Great Things You Can Do Differently in SFI Business

Well, I have been in SFI business for quite some time now and the last time I did a thorough evaluation of my business vis-à-vis the time I have spent on it, I discovered many things I would have done differently given what I now know. Foremost among these things are:

1. I would earn enough VPs in the first 24 hours to give me a Fast Track badge.
2. I would study my LaunchPad with greater care.
3. I would give the best attention to duplication/building my downline.
4. I would take pains to read/study the business more intensely.
5. I would invest more time/resources.
6. I would interact more with fellow affiliates more.
7. I would de-emphasize money making in favor of building the business.
8. I would take steps to promote my business more vigorously.
9. I would become ECA pretty quickly.
10. I would without fail log into my account and earn at least 10 VPs daily.

These are some of the most prominent things I think I would do differently if given a second chance to start all over. 

How to Get New PSAs Commit to SFI Business

Your first duty as a sponsor is to let all your new PSAs know that SFI is a business, a real business which every affiliate joins in order to earn income. Let them know that SFI works for all affiliates when they earn income from the actions they take in the business daily. These actions can be classified broadly as follows:

 
1. You earn income from selling your own products/services.
2. You earn income from commissions from helping to sell other affiliates’ products.
3. You earn income from earning VersaPoints for your sales/actions activities.
4. You earn residual income as commissions from the activities of all your affiliates (PSAs and CSAs).
5. You earn income on VersaPoints “matching” from the activities of your affiliates up to 12 generations downline.
6. You earn residual income as commissions from the sales made by the E-Commerce Associates, ECAs you introduced into the business.
7. All these commissions are aggregated and paid to you monthly.

To be sure that they earn these incomes, these here below are things they must be committed to and routinely do in order to earn big in the business.

- Log in daily and earn as many VersaPoints, VP as you can.
- Do your daily, weekly and monthly activities routinely to earn VP.
- Advertise/promote your Gateways to recruit PSAs.
- Use all other effective marketing methods to recruit PSAs.
- Promote/advertise TripleClicks products/services to make sales.
- Take advantage of all the marketing tools/methods SFI provides freely to make sales and recruit PSAs.
- Earn enough VP monthly to become Executive Affiliate, EA and maintain a minimum of that rank monthly.
- Read widely in SFI and take all income-boosting lessons as part of the tools provided for the business.
- Join the forums and share your ideas and worries with fellow affiliates.
- Take advantage of the tips SFI gives daily.
- Belong to a2a and share ideas and tips with fellow affiliates.
- Participate in PriceBenders auctions.
- Have fun and learn the business from Trivia/Zebra games provided.

 

If you manage to get all your new PSAs to understand thoroughly the foregoing, it is possible to get them fully committed to the business.

Why Safelists are better for Your Ads than Text Ad Exchanges

According to Wikipedia, an ad exchange is a technology platform that facilitates the bidded buying and selling of online media advertising inventory from multiple ad networks. The approach is technology-driven as opposed to the historical approach of negotiating price on media inventory. Ad exchanges can be useful to both buyers (advertisers and agencies) and sellers (online publishers) because of the efficiencies they provide. The most prominent platforms of ad exchanges online are, AppNexus, RightMedia and DoubleClick. Only professional and experienced marketers can use ad exchanges with good results and on more structured and bigger businesses too.

Whereas Safelists have to do with E-mail advertising which are easier to use and less technical for most online advertisers. They are also very suitable for small businesses to advertise very widely online particularly when you factor in that many Safelists have very large Directories with a very wide reach. Many are also very free for marketers to use. For a business like SFI, I believe Safelists are better and more effective to use because of the peculiar nature of the business.

 

How to Build Your SFI Business outside the Affiliate Center

If you can’t access the SFI Affiliate Center, it means that you are not an SFI Affiliate. If however you are an Affiliate and you lost temporary access, that in itself is a rare occurrence in SFI. Since that is temporary, you can be building your business on a temporary scenario. That lends credence to the assumption that you may either be a Personally Referred Member, PRM, or an E-Commerce Associate ECA. In that case, you do not need the Affiliate Center to do business in SFI. As a PRM, all you need is to bookmark the TripleClicks site and to log in there anytime you want to make purchases at TripleClicks. As for E-Commerce Associate, you have unlimited access to the site your products are displayed and you can do business there 24/7.

I do not know any other way you can build your SFI business if you can’t log into SFI Affiliate Center besides the ways I have highlighted above. In addition to these ways however, you can also log into the Trivia Games Center to play the various games and take part in Pricebenders auctions even if you are not an SFI affiliate. What all these mean is that you can do business, bid at auctions and play Eager Zebra games even if you are not an SFI Affiliate and you can’t have access to SFI Affiliate Center.

Since SFI operates daily 24/7 all-year-round, barring servers’ downtime, you can transact your business, advertise and make referrals all-year-round to grow your business even if you can’t access the Affiliate Center.
