In general, Member Reward Points (MRP) are points awarded after purchasing a TripleClicks (TC) item. Almost all products listed at TripleClicks contain information on how many MRPs will be rewarded as well as equivalent MRPs needed to purchase a TC product.

In my experience MRPs are important part in doing promotions and incentives to my team. I accumulate MRPs to buy Gift Certificate and TCredits and give them as rewards for recognition in their achievements like renewing to EA2 or moving up as a Team Leader.

I encourage them in doing their bidding at Pricebender to look for Double MRP item Auctions. For each bid they will get 10 MRP instead of 5 MRP. They can in turn use accumulated MRPs to purchase TCredits and at the same time receive the corresponding VPs for purchasing TCredits to top up their VersaPoints Rank.

To answer your question, go back to the definition of autopilot in business. Setting up a system in your business to look after itself is called autopilot. You just have to set it up once to start running on its own. This is an option but you’ll need to invest more financially and so greatly reduce your time investment with SFI. In fact there are free apps that can help you run a small business. But you have to consider this: “The best things in life may be free, but they get better when you pay for them”. In running a business you’ll need to consider your start up investment and resources.

Personally, I will not set up my SFI business on autopilot. Why?

- In duplication, you’ll need to establish close relationship with your downlines. This means consistently and actively involved in building your team.

- Communication is a vital part of duplication in your SFI business. Automating messages sounds like a robot and without personal touch. You need to show that you care for your affiliates/customers. You also need to provide a sound advice to needing in their queries.

- In SFI Forum and Ask SC participation, you’ll need to give your best to make SFI a thriving online home-based business for everyone.

You can’t be successful in your SFI business without you being actively involved. When you receive your newly sponsored affiliates, it's critical that you provide guidance on getting started and how they can generate sign-ups for themselves. This is how you implement duplication within your team and thereby greatly increase your income potential because you can earn a percentage of everything they earn for life.

My first distributions of TC Gift Cards were done at my work. My work colleagues know me very well, how I treat them. Most of the time, I smile and be friendly to them. An hour before starting in my current job, I do the To-Do List using my smart phone. I was checking out the latest items at TripleClicks, when one of my colleagues out of his curiosity asked about why I’m so glued with my smart phone every morning before work. I showed him the TripleClicks products that I was viewing and he was surprise to see how many products are listed, he asked me to search for nutrition supplement. I have been using Veriuni Liquid Nutrition. He asked how he can purchase the product. I gave him 1 TC Gift Card.

He showed the TC Gift Card to others at work. In that day, I have given 7 TC Gift Cards. One of my colleagues, who got it, joined SFI and he’s now a Bronze Team Leader. I gave one also to my barber and she redeemed it at once. The message, I want to convey here is, if you are friendly, smiling before striking a conversation to someone, this could be your car mechanic, you’ll get most likely a positive response.

I consider this carefully designed TC Gift Cards as a great tool in signing up new affiliates, so I just don’t leave them on the table in a restaurant after dining. I would rather include one TC Gift Cards together with my tip to the waiter/waitress.

Attitudes do make the difference. When our attitude is right, our abilities reach a maximum of effectiveness and good results inevitably follow.

You might be surprised to know that many people are affected by the fear of success. Many joined SFI in search of better opportunity, to become an entrepreneur, to quit their full time work, improve their way of living and attain financial freedom. But somehow and sometimes doubts set in and you need to recognize what this doubt/fear is in order to eliminate it and strengthen your desire for success.

In order to understand the fear of success, you need to know the reasons why people have a fear of success:

- Afraid of the outcome of your actions towards achieving success

- Uncertain of lifestyle changes that might be required

- Worried about the affects of your success in your relationships – Family/Friends/Co-workers

- Scared of responsibility or extra work associated with being successful

- Skeptical on what success can bring – Whether jealousy among friends or fear of loneliness

Before you can help your team members to overcome the fear of success, you’ll need to look at yourself if you have it.

Here are things to consider that might relate you to a fear of success and could hold you back from success if not dealt with:

- Keeping your accomplishments to yourself, and do not express them to others

- Procrastinate or avoid projects with big roles or big responsibility

- Think that sustaining a successful life would be too difficult, and you will
lose it

- Feel guilty of success – Worry of family or friends without the same success

- Undermine your goals thinking it may conflict with your current lifestyle

- Sometimes convince yourself you might not have what it takes for success
- Having thoughts you are unworthy or do not deserve to experience success

- Believe more work may come from success than you can handle

How to overcome your fear of success and help your team members to overcome it:

- Facing your fear is one of the most effective ways to weaken the effects of your fear.

- Rationalize your thoughts with realistic outcomes and emotions to make your fear of success fade away.

- Ask the following questions to find out if you feel any of the characteristics of fear and write down your responses and share them to your team members:

How will my life change if I achieve the success of my SFI business?

If successful, what will my family think? What will my friends think?

What is my motivation level for this achievement?

What is the worst case scenario of a successful achievement?

What is the best case scenario?

Why do I feel I cannot or should not achieve the success of my SFI business?

What emotions and fears am I experiencing in venturing my SFI business?

