Hi Jay,
You can send your affiliate to the “About SFI” page, which explains that it is a network marketing company.
sfimg.com/Reference/AboutSFI.sfiHere is a letter that you can use as a basic “help me” letter. If needed, you can just add to it for specific questions that they may ask.
Hope this helps…
Lori
PS: If your affiliate has an aol address…remove the paragraph with your website link in it…it will not go through to them.

Hi firstname,
So good to hear from you. I know it can be a bit overwhelming at first, but this program really is easy once you get the hang of it. Just take your time and read through the “Training” section. By going to the “Reference” section and simply reading through the “Glossary” will help you understand the terms used in SFI. While you’re there check out the “Getting to Know SFI” links.
You simply need to get people to your Gateway websites (URL). If you haven't located your websites, you can view them by clicking on "My Account" and then "View/Edit Gateway". The first one is your primary website, you would use this one to send customers to view all of the products for retail sales. If you use the one with /VNU at the end it goes directly to the wellness products. I prefer to use the one with /Free or /WMG at the end to promote the business opportunity.
For example: When I advertise the business opportunity, I would send them to my website address:
(use your sfi gateway here) This is mine, yours may have a different domain name, so instead of quickinfo247.com, you may have ezinfocenter.com or moreinfo247.com and have your id number.
When you place an ad at a classified ad site, they will ask for a title, description and your website address (URL). You can find ads to use at the "Marketing Aids" section. Always double check your ad and make sure your SFI id number is correct in the URL before you hit the submit button.
There are hundreds of classified ad sites to start promoting your website on the Internet. Go to
www.sfitraining.com. Click on “Advertise your business”. More classified ad sites can be found here:
www.sfiteam.com by clicking on “Classifieds” from the menu.
When someone signs up for SFI through your advertising efforts, you will receive an email from them with the subject: New SFI Prospect Notification. When they confirm their registration (double opt in), you will receive another email with the subject: New SFI Affiliate Notification.
To follow up with your affiliates, you can send them the same follow ups I will be sending you. Just make the necessary changes with your personal info (your name, change team leader to sponsor and your email address).
Here’s a short explanation of the Comp Plan, but you really need to read the Compensation Plan at the resource center to fully understand all the benefits.
When you became an affiliate, you were put in a position of the T-Net. SFI gives you 30 days to decide if you want upgrade to EA and remain in the T-net and your network starts building in 3 ways:
1. You receive non-personally sponsored affiliates from your upline team (spillover).
2. You bring in affiliates that you personally sponsored.
3. As a Fast Track member, you receive one share of Eagle co-op.
You’ll earn commission when any affiliate (personally sponsored or non-personally sponsored) in your network upgrades themselves to EA. There are also the business builders bonuses and any retail sales you make to non-sfi affiliates are doubled. Non EA’s are eligible to earn only retail sales commissions.
There is also no need to contact any non-personally sponsored affiliates that are in your network. They have sponsors and leaders who are working with them.
Now, there are two ways to become EA: Make retail sales with a total of at least 10 svp to non-sfi affiliates or make a personal purchase of products with a total of 10 svp. SFI doesn’t require that you invest any money….its your choice how to become EA. Honestly, most affiliates just do a personal purchase to the IAHBE because it’s the least expensive and easiest way.
There is a lot of training provided at no cost, which includes the Training section, the discussion board, the Q&A center to get information and of coarse me to help you.
You just send people to your gateway websites that SFI provides you. By advertising the business opportunity to sign up affiliates and/or advertising the products for retail sales.
I know it’s a lot of reading, but it is important to take your time to read and learn. If you have any questions, please feel free to email me....I am here to help you.
Talk to ya soon,
Lori
