SFI Made Easy

[bbebiz]

This post/thread was way out of date due to SFI product changes.
I tried to update it but found it impossible - may try to use IAHBE Standing order or Affiliate Mastery instead later. - bralland
(Or if SFI ever comes out with some other 10 SVP or more monthly or Standing Order product, then that can be used.
VeryVIP International Resellers Package likely could also be a candidate for the scheme to replace Veriuni Pro ISP service.)

Do You Think SFI is Difficult?

SFI is such a powerful opportunity that most of us try
to make it much harder than it really needs to be.

Would you be much more excited about SFI if you could
see a simple and very inexpensive way to make it work?

If so, please read on ...

Don't Have Much Money?
I'm going to show you a simple way to become EA and stay
MIQ and it won't cost you any extra money at all! In fact,
it's probably going to save you money!

If you don't know what EA is, you need to go through the
Smart Start program, but basically you have to be EA to
make full commissions (and residual income) on your sales
and the sales of the people that you sponsor.


Don't Like to Sell?

Did you know that you can be EA and stay EA with only ONE
sale? And I don't mean one sale a month, either, I'm talking
just ONE sale TOTAL!

Yes, that's right, I said just ONE SALE, TOTAL!


Have I got your Attention?

Ok, here is how to do this in just two steps.

1) Switch your Internet to the Veriuni Pro Service

2) Get ONE person who is not in SFI to purchase
the Veriuni Pro ISP service (this is your one sale)

That's it. That's all that would be required for you to be MIQ
every month that you and the other person stay with the Veriuni
Pro Internet Service.

Keep in mind that when "selling" someone on the internet service,
you are not trying to get them in your business, you are just
offering a highly regarded, competitively priced, alternative to
a product they already use. If you are in the US or Canada, take
a friend or relative out to dinner and talk to them about it
(deduct the dinner from your taxes, of course).

Everyone that I have heard from, likes the Internet Service, so
you should feel confident promoting it. (I'd use it myself, but
I'm one of those broadband folks).

Remember, you only *have* to make ONE sale! EVER!


So is there any FINE PRINT?

The Veriuni Internet Service is only available in the US and
Canada.

If you live outside of these countries you can not subscribe.
Also, some people either like their service or use broadband.
What can these people do?

Simple.

Make just ONE MORE sale of the Internet Service to someone in
the US or Canada. Remember, not a sale every month, just ONE
more sale TOTAL!

So if you are not in the US, or you don't want to change ISPs,
you must make TWO sales.

Not 2 sales a month, or a year, just TWO sales total!


What about Getting Affiliates Under Me?

Don't I have to "Sell" people on SFI to get them to join?

Actually, you aren't selling, with SFI you are GIVING.

Just give Free stuff away - like the SIM package or the
Free Internet Income Course.

Once people sign up (and they will, if you put it in front of
folks), follow up with them and show them easy and inexpensive
ways to make this great opportunity work for them (Like this
one!). Some will "get it" and some won't - and that's OK.

You only need a few active people to make money with SFI.


[b[Bottom Line - and Here's Where it gets Good![/b]

Make just ONE sale (or at most, two) period, ever, finito!
Then show others how they can do this too.


Get three other people who are willing to make just ONE sale
too and you will become a PTL (Power Team Leader).


When you become PTL, you will be cashing in the
"Banked" shares of the PTL bonus pool (1 share
for each month that you were MIQ).

At the current rate of $22.95 (Aug 03) you will
get back MORE THAN YOU PAID in for your Internet
Service!

Not only that, but you will continue to earn the
PTL bonus each and every month! Plus the commissions
from those people you sponsored.

Can you appreciate this? Free Internet Service
and a growing business opportunity?

Do you hear the "knock, knock" sound of opportunity?
If not, call the doctor, I think you just flatlined!

(He he)

Repeat this process a few more times (while teaching your
affiliates to do the same) and soon you will become a GL
(Group Leader).

The Group Leader Bonus for August 2003 was $1138.39
which is just their bonus. This is in addition to their normal
commissions!


Summary

This is just *one* way to take advantage of the opportunities
that SFI offers. I have been with SFI for a year now and I'm
still thinking of new ways to benefit from this awesome program.

Is there more to SFI? You bet there is! Lot's more. There are
other great products and more ways of making money, but don't
get ahead of yourself.

Don't try to learn or do everything at once. Take the time to
learn one thing well and give it try.

The opportunity *is* here.

It's up to *you* to take advantage of it!


Take Care,
steve

P.S. And don't forget the TAX Benefits of having your own business!
Follow the rules and deduct office and even vacation expenses!

My hats off to Steve for that one. Excellent!

[Elmarc]

This one looks to be a keeper! It seems to be worth adding to the training site.

Thank you bbebiz or is it Steve? that was the best boost I had since I joined. you are fantastic. Thanks a million times. If you have more like that in your beautiful head pls let us know.

[sarsuelo]

Excellent post, Steve!

I just passed this on to my team. :)

[omeomi]

A practical, common sense answer to the most asked question of
"What do I do?"

Excellent!

[sarsuelo]

I love this thread so much!

I want to keep it on top a little longer. 8-)

[Fire2004]

Another idea that struck me the other is this. Most of us have work in the day right until we reach 2 or more shares of GL right? Why not just invest some money in buying one sample of the SFI cleaning liquid. Try it and then just reccommend it to your work place cleaning crew.

Once they have a standing order, they will be wielding incredible purchasing power and your sales will skyrocket. Just an idea after some person from Amway came over to demonstrate their products. Imagine what would happen if one person just introduced Veriuni Cleaners to a factory that uses such cleaning liquids by the bottle daily.