What actions am I performing to prevent achieving the success of my SFI business

When you understand your subconscious behaviors, you will soon eliminate your concerns related to the outcomes of success. When asking yourself these questions, think pass what you want to see happen, or fear to happen, and think about the most likely outcomes.

When achieving success, discuss it with your team members, to encourage and motivate them. Most family and friends are accepting, and happy for your success. A handful of your family and friends can react negatively towards it because of jealousy or thinking they are better.

Let your team members know how you dealt with it. Brushing away jealous and negative remarks is a great practice for overcoming the fear of success.

To answer your question we need to define what you mean by playing field. Do you mean what is in store for new affiliates, an opportunity to grow and the tools and resources available for that purpose including multiple income streams?

If you look back from the humble beginning of SFI in 1998 at its launching, you’ll see that, it started with just one product sold only in the United States. Do you ever hear the founder of SFI asking, it’s not fair to begin with just one product? How to market the product? How to let others share SFI opportunity? It must be a lot of obstacles and challenges to overcome to make this opportunity far reaching and be made available to others, where there is Internet connection worldwide.

I joined 12 years ago, because I saw that SFI has a bright future. I believe and made commitment on this opportunity and it has changed my life. I can tell you that it was very hard to sponsor back then, let alone creating your own website and advertise online. There was no W3 Wave 3, Pricebender Auctions, Zebra Games and Song of the Month contest. I have lots to be thankful for the great innovations and how SFI has grown into one of the most highly rated home business opportunity online. Just look at the stats of the daily enrollment of affiliates, if this doesn’t excite you what about the ECA program, SFIPPA and 45% and 15% commissions you earn from your downline every month?

You should be thankful for discovering SFI and get started to learn as much as you can to develop your full potential in your SFI vernture.

If you’re wondering how to discover your full potential of being an SFI affiliate and take advantage of the available multiple income streams, then you should write down your goal how to achieve it. Make a plan. Don’t do some or all of the SFI multiple income stream programs at the same time. You’ll get confuse.

Here’s what I suggest:

- First learn to grow your SFI business and get established. State your goals and write down your plan. Focus on building teams of Team Leaders. You’ll need time and financial investment. If you are short on your budget, you can start referring ECA to earn royalties. This will help you in your financial needs in your SFI business. You reap the rewards of maximizing your income with sponsoring and duplication. For some it may take 5, 10 or even 20 years to accomplish this goal.

- Join the ECA Program. This is another good source of income. Joining this program requires careful planning from complying with the ECA requirements, product creation or simply connecting with manufacturers and start selling their products at TripleClicks.

- Increase your earnings by generating sales at TripleClicks.com. Sponsoring PRM or simply advertising TC’s products will take some of your time. This is one of the reason why you should focus one income stream at a time. You’ll need time to learn.

- SFIPPA program is another source of supplemental income. You do advertising for SFI. This requires also a lot of work, so you need to take your time to learn and master it.

These are all great opportunity to earn multiple incomes. Could you imagine doing them all at the same time?

CSA or PSA being inactive is a common problem in SFI community. How you deal with this challenge will determine how far you will go as you venture your SFI business. This might be a deciding factor between failure and success.

Think of the positive side about affiliate inactivity. An individual may be in search of a business that yields real income and SFI is one of the most well grounded money making opportunity online business of today. An individual did not just signed-up for nothing. Think also of the time and money invested in signing up an affiliate. Are you going to take these investments for granted? What could be the potential of an affiliate, once he/she understands, becomes passionate and committed in his/her true calling in SFI? We don’t know the exact reasons behind, why and what cause their inactivity. When I joined over ten years ago, I didn’t understand the SFI concept, didn’t get support from uplines and as a result, I seldom logged in.

If you understand that SFI is a long term commitment, then you will appreciate very much your affiliates, whether they are active or inactive. You will send them messages that build up their strength in working together as a team consistently. Even if I see CSAs assigned under me who have zero VP, not logged in since joining SFI, I will not give up on them but send them regular invitation to log in their homepage and see for themselves the great opportunity and how much fun SFI is. They will discover the warm atmosphere ( affiliates helping affiliates) in SFI Forum, the tons of information in Ask SC to help you build your business, TripleClicks' Pricebender Auctions, Games, products closeout and hot deals, Wave3 and so on.

Keep moving and never give up.

Choose Between Few Affiliates Whom You can Teach or Sponsor New Ones
Your question refers to how you can become successful in this business by making choices between sponsoring fewer PSAs for training them in duplication or continuously sponsoring new affiliates until you find a few who has a high teachability index to follow what you do.

Before you make your choice, analyze your team. Go to your Genealogy and determine from your downline who are the best qualified PSAs for training in duplication. You must have criteria for doing that, like being consistent in doing the TO-DO List, SFI Forum and ASK SC participation, total of badges and so on. The key for your duplication should be an affiliate has high willingness to learn from you and he is willing to accept change and do whatever it takes to succeed.

If you don’t find one, then focus on sponsoring new affiliates until you find the number of PSAs that you can manage without neglecting other responsibilities as a team leader. Even if you have found qualified PSAs to train, sponsoring affiliates is still a vital part of your business routine, but you have to make sure that you don’t lose your focus on helping and building your movers. All your personally sponsored affiliates have potential to become successful. The more affiliates you can train to become successful, the better. SFI will become strong and powerful.
