What's holding you back?

When you made the decision to join SFI did you have a goal in mind? Was it improving your lifestyle?

Replacing the income from your J.O.B. (just over broke)? Supplementing your retirement income? Whatever you may have had in mind, unless you won the lottery recently, you probably still have the same needs. So, if you're not yet active in your SFI business, what's holding you back?

Here's the bottom line. SFI provides a way for you to build a business and achieve your financial goals, but it just doesn't happen by joining - there is work involved! No big secret; no big revelation; just plain talk. If you want to earn money you must do the things necessary to make it happen. In SFI, that means...

1. Level up to at least Level 5 Bronze. Then Log in everyday and unlock your building blocks to get bonus entries in the Daily Grand Drawing. Finally, create an Auto Delivery Order to maintain your minimum Level 5 rank each month.
   
2.  Learn to market your business to friends and family, but don't stop there! Market through the internet, through print media, and/or Co-ops and PSA's to go as well. Find customers for your TripleClicks store who will bid on auctions or play games or make occasional purchases. Find at least three people who want what you want, to own and operate their own home-based business, and show them the benefits of becoming an SFI affiliate.
   
3. Teach those three people to do all the same things you are doing everyday. This is duplication which is vital to your business.

All the above are the necessary steps to being successful and making money in SFI. Imagine it this way. If you are willing to invest just $50 per month (this is arbitrary, it could more or less) in building your business and you recruit just one new active PSA each month for the next year who follows your lead, you could be earning well over $100 per month in Direct Commissions alone. That means your $50 investment is paid for, and you are in profit. And, that amount does not include the overide and co-sponsored commissions which could be significant, or any other perks and bonuses such as Rewardical redemptions, etc.! After a few years, $100 could easily become $1000s per month!

So, what's holding you back? Think it's too good to be true?

I dare you to dream big and take action!

How Hackers Get Your Info

The best-known abuse is theft of your credit card number. After massive breaches like

Target and Home Depot, many customers experienced fraudulent charges on their accounts or received new cards from lenders.

Card numbers are obtained in many ways. Sometimes it’s as simple as a small device called a skimmer that captures the data on your magnetic strip. Restaurant staffers and retail employees can also use pocket skimmers to duplicate your card info when the card is out of your sight. Perhaps the biggest use of skimmers is at gas pumps where they grab your data as you pay at the pump.

While many consider credit card theft the worst kind of identity theft, it’s really a low-level type of data theft. Most card issuers cover the fraud at no charge to customers. At most, your risk is $50. The real loss to you is the time it takes to mop up the problem.

Far worse is the February 2015 hack of Anthem, a health insurer who reported losing data on roughly 80 million customers and employees. In its letter to customers, Anthem said, hackers had possibly accessed “names, dates of birth, Social Security numbers (SSN), health care ID numbers, home addresses, email addresses and employment information, including income data.”

In short, the Anthem hack exposed enough information to let hackers open new credit accounts, obtain government documents, and even commit medical identity theft, a growing threat that could use up health benefits or add false, potentially harmful data to victims’ medical records. Imagine an instance where someone uses your medical ID to get treatment and has the wrong blood type entered into your records. In an emergency, this sort of identity theft could be deadly.

Another common hack occurs when you visit a malware-riddled website that could download a key-logger without your knowledge. The next time you do some online banking, the malware captures your password and sends it to the hacker. Alternatively, you might open a loaded email that appears legit but is really seeking to capture data like passwords and other info. These are often referred to as phishing scams because people are fishing for more of your personal data.

It’s also far more time consuming to correct full-blown identity theft. This type of identity theft can take hundreds of hours to clean up. The solution: PrivacyMaxx provides pro-active Identity Protection and Restoration that is guaranteed. 

Get protected from all the above threats and more for as little as $4.97 per month when you sign up for Privacy Maxx protection for three years!

Identity Theft

Did You Know?...