Perhaps SFI could give us more "printer material" for those that require it. But anyway this would be great for my US affiliates I suppose.

[who67]

I have been away from the Dboard for most of the summer pretty much.
Today after reading the above I just realized how much I have been missing.

I am going to send this letter to my downline and see what happens.

Thanks Steve for the wonderfull letter.

everyone who uses this letter post back in a month or two with your results.

Excellent post.....

And yet another reason why us "Brits" and non-US affiliates are losing out and feel second rate as we can never take advantage of anything like this to progress within SFI......

Sorry, it's personal

[bbebiz]

Fittingly, the IAHBE thought of the day today just happened to be:


"Only you can hold yourself back, only you can stand in your own
way...Only you can help yourself."

Mikhail Strabo

======================================

Let's keep this going. I want to see how many "Views" we can
get on this thread.

Maybe if the sales of the Internet Service go up drastically,
Gery will send me a big bonus :).

Actually, I will be happy if just a few people are able to see the
possibilities and realize that most obstacles are self imposed.


Take Care Folks,
steve

[eagleye]

Squiffy....

And yet another reason why us "Brits" and non-US affiliates are losing out and feel second rate as we can never take advantage of anything like this to progress within SFI......

=========================

But if you manage to find someone from the US who buys the ISP service, it doesn't matter anymore where you live.

In general I agree with you that non-US members have disadvantages compared to US members. E.g. payment of commissions. Take you cheque to a bank in Brazil and you pay a lot of money before they pay you the amount of money of the cheque. PayPal would be nice:-))

Yes.

Just make sure that you look for any changes made to SFI since these were written and make any updates needed.

[I agree with myjoy. There are so many pages and so much informatrion at first, it's hard to focus. Who's supposed to help us along anyway? I finally decided to focus on one product per month or two -- try it and promote it. I intend to help my new people with strong encouragement (don't want to overwhelm, though) to run until you SOAR!!

[DEAnderson]

Hi Steve,

This sounds good, but I have Internet access with Bell South. Their standard basic service with free accelerator is $14.95/mo. Unlimited access, 5 email accounts w/aliases equaling 10 accounts. I also get a $10/mo. discount since Bell South is also my telephone provider, so I only pay $4.95/mo. I don't use the web hosting because I don't want an URL with the web host name along with my business name.

So can you come up with another way that I can make SFI work without my purchasing something every month to keep my EA status? I really want this to work, but I don't have a "list" and don't know anyone to send this business to.

I first joined SFI in 1999 when it was still called Six-Figure Income and never was able to do anything with it. I have since lost my first ID number/password and became a new member with another ID number without knowing that I was doing so. But since I became a new member again, I figured I would try to work it this time. I feel that it must be a good business since it has been around so long.

I'm not knocking Veriuni ISP, it is just that $4.95 against $14.95 is still $10 a month I don't have to pay.

Regards,

[omeomi]

There are only two ways to become MIQ:

1. purchase 10 SVP of SFI product monthly, or

2. sell 10 SVP of SFI product monthly to a NON-affiliate

If you are unable or unwilling to invest money into your new business...then you will need to invest a lot of time using free advertising.

Your success in building a home business with SFI is the direct result of the actions that you take.

This is in contrast to the "learned behavior" that many of us have in our society. At our "regular" jobs, we follow directions and all the tools are provided for us to do the job.

When working on your home business, the first (and perhaps hardest) thing to realize is that your business will be exactly what you make of it. It cannot be done for you -- but SFI provides you with all the tools you need if you will use them.

[justme77]

I once read this somewhere and I think it was great advice.

"Pick three products/services from the numerous oppertunities SFI provides and focus your energy on these things"

It is easy to get overwhelmed so pick two at first maybe, be sure your choices are something that fit you, something you can stand behind. Nobody can make these choices for you.

I personally have choosen the pet care products, because I do petsitting. Then I also like the wellness/nutrition products because they seem in such high demand. Also the Long Distance because I have worked for the phone company for 3years so I feel very comfortable with it, I also have the service which helps. And last but not least the IAHBE membership because of it's value.

If you look and read the interviews of the top sellers a lot of them say that they are selling the IAHBE membership, seems like a pretty good indication to me that it is something that works. I know I suggested you choose 3 and I personally focus on 4, however I want to point out again, it's what works for you.

Check with Bell South to see if you can buy a domain name and point it to your Bell South web space without too high a fee. That information is usually listed in the help or FAQ pages. Also take note of any restrictions that prevent a business web site in your account's web space.

If it's available, you would then have the web space included in your existing account with a better domain name. With cheap domain name services or Great Domainia you only make one purchase per year (or per 2 to 10 years, depending on the domain registrar and your business plan) to have a business web site that will stand out.

Thankyou,

Maree. -:O

[idefinelife]

HI Maree
I became EA yesterday and really want to get started. My team leader assigned me 4 new affiliates but I can't get hold of him! I want to be able to send them a welcome message to get them moving, but when I went on to my geneolgy file they weren't recorded there! Is this because I didn't personally assign them myself?

Even so, with this welcome note do I direct them to MY pages so as to gain commisions on them becoming EA and getting other sales, or can they just follow the links on their pages.

I am very new to this and still trying to absorb this mammoth amount of new info.

Thanks

[gerrydaoust]

This is the first time I have read the board in depth. Thanks Steve this post is direct, positive and intelligently written. I saw a reply from Tom worsley so if you read this please e mail me I can not get ahold of you for some reason.
