My biggest challenge was joining in the first place! I had tried several online businesses in recent years, trying to create a home-based income. I spent a lot of money and time, only to be disappointed when you just get started, and now you have to pay to be part of a group for good training, you MUST have an auto-ship order to maintain your status, etc.

I sent several question-filled emails to my referrer, finally decided, one more time, to try an online business.

Your best action would be to check all you have done to help your PSAs. If you are confident that you have truly given them the best leadership you can, do not concern yourself with their opinion overmuch. I would suggest you ask them in a friendly tone (using email or some such that will remain private for them) what you could do to be more helpful to them. It is possible you might have missed something that would have helped them better. If they have no good answer or suggestion for you, continue

What is the best way to present the idea of TripleClicks TCredits to someone who has never heard of them?

Simply explain to them that TCredits are like "money" in TripleClicks. They can be purchased (or won in auctions)from TripleClicks and used to buy products, or bid in auctions. Auctions for brand new products at majorly less expensive prices, or for more TCredits. Or P/CSAs if they're TripleClicks members.

If they are interested in joining TripleClicks, enough TCredits can pay for their standing order; allow them to list items for sale (as in garage sale)at their Tconnect page;

Other than the obvious Standing Order for at least 1500 VP? :))

Do all the daily, weekly, monthly tasks, play Pick the Price and T-Time to gain TCs you can use to bid auctions for VPs.

Try for a standing order carrying at least 1000VPs, you should be able to do all tasks, finish up by auction bids, preferably something you want in case you do win!!

Hope this gives information gives you ideas:)...

If you could completely start over with SFI today, knowing what you know now, what would you do differently?

I would now know about the Fast Tracker badge, would make sure I qualified for it!!

I would calculate how many daily task VPs I would get for completing entry month, then do startup tasks that would bring me up to 1500 to 1550VPs for EA. I would join a2a and Wave3.

Second month, I would do balance of start up activities, gain daily activity VPs, bid auctions, any other activities to reach EA2.

During this time, I would study LaunchPad lessons, and all the information/training

Brand new affiliates ("newbies") should NOT fly through the To-do list like a buzz saw!!

When you do that, not a whole lot of what you read in order to gain the VPs quickly will stick in your mind. It IS wise to "buzz" hard enough to gain that all-important first 500 VPs in order to be rewarded with another 200VP for doing so. (And the nifty "Fast Tracker" badge that will be permanently displayed on your pages!:D) That gives the newbie an excellent start on

A basic aversion to quitting!! I am a positive-thinking person, and I hate to quit anything I have started!

I started off a little slow, was mostly unable to access my computer between Thanksgiving and Christmas, so mostly started over on the VersaPoints Streak. It has become important to me to make the 365 badge to make a point to myself. And also to be able to tell others "...if I can, trust me, SO CAN YOU!!".

I have a small team, only a few of my CSAs are active

Which is more effective--distributing TCards online or in person?

I believe online would be better. When sending them, advise recipient first that you are sending it, and procedures to implement them. This way, they will be watching for its arrival, won't overlook it, or accidentally delete it.

It's pretty hard to lose an online card, and easier to use it when it's already online, easier to use.

Face to face gives a person opportunity to pass on the receiving, whereas if you online it, they are more likely to make use of it, since it's

Hope my humble opinion will help someone...

I would say you should first decide what you want to accomplish: more PSAs, ECAs, or PRMs for TripleClicks. Or something else.

Then, think about yourself - likes, dislikes - when it comes to advertising or recruiting. What are your strong points, weak points. (Be honest in your exam; no one is going to know your results unless you tell them. :D )

Know how much time &/or money you have/need to spend.