There are six types of Identity Theft:

• New Account Fraud
• Account Takeover Fraud
• Criminal Identity Theft
• Medical Identity Theft
• Identity Cloning
• Commercial Identity Theft

ID theft is about MUCH more than a stolen credit card. Stolen identities are used to fraudulently obtain medical services, commit crimes, acquire fraudulent documentation, take over your current bank or investment accounts, and obtain credit for which repayment will never be made, destroying your credit rating along the way.

An identity theft occurs every 3 seconds and 50% of the U.S. Adult Population have been hacked--and most of them don’t even know it! In fact, ID Theft is the #1 consumer complaint for the past 12 consecutive years! 

Now you can protect yourself and your family from ID Theft with an affordable fully-managed ID recovery service.

Don't fall prey to ID Theft! 

In the event of ID theft, you'll get direct access to a PrivacyMaxx professional recovery advocate, who will manage the entire recovery process for you and your family. In addition to handling the follow-up, paperwork, and phone calls for you to recover your name and credit history, your advocate will document, dispute and reverse all fraudulent transactions for all known types of identity theft. As an added layer of protection, you'll also get 12 months of Internet Monitoring follow-up once you are back to pre-theft status.

When you sign up for PrivacyMaxx ID Recovery Service you'll have complete peace of mind!

• Covers you and your immediate family (spouse or domestic partner, children at the same address up to age 25, IRS dependents sharing the same address regardless of age, or nursing home/hospice, or deceased 12 months or less)
• Fully-managed ID recovery service
• Covers ID theft with no family fraud or other exclusions
• Unlimited restorations
• No deductible
• Work until credit and identity are restored to pre-theft status
• Includes 12 months of post-recovery monitoring
• $25,000 Expense Reimbursement 

Identity theft victims will be reimbursed for the following:

Lost wages as a result of time taken off from work to deal with the fraud, including wrongful incarceration--up to $1,000 per week for five weeks.

Notary and certified mail charges for completing and delivering fraud affidavits.

Fees to re-apply for loans that were denied as a result of erroneous credit information due to the identity theft.

Long distance telephone charges for calling merchants, law enforcement agencies or credit grantors to discuss an actual identity theft.

Attorney fees incurred, with the provider’s prior consent, for Defending suits brought incorrectly by merchants or their collection agencies Removing criminal or civil judgments wrongly entered against the victim Challenging information in a credit report.

Costs for daycare and eldercare coverage, if that coverage is necessary for a covered person to attend meetings or otherwise have the ability to restore financial health and credit history as a result of identity theft.

 All this for as little as $5.53 per month! Compare this coverage and cost to other ID protection services...

Is FREE a good thing?

People love free stuff right? Yet, for some, free has the connotation of cheap, or worthless. Well let me tell you that cheap and worthless is far from what you’ll get when you join SFI free! It has always been free to join and always will. But there are those who think that by charging a fee to join it would improve the quality of signups. This is not true and I’d like to share the exact words from SFI as to why it is, and will remain, a free business opportunity.

From the 24-hour Knowledge Base at support.sfimg.com...

"Since our launch in 1998 we've been free to join and we don't plan to ever change that. Here's why:

1. It would be unlawful for us to pay commissions on sign-up fees. And while a sign-up KIT makes some sense, it would have to be sold at our cost (it's unlawful to profit on the sale or pay any commissions on a sign-up kit). And since the majority of our affiliates come from outside of the United States, the postage cost would be very high and the delivery time far too long. We believe it is much smarter to have a the equivalent of a starter kit in DIGITAL form--that new affiliates can access IMMEDIATELY upon signing up, and provide this FREE. And this is what we do. 

