Gifting to Build Your Team & Increase Activity

Looking for an easy way to encourage your team members to get active in SFI? Consider gifting TCredits, ECommergy Passes, LaunchPacks, or TripleClicks Gift Certificates to your Personally Sponsored Affiliates (PSAs).

A great method to help grow your business and strengthen your team, gifting can convey a warm welcome from you to a promising new affiliate. You can give rewards to your PSAs who achieve specific goals (CV earnings, rank advancement, sponsoring a new affiliate, completing a sale, etc.). You can even give a gift that satisfies an affiliate's sales quota level requirement to a hard-working affiliate struggling this month with lackluster sales.

Over time and when used smartly, gifts can also help nudge many "fence sitters" in your downline to take action they may otherwise not have. What's more, by introducing your team to various aspects of the SFI Program, you're encouraging your affiliates to become active in their own businesses, strengthening your entire downline and substantially growing your own commission checks!

PLUS...any TC Gift Certificates not redeemed by your recipients are re-deposited back to your Gift Fund balance (TC Account), making these gifts an especially budget friendly, NO-RISK option!

Issuing gifts is easy:

1. Add funds your account (TC Account), using the Gift Fund Manager.

2. At your Genealogy Report, click the GIFT tab, and select the BUY NOW link next to your chosen affiliate(s).

3. Select the gift you want to give and click the green ISSUE button.

The SFI system automatically deducts the amount of your gift from your TC Account balance, and sends your affiliate a special e-mail notifying them of the gift you've offered, along with instructions on what they should do next to claim it.

NOTE: You can also issue Gift Certificates to your Personally Referred Members (PRMs) to encourage them to explore their Zing Membership. You can issue Gift Certificates to your PRMs via your Gift Fund Manager.

*You must be at least a Level 10 SFI Affiliate to use the gifting feature.

The Zing Network: YOUR Online Business Presence!

As one of our affiliates, you’re partnered with one of the fastest growing and most popular e-commerce platforms on the Web today: the Zing Network. And we want you to think of all the sites within Zing as YOUR online business stores. Zing sites—such as TripleClicks.com, Rewardical.com, and Flexxity.com, for example—offer tens of thousands of products and services in a variety of categories from trusted sellers, merchants, and providers around the world. Astro Auctions, Pricebenders, and Eager Zebra Games offer members fun, excitement, and cool prizes. And ECommergy helps online entrepreneurs around the world become eCommerce pros and achieve success. All of this means that your online business has something for everyone!

Because Zing sites make up your own online business presence, when you buy products and services for yourself or others, you should ALWAYS shop your own stores (TripleClicks, Flexxity, Rewardical businesses, etc.) first!

If you owned a bakery, for example, you wouldn't be buying cinnamon rolls from the bakery down the street. If you owned an office supplies store, you wouldn't drive to a competitor's store to buy a stapler or paperclips. If you owned a landscaping service, you wouldn't hire a landscaper from another service.

It's the exact same thing as an SFI affiliate, especially when it comes to products you're ALREADY buying. Your Zing stores and service providers probably carry many products and offer most services you're ALREADY purchasing from a local business or freelancer. You should transfer those purchases...to YOUR store!

Remember, we're not talking about spending extra money...just changing from where you're buying.

So what's in it for you? What benefit do you get out of buying from your own store?

For starters, your purchases at Flexxity.com, from merchants listed at the Rewardical.com search engine, at TripleClicks, etc. count toward satisfying your SFI Sales Quota required for Leveling Up in rank and opening new earning opportunities, perks, and benefits! You also earn Rewardical Tokens (RTs) with every purchase, redeemable for Bitcoin, gift cards, silver, and other goodies—even cash!

But it's goes much, much further than that. The fact is, SFI's success—and YOUR success as an SFI affiliate—is tied directly to the success of the Zing Network. And the more successful each Zing product and service site is, the more successful SFI's affiliates—and YOU—will be!

So...a popular and successful Zing Network means:

• Easier sponsoring of SFI affiliates
• Easier referrals of members
• More products & services
• Better prices
• Lower shipping costs
• and MORE...

...which ALL leads to larger affiliate commissions of course!

