Each Team Mail that I send has a reminder and a Thank You! for submitting SFI and Sponsor ratings. I also explain that this is a way for me to know what kind of job I am doing as well as an easy way to earn 10vp each month!

I usually do a months end newsletter suggesting things that need to be done before the end of the month and how to make the new month happen for them.

Many times if the forum with 5 days left I see many asking how to get 1500 VP before the end of the month. Some only nee 50 or 100 VP. Could you see missing your EA status by 10 VP because you failed to rate your sponsor?

Be attentive to your PSAs & CSAs, however busy you may be.
Extend every possible assistance to them in their way to success. Remind them of their goal and encourage them to earn more & more.
I always include a reminder saying "Thank You! for submitting SFI and Sponsor ratings".

I include a reminder of submitting the sponsor rating in the first team mail message of the month and include thanks for the same in the second one.
I explain them that it is the way I can know how well I am responsible towards my affiliates and also an easy way to earn 10VPs for them.
I ask them to do so as it helps in judging myself and also if there is any chance of improvement in my attitude towards them.

As a Team Leader, you should know the followings

? Sponsor rating is ranking of a sponsor's effectiveness and performance by their personally sponsored affiliates. Each month, PSAs are asked to anonymously rate their sponsors. The responses are combined to produce an average rating or score for each SFI Sponsor. Those sponsors who have garnered the best ratings to date appear in the Top Sponsor Leader board. NOTE: A minimum of FIVE ratings is required to appear on the leader board.

? Every SFI affiliate will become a Team Leader one day (Only by fulfilling the requests, follow the steps & qualify) and Sponsor Rating will give a clear indication about the kind of support that you as a Team leader is giving to His/Her down lines as a Team leader.

? You must also tell them that, Once a SFI affiliate become a Team Leader, Its very important as a Team Leader to maintain His/Her Leadership Page and a minimum 3-star sponsor rating (not applicable if TLs have less than 5 ratings) from PSAs.

? Sponsor rating can be found under TO-DO LIST and must be completed by every SFI member as a MONTHLY ACTION. By doing so He/She will get 10 free VP’s to the monthly total Versa Points.

? Make sure that you are rating your sponsor monthly.

? Then you must duplicate this understanding to your down lines as you do.(Duplication)-Refers to affiliates in your organization "duplicating" your actions, such as sponsoring new affiliates, making sales, mentoring prospective leaders, etc. If you can achieve a high degree of "duplication" in your organization, you can "be in a hundred places at one time" and able to grow your business rapidly through the efforts of others.


? NB: Be willing to accept the rating and find a way to improve you assistance to you down lines and gain higher star rating by doing so. Never be angry or ignore a poor rating from a down line.

In this way your team will be encouraged to do the sponsor rating.

I started this answer earlier, and in the process thought of a better way. In the past I waited until the third or fourth week in the month to start working with my members to get their VP up. As I was writing, I realized that the best way would be to start at the first of the month doing the following:

1. Checking if they are logging in, if not send an email of encouragement.
2. If they are logging in, check their VP ledger and see how they are doing it.
3. Write them an email letting them know where they are missing VP's that would get them to EA.
4. In the very first email, you would mention the 10 points earned for reviewing their sponsor. Along with any other points you see they are missing. Let them know that this is in the monthly section of their ToDo list.

Doing the ledger checking daily or every other day routinely and writing to your downline from the first of the month would not only get them to review you, but would increase their VP so much as to be a great motivator. I have several pilot emails that do this very well, and have been successful. You can't just copy and paste, but it is faster to copy and paste, then revise to meet the PSA's specific needs. After a few days you can usually stop writing them as much, as you see them improving in getting every VP they possibly can.

I have received so much feedback from my downline that the most valuable help to them is checking their VP ledger. I tell them in my welcome letter that I will do this to help them earn more money from SFI, and not to criticize how they are doing. That I consider doing this is being there for them and interested in THEIR prosperity.

I recommend just asking them to. There's no magic involved in that.
They're people just like you and we all have free will. So if they
will they will, and if they won't there's not a lot we can do to
make them. Just offer your help, and those who are serious will accept
it and those who aren't will be off already and on to the next big thing.

Someone helped me years ago by sharing this truth with me. There is only
one person you can change and that's you. Work on yourself and your own
habits, and as you become who you want to be you will begin to attract
like minded people.

Don't get depressed or think you're not doing right by not getting lots
of ratings. I only get one, and it's the same person every month.

I communicate with my downline on a regular basis, although I do not directly tell them to submit the sponsor rating form. But for those who have not submitted, I send them a message asking, "Do they find my support useful?" If not, what kind of help do they need? I motivate them to ask anything without hesitation. I noticed many of them fill the form within a couple of days after the message, also providing a good star rating.

First and foremost, I keep communication llines open and encourage them to go to their To-Do List for any guidance they need on gaining points. I remind them during the month that they need to submit their rating for SFI and their sponsors. I show them that I appreciate them for a job well done and congratulate them for gaining whatever status they have achieved. It is always good to thank people for what they do, whether in business or otherwise.
