Rule 6 for Success

YOU succeed only if THEY succeed

Is it not amazing that success does not come from blowing your own horn, but from blowing the horn of others!

Over and over in network marketing materials you will find this one truth: your success is very closely linked to the success of your affiliates. If you can assist to help them get what they want – you can get what you want. WOW.

This is a mistake one so easily make and that is to concentrate on yourself when trying a success of your business. The secret is to concentrate on your affiliates. Help them to achieve what they set out to do and you will make a success yourself.

A start is to open lines of communication between yourself and your affiliates. In doing this you can teach them to do better and you can build relationships with them. These relationships are critical to your success.

And this is where I find SFI such a wonderful business. They supply you with a wealth of tools that enables you to open good lines of communication in the way of personal greeting messages, regular outgoing communications and training on how to do this.

Here is a quote I like a lot:
"You can get everything you want if you help enough others get what they want."
-Zig Ziglar

Rule 5 for Success

Treat TripleClicks as YOUR store

There you go, this rule for success says: if you start a business, you should use your own products. You should also sell and promote your products.

Surely one would not go and buy a product from an opposition store is you sell it in your own store? Would you?

It just makes a lot of sense to support yourself.

If you are an SFI affiliate, you also get an online store called TripleClicks. This store already sells thousands of different products to people all over the world. And many products are added every day.

It therefore makes a lot of sense to buy from your own TripleClicks store when you buy something. Especially when it is something you are already buying. Would not make sense if you go and buy something that you are selling yourself from somebody else, now would it?

SO before you buy anything for yourself or for a friend, first check the availability of that product in the TripleClicks store. If it is there buy it there because then you are supporting your own business.

One needs to remember that your success as an SFI affiliate, is tied directly to the success of TripleClicks (TC). The more successful TC is, the more successful SFI's affiliates will be because all leads to larger affiliate commissions of course.

Some of the features of the TripleClicks store are (and there are constantly more being added):
* You can sell you own old stuff for cash,
* Pricebenders online auction where you can buy brand new products real cheap,
* Deal of the day,
* A list of Hot Deals,
* A list of closeout sales.
* A great search facility,
* A list of what’s new,
* There are special links that will ensure that the commission is allocated to you if someone buys from that link.  And it shows you what the commissionable price is on every product,
*The Booster Club,
* And many more.

The TripleClicks Booster Club makes buying from TripleClicks even more beneficial. Are you a member of the Booster Club yet? Why you should become a member of the Booster Club:

As a member of the Booster Club, you get:
* Special product offers and sales available to Boosters only
* An additional 10% off the regular price of the Deal Of The Day
* Special recognition
* Access to deeply discounted Booster-only closeouts
* 100 free VersaPoints every month (points awarded after monthly purchase)
* MORE to come!

So log in to SFI right now and join the TripleClicks Booster Club if you did not do that already.

Have lots of fun.

Rule 4 for Success

Work with the workers

If you want to have success in your business, you have to work with the workers because they already know that it is hard work that gets you somewhere.

What does this mean?

Well, sometimes we are so consumed with the idea that we have to work hard to get hundreds of affiliates that we do not give the necessary attention to our hard workers. I do not say it is bad to get hundreds of affiliates. If you are able to get hundreds of affiliates, great! But remember, do not do this at the expense of your hard workers. You should always do all you can to support your hard workers.

It is better to have three to five hard workers in your team than to have a team of two hundred doing nothing! So, if you find a hard worker, pamper him! Assist him as far as is humanly possible. Remember, the future of your business literally depends on it.

So many successful businessmen achieve success, not because they themselves are so good, but because they surround themselves with good people. With hard workers. And they support these hard workers. Do yourself a favor and have a look at very successful business people. Around them you will always find a whole set of very hard workers.

You should be regularly in contact with your hard workers. They should at all times know that you are there to help in case they need you.

So work through the people signing up under you and find the hard workers. They are there just waiting for you to discover them and then work with them.

SFI has a very ingenious tool that assists you to find your hard workers real quick. It is called the *My Movers* list on your SFI Home page. Use this list to your advantage. These people already know how to work hard. Work with them.

The old adage is quite true *you can lead a horse to water, but you cannot make it drink*. Similarly, you can get many affiliates, but if they are not workers, you cannot make them work. This does not mean that you should ignore the people not on your *My Movers* list. You should work with them too, because there may very well be a very hard worker amongst them that you just do not pick up when you first look at your affiliates. So work your list, find the tree or four hard workers and do everything in your power to assist them.

These are just a few of my thoughts. Please read through the Rule 4 For Success as written by Gery Carson, President of SFI. His thoughts on this subject are so valuable and very true. Please log in to SFI and read it. You will be glad you did.

One tip Gery gives as an example is: *Don't waste time on skeptics or pessimists. They will NOT succeed in SFI or any other similar endeavor. They do not possess the qualities of a winner (this includes "rocking-chair advisors" who talk and talk, seem to know all the answers, but never act).*

Have lots of fun.

Rule 3 for Success


Lead By Example

Whatever it is that you want your affiliates to do, do it yourself.

It is so true, and so many leaders forget this, that people look up to you as their leader. They look at what you are doing and they follow you by doing what you are doing.

If you want your affiliates to stay active in a program, then you must stay active yourself.

If you want your affiliate to get more affiliates, then you must get more affiliates yourself.

And so on.

Unfortunately if you are not active yourself you cannot expect of your affiliates to be active. So the negative is also true: do nothing and chances are very good that your affiliates will also do nothing!

In SFI there are quite a few examples mentioned of what one should do to lead by example. You should yourself:

1 Have a standing order (this makes it easy not to forget to place the order for that product you need every month)

2 Be a member of the TripleClicks Booster Club (The booster club allows various priveleges like discounts) and 

3 Belong to the S-Builder co-op (the co-op adds affiliates, that you can earn from, to your account without you having to work to get them, WOW)

I quite like the following quote from Jack M. Zufel:
"A leader is someone who is ahead of the pack. Even if it is only by one inch. They are doing, or have done, what they want or expect others to do. They are not watchers nor do they wait around. They take action...proper action....a lot of proper action! And they never give up!"