SFI Time-Tested Tip: Do Something to Grow Your Business Every Day

You will not create a successful business by thinking about it. You will create a successful business ONLY by DOING...by TAKING ACTION every day. Every day, no matter what, make sure you're doing SOMETHING to further your business. If you're not, you're not even in the game, you're kidding yourself. No business becomes successful without daily focus and action.

What can you do daily? Here are just a few ideas:

• Follow up with recent prospective members.
• Review your SFI Building Blocks every day
• Send out some E-Cards.
• Try out a new SFI Marketing Aid.
• Send out some postcards.
• Review the LaunchPad Lessons.
• Read the latest ecommerce articles at ECommergy.com.
• Send out a newsletter to your PSAs.
• Read an SFI training article you haven't read yet (or review one you have).
• Contact your sponsor, and let him or her know what you're doing.
• Go to Google and search for articles on how to become a better marketer.
• Browse the Zing Network for new products and services you can recommend to your customers.
• Review the latest posts on the SFI Forum.
• Review your Genealogy and Member List.
• Review the Hit Tracker page to maximize your marketing efforts.
• Start a co-op and invite your PSAs to join.
• Add some prospects to your Rewardical ECA database.
• Review your "My Movers" report (on your BUILD Building Block).

BONUS TIP: Don't forget to use your SFI Power Tools (https://www.sfimg.com/PowerTools/)! Put the power of key codes, hit tracking, your own advertising co-op, the PSA Mailer, the CSA Mailer, reassignments, and more to work for your business. To not use these best-of-the-best tools is to operate your SFI business with two arms tied behind your back!

"Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day, while failure is simply a few errors in judgement, repeated every day. It is the cumulative weight of our disciplines and our judgements that leads us to either fortune or failure."

Introduction to Internet Sales in SFI

If you become an SFI Affiliate, you’re partnered with one of the fastest growing and most popular e-commerce platforms on the Web today, the Zing Network. As discussed in more details at the LaunchPad Lessons, Zing sites such as TripleClicks.com, Rewardical.com, and Flexxity.com offer tens of thousands of products and services in a variety of categories from trusted sellers, merchants, and providers around the world. Astro Auctions, Pricebenders, and Eager Zebra Games offer members fun, excitement, and cool prizes. And ECommergy helps online entrepreneurs around the world become ecommerce pros and achieve success. At Zing, there's truly something for everyone—and that makes online selling both lucrative and fun!

But what if you're not a natural salesperson? What if you don’t have any experience in advertising on the Internet?

Welcome to SFI

Here, you’ll learn everything you need to know! In fact, you're already off to a good start just by reading these LaunchPad lessons. Perhaps the most surprising thing you'll learn is that it's really pretty easy to get started marketing your business right away...

A basic marketing method:

Simply point your potential customers to one of your Zing Network property Gateway links—embedded with your SFI Affiliate ID—as shown below:
    • TripleClicks Main Page
    https://www.tripleclicks.com/12177280
  • Rewardical
    https://www.sfi4.com/12177280/rwgw
    • ECommergy
    https://www.sfi4.com/12177280/ec
    • Astro Auctions
    https://www.sfi4.com/12177280/Astro
    • Eager Zebra
    https://www.tripleclicks.com/12177280/EagerZebra

These Gateways will introduce your prospective members to the given property you've chosen to promote. Any prospective customer who signs up (for free) is automatically registered as your own Personally Referred Member (PRM), and you will earn commissions whenever they make a qualified purchase at any Zing Network site...for life!

Another easy marketing method:

If you'd like a more targeted approach, try promoting a specific product to your audience.
For example:

    1. After logging into TripleClicks.com, click the SHOP option at the top of the page, and browse the store's product listings for one you think your potential customers would like.

    2. On that product's details page, click the SFI Toolbox button for a special "Promote this listing" link that includes your SFI ID number so you’re credited with commissions earned from any sales. Just copy and paste that link in your emails, social media posts, etc. You can also click the Create Banner link for a product banner you can use on your blog or third-party websites. NOTE: You can learn more about the SFI Toolbox in this lesson.

    3. Each time someone clicks your link (or banner) and signs up for free, they automatically become your Personally Referred Member (PRM). And when they purchase the product—and EVERY TIME thereafter that they purchase ANY qualified product at any Zing site—YOU earn a Commission!
What's more, your work is now done! SFI takes care of processing your PRM's payment, fulfills the order, sends the product directly to your customer—all at no cost to you! And, of course, they email you each time you make a sale so you always know how much you've earned.