2. Some say charging a fee to join would improve the quality of sign-ups. There's no doubt it would. But it would also mean that, every year, tens of thousands of affiliates with outstanding potential would pass on SFI. We don't believe that knocking all these people out upfront serves anyone well in the long run. We have a TREMENDOUS program. We want as many people as possible to see this. How better than to let anyone who's interested in learning about SFI, to fully access SFI by letting them sign up for free? Let them kick the tires. Let them take SFI for a test drive. That's how car dealers sell cars. That's how we show people how great SFI is. 

3. "But it clutters up my Genealogy!" some say. Other say it wastes their time "badgering" new affiliates who don't do anything. First of all, there's no need to badger anyone, and if you can't stand seeing inactive people in your Genealogy, just choose to view the condensed version (link located top center at your Genealogy), which omits all who haven't logged in in the last 90 days. But ignore all these supposedly inactive people at your own peril! Some of our biggest, highest-earning affiliates took MONTHS before deciding to become active with SFI. What convinced them? For many, it was upline members who continued to send them weekly SFI newsletters, etc. And remember that when you're using tools like the PSA Mailer, CSA Mailer, or Genealogy Group Mailer, it takes just as much effort to send a newsletter to one person as it does to a thousand. So send your newsletter to ALL of your group--yes, even those "horrible" inactive people. But don't be surprised when some percentage of those formerly inactive people suddenly come to life because of that constant and regular flow of communication you initiated! Failure is the path of least persistence! Don't give up on people just because their timing may be different than yours. Be persistent. That's how you win in life and it's how you win in SFI too.
And, of course, SFI has been refining for more than a decade its follow-up system for new affiliates. In other words, even if you don't do anything with the people that are signing up under you, SFI's powerful system continues to communicate with your new affiliates through a variety of newsletters and other emails. Do you REALLY not want to let this powerful and proven system go to work for you--just because your Genealogy has a few extra names in it?"

If this makes sense to you, and you want to work for yourself in the comfort of your own home with just a computer, tablet, or smartphone, you can get started right here for free, and get free training.

Is SFI a Scam?

Hey everyone! For this post I want to share a wonderful article I read at the SFI Forum from one of our excellent affiliates and contributors.

Shared on 4/6/15 at the Forum

(( This Week's Team Mail ))Hey folks, it's Andy here and I wanted to address a serious issue that we face as members of SFI.

See in any online business or offline business only 3% of the population will become top earners and be highly successful. The rest of us come somewhere below this crowd that makes 80% of the world's income and the largest number of people in the world see little to no success at all in owning their own business.

The single largest business killers are lack of dedication and lack of knowledge.

To greatly increase your odds of success you must constantly increase the value you give to your business. You must read like a leader and apply what you learn, and be dedicated to sticking out during the tough times or you will fail.
As a result every year SFI has tens of thousands of people lose their business, they fail, and about half of 1 percent will blame SFI for the failure because we all have EGO issues.

SFI has been in business for 17 years and has had millions of members and the half of a percent that blame SFI for their self designed failure is thousands of people and many of them are now bloggers who write poison pen reviews.

What is a poison pen review?

This occurs when someone writes things they know are not true in order to hurt the business they feel has wronged them. 99.9% of all reviews that attack SFI are full of false information. The comments that follow are much the same and one of the biggest claims is that the person supposedly bought everything they were told to buy which you are never told to buy anything and are actually told you don't have to buy anything.

Another line of attack is they misquote the Executive Bonus Pool as a MLM style Pyramid scheme or Ponzi Scam.

Part of the origin of this is the number of members we get who have just left the MLM field and think in terms of everyone must join, place a standing order and only focus on referring more affiliates who place standing orders. That is a system of failure, it fails because as the pyramid gets bigger and bigger it gets harder to find serious recruits who will place a standing order so the people in last make the least money and many don't earn anything.

SFI however is an Affiliate Marketing company like the affiliate systems of E-Bay and Amazon.

You make money off the sales of retail goods offered by over 6,000 merchants in nearly 200 countries around the globe. You never have to buy anything to earn money, to make rank, or accomplish DTL membership. You can do it all by learning to promote products for sale and teaching the Personally Sponsored Affiliates or PSA you refer to do the same.

