A Great Question!
Just informing them of the value of the new fast track program without necessarily "selling" them on it. I find that if you build rapport with your new recruit initially, this will go along way into building trust. Once that trust is built they will be eager to take your information and apply it to the business.
We know how valuable the new fast track program is:
* Monthly Bonus Shares of the Executive Pool EVERY MONTH!
* 250 Bonus Versa Points
* 30 Free Entries into the Daily Grand drawing
* And More!
We know that over time, the $20 investment to qualify each month will earn us even more money as our business grows.
I remember just starting out thinking that the Fast Track was just another word label they placed on something that was not that unimportant. As I stuck with the business I realized the Fast Track, although not crucial to success with SFI, is a vital part in becoming successful with SFI quickly.
By adopting the fast track principles of success your affiliates are ultimately trusting you and SFI to teach them the journey to success. Building that trust through email, phone, or instant message will only help those affiliates who may be a little leery of the power that SFI brings into there life.

The best way is to scale your business. Purchase a share into the co-op for only .72 a day. Once you start seeing recruits in your downline make sure you reach out to them right away. Follow the task list that is outlined in their affiliates profile. This will help you to build a rapport with your new team member.
Keep working with your affiliates, new and old, month after month. Help them to grow there team and duplicate your success. Keep in mind that each affiliate will have various skill sets and goals so you will have to help cater a gameplan that fits with there needs.
Once you become experienced recruiting and communicating with your downline - scale up! Use the profits from your business and purchase another share into the S-Builder Co-op and continue to grow your business for even more recruits into your network.
Keep repeating this process of scaling and duplicating and you will be on a path of unlimited success.

What's the best way to attract traffic to my Member TConnect page?

The BEST way is kind of tough because there are so many ways to drive traffic to it.If you have the budget, the best way would be targeted traffic through Facebook, Google, Linked In, and many of the other top visited websites that offer targeted traffic.
This method is minimal work. You plug in your TConnect page into there respective advertising portals and you get hits to your page through keywords related to what your selling, SFI, PriceBenders, Tripleclicks, etc.
For instance, if you wanted to focus on affiliate recruitment through your TConnect page, you would have your page set up with a short description of the SFI opportunity and a gateway link. Then drive TARGETED traffic with keywords like home business, affiliate marketing, making money online, or other words that you can think of that will make people want to join SFI.
If you have a business set up on your TConnect page selling arts & crafts then you would set up an advertising campaign based on words related to your arts & crafts business etc etc.
Targeted traffic is always the best because some of these sites allow you to target race, age, income, country, city, and more - alongside the targeted keywords. They also keep demographic data on the folks who actually visit your site which allows you to tighten up future advertising campaigns. This is why you should set up a squeeze page asking for an email address that will then introduce the interested party into your TConnect page. This method will allow you to keep the email for future use in order to bring more traffic to more promotions in relation to those targeted keywords.

How do you ensure that the TCards you send out are used...and what do you do when they are not?

Ask to follow-up with them through email after handing them out. If they are not willing to receive a followup than most likely they won't use it anyway. The gift card tracker located at https://www.sfimg.com/MyAccount/MyReports/GCtracking is a great way to keep track of your interested prospects.
A follow up ensures an interested individual. Based on the conversation that you have you should be able to tell if they are serious about trying out the gift card or not. A followup also acts as a reminder just in case the gift card was forgotten about.
I would hand them out and ask to follow up with them the next day. This is why I think the one-a-day-plan is great (https://www.sfimg.com/GCguide/GCguide) because if you hand out 10 - 15 - 30 cards at a time then you might spend your whole day just trying to followup without generating a real connection with them. It is more important to find someone to use the card rather than just handing them out like coupons at a supermarket.
When they are not being used don't get discouraged. Have an attitude of the next gift card will be used, along with the next one, and so forth and so on.
You know that SFI is great. It just means that person was skeptical for whatever reason and shied away from a great opportunity. I doubt it was your approach or anything, but just a lack of understanding of what Tripleclicks is all about.

Which is better for winning Pricebenders auctions: using the auto-bidder or not using auto-bidder?

