The SMART START
program is designed to help your new SFI Affiliates get off to a good start. It
works like this:
Upon registering as a
new SFI affiliate, your new PSAs sees a single webpage that officially welcomes
them to SFI and lets them know that they’ve just received 25 free Rewardicals. Here's what that page looks like:
This section also
tells them about how they can “sweeten the pot” with BONUS Rewardicals and CSAs
by going EA…and lets them know that available bonuses will start decreasing
after 48 hours.
But that’s just the
beginning. All affiliates are also offered up to 1000 total Rewardicals and
up to 50 total CSAs.
That is, they can lock
in 700 Rewardicals and 28 more CSAs by going EA (by any means or combination) within their
first 48 hours in SFI.
OR...
They can grab
the Ultimate Smart Start package of 1000 Rewardicals and 50 CSAs by setting up a 1500 VP Auto-Delivery
for TCredits within that first 48 hours (see below). The Ultimate Smart Start
package also comes with a Lifetime Custom Prestige Domain and
an exclusive, redesigned Fast-Track Member badge! Altogether, the “Ultimate”
package has a value of over $310 that the new affiliate can receive FREE just
for powering up their new SFI business within their first 48 hours!
IMPORTANT: Please note
that new affiliates are advised here that these options are totally optional, and they can take more than 48 hours to go EA if needed.
However, for each day past the initial 48 hours, the amount of bonus
Rewardicals and bonus CSAs they can receive decreases. In other words,
the sooner they become an EA, the more bonuses they’ll receive.
Once the new affiliate
clicks the Get Started button, they’ll be presented with this brief next
screen, which primarily is provided so that the new affiliate knows what to do
next. You’ll note that in RED we stress the importance of having an active and legit
email address registered (and if not, how to easily enter a new email address).
SMART START CAN’T BE
MISSED!
So that no new
affiliate can ever say they’re weren’t aware of the great Smart Start program…
1. For
every new affiliate's first 30 days, he or she will see a bright gold banner
atop every page of the Affiliate Center. This banner features a big countdown
clock that ticks down second by second.
Here’s a sample of
what the banner looks like for an affiliate’s first 48 hours:
After 48 hours, it
will automatically display precisely how many Rewardicals and CSAs are
available for the individual affiliate, based on their join date, and feature a
24-hour clock instead.
2. Also, when they
enter the Affiliate Center, they will see the following alert screen which
prompts them to send out a brief welcome letter to the newly chosen CSA:
One new CSA will
appear each day. So, when new affiliates log in to the Affiliate Center,
a CSA welcome letter alert will pop up automatically. Provided they log in each
day during their first five days and send the welcome letter provided for them,
they’ll secure all five CSAs. However, if they fail to log in, they’ll forfeit
any remaining CSAs (of the five). IMPORTANT: Regardless of how the new affiliate
manages the five initial free CSAs, the BONUS CSAs (and bonus Rewardical) will
still be offered until his/her 30th day in SFI.
3. Of
course, not every new affiliate visits the Affiliate Center regularly.
Therefore, during their first 30 days, we also send every new affiliate a
daily Smart Start email update. These brief updates will provide the
current amount of Rewardicals, CSAs, and other benefits that are available to
them by upgrading to EA now.
THE GOAL OF SMART START
Smart Start is
essentially ONE page followed by a brief encouragement to start going through
LaunchPad (and to be on the lookout for the emails we’ll be sending them).
Smart Start strongly
and directly encourages new affiliates to advance to the rank of Executive
Affiliate as soon as possible. Rather than hoping they’ll keep reading
and figure out that they should go EA, we’re advising them to advance to the
rank of EA immediately, unequivocally, and with no “beating around the bush.”
We've designed this
program to be somewhat aggressive about directing new affiliates towards making
a purchase (specifically, setting up an Auto-Delivery order for a 1500 VP TCredits
pack). Of course, it's very clear this option is totally optional, but we
want to make this special offer right away while we have their attention and
they are online at the Affiliate Center.
We're also following
up with new affiliates daily with email updates so they know exactly how many
VP they’ve collected and how much more they need to reach Executive Affiliate
status (and the bonuses they receive when they do so). Therefore, even if
they’re not visiting the Affiliate Center, we actively encourage all new
affiliates to go EA every day via emails.
SMART START DETAILS PAGE
Throughout the 30 days
after a new affiliate joins, it's important to concisely and clearly
communicate the current bonuses that are available to them. All of our
emails to new affiliates about Smart Start and all our alerts, banners, etc.
about Smart Start point to this page:
That super easy URL is
important! For your new affiliates (in their first 30 days), you should
absolutely be referencing this new page in your communications and training.
And by using this page, you won’t have to try to calculate for them what
bonuses are currently available to them! Rather, just refer them to http://www.sfimg.com/smart and it’s all
spelled out for them.
The smart webpage
includes:
- Countdown clock (hours and
minutes left to grab the current bonuses)
- A list of the number of
Rewardicals, CSAs, and/or other bonuses currently available to them.
- How many VersaPoints they’ve
collected to date
- How many VersaPoints they
still need to qualify
- A link to the new and improved
“How to go EA” page
- A link to order the qualifying
TCredits pack (if within first 48 hours)
FAQS
Q: As the sponsor or upline Team Leader of a new affiliate who
takes advantage of the Smart Start program, how do I benefit?
First and foremost,
you’ll of course earn Direct Commissions and/or Team Leader Overrides on any
purchases made. And even if no purchases are made, there are lots of
great potential future benefits (financial and otherwise) for you when members
of your team generate 1500 VP or more and go EA in their first 30 days of
course!
