This was just announced in the recent SFI newsletter - I thought I would post it here to make sure everyone sees it. Hopefully this increases the upgrades to EA. I would love to hear what people's thoughts are.

SFI is pleased to unveil today a key component of our new, upcoming personalized training and support programs.
Found in the My Account section of sfimg.com, the AFFILIATE PROFILE is a 46-item questionnaire that sets the stage for several VERY powerful upcoming additions to the SFI system coming in the next few weeks.
Here's how SFI president and founder, Gery Carson, describes one of the key ways the Affiliate Profile will be utilized.
"Let's say that John is a brand new affiliate. John knows very little about running a business and virtually nothing about how to market on the Internet. He says to me, 'Gery, I want to become a successful SFI affiliate; just tell me what to do!'
"Herein lies the problem! It's nearly impossible for me to advise John on how to become a successful SFI affiliate when I don't know anything about John! In order for me to provide good advice, I need to know several things about John. Experience. Goals. Likes. Dislikes. What resources John has at his disposal, how much money he can invest in advertising, and so on.
"Once I know this information, however, I can provide very specific tips, advice that can be immediately acted on, and crystal clear instructions. Just as John requested, I can tell him exactly what to do!
"Without this information, however, I'm GUESSING if I try to advice John. And I'm probably overwhelming and confusing him too because my only option is to throw everything at him and hope he can sort through it. Obviously, this is a very, very poor way to assist someone!"
The new Affiliate Profile (combined with new programming that will track dozens of affiliate activities) is the front-end of a dramatic, new system coming to SFI we've named "PATH."
PATH, which stands for Personalized Affiliate Training Homepage, is like having your own, personal SFI "success coach" waiting for you each time you log in at www.sfimg.com. Indeed, because PATH was directly designed by Gery, it will be just like having Gery Carson himself coaching you one-on-one!
Armed with the Profile questionnaire data and our continual tracking of each affiliates' activities, PATH will be able to provide EVERY affiliate with individualized, timely and constant business-building feedback. PATH will be able to help you identify and meet your business goals and precisely advise you on what to do each step of the way.
PATH will be available to all affiliates 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. And if all that wasn't enough, PATH changes and grows with you as you advance from brand new affiliate all the way to Platinum Team Leader! And all you have to do is log in at www.sfimg.com!
When you fill out your Profile, you'll notice that we also ask for permission to share the data with your sponsor and other upline members. SFI, of course, isn't the only party that can greatly benefit from no longer being in the dark. Very soon you, too, will have access to the profiles and be able to assist YOUR affiliates in all kinds of new ways for mutual benefit.
Furthermore, we'll be incorporating some slick, new additions to the SFI system soon that will allow both sides (upline and downline) to quickly connect and develop close, strong partnerships—a KEY element in building a profitable, growing T-Net organization.
The Affiliate Profile is the beginning of a truly MAJOR paradigm shift at SFI. When PATH is launched later this summer, completing the Affiliate Profile will be part two of a sleek, new (and MUCH shorter) Smart Start. What's more, Smart Start will soon be just ONE click away from signing up as an affiliate at any SFI Gateway Website.
In other words, in just a few weeks, persons signing up at your Gateways will just moments later be completing Smart Start (providing you instant access to their profile so that you can begin assisting them immediately). Even better, one click more and your new affiliates will be presented with their own Personalized Affiliate Training Homepage (PATH). Specific, completely individualized, step-by-step instructions, "to-do" lists, and more will be in front of them IMMEDIATELY!
No more "I don't know what to do!" No more mass confusion caused by throwing too much information at new affiliates.
In our surveys of thousands of brand new affiliates, "too much information to absorb" is cited by a whopping 62% of new affiliates at the thing most disliked about SFI (the next closest, "too many e-mails from SFI," comes in at a far distant second place at just 11%, and nothing else is even close.) PATH should dramatically close this hole.
Imagine the difference when your affiliates are not paralyzed by "information overload!!"
Here's another statistic from our surveys of new affiliates that is illuminating (keep in mind that these are affiliates who've been in SFI for at least 10 days):
When asked why they have not yet gotten active with SFI, the No. 1 reason cited is: "I don't understand SFI enough yet to get active"
Note that it's not because of lack of time or lack of money. Rather, it's because they are confused and don't know what to do!
How many more of your new affiliates will be getting active when our new Smart Start and PATH program is there to greet them within moments of joining SFI?!
Exciting indeed!
Yes! SFI will finally be providing EVERY affiliate with not only the tools, but the exact step-by-step plan to build a successful business.
So why introduce the Affiliate Profile now if PATH is not yet ready? Because we need all EXISTING affiliates, of every rank, to complete the Affiliate Profile, too.
Without it, we, of course, can't create a PATH for you.
So—ALL current SFI affiliates—get to the following URL now and get your Profile completed:
www.sfimg.com/MyAccount/ShowAffiliateProfile.sfi
Then start getting ready for an all new SFI experience coming very, very soon!
