A very good question indeed. This reminds me of the situation that occurs with many new affiliates at SFI. The first time that one joins he/she is greeted with tasks to do which when accomplished, the EXECUTIVE AFFILIATE status is achieved. You will find that since there had been a lot of promises which were aired during the time of advertising, the affiliate is so energetic to the extent that he/she can go up to the topmost leadership status. This is very good and commendable too, nevertheless after

This is a reality that we live with everyday and it comes due to some facts which are,

i. In a group that you target with information about SFI opportunities, you will find out
that 80% don't know what you're talking about while 20% know what you're talking about.
People out there don't see the same opportunities that you see in SFI. Sponsor them and you
have a lot of work to do.
ii Of the 20% that know what you're talking about, only a quarter have

This is a tough one indeed, nevertheless the best trial you can put forward is through using what you have to the best of your ability.

Yes indeed, this is the way to go. When you address a new PSA with information from the affiliate profile, there is an automatic impression that you create. One is that the PSA feels important since you are addressing him/her with his/her own information that is displayed from the profile. Secondly the affiliate gets the feeling that you are a person who knows exactly what you are doing which is a direct result of using the affiliate profile information in addressing the PSA.
Finally, when you

This is a reality in many circles and to get past it you must have strategies in place that will make your team members feel at ease. The first major hurdle is ignorance, they don't know success and they fear something that they have not ventured into. After seeing success in you as their team leader, the game doesn't end there. It goes further to a level of you mixing up with those who have equal success or are ahead of you. This has an instant impact in that they come to reality with terms that

Ads should link to your own webpage/blog and not your SFI Gateway. In getting to know why, please refer to the following facts,

i) The SFI Gateway will carry the same story all along. The person who will be looking at your
SFI gateway will have come across many more meaning that boredom will creep in before
seeing what you have to offer. Once a person opens a link and sees the same page opening up

Definitely you are certain of success when you build a team on your own spoken language. If you're to make an impact in your team, you must have a feeling of all the members in it. This can only be practical if you understand each other, and the language barrier will hinder this achievement.
Building a team entails a lot of activities for yourself. Your own success is subject to the success of each of the member that you bring in. You don't wanna leave this to chance by having team members speaking

This will definitely be a very hard task for you to undertake. Elevating your SFI advertisements above all the competing business opportunities out there calls for proper scrutiny of the other business opportunities. This is due to the fact that advertisement trends change day in day out. You have to find out what other business opportunities are offering before you make a move. This will go a long way in preparing you to achieve your goal.

Try to use both approaches. It might look confusing when this is said, but believe me it is not. To attract prospects, you give a brief overview which should be in such a way that you will leave the prospect eager to hear more. This is when you will come in with more lengthy detailed information which will be highly expected from you.

In my advertising campaigns, is it better to provide more or less information in my ads and why?

Any time that you think about advertising, remember the following facts,

i. You're dealing with people most of whom don't have time to read long stories.
ii. Should you want to impress them, then you have to give all information that is required in
the game.
iii. You're supposed to create that eagerness in them of wanting to read more from you.

Having taken note of the above, then the strategy comes in in the following way,
