Hello Edib,

Your most effective strategy should be to familiarize yourself with SFI and what it has to offer because if you don't know what to do, how to do it and where to find the right information, you cannot advance. That is why the first thing you are asked to do is read the SFI Basics and watch the START video. They contain information about ways to earn an income at SFI and give you a brief overview of the site.

Armed with that basic knowledge you can then go on to your second strategy which should also be your first goal: become an Executive Affiliate by the end of your first month and at the same time begin to learn how to recruit new affiliates and refer customers to TripleClicks in order to start earning money as soon as possible. That is what the To-Do list is for.

By the time you have done all the one-time Actions on your To-Do list and finished the 30 Launchpad lessons, you should have enough knowledge and confidence to try your hand at recruiting members to your team and referring customers to TripleClicks so that you can start earning commissions, which, of course, is the main reason why you joined SFI in the first place, right?

Hi
The best strategy is to know how to Get Started.
When new affiliates start off, it is important to know how to begin. That is why when new affiliates arrive, SFI itself helps us to get them started by watching the getting started video which we build on by welcoming them to our team
Second strategy is to know how the system works. Why many affiliates are not active is because they don't know how the system works. It took me months before it actually sank in. I didn't know why it took me so many months to finally understood it. It is so so simple and it is all written in our SFIBASICS.
Third strategy is the ability to know how to earn and How Much they can earn. when i discovered this, my advert took a new turn and i started having prospects who are ready to work and be in SFI. If most affiliates know how to earn and how much they can earn in short time and long time, they'l work hard and invest like crazy. They'l stick with SFI for life and remain active.
Fourth strategy is the ability to recruit or should i say, 'Team Building'. This is where learning and training comes in. It is important to know this.
The Fifth Strategy is the ability to generate sales. Like our slogan says, 'until someone buys something, there is no sales'. Our income power lies here and until we know how to do it efficiently and effectively, we have no income and it is good to know this earlier.
Sixth strategy is the ability to know how to market the business. This is where the Internet Income Course is very important to read as a new affiliate, so as to know how to maneveur your way to success in the business.
The last strategy is the Identification Of Knowing Where The Money is.
Some affiliates who began started making $1,000 within 2 months while it took some years before they could start making such amount! The difference? The former knew where the money is faster than the latter and where the money is lies in the power of duplication, the matching vp.
If new affiliates get this earlier and in the start, we'l see great investments and active affiliates.
Those who are active today understood this and thereby stuck with SFI amidst many online businesses.

1. Have a group of 6/10 people in your local area and organize a get-together to present the SFI opportunity. You are likely to receive active affiliates from this group faster than adopting online methods of marketing. This is keeping in mind that not everyone is familiar with how to advertise where!

2. Get your Sponsor to explain the SFI concept to this group because you are fairly new and may not have answers to all the questions the group will ask.

3. Convince the group to have a Standing Order (SO) in their 1st month and you can offer an incentive such as a Gift Certificate for the first 5 who will place a SO.

4. If you can use these 6/10 affiliates to recruit in a similar manner, you are already setting up a strong base for your network - this is why you are in SFI.

5. Recruiting within your own territory has definite advantages over other options and if you can tap into this segment of your population, you are likely to have a better success rate in terms of getting active people.

6. Regular communications with your network of affiliates adds value to your business and enhances better rapport between team members. Group discussions encourages those who may have doubts about the business.

7. Expand your network through your online shop - talk to your friends and family who are likely to be interested in your new venture.

You can always think up of your own marketing plan that will help you and your team grow.

Since everyone learns differently, this answer will be very individual for each person.

Try to identify your own learning style - do you learn best by reading, taking notes and studying? Or, do you do better to just jump in with both feet and learn as you go?

SFI is pretty much set up for any type of learner out there. They are well aware of the amount of learning needed and how to do this with the least risk of burn out.

Of course, as a brand-new affiliate, you will want to do what SFI is instructing by following the LaunchPad Lessons but only do one a day. Only read one or two articles. Do the daily to-do tasks. Look through the forum for questions or subjects that interest you. If this is all you do in the first 30 days you will have a good start without being overwhelmed.

You can adapt all this to your own learning style - if you are a reader-studyer then read everything, take notes and review.

If you are a jump in with both feet and go gung-ho, then you might want to start looking in to how to advertise your gateways on top of everything else.

This will be an individual experience and only you will know when it's too much or overwhelming for you but if you stick to common sense and your own self-knowledge, you shouldn't overwhelm yourself or burn out.

Hi Edib!