The Bonus Pool offers a dynamic that is more honest than the E-bay and Amazon affiliate programs in the fact that with them, your regular sales referral efforts will bring them new affiliates and they never give you a dime off the money those affiliate generate for them. With SFI not only do you earn Versa Points off the sales generated by your downline you also earn off their actions as well and the pool is a share of the total profits of TripleClicks.

SFI doesn't pay you 4-6% off the top and take the team you built paying you nothing, they give you the ability to earn additional and residual income off up to 12 levels of referrals under you. You just need to help the people you bring in learn to sell, learn to recruit, and learn to teach this to their teams too.

SFI could exist even if not one affiliate ever placed a standing order because world wide there are 2 billion online shoppers and over 100 million online retailers. SFI however chooses to share in all levels of success with you as an affiliate and makes you a partner in the success of TripleClicks.

Success/Failure - Part IV

SFI's president, Mr. Gery Carson, has distilled over 17 years of building the #1 affiliate program on the internet today into what he calls the "SFI Rules Of Success". It's very simple: If you want to SUCCEED, you must follow these rules. If you want to risk FAILURE, ignore them. These rules can be applied to any business. 

Here are rules #10 and $11.

Set goals...and publish them!

A valid plan for success must include not just goals, but published goals! In the “profile” section of the SFI Affiliate Center site, there is a worksheet for every new affiliate to complete their goals. Additionally, on the Affiliate Center homepage you can view your goals daily, and update them, if necessary, every month. Once you've set your goals, you can even print out the page and keep it on the wall near where you work on your SFI business, or anywhere you like. i.e. Publish them!

This may seem silly to you, but psychologically it can be a game-changer. No one knows why exactly, but publishing your goals seems to launch activity in your powerful subconscious mind that seems to literally "pull" you towards the achievement of your goals!

Studies on goal-setting have revealed truly amazing statistics. For example, a study of college students who used goal-setting in college found they eventually landed in the top percentile of all earners!

Setting goals is so easy to do, yet 95% of people never set goals. They just never take the time. And who do you think are the most successful, highest-earning people in the world? The 5% group of course! If you want to be in the 5% group, don't even think about ignoring goal-setting!

"People with goals succeed because

they know where they're going." -Earl Nightingale

"Put your goals in writing. If you can't put it on a sheet of paper,

you probably can't do what it takes to achieve the goal." -Unknown

One reason why some people cannot write down their goals is because their goals do not match their ‘core desires’. Best selling author, Jack Zufelt, has a great book on this subject which I highly recommend titled, “The DNA of Success”. You can get your own digital copy of the book here for only $14.95.

Have a plan (a realistic plan)

Goals are vital, as Rule #10 makes clear, but you must also have a plan to achieve your goals, and it must be realistic.

Start with this: Though SFI is truly one of the few businesses where you can earn while you learn, think of your first 6-12 months primarily as a training period. Build this into your plan. In this era of "instant everything," I know that's a tough thing for a lot of people to deal with, but big incomes simply do not happen overnight. It's just not reality. If it was, everybody would be rich.

Instead, plan to work the hardest your first 6-12 months or so and get compensated the least. Don't expect large earnings until after you've educated yourself and given yourself time to put your plan fully into operation.

The Anti-Wealth Plan

Do you have money to burn? I know I don’t. But don’t you think It would be great to have so much money that burning a little would not make a significant difference in your bank account? Now, even if I did have that kind of excess cash, I doubt that I would opt to burn any of it! Nevertheless, it would definitely be great to have that option.

Sadly though, most people will go through their entire lives on what could be called “The Anti-Wealth Plan”. Others call it the "40/40/40 Plan." That is, work 40 hours a week for someone for 40 years and retire with $40 in the bank!

