where to work. That was one of the things that attracted me to SFI because I knew I could be in control of my own income.

- You have flexibility – When you are your own boss, you are able to work as much or as little as you want. Lots of people build a business in their spare time or on the weekends. Some people work very part time because they are only interested in earning a little extra income. Then, there are those who are committed to being a professional network marketer and earning an unlimited income working from the comfort of their home. With SFI, the choice is yours!

- You can be a Team Leader – I love to inspire others. SFI allows you the freedom to lead the way, and lock arms with those who wish to pursue financial, time and life freedom also.

- It’s simple to build – Don’t get me wrong, it’s simple…but not necessarily easy. Thanks to the power of the Internet, you can run your SFI business virtually. You don’t have to “hit the pavement” or have one-on-one meetings to grow. This is still a people business. However, with technology it has become so much easier to connect with people globally!

- You learn how to develop as an entrepreneur – In SFI, the atmosphere and the attitude of people through SFI Forum (the readiness to help one another) are very much encouraging which lead to building people strong spiritually and mentally. When you begin to learn how to think differently and understand what it takes to be successful, you start to manifest abundance in your life. Naturally, it spills over into your SFI business.

Your question can be divided into three parts for clarity:

1. How can we help our team members benefit from the W3 program?

Explain to your team members clearly the benefit of W3 membership by directing them to the new W3 central info page:

https://www.tripleclicks.com/Wave3/Wave3

You can also provide the specific link mentioning the benefits of W3 membership by going to this page:

http://news.sfimg.com

Make sure that they understand that there is something they need to do to qualify for W3 membership i.e. referring a new TC member every 120 days.

Explaining to them clearly the benefits and how to qualify for the W3 membership will lead you to the second question: how are you going to help them?

2. In what way are we going to help our team members if they are new to using the Internet?

- Direct them to the Marketing Center to familiarize themselves about the marketing methods.

- Discuss each marketing method with them and let them know that you’re available for whatever questions they may have.

- Do a review of the topic that you’ve covered so far before going to the next one.

- Share your experience to them in applying what you’ve learned from the Marketing Center.

3. And how to help them promote the W3 program without using the social media platform?

Their best option without using the social media is focusing on the traditional methods of advertising.

Methods of traditional marketing can include print advertisements, such as newsletters, billboards, flyers and newspaper print ads, wearable TC shirt, etc.

- Encourage them to do a review of the application of traditional marketing methods from the Marketing Center before launching their promotional campaign of the W3 program to their warm market.

- Give them your reassurance that you’re always available for full support.

- Give them tips of how to best approach their friends and family:

Use the friends and family as more of referrals source. How it works: Call them and let them know you’ve started a business and why.

From there ask them if you can put them on your email list so that they can stay up-to-date with your progress and if they can think of anybody now or while reading a follow-up email who are would like to have additional 5% discount/month on any one day’s Deal-of-the-Day TC products of their choice each month and more while not taking away from what they are currently doing.

This does two things…it prevents you from sounding like a hyped up sales person and secondly, when you ask if they know someone else who want to make extra money (have a specific dollar value), they will think…”well why aren’t you asking me if I want to?”

People get curious when something is not directly offered to them and by going this route…you’ve aroused their interest and most likely will raise their hand…if not, at least they are on your email follow up and when the time is right, they ask for more info or refer you to someone. As a result, you have the opportunity to nurture every lead.

Here are some ideas for promoting TC products during the big, upcoming holidays and gift giving season:

- Log in to TripleClicks and search for the products you would like to promote. Pay particular attention to products for online shoppers that are in a rush to find ready-made unique items as gifts to their loved ones.

- Since the theme is big, upcoming holidays and gift giving season, you’ll need to consider pre-package best-selling items ready for gifting in beautifully designed cases, gift wrap, and boxes. The key here is to make sure the packaging is exciting enough for the shopper to want to give as a gift.

- Make a holiday video of your favorite TC products.

An eye-catching video can make your brand stand out from the crowd. A small budget and a creative mind can go a long way when promoting your TC products, so if your video is distinctly humorous or clever enough and aligns with your brand you can have a recipe for a heavily-shared video to promote using social media. Focus on the idea that you are trying to convey along with relevancy to your audience, and the video will present itself perfectly.

- Promote TC products through blogging.

Refresh your blog site’s appearance with festive visuals to reflect the holiday season. Even small cosmetic changes like changing the colors of text and background, creative copywriting, or uploading holiday themed pictures can make a big impact on your visitors. Make sure your blog site content is up-to-date as well, advertising your latest TC products that you’re promoting.

