Well this is certainly a very interesting and profound question and my take on why it is indeed wise to offer some reward / incentives or some of you here may regard it as a bribe when it is used in the right way or intention and perspective it can go a long way and will not come back anytime to bite you and not turn too good to the giver that is you.

Here you go on my input:

I guess when you offer incentives like gift certificates or Tcredits position as a contest or reward

Well I would say that an affiliate should be setting specific long term goals according to their own specific aspirations and expectations :An excellent example to model after has already been provided here by SFI - https://www.sfimg.com/Home?tab=goals

As we all know that Setting goals and reviewing them regularly is critical and an integral part for becoming successful.
In closing I would like to quote what the late Zig Ziglar once said

well I guess if you have been building up rapport and establish relationship via your weekly Team Mail,A2 Messaging etc and sharing with them some tips ,insights and say free advertising sites and so on then it would not be too difficult.
However as it takes 2 hands to clap they also have to bite the cherry and reciprocrate what I do is to continue to email them as you never know when they will become keen or rekindle their interest.

well I would say that as A2Friends are also fellow SFI affilaites I would say that since we are independent business builders who more or less operate on the same platforms to expand and build our earnings with SFI it would not be too difficult to offer positive support and assistance to one another as depicted in our Ask SC Forums and all where seinor and more experienced members are most keen to offer and share their insights ,tips and inspirational messages too.

Well I would reexamine and scrutinize carefully all my advertising promotions and sponsoring activities and print out all the activities done and thereafter check out what brings me results and what don't that is the long and short of it is by tracking my advertising campaigns say on CraigLists and having say post to 50 US cities and after analysis found that only 5 bring me the results and certain text works best I would go focus re- posting the ads there And keep fine tuning and tweaking all

Well to me some of the better ways to hold OFFLine classes or seminars to train your PSAs about what SFI and TripleClicks is all about ? :

Well some venues for a start assuming that we will be starting off with small groups like either 1 or 3 to 4 I would arrange to meet at an convenient and yet quiet corner in a cafe or coffee house to share from your laptop or IPad with some keynotes printout summary for takeaway and reinforcement and when the group grows we can either arrange to meet