Of course, that is an exaggeration, yet the U.S. Social Security Board has reported that 85 out of 100 Americans won't possess as much as $500 in savings by age 65. And only 2% will be self-sustaining; the rest will be dependent on family, church, or the government!

The main problem with a typical job is that when YOU stop, the money stops.

Understand this: If you ever want to acquire real wealth, you'll never  get there trading hours for money.

The world's wealthiest people have known for hundreds of years that if you want financial freedom, you MUST tap into residual income and/or leveraged income.

1. RESIDUAL INCOME

Residual Income is income that keeps coming in month after month, year after year, from work you do just ONCE. It's like a royalty. An example would be writing a book or recording a song and getting paid forever on it. Wouldn't it be absolutely awesome to have that?! Well, with SFI you can!

2. LEVERAGED INCOME

Leveraged Income is earning money through other people's efforts. There are only 24 hours in a day. Therefore, there's only so much you can earn through your own efforts. But with SFI, you can earn Leveraged Income (in the form of "override" commissions) when affiliates you've sponsored in SFI make sales.

Earn even more Leveraged Income when they sponsor other affiliates and refer TripleClicks members who make purchases...and when your affiliates’ affiliates sponsor affiliates and refer members...and so on.

The fact is, by simply sponsoring a few good, active SFI affiliates, you can eventually have hundreds or even THOUSANDS of affiliates and TC members putting money in your pocket from around the world...around the clock!

But that's not even the best part. Each affiliate on your sales team has their own vested interest to build and KEEP ON building their business and income. This, of course, means YOUR income can continue and grow month after month–even when you want to take a vacation or decide to retire altogether.

Think of it, how many more things could be greater than returning home from a nice vacation to find a commission check even bigger than the month before waiting in your mailbox!

Bottom line: With SFI, not only can you earn "do-it-once, get-paid-forever" residual-style income, you also can earn Leveraged Income on the sales of thousands of other affiliates! If building financial security is one of your goals, SFI is the perfect vehicle.

Even better, you can get started FREE, and you’ll get all the training and support you need to succeed, absolutely FREE! It’s a no brainer. Join now and take all the time you need to browse around the SFI affiliate center. You can opt-out any time you wish, if you don’t think SFI is for you. But I think you’ll be impressed.

Success / Failure - Part III

Over the last 60 years, literally millions of people have participated in Network Marketing, MLMs, and Affiliate Marketing businesses. Why do some people go to the top while others seem to struggle endlessly hardly make a dime? Well, there are no simple, easy answers to that question. However, through many years of trial and error, and hundreds of millions of dollars spent on figuring out what works and what doesn't, SFI has a very clear picture of what leads to success.

SFI's president, Mr. Gery Carson, has distilled all of this into what he calls the  "SFI Rules Of Success". And so it's very simple: If you want to SUCCEED, you must follow these rules. If you want to risk FAILURE, ignore them. These rules can be applied to any business. 

Rule #9

Open your eyes to your potential

You may not realize it right now, but inside you you have the potential to become very, very successful. Successful beyond your wildest dreams. So why aren't you? By and large, it's because our schools, governments, teachers, professors, and clergy don't teach you this!

On the contrary in fact, you've been programmed your whole life to accept mediocrity, to believe that conforming and compromising is the way you go through life and that real success is unachievable except for the "privileged." Of course, people that have become
highly successful have learned this is not true at all and they have broken out of these artificial constraints...and so should you!

For me, it was reading the classic book "Think And Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill at the age of 22 that opened my eyes. I was also greatly impacted by "The Magic Of Thinking Big" by David Schwartz. I still highly recommend these books to anyone who wants to do great things in their life.

At TripleClicks we are fortunate to have one of the world's most famous success experts and authors, Jack Zufelt, as one of our ECAs.

