Even if your communication skills are not up to par, you can still support your team partners via the knowledge that SFI has given us....you can copy the words of our fearless leader, Mr. Carson, as he has already paved the way....

Don't make this hard on yourself.....just copy what has been done previously......you don't need to reinvent the wheel.

There is so much material about marketing and how to be an AWESOME sponsor, that you cannot fail, if you just follow what has been

For new affiliates without marketing experience, just ask them if they have a car for sale......or have they ever sold a car before.....

People do not realize they are salesman - every day and every minute of the day, they are selling themselves to the public, to their boss, to their siblings, even to their friends, and most of all to otheir boyfriends, or husband....

If they have ever sold a car, they know something about marketing......ask them if they took the car to the

New Affiliates probably won't understand the importance of grabbing EVERY AVP and they are lax, even senior members sometimes get lax and don't get all the AVPS they could be getting.

All the affiliate has to do is miss making a rank up by 1, 2, or 3 points and they will soon learn....WOW, if I would have started from the first day of the month and done all my TO DO LIST, and read the material and participated in the FORUM and ASK SC, look where I could have been...

Why not set up both...I love SBuilder...it is so easy and constant..

I love to blog, so get a wordpress blog for FREE, and connect it to your FORUM news, and everyday make a blog about SFI/TC...it is so easy when you do it that way through wordpress.

Then go to TC and buy some hits, I got 400 for under $5.00 and they are appearing on my tracker as true ppl, not bots.....someone will sign up!

Get yourself a couple of SBuilders and let them roll in, if they work fine,

With the revolution of the Internet, I don't hold meetings any more....there are too many ways to get to your audience without holding costly meetings...

There is Skype, there are companies that will arrangement meetings via the net...you can do a Youtube video, but having people drive (gas money), get babysitter, or worse yet, bring the children.....noooo...that is not my bag....

We live in an instant society today....too much going on, too many things to be done to have to

What do you need to do to make sure your CSAs and PSAs are receiving your email messages?

That is a question that I DO NOT worry about....SFI has given the CSAs/PSAs a way to receive our messages, I leave that to SFI.

That being said, however, there are programs on the internet that will let you know if your message has been read.

I sent 3 messages to someone at SFI and they claimed they never saw them, when my software told me the exact time they opened my message and read it and where they were located....soooo, there is a way to find out if they got the message.

Good question and we would all like to know the answer to this one!

How to boost the momentum and maintain a moderate level of momentum is a constant and steady task!

I do not bombard my people with the latest rage at SFI, I simply explain to them that we have the best gift anyone could ask for in SFI.

We need to pay attention to the marketplace and govern ourselves accordingly. I do not look for people to tell them about my business, rather, I take advantage of

If you joined SFI, then you are one of us, why would you NOT invest in yourself, your own business, your building a business, surely you don't think you can do it without funds....

Start small if you have to, I did, and now I have built my business and my commissions pays for my investment...and gives me spending money too....

You must stay the course...do not let anything deter you away from SFI, it is the best on the internet, by far!

Good luck and happy hunting

In the first place, I don't try to convince anyone of anything, much less to enter my business....I don't want dead wood in my business....I want ppl that will work, and strive to succeed, otherwise I would be wasting my time and theirs, and Gery's time.

This is an excellent company with excellent benefits for everyone...but YOU must make it happen for YOU!

We have been given the tools to work with, some ppl just don't want to work.....so back to the basics.....WORK WITH THE

Local seminars or meetings to me are archaic at best.....that is the old style.....the internet has solved that problem for us.

Whatever you need to show to your new prospect can be done online in the privacy of their own home, no need to get dressed and go to a meeting....

Everything you need to recruit has been done online by Mr. Carson and we just need to follow his advice and advertise everywhere you can and you will attract the prospects via your advertising.
