New, Improved Gift Certificate Program!
8/27/2009 11:08:47 PM


SFI's new gift certificate program is now available.

To fund your account (which is now consolidated with your TripleClicks account), go to TripleClicks.com, log in, and do a search on "Gift Certificate."

You'll be presented with options for adding the following amounts to your account:

$10
$25
$50
$75
$200
$500
or
$1000

Funding your account can now be done with credit card, debit card, PayPal, PayByCash, check, money order, or cash (any of the normal TripleClicks payment options). You can also use money you've earned from selling products on TripleClicks and/or from SFI commissions you have on account!

Next, to issue a gift certificate, just go to your genealogy report at the SFI Affiliate Center, choose the Gift Certificate format, and then click the "Buy Certificate" link beside the affiliate you wish to give a Gift Certificate to.

In the pop-up that now appears, you'll be able to choose the amount of the gift certificate, as well as the expiration date. You'll also note that we've added:

A. The affiliate's photo (if provided)
B. VersaPoints this month (and the points needed to reach the next level)
C. Last login date
D. The date he/she joined SFI
E. Contact information

This new information we've added can help you decide how much to make your gift certificate for, among other things.

You'll also be pleased to know that you'll soon have access to a report that will display all outstanding gift certificates, who they've been issued to, amounts, etc.

IMPORTANT: One significant change you need to be keenly aware of is that there are now no longer any restrictions on what can be purchased with a gift certificate. If you issue someone a gift certificate for $10, for example, they could use it on an order for just $10. Please factor this in when issuing your gift certificates! We made this change because, with the new VersaPoints system, you can have affiliates who are short almost any number of points. This new, open system will, hence, allow you to assist ANY affiliate. Please let us know (using the Suggestion Box) if you prefer SOME limit or, possibly, a user controlled limit (i.e. YOU would decide the minimum order amount for each gift certificate you issue).

GIFT CERTIFICATES FOR CUSTOMERS!

Yes! Very soon, you'll also be able to issue gift certificates to you TripleClicks customers (both those on your Customer List and to PROSPECTIVE customers as an incentive for trying out TripleClicks)! Watch for the announcement.
Special Report and Important Reminder
8/26/2009 4:01:26 PM
To: All SFI Affiliates
From: Gery Carson, SFI President

WOW! That's a word we're saying a lot around the SFI corporate offices these days. Since our launch of the VersaPoints program, Co-Sponsorships, VP Rewards, etc., on August 5th, there has been an absolute whirlwind of growth and activity.

- We've seen new Executive Affiliates (EAs) skyrocket to over 25 times the prior daily average (a more than 2500% increase)!

- In just 21 days, more new, first-time EAs have been generated than the entire months of February, March, April, May, June, and July COMBINED!

- As I write this, we've added 271 new Bronze Team Leaders, 48 new Silver Team Leaders, 8 new Gold Team Leaders, and 10 new Platinum Team Leaders! Again, these numbers, are from just the last 21 days!...and represent more new, first-time Team Leaders than in all of 2008 and 2009 (through August 4th) combined! WOW! (There's that word again.)

- Traffic and sales at TripleClicks have also taken a major jump.


We've definitely had a HUGE breakthrough. And the numbers keep getting better because:

A. Large numbers of affiliates are now joining SFI and immediately getting active. People "get" the new VersaPoints system right away and it shows.

B. More and more leaders are becoming aware of the giant increase in activity in their groups and they're aggressively increasing their focus on SFI.

Because of all this, we may be only at the beginning of a long and prodigious growth cycle! Make sure you're not missing the boat. If you haven't yet fully got up to speed on what's happened, begin reading the articles below that have posted since August 4th.

IMPORTANT REMINDER!

I also wanted to make sure that, if you haven't achieved it already, that you're aware of what you'll receive with 2500 VersaPoints this month.

As first announced on August 5th, co-sponsors for all affiliates who joined SFI on or before July 31, 2009 will be assigned in September. Here's how we're going to assign them:

Every SFI affiliate who achieves 2500 or more VersaPoints in August is going to receive one equal share of the assignments of the tens of thousands of pre-August 1st affiliates and all the financial benefits that come with them.

As an affiliate's Co-Sponsor, you can immediately begin earning up to 24% CV commissions on all their purchases (plus an additional 4% to 8% on all their sales)! This benefit can also continue monthly (for exact commission details and qualifications, see the SFI Compensation Plan at: www.sfimg.com/compplan/ ).

How many can you expect to receive? That's very difficult to know because we have no idea how many of you are going to hit the 2500 points mark by the end of the month. However, we expect that each share will represent at least several dozen affiliates and possibly one hundred or more. It's definitely a potentially very valuable asset you'll want to pursue.

All assignments will be done completely at random or a combination of random and geographical matching. That is, we may assign a small percentage of Co-Sponsorships by COUNTRY. Example: If you live in Malaysia, a portion of your assignments may also be citizens of Malaysia. All others will be assigned at random.

Again, to receive your share of assignments, simply achieve at least 2500 VersaPoints by the end of August 2009. In early September, we will then make all the assignments and, shortly thereafter, they will appear in your genealogy (color coded in green).

To see how many VersaPoints you've scored so far this month and to see what other actions you can take to earn more, just visit your SFI Homepage.

P.S. Don't forget...this 2500 point bonus is a ONE-TIME-ONLY event...and you must qualify by the end of the month.
