To Be or Not To Be...this is the answer



It was nice being a team leader based on my own actions; I felt I was leading by example by doing all those things I wanted to see each member of my team to do. I will continue to do just that with or without the title. I still believe in leading by example.

Your list is the PSAs and CSAs on your team. I think you will have to keep recruiting until that list begins to grow on its own; when others on your team see the importance of advertising, promoting and building their team.

I chose from the beginning that it was best to rely on the expertise of others. I started building my team by making EA the second month with a standing order. SFI rewards you with two CSAs. Doesn’t sound like much but most of your income will come by your CSAs when you make team leader. The problem with this now is finding Personally Sponsored Affiliates that are willing to be actively engaged in learning the trade and willing to make EA two months in a row. It does not really cost anything if they follow the plan; sign in every day and complete the tabs, complete the Launch Pad Lessons one each one day at a time and only do as many Getting Started or Intermediate or Advance actions as they need to. Ideally you would only do what you can practice and learn before moving on but you can always review the information later.

Your first two years are just school. If you have an income, think of SFI as your investment in the future, your future.  You will still need to learn what SFI has to teach you and that means reading the material they have made available for free. There are really no shortcuts to wealth; this is why few people make it. So, while you are learning new skills to become an effective affiliate you are building your list and building a team. Do not think about your income, you won’t be rich anytime soon regardless of what you do. One thing is for sure, if you don’t follow the SFI plan or some other real affiliate program you will still be in the same position you are today 3 to five years from now. If you are living pay check to pay check like most Americans are you still will be in as many years down the road. If you are poor or your life style is below your own standards you will be the same if you are still looking to get lucky and become rich quickly instead of building your wealth with intention and direct purpose over the time it takes to do so. Not too long ago this process took more than one generation; you can now do it in less than ten years.

This not a difficult journey but it is a long one. Finding the right people takes time and talent you can only learn by doing or investing in the right resources. Here are my Top ECAs, standing order and co-ops I invest in:

Becoming a team leader by my own efforts was worth the cost every month to me. I will miss it. The way it works now makes it non-productive to focus on making as many VersaPoints as possible to reach team leader status. Instead I will be focusing on investing in promoting my links and using the resources above to build my team. It really makes sense anyway; your income depends on the number of affiliates actively engaged and spending a little money every month. When you have five affiliates capable of investing enough each month to become an Executive Affiliate, you will make money. In theory this plan works even if each member buys whatever they can afford to invest every month.Theories usually work well in a vacuum, not in real life.


Instead of trying to become a team leader, focus on becoming EA each month, you have control of that to a greater degree. Set your standing order to make EA each month automatically. If other members on your team do the same you will be making money each month. Your wealth does not come from this action however; it begins when you start seeing your second, third and fourth generation doing the same thing. You will not earn commissions from your PSAs sales or the purchases their team makes but you will earn matching shares that increase your income from the executive pool, this is where the wealth is.


Invest in the ECAs that help build your team and the co-ops that work best for you. If you cannot afford to invest as much each month your work is learning how to build your business by reading and following the instructions given in SFI. The Forum and Ask SC answers will be a lot of help. Chances are your sponsor knows as much as you do. I hardly ever hear from mine, TrafficSwarm is a traffic exchange and they have never sent an email to me; and Stone Evans our up-line sponsor only sends encouraging truth about the benefits of working hard; more often these days than he ever did when I got started. Stone Evans uses his own system to continually build his team and it seems to be working for him; Plug-in-Profit. It’s not a cheap program and I find it a little too expensive myself. He has a 30 day plan I have been working on for two years now. It involves several sources of income which can be a little distracting and spreading your attention thin; especially if you have limited time and resources. I simply chose to focus on SFI because it was affordable to start with.


It’s always a good time to get started. Never mind what you have been trying to do to make a lot of money fast or without any effort. When you get tiered of spinning your wheels, SFI will still be here and so will I.


I am here to help you if you are willing to do the simple task of signing in and doing the required reading. The prize goes to those that get their homework done and preserver regardless of their current circumstances. Like I said, it was nice having a team leader badge; you need to be one with or without it. We are all followers of the SFI plan.
