How long should your PSAs and CSAs rely on your help will depend on the following points:

- As long as they don’t give up, it is your responsibility to help them, in regards to training and support in order to achieve their long term goal.

- As their Team Leader, you should have a clear definition of the help and support that correspond to your responsibility in making their journey with SFI a success.

- As their Team Leader, it is your responsibility to explain to your PSAs and CSAs that they are running their own SFI businesses.

- Your job is to help them succeed and realize the goals that they were looking to achieve when they joined in SFI. You’re not there to go out and do all of their work for them.

- You should spell out clearly to them that they’re building a long term SFI business and that you’re there to help them with their training as long as it needs to.

- You’re committed to help them understand, what it takes to establish a robust foundation, implement the process of duplication and help them to build and expand their network. You’ll make every effort to respond in their inquiries within 24 hours.

- You need to be clear to yourself and to communicate to them that growing their SFI business requires team effort and that’s why you’re providing them your full support to achieve their goals.

- You need to clearly understand and exhibit the mindset of being a builder for your SFI business and that it takes time to build a successful business.

- To clear out any misunderstanding, you need to know and communicate to your PSAs and CSAs that every affiliate who joined would own his/her SFI business: “It is my business, not my upline’s or my downline’s business and everything depends on me putting effort to succeed.”

- Analyze where you’re coming from and why you have asked the question “For how long should my PSAs and CSAs depend on me for help?” Are you feeling burdened or have fallen into “management mode?” This is a common trap that many network marketers find themselves in when they are focusing more on what their team is doing than on what they are doing themselves.

- If you train your PSAs and CSAs to depend on you by doing everything for them, you will never create the duplication and freedom you want.

- If you want to train your PSAs and CSAs effectively, remember your role is to help them get started right and to help them get their own SFI business going successfully.

My PSAs and CSAs can count on me for as long as I do my SFI business. As long as I remain as a member and in good standing, I will continually support them.

The Country/Region sub-forums were created as a subset of SFI Forum to help affiliates from other country/region whose primary language is not English.

- The sub-forum will enable Team Leader/Sponsor with his/her team members not only to maintain connection regularly but most especially share ideas, experiences/challenges in life and business for discussion, for finding and offering solutions in order to help them in their personal development and growth in regards to their SFI business. By doing this, he/she will begin to establish close relationship with his/her team members.

How will it affect his/her SFI business? It could mean more members will become active and as a result significant numbers of affiliates will appear in his/her Movers tab achieving EA, EA2, or even BTL in his/her team.

Conclusion:

As a Team Leader/Sponsor, you should remind your team members not to rely solely on the sub-forums for help in their SFI business, but rather encourage them to learn English, which is SFI official language. By doing so, they will become independent and truly entrepreneur. They’ll be able to join the SFI forum, gaining more knowledge through interaction with other affiliate members worldwide and perhaps form long lasting connections.

The best way to convince your new PSAs is backing your words with actions. Have you purchased the NMP, so that you can relate to them the benefits? If not then there is no point of pitching it to them.

When you talk about NMP to your new PSAs, you need to carefully consider how you’ll bring your message:

- NMP will make sense to them to purchase in their first 10 days after signing up and you need to remember that they might not fully grasp the significance of NMP since they have to deal with the .SFI concept first.

- Don’t just send a message encouraging all your new PSAs to purchase NMP. Make sure that they have understood SFI BASICS and LAUNCHPAD. By monitoring their progress through your Genealogy tab>Movers>VP Ledger you’ll be able to gauge the right time to give them tips about NMP

- When the time is right, share how NMP has impacted the development and growth of your SFI business.

- The impact of NMP to your SFI business would be clearly seen in the long term. NMP fulfill the second requirement of becoming a Fast-Track member and the first requirement they can easily meet by performing the five Fast-Track actions in the Getting Stared section of their To-Do List. You can best explain to them when they maintain their Fast-Track membership they’ll get 10% extra shares of the TC Executive Pool their total VP they earn including Matching VP every month.

- NMP’s great value is an excellent start-up of maintaining the Fast-Track membership. And once they see the benefit of maintaining a minimum of $20 USD in sales, maintaining the rank of EA and advance to the rank of TL, they’ll earn unlimited Matching VPs on all of their EA2s including their CSAs.

By taking into consideration the key points above and having strategy to present your messages about NMP, you’ll be able to help them see that it is indeed a smart move to purchase NMP right from the start.

To encourage your affiliates to get them active and stay active in a manner that wouldn’t make you sound selfish or dictator is by finding out what motivates them in joining SFI.

Instead of telling them all the time what to do and make them dependent on your instruction to move forward in their journey with SFI, you can get them active by doing the following:

- You can organize a contest in your Leadership page based on VersaPoints and award prizes such as TCredits for the most VP accumulated in a single month.

- You can offer Gift Certificate if they start sponsoring their own affiliates. Be creative and realistic in setting up the requirements (how many affiliates to sponsor per month?). This is another way of encouraging them to start doing their Training tab and Marketing tab; apply them and sponsor affiliates.

- You can also offer a share of your S-Builder co-op, if they become EA and maintain it.

- If they become Team Leader and maintain it, depending on your budget, you can sweeten the pot by adding affiliate reassignment and Gift Certificate.

- Other qualifications that you can bring up for contests and get them active are as follows:

1. Referring TC/W3 members

2. Top 300 in VP

3. Distribute TC Gift Cards

4. Top five ranking in their class, etc.

The above activities will motivate them to get active and stay active, as you involved your active participation setting your example and offering rewards/incentives. .

This will not make you look selfish or dictator. In fact you’re giving them something valuable for their development and growth in SFI.

You need to find out what motivates them, and see how you can offer encouragement and incentives along the way to help them achieve their dreams
