We
have all heard it said that duplication is what will build a strong
team, but are we all doing what we can to make our teams great?
Advertising
is the number one step in building your team because if you don't
advertise this opportunity, nobody will know it is available. So, are
you advertising daily, or weekly, or even monthly? If you don't take
the time and effort to advertise, what makes you think that your team
would advertise?
Do
you log in every day and complete your “To Do List”? With any
commitment to your business, you should be able to log in daily, and
take the 15 minutes that is required to complete at least your “To
Do List”. Are you using your Stream posts for leading your team,
or are you just posting anything for the VP that you can earn? How
about your Leadership page? Is it set up so that new affiliates can
see who you are, what you are doing, and how to go about succeeding
here? All of these things will make or break your team as far as them
duplicating you. Do you visit the Forum regularly and answer
questions that may help another affiliate? Are you reading everyday
and searching for training materials that maybe you have read, but
need a refresher course on them? Never stop learning!!!!!
Besides
my Standing Order for 125 TCredits, I also purchase individual
TCredits throughout the month so I am never left without the 3
TCredits per day that I use to play a game, put a price on a
PickThePrice future auction, and bid on a PriceBenders auction. I go
for all Double Points (DP) auctions at PriceBenders, and I earn 10
MRP for each bid, and I keep a close eye on the Bid and Build game to
the right, allowing me to spin for a chance at earning a PSA. Some
weeks I choose to spend extra TCredits just to gain the 10 MRP for
bidding, and in return, I have gained quite a few PSA's through the
Bid and Build option. As soon as I have 126 MRP, I purchase a single
TCredit so that I gain 102 VP to add to my Versa Points for the
month.
I
also buy many items from TripleClicks, such as post cards to send to
potential ECA's, Wave3 post cards, an SFI hat, items for my new
puppy, and most recently, a new wireless mouse for my computer. The
price for the items that will help me advertise my business are
extremely cost effective, even if I only get one sign-up by sending
them out. I wear my SFI hat every time I am having a bad hair day,
and I have had many opportunities to hand out my business cards when
someone asks me what SFI is for on my hat. Perfect chance to explain
the business, and also hand out some of my materials.
My
next advertising venture is going to be placing fliers on every pizza
box that goes out from our local pizza joint. I have yet to figure
out the exact amount that would make it work with my advertising
budget, but at least it is in the talking stages as of now.
Internet
advertising is great, but in reality, how many of us are listed
through the same Traffic Exchange sites, or Safelists? At this point,
I think I prefer more personal advertising, and handing out materials
while being able to answer any questions when I offer the
opportunity. Obviously, advertising is widespread, and everyone will
have a chosen method that works best for them, so don't be afraid to
try out different techniques to gain sign-ups or to make sales.
As
a team leader, I want to share my techniques with everyone so that we
can all become successful. Since SFI is worldwide, the chances of two
people advertising in the exact same place are very small, but if we
can all learn from others, we can all climb to the top and make the
best of our business.
If
you want to build a great business that makes you lots of money, then
don't be afraid to put continuous time and effort into making it the
best that it can be. The tools and materials are all here for you,
but it is up to you as to how you use them.
Choose
to build something great and watch your team duplicate your moves.
Check out SFI for yourself, and see how duplication can make you money.
