Solo ads is one way to use emails without spamming. Many online marketers have built extensive double opt-in email lists, meaning the people receiving the emails have consented to receive them. The list owners will then charge a fee to send out an email to everyone on their list for you.

This is one of the easiest ways to start sending emails without spamming; send it someone else's list. You can have one of your links inside the email go to your own opt-in list and then you can continue

I am online at the Affiliate Center and see that someone just signed up under my link and is online too. What should I do?

I have an email template I keep on file that I send them via the email they've used to register with SFI. If I use their registered email and it bounces back undeliverable, then I wait until I send out a new PSA Team Mail.

In my template letter, I welcome them to SFI and offer them the links to my new affiliate training videos on my blog.

I then point them to SBI Basics and the LaunchPad, and invite them to follow along with the videos for a better understanding of the system.

When should we give up on CSAs who don't respond to our messages or do anything?

I never just concentrate on my most active CSAs. When I send out my team mailers, I send out two - one to ALL of my PSAs and one to ALL of my CSAs. Just because they're not responsive doesn't mean they're not doing anything at all.

Some of my PSAs and CSAs will go on a long hiatus and then all of a sudden, they show back up in my Movers list again.

You never know what their situations are behind the scenes, and what might spark their interest to jump back in and try to start

I would have to say from (too many) years of experience, that SFI has the most comprehensive business plan out there for earning an income online. The way the system is set up, it's almost like a "try before you buy" plan. Once you sign up - which is 100% free - you're given the most detailed plans to be successful that I've seen yet with any other business model.

The LaunchPad, SBI Basics and the Internet Income Course take you through everything you need to know to get started

I like helping not only my downline, but my upline/sponsors as well. Because this is a Network marketing company, I believe it's important that your sponsors know you're doing everything you can to network with everyone.

So when I put a post on my blog, sometimes it has to do with SFI directly, and other times it has to do with marketing and advertising in general, but I always try to make it valuable, informative and encouraging.

I try to help people as much as possible so

Should I reach out to the affiliates on my 2nd, 3rd, 4th, etc. generations...or leave support to their sponsor?

Absolutely contact and reach out to your downline. I email my CSAs the same emails as my PSAs. Sometimes I simply send out an mailer to my entire Genealogy just to stay in touch.

Also, the videos I've done have been helpful to other EAs who have used them to help train their PSAs, which they wouldn't have done had I not kept in touch with my entire downline.

I figure, we're all in this together. I can help other Affiliates with their downline just as easily as I can help

Hi let my new affiliates know that I'm always here to help them. I think it's important to show that you're active in your business and you give them instruction on how to copy what you're doing.

My welcome letter reads:

Hi team!

As your new Sponsor so I want to take a minute and introduce myself.

I've just completed my first round with SFI, a full month of learning the business!

As I learn new things inside the SFI business, I've been making

I was actually having a hard time trying to explain where to start and what to do next, so I made screencast videos and posted them on YouTube and my blog.

The videos walk my new affiliates through the initial processes of completing the LaunchPad and the To-Do List as well as signing up as a WAV3 member and how to use TripleClicks.

I've found this very successful in helping to actually show new affiliates how the initial program works. I also encourage them to email me if

Do you need to have your own website (if so, why) or are the Gateway websites provided by SFI adequate?

While it's not required to have your own website, it's actually an essential tool to marketing online.

WordPress is easy to set up, and aside from the low cost of registering a domain name, WP is a free platform with lots of free themes that are easy to customize.

Every post/article you write (or have written for you) about online marketing can have text links pointing to your SFI and TripleClicks gateways.

You can distribute these articles to article directories
