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.

(( 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.
