The very first thing you should do, whether your sponsor writes to you or not, is to write to him. Use both your own email and the eCards. That way if his mail is not accepting mail from SFI, then he will get your letter. Tell him that you are very interested in succeeding in SFI and you desire his input.
At the same time, make sure that you are working steadily on your To Do List. After he reads your letter, he will check his Movers List and then your profile and his Genealogy. The more you have done, the more impressed and excited he will be. Most good sponsors will respond to your letter right away.
If he doesn't? You check his profile. Does he have badges? What does his VP Streak badge say?
What status is he. When did he join? What is his class rank?
Make a good guess whether he is just inactive, too busy, too new to be knowledgeable, a quitter, or maybe needed a vacation. There are lots of reason that it appears that a sponsor is not noticing you. Also remember that his own sponsor may not be noticing and supporting him, either.
If you are a go getter and a quick learner, you may write to him, in your excitement, and tell him what you are learning and thinking, etc. You may be what he needs to get going and do his own business. It may stimulate him into learning what he needs in order to be an awesome sponsor. A slow starting sponsor does not have to remain a poor sponsor, so give him a chance and don't write him off.
SFI is built on relationships and relationships are built on communication and trust. Do your best to fit in and help others to fit in. Do not be quick to give up on an inactive sponsor. Your PSAs and Generations will be watching and duplicate your attitudes.