When I participate in auctions there is always someone utilizing the auto-bidder. There are many different strategies to winning auctions. Some people are very aggressive where they auto-bid from start to finish and are relentless with there bidding even when they are outbid. Some folks are more laid back and conservative. They lay back and wait for some of the bid action to go down before they chime in with there own bids.
Most of the time when I sit and watch auctions it's the auto-bid approach that wins.
Then there are auctions that are not as hectic where auto- bid is not necessary.
A great approach either way is to bid on auctions for your skill level. Each level has a skill set because there is a skill to winning these auctions.
PriceBenders offers:
*First Win Auctions for people who have never won an auction
*Junior Auctions for people with 9 wins or less
*Regular Auctions
*Big Dog Auctions
Stay within your skill level and approach every auction with the attitude that your going to win. These people are relentless so you can't be afraid to bid bid bid. Sometimes you get lucky and bid on products that not to many people are bidding on and win them for very cheap.
But auto-bidding is definitely a tool that will help you to win auctions. You won't have to use them all the time, but most of the time these are how people are winning auctions. This is a skill that has to be learned.

How do you maximize the benefits of being a Bronze Team Leader?

You maximize the benefits of Bronze Team Leader by working hard towards becoming Silver Team Leader. With this mentality you not only achieve the success that comes along with Bronze Team Leader, but now you set yourself up for even more benefits with the next level of SFI -- Silver Team Leader.
By achieving Bronze Team Leader status you get introduced to the power of duplication which is the most powerful method for achieving success with SFI. BTL's are able to receive matching VP on all Executive Affiliates and above, who have been in at least EA status for two months, down six levels including CSA's.
Other benefits include:
* A share in the allotment for second-home CSA's which carry a value of $108.
* 12 TCredits to be used at triple clicks, price Benders, or given to your PSA's/CSA's as a gift.
* Express affiliate support.
These benefits help grow your business faster than Affiliate or Executive Affiliate status and help you to achieve the next level of Silver Team Leader.

How do you turn affiliates' EMPLOYEE mentality...to a BUSINESS OWNER mentality?

Great question Maria.
I think it starts with Gery Carson, the owner of SFI, and when he makes the statement of treating Tripleclicks as YOUR store.
On the surface it may sound just like a typical motivational business type statement. But once you start to realize what SFI is all about and what it stands for you, you realize he actually means that. Even though SFI and Tripleclicks are his businesses, he wants everybody to develop a mindset of ownership. To develop that mindset he wants us to treat the business like it is our business and the Tripleclicks store like it's our store and for us to actually believe that it is.
Once you actually believe in that philosophy now you should start to have a mentality of responsibility, of ownership, and have now stepped out of the realm of employee.
We are not working for Gery Carson, SFI, Tripleclicks or our upline. We are working for ourselves. The SFI staff, leaders, affiliates, upline, downline, and Gery Carson are the springboards that help get us to becoming actual owners.
By teaching affiliates this principle I think it will go a long way to taking the employee mentality out of the mind and putting the business owner mindset into the mind.

Such a tough question to answer because all of the gateways are tested and tried and serve a purpose for a wide variety of audiences who are eager to be self-employed.
Creating a blog about finding deals online, self-employment, entrepreneurship, home business, etc. etc. that can be picked up by the search engines can serve as a great gateway into SFI, Tripleclicks, and PriceBenders penny auctions.
This gateway allows you to leave your blogs hyperlink instead of a link with your affiliate ID where certain high-traffic forums, blogs, websites, social media, classifieds and other sharing opportunities don't allow.
You're also able to have other people comment on your blog which opens a line of communication where your able to communicate back and forth with like minded individuals.
With your blog you can sprinkle banners and links throughout your site that point to SFI, Tripleclicks, and PriceBenders to sign-up potential Platinum Team Leader members.

Measure your success by asking yourself if your a Platinum Team Leader or not. We all joined because we want that financial freedom that SFI offers and why not measure that successful mindset by reaching the Top Spot within the organisation.
Platinum Team Leader incorporates duplication, achieving your goals, creating other successful business owners, and all of the other reasons why you joined in the first place. Why continue working SFI if Platinum Team Leader was not the goal.
We start out as affiliates. Our next goal should be Executive Affiliate then Bronze Team Leader - Silver Team Leader - Gold Team Leader - Then Platinum Team leader. A key driver in our success is not to get discouraged along the way if we are knocked down a level or two along the way. We keep fighting until we reach PTL and maintain it.
I think another key measure is how many other success stories we help create with SFI. Creating folks who become successful, or even more successful than us, will be a great testimony to our success.