Like Napoleon Hill and David Schwartz , Jack opens your eyes to your true potential. Indeed, what Jack teaches is so powerful he has been interviewed on over 2,000 radio and TV talk shows. PBS aired a special about him that was broadcast via satellite to 127 countries. The United States Senate honored him for teaching Americans how to achieve more success in their personal lives and careers. He was even awarded the Presidential Medal of Merit by the President of the United States!

Jack's books and CDs can literally change your life and I highly recommend them to all our affiliates!

Success / Failure Part II

Over the last 60 years, literally millions of people have participated in Network Marketing, MLMs, and Affiliate Marketing businesses. Why do some people go to the top while others seem to struggle endlessly hardly make a dime? Well, there are no simple, easy answers to that question. However, through many years of trial and error, and hundreds of millions of dollars spent on figuring out what works and what doesn't, SFI has a very clear picture of what leads to success.

SFI's president, Mr. Gery Carson, has distilled all of this into what he calls the  "SFI Rules Of Success". And so it's very simple: If you want to SUCCEED, you must follow these rules. If you want to risk FAILURE, ignore them. These rules can be applied to any business.

Here are a couple more rules of success! (more to follow)

Rule #4

Work with the Workers

Way too many people focus on QUANTITY. They sponsor dozens, even hundreds of affiliates–which is great–but it is ultimately QUALITY that is the real key. Once you've found or developed 3-5 topnotch affiliates, you're going to see a lot of great things happen with your commission check.

How do you develop quality affiliates? It's real simple: WORK WITH THE WORKERS! 

When you see people who are working SFI in your group, work with them! Tip: You can easily locate these people by checking your "My Movers" list on your SFI homepage daily. Support them closely, and train them to do the things you do so that you are creating duplication and maximum leverage.

It's of course more natural for us to let the workers in our group just do their own thing. After all, they got active without you even telling them to, they're already sponsoring new affiliates, referring TC members, etc. They don't need your help or support–or so you think.

Meanwhile, you're spending all your time trying to get the people who obviously don't "get it" to do something. As the old saying goes, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make it drink—yet you continue to try.

You need to know that this is exactly the opposite of what you should be doing to build a successful business. I'm not saying you shouldn't follow up with those who don't immediately get active with SFI. You should. But don't spend ALL or even the majority of your time with this. And DEFINITELY DO NOT IGNORE your workers!

Indeed, the way you create those 3-5 "top-gun" affiliates that you need is by treating them LIKE YOUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON THEM!

If you're not in touch with your best, hardest-working affiliates at least every week (email, phone calls, chatroom, or whatever), I'm sorry, but you're trying to win a race with a car that only has one wheel!

How many affiliates will you have to go through to find your top guns? That's of course difficult to say. What I can tell you though is that they're out there (or are ALREADY in your group), and you'll develop them so long as you deny your natural instincts and apply the proper focus (work with the workers!).

Just like in a deck of playing cards, you KNOW there are four aces. If you start working your way through the deck, the first ace may not come up for a while, but eventually it will so long as you keep going through the deck. And if you don't quit, you'll eventually locate FOUR aces. It's the very same principle with SFI; the aces are there.

Keep sponsoring affiliates, work with your workers, and success will happen.

Tip: Don't waste time on skeptics or pessimists. They will NOT succeed in SFI or any other similar endeavor. They do not possess the qualities of a winner (this includes "rocking-chair advisors" who talk and talk, seem to know all the answers, but never act).

"Eagles don't flock–you have to find them one at a time." -H. Ross Perot

Rule #7

YOU make it happen, no one else

Not only is this a key rule in SFI, but I consider this to be amongst THE most important lessons in life. NO ONE ELSE can make you successful. It's all up to you. YOU are the "master of your destiny" and responsible for your own success. Period.

Conversely, there's not anyone or anything that will make you a failure. It does no good to blame the economy, your education, or whatever bad breaks you've had in your life. Doing so means taking on a victim's mentality. DON'T EVER DO THIS. I can guarantee you that many thousands of people have succeeded despite having it much worse, so don't make excuses and don't convince yourself that you're somehow a victim.