Q: Can VersaPoints be carried over from the month they join to
the next month to make the required 1500 VP in 30 days?
Yes, they simply need
to use the “VP Transfer” feature when the new month starts.
Q: Are the CSAs that new affiliates receive be special in any
way?
Yes. For one
thing, they are the newest possible sign-ups, typically 48 hours old or less.
Also, of the 20 CSAs that new affiliates may choose from, we attempt to
provide, if available, up to five that are from the new affiliate’s same
country and/or region.
Q: Can you assure that the CSAs that people receive will become
active?
Sorry, no one can know
this, especially since most have just joined within a few hours. However,
keep in mind that they are all being exposed to the powerful new Smart Start
offer, too. So if Smart Start become popular, then the CSAs being
received will naturally be more active.
Q: After the first 48 hours, what is the rate that the amount of
Rewardicals and CSAs decrease?
Each 24 hours after
the first 48 hours, the available bonuses decrease by 25 Rewardicals and 1
CSA…resulting in ZERO bonus Rewardicals and CSAs available on day 31. So,
for example, if a new affiliate qualified as an EA on their 10th day, they
receive 525 bonus Rewardicals and 20 bonus CSAs for their Smart Start bonuses.
Q: So since every new affiliate is receiving up to 5 CSAs, does
that mean they’ll forfeit those CSAs if they don’t go EA?
Yes. And while
we ARE making a special exception to our standard rule and allowing all CSAs
received from Smart Start to be retained through the end of the month
subsequent to their joining date, recipients ARE eventually faced with the
decision: Go EA or lose their CSAs. That said, they DO receive a series of
emails at the end of that month advising them of the need to go EA to avoid
forfeiture, so the need for a decision won't come as a surprise to them.
Q: The list of 10 CSAs that affiliates choose their free ones
from…does it display country of residence?
Yes. And since
we populate their list with some affiliates from their country and/or region
(as available), it allows the new affiliates to actually get started with a team
of people right from their own area! Isn’t that great?!
Q: When I’m notified of a new PSA, is there anything special I
should do to make sure they don’t miss out on Smart Start?
Keep in mind that SFI
Corporate actively promotes Smart Start to them and keeps them updated on their
pending bonuses, etc. However, we strongly encourage you to start a friendly
dialogue about Smart Start with all your new team members. Here’s the
type of message we recommend:
Hi, Mary! I’m really excited to start
working with you and I wanted to make sure you heard about the SFI Smart Start
program. Smart Start will give you a powerful head start and can help you
get your business into profit quicker. To find out how close you are to
qualifying for Smart Start bonuses, go to: http://www.sfimg.com/smart.
If you have any questions about Smart Start, please let me know and I’ll
be glad to assist you.
Note that we
discourage “twisting arms” to buy! Buying is always optional in SFI, so please don’t imply that buying is
required! We want all new affiliates to participate in SFI at whatever
pace is right for THEM.
Q: The Smart Start bonuses sound great, but would there be any
way for me to “sweeten the pot” and add even more bonuses to make the offer
even harder to resist?
It’s something we are
discussing. We may very well develop an auxiliary program that would
allow sponsors and/or Team Leaders to add even more value to Smart Start.
Stay tuned!
Q: Why don’t I see the new banner about Smart Start at the top
of the Affiliate Center?
Smart Start is only
for those who joined on April 25, 2018, on or about 9 AM CST. Only those
joining after this time are offered the Smart Start bonuses and can see the
banner, receive the emails about Smart Start, etc.
Q: Why the requirement for the 1500 VP pack of TCredits to
qualify for the “Ultimate Smart Start?”
There are several
reasons:
- Every affiliate can use TCredits
and can actually parlay them into much more than what they cost.
- This TCredits pack includes a
handsome $17.66 in CV (hence, excellent commissions for upline members).
And with the requirement being a monthly Auto-Delivery, those great
commissions can continue month after month!
- As a digital product, it can be
delivered immediately anywhere in the world and there’s no shipping cost.
In other words, it’s a perfect product for SFI’s global footprint.
- With TCredits on-hand, new
affiliates can immediately begin trying out auctions, Eager Zebra games,
and more. These actions of course also help get new affiliates
engaged and active, which is critical.
- We want to keep it simple!
Give people lots of choices and many get overwhelmed and actually
become stuck.
- The monthly Auto-Delivery price
for this TCredits pack is just $36.25. That means for about $1.20 a
day—less than the price of a daily cup of coffee or soda—new members can
lock in monthly EA status, lock in their CSAs, and so, so, so much more!
Your own powerful online business for just $1.20 a day is a mind-blowing
bargain if you really think about it!
Q: What if a new affiliate doesn’t select their free CSAs for
some reason?
If they fail to select
the free CSAs, the new affiliate forfeits these CSAs. However, they still
remain eligible for BONUS Rewardicals and BONUS CSAs and can still see the
special banner atop the Affiliate Center and receive the email reminders about
pending Smart Start bonuses. Note that even if they do not select the
free CSAs, they still, by default, receive the initial 25 free Rewardicals.
Q: So is it hours or DAYS that the countdown clock for bonuses
is reflecting?
Technically,
everything is “to the minute.” That is, the 48-hour clock starts running
the minute an affiliate joins SFI. And when we refer to “days,” we are
really referring to 24-hour spans from the minute the new affiliate joins.
Best way to keep it all straight: Always refer to the new www.sfimg.com/smart page.
