Tap Into Your Warm Market With SFI E-Cards

Tap Into Your Warm Market With SFI E-Cards

Does the thought of promoting SFI products to your friends and family fill you with apprehension? You're not alone. Many affiliates are hesitant to bring the subject up to those in their immediate circle.

There are many reasons. Some people are simply uncomfortable presenting their products to a friend or family member. Others may not know what to say...or fear being rejected by people close to them.

E-Cards to the rescue!

With E-Cards, you've now got an easy, convenient, and non-intrusive tool to introduce SFI to your friends and family with "just the right touch." Best of all, E-Cards are totally free for you to use!

How E-Cards Work

Basically, E-Cards are full-color digital postcards you can e-mail directly to friends and family. There are dozens of designs to choose from, with new designs added regularly. (NOTE: Your suggestions for additional designs are welcome!) You can choose cards promoting a variety of SFI products and services, including Veriuni Liquid Nutrition, the IAHBE, Natural Cleaning products, and more.

After choosing a design, simply add your own message. You also have the option of automatically inserting a link to your Gateway Website (the Gateway most appropriate for the card you've chosen) in your E-Card. Then, just click the Send button, and your postcard is delivered!
Your Warm Market Made Easy

Rejection has always been one of the toughest aspects of contacting friends and family (your "warm market"). In traditional network marketing, many people soon call it quits after having a couple friends or family members reject their proposals. E-Cards, of course, can't prevent somebody from responding negatively. However, by removing the face-to-face element, any "sting of naysayers" you may feel will be GREATLY reduced.

In addition, SFI has purposely kept E-Card content "light and breezy" to keep the communication casual. SFI's product E-Cards use very friendly language and/or a bit of humor to make contacting friends and family a comfortable experience for you.

Do you have a favorite SFI product that's working for you? Send a card featuring that product with a personal testimonial, and let your circle of friends and family members know they can get this great product through you.

Using E-Cards to contact your "warm market" also leaves all the "heavy lifting" to SFI. There's no need to know every little detail about the SFI opportunity or products. Just choose an E-Card, add a short, friendly little message, and send it. The full-color E-Card takes it from there!
Reducing The Pressure

Few affiliates contact their friends and family every time SFI comes out with a great new product or service, although they probably should. But who wants to get a reputation for always "bugging" friends and family?

Again, E-Cards to the rescue!

Each time SFI launches a new or upgraded product or service, we'll add a new E-Card that you can use to quickly send out a new round of friendly little announcement cards. No twisting of arms or getting in anyone's face with "high pressure" tactics. You're simply letting people know about the latest development pertaining to your business via a brief and friendly postcard.
And always remember, a huge component of prospecting is TIMING. Maybe an SFI wellness product, for example, didn't appeal to your friend six months ago. However, today the situation is different, and your friend has become more health conscious. A simple E-Card reminding him or her of the variety of SFI wellness products available may result in a sale...and a new satisfied customer!

Still Not Convinced?

If you're still questioning the merits of contacting your friends and family about SFI, consider this: If you found a great new product that actually made your home safer, made you feel healtheir, and/or saved you money in the long run, who would you tell about it? We're betting that it would be your closest friends and family members. Same thing with SFI. SFI's line of top-notch products are some of the best available anywhere—try them yourself, and you'll see. Why keep them a secret from those you care most about?PLUS...if you're sponsoring SFI affiliates, you'll also be happy to know that E-Cards provide an incredible value to your brand new team members. Your new personally sponsored affiliates are often very motivated to learn how to get started...but many are operating on a very small budget and cannot afford to invest in promotion or advertising for their products.

Once again, E-Cards delivers the solution!

Your new affiliates can get started IMMEDIATELY promoting their business for free. They need only grab the e-mail addresses of their "warm market" and start sending out E-Cards.
It's simple. It's easy. It's free. And ANYONE can do it!

You can start sending out E-Cards now at:

Note: We have found that warm markets respond best to product-focused marketing; therefore, SFI recommends you only send product/service E-Cards to your warm market. However, if you would like to present the SFI business opportunity to family and friends, SFI has a variety of cards available focusing on SFI's exciting program.

Important: E-Cards may be sent ONLY to friends and family members. To prevent abuse, there is a limit of 10 E-Cards per day that can be sent.