And the grass isn't any greener on the other side either. You have now (or can acquire) everything you need to be successful. Just remember that it's up to you and nobody else. Then go out and do it.

Now, for those who might be thinking, "well, that's easy for you to say, Gery!"…the fact is, I've achieved what most people would say is extraordinary success, but it was not handed to me, not by any stretch. I come from a very small Nebraska town and very humble beginnings. When I started in business I had no business education, no experience, and no money to invest. And it took four long years (the first two moonlighting into the wee hours of the night while holding down a full-time job), before I ever saw a profit. I had no mentors, no great upline leaders or sponsors to guide me, nor any wealthy relatives to come to my aid. But I decided I was going to become successful and I did. And I've put in the work every day for nearly 25 years now to stay successful.

So...it's not your sponsor. It's not your upline. It's not the economy. It's not the government. It's not the compensation plan. It's not any of these things or any other obstacles perceived to be in your way. If you want to become successful, you can go around the obstacles, go over, go under, or go right through them. Success is yours if you want it, but ONLY YOU control this. Always remember: "If it's to be, it's up to me."

"I used to say, 'things cost too much.' Then my teacher straightened me out on that by saying, 'The problem isn't that things cost too much. The problems is that you can't afford it.' That's when I finally understood that the problem wasn't it-–the problem was me!" -Jim Rohn

Success / Failure

Over the last 60 years, literally millions of people have participated in Network Marketing, MLMs, and Affiliate Marketing businesses. Why do some people go to the top while others seem to struggle endlessly hardly make a dime? Well, there are no simple, easy answers to that question. However, through many years of trial and error, and hundreds of millions of dollars spent on figuring out what works and what doesn't, SFI has a very clear picture of what leads to success.



SFI's president, Mr. Gery Carson, has distilled all of this into what he calls the  "SFI Rules Of Success". And so it's very simple: If you want to SUCCEED, you must follow these rules. If you want to risk FAILURE, ignore them. These rules can be applied to any business.

Here are a couple of the Rules of Success right from the SFI training module. ( more to follow in the days to come! )

Rule #1: Treat your business...like a business!

If you purchased a franchise, would you expect it to make money for you if you only worked it a few hours a week? Or if you didn't get trained? Or if you only tried for a few months? Or if you didn't follow the proven guidelines of the creators of the franchise?

Of course not! That's ridiculous. SFI is no different. Success requires commitment.

I am continually amazed at how many people think that money will somehow magically fall from the sky without work, without plans, or without an earnest commitment. All these elements MUST be present.

The fact is, anything worthwhile in life requires effort and commitment. If that were not true, we'd all be the perfect weight, we'd all have perfect relationships, and we'd all be highly educated. It's the same thing with having your own business.

In short, if you treat your SFI business as a serious, full-time business, put in the effort and commit to its success, it will become a serious, full-time business.

"You need to make a commitment, and once you make it, then life will give you some answers." -Les Brown

Rule #3: Lead By Example

If you want your affiliates sponsoring affiliates, referring TC members, etc., then make sure YOU are are doing these things. Do these things and become proficient in these things so you can show and teach your affiliates the best ways to do them.

In the key area of duplication, your affiliates are definitely watching! Show them what it means to be a strong, active sponsor and THEY will become strong, active sponsors and help you further your growth and profits.

Leading by example works in the negative, too, of course. Want a downline of affiliates who do nothing? Then do nothing and that's what you'll likely get!

So...the rule is real simple: Whatever you want THEM to do, YOU do, because they are following your lead!

"A leader is someone who is ahead of the pack. Even if it is only by one inch. They are doing, or have done, what they want or expect others to do. They are not watchers nor do they wait around. They take action...proper action....a lot of proper action! And they never give up!" -Jack M. Zufelt
