The best way to attract visitors to any page is to advertise it. You have to promote any site on the web in order to have consistent visitors. There are 1001 ways to do it for free. None of them work until you use them. You can not get traffic without advertising.
You can not make people buy what they do not need.

The goal of advertising is to help the visitor in the buying process. Help them to understand why what you are offering will be able to help them. Getting traffic

You can not make anyone use your cards. You have the gift card tracker that tells you when the codes have been redeemed. If a card is not redeemed in a certain period of time you can issue that code to another person. Gift cards never expire so you don't lose them. The code is in the tracking report and can be assigned to someone else.

I use online promotions to distribute gift cards. You have to be careful about current members asking you for cards! So if a person requests for

SFI has great ways to communicate with your team, but am I missing out by not using outside resources too like email, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, etc.?

If you fail to use other resources to communicate with your team, you may not be missing out on much. Your affiliates can contact you while you are online in the business center. There isn't a need to allow your business to invade your personal life. Everyone needs boundaries. So when you are online, that is the time to communicate.

On the contrary, being accessible on the fly may be something that you like. Then you can implement all of the resources you can handle. SFI mail

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

I can understand that it can be difficult to measure your progress in SFI. Let me just say that what you should not do is any of the following:

1. Expect overnight success.
2. Don't compare your progress to anyone. Everybody's situation is different. We all come from different backgrounds.
3. Never quit learning and improving your business.

What should you do to measure your success?
1. Are your doing everything you can to grow your business?

My approach to these prospects is to focus of the simple 3 step plan. I reassure them that I have been in SFI for many years, and my upline has been in SFI even longer. I let them know that SFI is a solid opportunity and has been around for over 15 years. I give them step by step instructions that a 8th grader can follow.

Don't over complicate anything about SFI. Let your prospects know that you will walk them through each phase that they must go through. Give them your personal

There are many ways to do this and some just Spin & Win 1000 AVP! Nonetheless, you can simply plan to earn those 1000 AVP from building a network of active affiliates. Just because you don't have active members now, doesn't mean that you can't get them. Don't sell yourself short. Beef up your marketing strategy and sponsor about 100 PSAs. Of those 10 are likely to become EA. Depending on

Getting your TripleClicks gateways to generate sales is a matter of knowing where to advertise and keeping your advertising consistent. A thorough understanding of how search engine traffic works is important. To gain this knowledge, one must actively promote and track your ads for performance. Getting traffic is one thing, but getting sales is a horse of a different color.

Too many affiliates think that just because they post a few banners, 5 links, some text ads and send a few

To engage your SFI affiliates on social media sites like Facebook you should start a group and create a fan page. I have both. I try to interact with my constituents at a few times per week. With a heavy work load, this can be challenging to say the least. Never the less to maximize your social media experience you should post as often as you can and avoid posting only affiliate links. Remember that social media sites are first of all social.

What are the best ways to use printed flyers to attract PSAs/PRMs/ECAs?

The best way to use printed flyers is to place them on community bulletin boards. You can find them at some stores and you should talk with a member of management before you place your flyer on the bulletin board. Stores don't want to create clutter nor promote for their competition. So speak with a manager and assure them that what you offer does not conflict with the store's brands. Skipping this step can get you in hot water and at the least your flyer will wind up in the trash can.
