SFI News Letter


NEW AUCTION ITEMS ARRIVE AT PRICEBENDERS!

Pricebenders continues to expand its offerings by introducing FIVE new auction items...

1. Magic Bullet NutriBullet 12-Piece High-Speed Blender/Mixer System

The NutriBullet System is quite simply the best product out there to make healthy, nutritious drinks that can help you fight and prevent disease, lose weight, relieve joint pain, promote healthy, younger-looking skin, and even add years to your life. The secret is the NutriBullet's exclusive extractor technology which uses a 600 watt motor with cyclonic action and the patented extractor blades. This technology breaks down and pulverizes the stems, seeds, and skins where most of the essential nutrition lies-- unlike what juicers and blenders do. Simply add your favorite fruits, vegetables and boosts (nuts, seeds, herbs) to the NutriBullet, along with some water, and extract the ingredients into smooth, tasty drink. And the best part is a NutriBlast takes only seconds to prepare, seconds to clean and couldn't be easier to take on the go.

The first auction for the Magic Bullet will begin Tuesday, March 15th, at 6:30 AM.

2. Avalon Premium Ultrasonic Digital Cool Mist Humidifier With Remote & Filter With Humidity Control, Zero Noise Technology

You'll LOVE this highly innovative ultrasonic humidifier! The Avalon Digital Cool Mist Humidifier with Filter lets you choose warm or cool mist settings, adjust the level of humidity, and decide among three mist levels. The 5-liter tank, easy-to-read display, convenient remote, nightlight, and built-in 12 hour timer make the Avalon a cinch to use, while the double 360 degree mist outlets allow for better humidity dispersal of up to 40-50 square meters. The advanced technology filter reduces 90% of the limes in the water and the convenient carry handle make refilling the humidifier easy.

NEW CHECKBOX FEATURE AT GENEALOGY

Your Genealogy (https://www.sfimg.com/Reports/Genealogy) now features a checkbox behind the name of each person.

You can use checkboxes to help manage your team and do communications. For example, let's say you wanted to send a special group mailing to 37 people matching a certain criteria. Now you can simply check the box for each of those persons.

As soon as you start checking boxes, you'll see this new element appear under filters:

Once you're done checking boxes, click the "Search for these affiliates" button to pull up JUST those affiliates you've checked. You can now do your group mailing.

Once you no longer need these persons "flagged" (box checked), simply click the "Clear Checkboxes" button.

TIP: While checkboxes can occasionally come in handy, please don't overlook your Genealogy's powerful filters. Checking boxes can be tedious and very time consuming, especially if you have a large group. But by smartly using filters instead, you can pull up very specific subsets of your Genealogy easily and within seconds. In short, if you value your time, make sure you understand how the Genealogy filters work and use them to efficiently manage and build your team!

Special Note: The Reassignment tab in your Genealogy also uses a checkbox. Note that the reassign checkbox is located in FRONT of the person's name. The general checkbox--that this announcement is about--is located BEHIND the person's name.

CSA REWARDS NOW FULLY LIVE!

All affiliates can now earn 10, 20, 30 or more new, income-boosting CSAs (Co-Sponsored Affiliates) every month!

One of the easiest ways to score a plentiful load of new CSAs every month is by setting up a qualifying Standing Order (https://www.sfimg.com/Reference/StandingOrders).

You'll now receive...

* 10 CSAs each month (120/year) with a min. 1500 VP Standing Order OR
* 12 CSAs each month (144/year) with a min. 2000 VP Standing Order OR
* 20 CSAs each month (240/year) with a min. 3000 VP Standing Order

But CSAs for Standing Orders is just the tip of the iceberg. There are also 28 other ways to earn monthly CSAs! Go now to our new CSA Rewards Ledger for the complete list here:

http://www.sfimg.com/MyAccount/MyReports/CSARewardsLedger
IMPORTANT NOTE: Each time you qualify for one or more CSAs from the CSA Rewards program, you'll receive an alert on your Alerts Tab. You'll then need to visit the CSA Rewards Ledger to claim your CSA(s). To claim CSA(s), simply click the "CLAIM" button. Your request will immediately be queued and your CSA(s) will be added to your Genealogy as soon as new CSAs are available. This will normally be within 24 hours. CSAs that go unclaimed after 30 days are forfeited.

