Some PSAs are fast learners and others are slow. You can't give the fast learners too much information and you will definitely choke those that take their time to digest information. So how do you balance? Treat all of your PSAs as if they were totally new to marketing online. Make it plain and simple. Then when they ask you for more and some will then give them more a little at a time. It's akin to spoon feeding. The baby will let you know when they want more!

The analogy is

Ask your PSA's what they need at the moment in their business.

You're sensitivity to information overload is appreciated as with any new venture without prior experience, owning a business can be overwhelming.

Let your PSA's direct you so that you can help them to the best of your abilities.

Customization of service support for PSA's is important so find out what topics are of interest and use that in your weekly TeamMail for all as more than one PSA may have the

What you should do to speed up PSA without overwhelming them is this.

Upon been assigned to you, first welcome them indicating you are there co.sponsor
If they need any assistance you will be glad to help.
However, explain all the bases of SFI to them letting them understand what is uptainable.

Build solid team relationships to develop your PSAs:

You must communicate & take the time to explain your business model to your PSAs & see how well they align to yours.

You have to keep your PSAs encouraged all the time. Post newsletters frequently, share success stories, revise marketing materials, create an award system to acknowledge the successful ones & make them feel proud of being a part of your team.

One of the biggest misperceptions in the world

Firstly you can get your PSA's working my following up on them daily via mail to motivate them that their effort / hardworking is been noticed and recognized, which will enable them to qualify for the leadership rank. After all, our aim for working hard is to earn income and become a leader.
Secondly, you can also encourage any hardworking PSA's by giving them a free Tcredits from your as a price for hardwork and effort. Sometime some PSA's wants to participate in the daiky draw eg auction,games,selling

Try sharing little blurbs here and there with your new PSAs. Information overload can cause new affiliates to crash and burn mentally and give up on SFI entirely.

Put together a small, albeit informative newsletter to pique their interests, too. Don't make it too wordy; most people have an "off" switch in their brain that they flip reading a bunch of jargon and legalese.

These might be some good ways for your new PSAs to keep abreast of the goings-on at SFI.

Interesting question.

I think that there is no proven formula for the outcome that you want to achieve. Every human being is a story in itself, so this is what you should hold on. But you can always use some conditions, to find out who are PSA which have the highest chance of success in this business.

Such as :

1. Whether you are contacted regularly by them?
2. What is the essence of the questions that they ask you? ...etc.

This will give you information

I firmly believe your welcome letter should only contain a welcome,where to find their
gateways/links, and where home and v.p. ledger are located.

Getting lost and feeling overwhelmed are a new persons first concerns.
Let them know they need 1500 v.p. this month and next if you see they are
going great guns.

Check on them the next day and go through their v.p. ledger.
The e-card is on the top right.Great place so you can make it friendly.
