First of all, let's clarify where this tool is located, what the restrictions are, and how to use it:
- Go to your Genealogy.
- Choose the Reassign tab. All affiliates who are eligible to be
reassigned (i.e. see restrictions below) will be designated by a
checkbox.
- Check a box for someone whom you want to reassign.
- Enter the SFI ID number of the person to whom you want the
reassignment(s) into the popup's field and click OK. Make sure you have
the right ID number!
- Go down your list and check other boxes for any other affiliates you
wish to reassign, entering the appropriate SFI ID numbers in the
reassignment popup field.
- When you're done selecting the affiliates you wish to reassign, click the Reassign selected affiliates button.
The reassignment now appears in the recipient's Genealogy. He or
she will also receive an e-mail notification from SFI for each
reassignment. Keep in mind that you can only reassign your personally
sponsored affiliate. Additionally, an affiliate can be reassigned only
ONCE.
IMPORTANT! The following reassignment restrictions apply:
-
Affiliates (non-EAs) can be reassigned only to other PSAs unless you are a Designated Diamond OR an STL or higher in rank—in which case you may reassign to your full downline (12 generations maximum).
-
Executive Affiliates (current or former) can be
reassigned only to other PSAs unless you are a Designated Diamond OR an
STL or higher in rank—in which case you may reassign to your full
downline (12 generations maximum).
-
Bronze and Silver Team Leaders (qualified at this rank
within the last 45 days) can only be reassigned to other first-level
Team Leaders of equal or greater rank.
-
Gold, Platinum, and Diamond Team Leaders (qualified at
this rank within the last 45 days) may not be reassigned without
permission from SFI Corporate. Submit a ticket for any requests to
reassign a GTL, PTL, or DTL and include your reasons for wanting to make
the reassignment, then await further instructions.
Let's first look at WHY you'd want to reassign
someone. After all, you earn the largest matches on the affiliates on
your first generation.
The reason, in a word, is "leverage." Yes,
you could put dozens or hundreds or even thousands of affiliates on
your first generation. But if they are not finding success, you're going
to be losing them out the back door as fast as you have them coming in
the front door. You will find this to be very frustrating, and it is
simply not the best way to build a large, secure income.
What you
want to always be trying to do in SFI is develop Team Leaders. Why? For
one thing, a Team Leader is almost certainly going to be making a
profit in SFI, so they're going to be much more likely to be engaged and
active.
The more Team Leaders who develop in your organization,
the more security you build for yourself. This is because, as Team
Leaders of their own profitable teams, they have their own vested
interest in keeping their businesses (which is of course a portion of
your business) growing.
This is, of course, EXACTLY what you
want! Every time you develop a new committed TL, you've created another
residual income stream that can keep bringing in money for you with
minimum attention on your part!
Not only have you created another
residual income stream, but one that can grow month after month because
it's headed by a TL who has his or her own interest in building a
larger and larger group and commission check. In other words, you are
better off with five TLs on your frontline, than 25 EAs, or even 50 EAs.
TIP: You can easily ID good candidates by checking your
My Movers list (accessible via your SFI home page) each day! Plus, you could receive 5 VP for each affiliate you reassign.
OK, now let's look at some of the many ways you can use the Reassignment tool:
An incentive to become an EA--Inform
your affiliates that if they become an EA this month, you'll reassign
5, 10, 15 (or whatever quantity you're comfortable with) new affiliates
to them. To make the incentive even stronger, you can offer to reassign
EAs under them which will help them accumulate more VersaPoints each
month.
Building Team Leaders--I talked above
about how important it is to develop TLs. If you have lots of
personally sponsored EAs, consider reconfiguring them to create five or
more frontline TLs. What you want to do is identify your five most
committed, most serious, most active EAs. Move your other EAs under
them so that your five best EAs are all converted to TLs. Then help
them to duplicate this action ever downward in your organization. Doing
so would create a rock solid and wildly profitable organization with 5
TLs on your first generation, 25 on your second, 125 on your third, 625
on your fourth, 3125 on your fifth, 15,625 on your sixth, and 78,125 TLs
on your seventh. You can now afford your own tropical island! ; - )
"You do, I do"--Don't
like the idea of just "giving away" your affiliates? Make this offer:
"For every affiliate you sponsor this month, I'll match it. Or for
every one, I'll match it with two...or three. Or for every EA, I'll
match it with an EA."
Get the wheels rolling--Many
of the affiliates you recruit have the ability to be quite successful
in SFI; they just need a little push to get STARTED. Hence, contact
your new affiliates when they join, and let them know that as soon as
they sponsor their first affiliate, you'll reward them by reassigning,
say, four affiliates to them. They've now got a nice little team of
their own from which to build. More importantly, they're now "in
motion" and have a incentive to get even more active with SFI.
More milestone rewards--You can offer additional rewards (reassignments) to your team for hitting other milestones such as:
A. Maintaining the rank of EA for 3/6/12 straight months.
B. Recruiting their first EA.
C. Becoming a TL.
D. Recording their first customer sale.
E. Sponsoring X number of affiliates in a month.
F. Sponsoring X number of EAs in a month.
G. Making the top 10, top 20, or top 50 on the leaderboards.
These
are just a few ways you can use the powerful new Reassignment tool to
create excitement and growth throughout your organization. Have other