An effective approach to blogging this coming holiday season is to post content that will solve your prospective customer’s problems. How can your blogging help non- TC customers? During this coming holiday season, prospective customers are online, searching for gift ideas for their friends, family, and acquaintances. Write articles for gifts ideas, create gift lists, or inform your prospective customers about the trendy gift that’s on everyone’s wish list this year. Which one of the TC products that you’re going to promote will make a great gift for a significant other? Which one would grandma like? Not only will your blogging content provide information and value to your website visitors, it’ll also help you promote your TC products.

- Promote TC products by purchasing your gifts from TripleClicks.

The wide selection of TC products, allows you to find gifts for your friends and family. Purchase your gift items from TripleClicks on time for the holiday season and do the gift-wrapping work for them. Be sure to include TC Gift Cards on your gifts. You should consider being creative in packaging your gifts. The fact is, product packaging has a strong influence on how we feel about products, and should be valued even more strongly during the holiday season. This will create a good impression about TC products and your brand.

SFI basically offers a chance to ditch your 9-5 work schedule, be your own boss, and make lots of money while making new friends in the process.

There are two aspects that need to be addressed in order to answer your question:

- When you should start preparing for your retirement from SFI?

- How to prepare for your retirement from SFI?

1. When you should start preparing for your retirement from SFI?

You must start preparing for your retirement from SFI now by building a sound retirement plan that you can rely upon. To give you an idea what you need to consider in your retirement plan is to think about what your dreams are and believe that you can do anything your heart desires.

Your goal may not be to build a multi-million dollar income in SFI, but how about producing an extra $500 or $1000 dollar a month? What would your life be like in 10 or 20 years if you took that extra money today and invested it well? So it really make sense to start now building your retirement to enable you to regain control over your life.

2. How to prepare for your retirement from SFI?

- You need to ensure that you're committed in keeping the core business principles of SFI BASICS, such as maintaining your EA2 status, etc. It is crucial to the success of your SFI business to maintain your EA2 status, which enables you to move up to TL rank giving you more benefits in terms of perks and commissions.

- Sponsoring new affiliates based upon your long term goal.

In SFI, the contribution to your success is people – not just the people who may be interested in SFI/TC products, but also the people with whom you work - you're in the people business.

- Training and supporting your affiliates especially your movers as long as needed to ensure that you're taking advantage of the duplication process. You need to set the highest attainable goal to achieve monthly residual income by building your DTLs, PTLs, etc. in your downline.

The mentality of many frustrated and unsuccessful sponsors is, why aren't the newly sponsored affiliates producing for me? What's the matter with them?

In order to succeed with SFI and plan your retirement effectively, you must flip that mentality to “I sponsored these new affiliates, therefore, I'm responsible for providing them with the information in a timely manner, tips, support and encouragement they need to grow as persons and prosper their SFI business at the same time.” You must commit to training and supporting your downline as long as needed to become successful in SFI.

SFI has shaped me both personally and spiritually. It helped me develop my life skills and made me take a look at who I really am and where I really wanted to go in life as I look in the future for my retirement.

The TCredits Welcome (TW) and Cash Welcome (CW) could be both effective in getting the attention of your new PSAs to become active. Both could be excellent tools in initiating the momentum that will lead to substantial amount of activities in your organization. To answer your question which of the two is better and why, find below the effectiveness of each tool:

To maximize the potential effectiveness of TW, do the following steps:

- When you sign up to TW program, your new PSAs will be presented with your TCredits gift and a screen will appear at the instant your new PSA has submitted his or her registration to join your team. Immediately get in touch with him/her through SFIM and let them know how you can be of help.

- Be prepared to explain to them how they can use the TCredits in a clear and concise manner. First of all they may not be familiar about TCredits and they may not remember what they have read on the screen.

- Give them a short introduction and clear orientation about some of the key elements of SFI by walking them through the Eager Zebra games, Pricebenders auction, TC music download, etc. This is very important while they are at their highest interest level of getting a firsthand look on SFI.

- TCredits may not be as popular as cash but the bottom line here is being able to follow up immediately as soon as your new PSA accepted your TW gift. Using SFI Instant Messaging, you can get in touch with those accepting the offer to enlighten them and maximize impact.

“Getting people STARTED is the key. People that get started and get engaged with the system are about 20 times more likely to stay engaged and become active SFI affiliates.”

You’ll be able to find out about your ROI through TW tab and through your Genealogy using the new filter "Rec'd TCredits Welcome" You can make comparison between those who received TW gift versus those who didn’t in all aspects of your SFI business.

To maximize the potential effectiveness of CW, do the following steps:

- When you sign up to CW program, your new PSAs will be presented with your Cash Welcome gift and a screen will appear at the instant your new PSA has submitted his or her registration to join your team. Immediately get in touch with him/her through SFIM and let them know how you can be of help.

