It really depends on whether or not the affiliate has a product or products that are worth opening up an ECA store for and / or the commitment to truly make a success of the venture. For instance, there is absolutely no point in an affiliate having an ECA store if they're not going to be bothered

a) providing good customer service
b) keeping their inventory up to date
c) keeping their 'shelves' stocked
d) tracking what does and doesn't sell and ditching non-viable products

The ECA program is one of various ways to earn income as an SFI affiliate, so it is good for affiliates who have the potentials or wherewithal to engage in it. It is very important to have the capacity and requisite skills in order to provide satisfactory services; before, during and after sales to customers, so that the competitiveness and integrity of The ECA program will be at acceptable business levels.

The ECA program is very attractive because participants may not necessarily incur

Yes absolutely. The ECA program is another opportunity of earning extra income besides having your own SFI business.

What’s good about it?

- You can create a product of your own or sell your unwanted stuff to be listed at TripleClicks.

- SFI affiliates can promote your products to increase your commissions or connect with other ECAs.

- You can potentially maximize your income by creating your niche (defining your target market) for your products.

Yes, it is good for affiliates to have their own ECA store at TripleClicks because:

1. It serves as example to your downline. If you have a successful ECA at TripleClicks it encourages your downline to do the same. Imagine most of your PSA putting up good stores at TripleClicks; such a great overall benefit to the entire team.

2. It enhances your ability to refer more ECA yourself as you are able to convince them better than if you don't own a store at TripleClicks.

It is good but not always necessary.

I believe it is more important to grow the TC portal base by recruiting small businesses and existing business people to become ECA.

There are a number reasons why not to consider becoming an ECA just for the sake of it. Like say you think you can list items or sell new items online for a profit?

That will take skill and added expense with little pay off.

Cons
1. You need experience to be an ECA, selling online

Personally I think it is. Becoming an ECA is another income stream in SFI. But make sure you understand and have calculated what it takes to become an ECA.

If you do not currently have your own store (either online or physical store) then you need to register for a Seller License which cost 40 USD. If you do have a store, then that Seller License is waived.

Then you need to start listing your items and make sure the price is competitive to ensure you can garner a lot of interest

There are multiple benefits to an affiliate having an ECA store at TripleClicks, *if* you have products to sell:

1) There are the direct sales,
2) plus Sales VP from those who shop there,
3) the ability to T-Connect increases audience for your business,
4) and the greater knowledge of what they're promoting when they recruit more ECAS.

That's just the top of my list. However, it still forces the affiliate to take the time to put together a store, list products

The straight answer to this question is YES. It is very good for affiliates to have their own ECA stores at TripleClicks if they want to take full advantage of the good business model that SFI represents. SFI itself envisaged it and therefore encourages affiliates to have their own stores by providing easy access and facilities to do so. As an affiliate, having your own store gives you the following benefits.

1. You can earn sales VP from what you sell in your store.

Yes absolutely.

This is one of the great things about SFI. Not only do you benefit from referring people to purchase products and services from TripleClicks, but you can also set up your own store. Sell your own products and earn more money.

If you already have your own physical store why not set up your own ECA store with TripleClicks. It’s free and you can promote your products online and to the many other TC members and SFI affiliates. They will also promote your products