Best wishes and happy marketing!

Why Ecommergy is a Great Product for SFI Affiliates

Great price. A full-access monthly subscription is available for just $9.97 (just $.33/day) and comes with 480 VP. Or, for just $19.97, you can get a premium subscription that comes with 962 VP and marketing samples. And if you want to go straight to EA status with 1500 VP, you can choose our $29.97 premium subscription (less than a dollar day!) that comes with even more marketing samples. More on ECommergy marketing samples later.

* Maximum "bang for your buck." That is, with an ECommergy subscription, you get the most VersaPoints and CV for your dollar. Instead of $36.25 for a 1500 VP amount of TCredits, for example, you get that same 1500 VP with just a $29.97 subscription, a savings of $6.28 a month/$75.36 a year.

* Get into profit fast. If you have a subscription, with our 100% CV Direct Commissions, just two sales a month puts you in profit. And if you're focused on selling ECommergy subscriptions, your profit can keep growing monthly via recurring income from the previous subscriptions sold.


 
* We LOVE TCredits and so do our affiliates...which explains why it's our #1 selling product BY FAR. However, games and auctions (the primary uses for TCredits) aren't for everyone. Also, TCredits are often, especially to new affiliates, confusing and nebulous. A subscription to a product like ECommergy, on the other hand, has clear benefits (i.e. you've just started an ecommerce business; what better than to have experts in ecommerce showing you the way to success and profits?!). Indeed, it dovetails exquisitely with being an SFI affiliate!

* With it's clear benefits, ECommergy subscriptions can become a real focal point for your team in SFI. That is, focusing on this product and promoting this product within in your group may deliver great energy and momentum. A clean, simple product–needed by every affiliate and consumed monthly–is a recipe for growing a big team and big commissions. Choice is great, but a single-minded FOCUS can be an extremely powerful elixir.

* Great prospects are everywhere! There are tens of millions of businesses across the world, both online and offline. And almost everyone needs what ECommergy will be providing. Think locally-owned businesses all over the world. Every one of them not using at least some form of ecommerce (e.g. using social media for marketing), is leaving potentially vast sums of money on the table every year. It's an Internet world. A huge and growing percentage of adults worldwide have a smartphone and access the internet regularly. Businesses that don't cater to these customers are missing out and are being squeezed out by businesses that DO. An inexpensive ECommergy subscription is the smart remedy!

* ECommergy is a 100% digital product. So there are no shipping costs or hassles, and delivery is instant worldwide. When you sell a subscription (or give someone a free trial subscription–more on this in a moment), your customer can be enjoying it within seconds, no matter where they live in the world!

* ECommergy comes paired with a powerful and unique new marketing system we've built to make generating sales of subscriptions (and the recurring commissions that come with them) simple and easy! See full details on the marketing system in the section below.

* There are of millions upon millions of people across the world that would love to learn how to make money on the internet. And, yes, SFI offers a superb online opportunity, but there's a big difference with ECommergy. When you market ECommergy, you're not marketing a "biz opp" with all the attached stigmas. No, with ECommergy, you're simply marketing solutions for those who'd like to get started in ecommerce (or expand their current ecommerce efforts). So share away with family, co-workers, friends, etc.! And maybe best of all, you can market subscriptions to ECommergy with zero obligation with the free trial "day passes" which is a key component of our powerful new marketing system. 

 

* With a standard subscription at just $9.97, instant access, and no shipping costs, sales can happen much easier than with many products. Indeed, a less-than-$10 item is practically an "impulse buy," a product that many prospects will be happily willing to try and continue to subscribe to every month.

* An ECommergy subscription is not some "frivolous" product that is quickly consumed and forgotten about like so many products people buy. On the contrary, an ECommergy subscription can truly be invaluable and can represent an investment in one's future. And people love to invest in themselves because of the potential future returns on their investment. When you sell a subscription to ECommergy to someone, feel great, because you may have given them a life-enriching, life-changing gift!

* ECommergy dovetails perfectly with Localvantia. Ecommerce is growing by leaps and bounds every year, yet the majority of retail businesses have not yet put ecommerce to work for them (to their detriment). You now have TWO powerful products, in Localvantia and ECommergy, to offer to local vendors to help them and you both to boost your earnings.