- Use this opportunity to get their attention in getting them started right and pointing them to the right direction where to begin. SFI research indicates that many people sign up using secondary email accounts they rarely if ever check. And many ISPs inadvertently/wrongly send SFI emails to junk folders where they'll likely never be seen. So having a direct chat with your PSAs may prove to be of great advantage.

- While you have their attention, you can enlighten them about any aspects of growing your SFI business and be able to clear up some misconceptions about SFI that might be stopping them from becoming active. This is a great opportunity to start building relationship with them.

The TCredits and Cash Welcome are designed to re-awaken new PSAs to become active. TW is geared towards PSAs who are inclined to play online games, participate in bidding, etc. CW is excellent for re-engaging your new PSAs converting them into your movers. When you offer those TCredits or Cash Welcome, you’re expressing your strong interest in their growth. Only you can answer which one do you prefer (better) based on your experience.

You want to use the TC Gift Cards to attract and sign up your prospects as TC members (PRMs) as well as new affiliates (PSAs)?

Here are important points that you might want to consider when doing your promotional campaign:

Aim - What is the primary purpose of your marketing campaign? Are you trying to promote SFI and TripleClicks using the TC Gift Cards?

Target - Who is the target? Are you targeting avid auction bidders, online shoppers, bargain hunters, etc.? Or are you targeting people who are interested in home based business opportunity? From which sector of the public are you trying to achieve a response?

These are questions that you need to clarify. Many new SFI business owners resist the idea of defining a target market because they want to be able to “sell to everyone”.

They might feel that such a definition would limit their audience, and they want their business offer, product or service to be available to the broadest market possible. They don't want to reduce the number of potential customers/prospects that might sign up.

Before you start your campaign using TC Gift Cards as your promotion tool you need to understand clearly the primary purpose of the TC Gift Cards. TC Gift Cards are for attracting new TC members.

Giving away TC Gift Cards and SFI X-Cards at the same time to your prospects might confuse them. SFI has provided promotional tools specifically designed for marketing SFI and for TripleClicks. It is in your best interest to use them to what they are intended for.

Trying to make your SFI business to appeal to broadest market possible is one of the very first, fundamental mistakes that an SFI entrepreneur can make. In fact, the exact opposite is true. When you define your target audience correctly and precisely, you focus your marketing efforts on the people who are most likely to respond to your offer, buy your product, and therefore using your valuable resources in the best way possible.

Perhaps, you might stand a better chance of getting your prospects excited about SFI, if you give away your TC Gift Cards to your targeted market and include your personal business card containing your contact information, which include your website/blog with an eye-catching domain name such as Yourname.profitsonline.com, etc.

To answer your question, you’ll need to think of the ways how you can translate good listening skills being face to face with a person to your virtual (online) environment i.e. in connection with your SFI business.

A good listener is often more important than speaking. It gives a deeper level of understanding about someone’s situation, and helps to know what words are best to use and what words should be avoided.

Whether you’re interacting with prospects, your downline or with individuals in SFI Forum, how can you be a good listener?

- Grasp and understand the matter/content.

Listening requires some effort. You must first choose to concentrate, and then, the brain has to process this information to add contextual meaning. During active listening, your mind focuses on the information just received and process it accordingly; this is when truly amazing learning experiences take shape. This also explains why active listening is not just listening to what is being said, but also absorbing it. It involves focusing on the subject matter, processing it, and comprehending the concepts.

- Include a summary at the end of every conversation.

Providing a summary at end of every conversation is one of the most effective ways to encourage active listening among your downline. This is extremely important when sending them your support messages, providing them with a summary at the end of each support message gives them a quick overview of the main takeaways, so that they can focus directly on what they need to know and trigger their active “listening” abilities.

- Link subject matter to previously knowledge.

You can include test questions that encourage your downline to access previously learned knowledge so that they can create that all-important connection with the current subject matter that you’re discussing with them. For example, when you have previously discussed to them the topic of (what and how) sponsoring, before introducing them to team building and duplication (the why of sponsoring), test their memory skills what they have learned and understand about sponsoring.

When they are able to associate new concepts to what they already know they are more likely to actively listen, as they are already familiar with the subject matter and the new information sounds more meaningful to them.

- Responding appropriately

Responding appropriately is of utmost importance, especially when online discussions take place. Don’t just jump in to the discussions without giving much thought of how you can best respond to the subject matter. Follow the thread by reading thoroughly and understanding the content of all parties involved in the discussions. Be honest and open in your response, always try to stay focused on the subject; sometimes it is easy to stray away from the topic, so keep your questions and comments relevant.

Conclusion:

The way we listen can have a major impact not only on our personal relationships, but also on our professional relationships with our downline and to others in the SFI community. A good listener has the ability to better understand and process information; a great listener has the ability to use information to negotiate, influence, and avoid misunderstandings and conflicts.

Having active listening skills means that you are able to communicate effectively and create deeper connections with others.