I’m a believer. SFI have been around for more than 17 years and is a successful online business. I believe that if we follow their system as it is, it will be the best and most effective strategy we should use when we start with SFI and if we want to be successful like them.

SFI strategy is as follow:
1. START – you just watch a short video about SFI.
2. SFI BASICS - You MUST read to understand how SFI works.
3. LAUNCHPAD - This is your SFI 30 days training.

What you must do is just to follow it. Just read and understand then apply the strategies you learnt from the training. In the training you get the SFI strategy called "the ultra-simple 3-step plan". It is as follow:
Step 1. Become an Executive Affiliate (EA) and remain an EA every month.
Step 2. Recruit five affiliates.
Step 3. Teach your five affiliates to do these same three steps.

It is that simple. I believe if you have read your training and understand it. It won’t be difficult to do the ultra-simple 3-steps and I believe it is the best and most effective way to start since it has been proven. When you follow it, then you’ll be successful like SFI.

I hope this will help you.
Thank you.

I think the best effective strategies one should use when starting up with SFI is that to really focus first on the trainings and the daily task.
When starting up it is important that one should be guided within the first 10 days fast track qualification because like me as when I registered as an affiliate, it was not really clear to me that I have to spend or invest 20$. You see, because it is advertized as free.

You can start with as little as $20. It can meet up to EA every month.
Of course there are lots of daily trainings but it is very much overwhelming because there are lots of links. The tendency is when you start clicking the highlighted links, there you are, you are then mislead to another topic.

You must know the basic thing to just click the red tab and earn points by clicking the blue highlighted below the red tab.

Then you must understand that after answering 10 ASK SC questions, you will answer another 20 questions in order for you to have an entry tin the daily grand.

Afterwards you go back to “TO DO LIST” Tab to answer 20 Survey questions and earn 1 versa points.

For your first 30 days it is much easier to earn 1500 Versa points to qualify as an Executive affiliate but for the 2nd month it is a little bit harder since the only daily provided easy action versapoints is minimum 390 or more.

The best thing here is when you have the capacity to invest, then you can spend 20$, 29$ or more so you can earn TCredits and earn MRP. Much better if you will purposely participate in pricebender auction and Knock-out trivia games with double MRP so you can maximize your earnings.

The next thing you should do is use this MRP's to buy TCredits for the next month for you to remain as an EA because 1 TCredit has 102 VP plus doing your daily actions also.
10 single pack of single TCredit, you will have 1020 VersaPoints. Then add up your Actions VP's for the month thereby qualifying EA status.

But if you who have extra money to invest then absolutely you can go and soar high and have enjoyable increasing of your business as you do the daily task, participating in every pricebender auction and earning more PSA's and CSA's. This way you can build your business faster if you are financially capable of investing more. In the years to come you will reap what you sow. Learn the principle of "Sowing and Reaping".

Edib;

Awhile back, there was a really good question here at AskSC that really captured my imagination. The question asked what I would do differently if I could start over at SFI. Your question here almost allows us to really go back in time to change our starts. Well, not for us but for our affiliate.

I believe the best start up strategy at SFI is to get to Bronze Team Leader quickly in the first month buy setting a 1500 VP SO and buying a new member pack. Then by being conservative on using just enough of the start up points available to get the AVP needed to reach BTL. Then DON'T use up anymore start points...save them to get to BTL again in the next month too.

Some people think you shouldn't go to team leader too soon but I completely disagree. Getting TL status allows you to share in the second-home CSAs and gaining BTL in the first month also counts as getting EA2. Both of those make it worthwhile.

An additional benefit to this quick start strategy is that you acquire your fast-track status and you have a healthy leg up on finishing first in your E365 Class.

Of course SFI is NOT just about getting points and buying status so in this first two months you need to be sponsoring and fostering new PSAs to become EA or better yet, to duplicate your lead and accelerate to BTL like you did.

Now in the second month you should still have enough start up and launch pad points to get back to BTL again. You have your 1500 VP SO but you can't buy the NMP again so you'll have to find something else worth 500 SVP. Here I would recommend some SFI letterhead, envelopes, cards and such. Perhaps your new PSA(s) that shot up to BTL for you will give you a few sponsorship AVP. that will save on the AVP you need.

You keep duplicating and by the third or fourth month the sponsorship points are boosting you to where start up points are no longer needed (and you've used them up too). Perhaps you'll want to buy some gift cards.

Conclusion; I think the best start to SFI is a fast dash forward and a huge leap into it with both feet. That is exactly how I would restart SFI if I could do it again, and it is precisely how I recommend for my affiliates to duplicate.
