For the sake of illustration lets imagine we are examining this within a 30 to 60 day range from date of joining SFI.
It begins with my Welcome Letter and Messages. Initially right out of the gate I refer them to my SFI Start | Recruiting and Training website page called "Getting Started with SFI" from this page they are provided step by step actions to follow and there have access to Gery Carson's "Getting Started with SFI Screencast Training Video. I advise my new team members to watch it at least twice before moving on and on an as need basis after that.
I tell them: "Many end up feeling lost in SFI because they do not study, employ action and review. Not a single one of us ever instantly learned how to walk and talk. You must be patient because Success Requires Action. Most quit before they've even allowed themselves enough time to comprehend what SFI is all about."
Let them know they can enter topics for instant answers atop their SFI AFFILIATE CENTER Homepage. Tell them that at any point they feel lost to just type in the word “start” for instant access to a wealth of information that will get them moving and off to a GREAT START in SFI.
One area of primary importance is the Getting-Started Actions on their To-Do List. (Action Versa Points = AVP) These are one time only Actions (19 in all).
Now moving on you will inform them to become accustomed to doing their Daily, Weekly and Monthly Actions on their To-Do List. From here they should get 10 or more AVP daily which is the minimum required to earn and maintain their Daily VersaPoints Streak Badge. No worry! SFI has a Vacation Mode if they require its use. Between these three categories they'll earn about 500 FREE AVP per month if nothing is missed.
They have instant access atop their SFI AFFILIATE CENTER Homepage to #30 LaunchPad Lessons for one time 15 AVP each. These are for their training and I recommend they do one or two per day. Finishing within 30 days. And their Intermediate Actions on their To-Do List.
Everyday they should check your Alerts Page for SFI news and pick up that extra entree in the Daily Grand Drawing. Enter everyday and win. Persistence brings reward – you can win often.
Staying above the Green Line in the E365 Contest during the first five weeks will qualify them entry into the E365 finals. Upon entering each round for a total of six rounds they'll earn a qualifier badge, VersaPoints, free entries into the Daily Grand, numerous chances to win a share of over $2000 in daily prizes and much much more when you enter the final round which takes you to your 365th day with SFI. Provide link.
I provide them with the following notice: "If you joined SFI late in the month you will want to pay attention to your Alerts Page come the first day of the following month because you will likely be eligible for the one time VP transfer. This is a benefit that allows you to transfer all accumulated VP from the previous month."
And: "When you become a Team Leader you will be assigned a special central page at the Affiliate Center designed to help you support, instruct, motivate and inspire your team members. This is your SFI Leadership Page (LP). Here is a screen shot of the top part of my LP as it would appear to my team members when they visit. Click over to enlarge."
Here is a couple of items from my Welcome Letter: "You can now Fast Track your success in SFI with our new Fast-Track 2.0 Membership. Don't miss out on this fantastic opportunity. For details and how to qualify visit https://www.sfimg.com/FT or search "Fast-Track" atop your Affiliate Center Homepage for even more details."
"Don't become overwhelmed with all the information. Just take things in steps and stay focused on the task at hand. Before you know it, it will all be suddenly very familiar to you. Build on the Basics and don't give up! https://www.sfimg.com/SFIBasics"