Check your Alerts Tab NOW to see if you have any CSAs to claim. Then be sure to welcome them to your team and start working with them!

There is one exception on CSA claims: For the two CSAs that brand new affiliates receive upon initially achieving the rank of EA, claiming is not required. Rather, for first-time EAs, the two CSAs will be awarded automatically.

NEW TCREDIT PACKS GIFT OPTION

Now, in addition to being able to issue gift certificates to your affiliates, you can also gift TCredits packs!

The primary reason we've put this new option in place is in response to sponsors telling us that sometimes the gift certificates they've given to people are not redeemed on what they were agreed to be redeemed on.

Now, you can give the specific gift of TCredits to be used as incentives, prizes, and rewards. And one of the benefits of issuing TCredits is that it can help the recipient become more engaged with TripleClicks via auctions, games, member listings, etc. By helping them become comfortable with using TCredits, your recipients may then see the reasons for buying future TCredits for bidding at Pricebenders or playing Eager Zebra games, for example.

Available TCredit pack sizes are:

* 1 TCredit
* 10 TCredits
* 20 TCredits
* 50 TCredits
* 200 TCredits

With this many quantity options, you can do anything from a small gift to a large, EA-qualifying or Fast-Track-qualifying gift.

Note that TCredit packs may be gifted ONLY to PSAs at this time.

To gift TCredit packs:

1. Go to your Genealogy (https://www.sfimg.com/Reports/Genealogy).

2. Click the "Gift" tab.

3. Beside the name of the person you wish to issue the gift to--under the "Gift" column--click the "Buy Now" link.

4. On the right side, choose from the pull-down menu the quantity of the TCredit pack you wish to issue.

5. Click the green "Issue TCredit Pack" button.

6. Done. Your recipient will immediately receive the TCredits into their account for immediate use.

39,335 FREE VP AWARDED IN LATEST SPIN & WIN

Did you miss out on the most recent Spin & Win contest, held between February 29th and March 2nd? Affiliates who spotted the Spin & Win notice--announced in the SFI Weekly Newsletter mailed out on February 29th--and who entered the free contest grabbed 39,335 free Action VP! Readers are leaders!

When you arrive at the Spin & Win Web page, answer the simple questions there about SFI or TripleClicks. Answer correctly and you will get one free spin of the VP wheel--with a chance to win up to 1,000 VersaPoints (everyone is guaranteed to win at least 5 VP per spin).

TRIPLECLICKS TIP OF THE WEEK:

Don't let your free TCredits go to waste!

Did you know that as an EA or above, you get FREE TCredits every month you maintain 1,500 VP or above?

Beginning in their second consecutive month with 1,500 VP or more, EAs receive 10 TCredits, BTLs get 12, STLs get 14, GTLs receive 16, PTLs are awarded 20 TCredits, and DTLs get 24 TCredits each month. Your free TCredits accumulate in your TC account until they expire (1 year after being issued) or you use them.

These FREE TCredits give you--not to mention your qualified team members--a wonderful opportunity to explore TripleClicks and post items for sale, bid on Pricebenders Auctions, participate in Eager Zebra games, and more...and all at absolutely no risk!

It just doesn't get easier than this. Take a moment now, and log in to TripleClicks.com (http://www.tripleclicks.com/) to view the number of TCredits on your account. And be SURE to trumpet these free TCredits to your team members with 1,500 VP, as well as your up-and-coming affiliates!

--Gliceria P., AUSTRALIA

"A great innovation! Thank you Gery. I'm thinking that I will be 'offering' this gift to my PSAs but only after they and I have discussed it together and made a plan.
