SFI Links
This page is for those of us that find the entire Strong Future International (SFI) website a bit overwhelming. I have attempted to put up some simpler explations and links to those pages at SFI. Hopefully this way if you need to find some information but just can’t seem to locate it on the SFI site you can come here and find the proper link to your inquiry.
If you still can’t find it here just leave a comment at the bottom of this post and I will attempt to find it for you and then post it in a response to your comment.
To access most of the SFI pages you will need to have your ID # and Password because the SFI site is mainly a secure site. If you are not an affiliate as of yet you can join by clicking Join Here and signing up for free. It will cost you absolutely nothing and once you get your answer and then IF you decide that SFI isn’t what you thought it was, you can always opt-out completely by simply clicking Opt-Out Here, and submitting your request.
Below you should find a very brief description and at least part of said description will be made clickable to the proper page on the SFI website.
Main SFI Affiliate Center – This should be the main entry point.
a2a – Affiliate To Affiliate Communication – I signed up on this network the day it went live. I received a whole slug of messages in the first week or so and then I haven’t had a message since. Obviously this hasn’t exactly caught on as of yet.
My Account – Index Page – (link is located under your name in the upper right corner of your SFI Main Affiliate Center) This page links to most of the frequently used pages relating mainly to your business account. The following six pages are links that exist on this page.
My SFI Business Reports – Track your business success, statistics, and performance. Reports include your Genealogy, Powerline Report, Full Access Report, Commissions, Sales Notification Report, among others.
My Gateway Manager – This page has links to pages that allow you to change your gateway domain, contact information on your gateway pages and other FAQ’s concerning your gateway pages.
My Account Information - Here you can change your personal info on your account i.e. address, phone, email… Also you can change method by which you are paid commissions, change your Focus i.e. ClickBucks to EyeEarn.com to Network Builder Program…
Note: My preference is the Network Builder Program, it is also the one that I know the most about and can give you the most guidance.
The last link on this page is your email preferences, i suggest that you go ahead and select to receive each of the optional notifications.
My Affiliate Profile - Highly Recommended that you complete this profile and keep it updated, also if you want assistance from your personal sponsor be sure to answer question # 30 with a “YES”
My Standing Order - I guess this one is pretty obvious, huh. Links on this page include, create, edit/modify, cancel, a definition of a standing order, also shipping and payment options.
Miscellaneous Account Options - This page gives you access to load/update your photo, write your affiliate welcome that your new affiliates have the opportunity to access, instructions on how to “whitelist” email addresses in your specific email client. This is also where you can access the Opt-Out Page.
Help Desk - Nine different links on this page all having to do with assisting the SFI Affiliate. Most of these don’t really require any kind of description so I am just going to list them here.
Frequently Asked Questions or FAQ’s - This page breaks the FAQ’s down into 9 seperate categories:
Getting Started FAQs
EyeEarn FAQs
MaxMalls.com FAQs
Commissions/Getting Paid FAQs
Powerline FAQs
Gateway FAQs
Gift Certificate FAQs
SFI Products FAQs
SFI Co-op Manager FAQs
SFI Glossary - Mainly SFI specific terms but also some basic Internet Marketing terminology. Pretty much every entry has a link to a related page inside SFI’s website.
Getting Started with SFI - One of your most important pages when you are first starting out. Basically it is a checklist to follow starting with “Confirming Your SFI Registration and ending with “Follow the PATH” (more on “PATH” below).
Contact SFI Support Staff - Multiply methods of acquiring support from phone to email to even Live Chat.
The next two links on the page are to contact your personal sponsor and your upline above them.
SFI Discussion Board - Main SFI Forum
Resources Tab - 10 different links on this page, some have been covered above and others will be covered below so I am just going to list a few of the different resources here.
EyeEarn Co-Op - This is the main SFI Advertising Co-Op – Excuse me here, but I am going to put in a little sales pitch – In my humble opinion, if you are the least bit serious about SFI as a business opportunity the the EyeEarn.com Co-Op is a true “no-brainer”. There is a minimal $20 One Time Only Fee, then the Co-Op will deliver brand new affiliates to you as your own Personally Sponsored Affiliates (PSA’s) and on top of that every share you own gets you a share of the profits from MaxMalls.com every month. (at the time of this posting the MaxMalls share is considered small but it is an additional stream of income none the less).
Sponsorship and Team Building - Multiple links to different tools to assist in building teams and relationships with those team members.
International Affiliate Resources - If you are outside of the USA this page will definitely help you understand your options better. There are just way too many links for me to go over here. If you have any specific questions please contact me and I will find the answers for you promptly.
Key Code Tracking - This is a vital tool for every Excutive Affiliate. You must be an Executive affiliate to access it though. Simplest definition is a three digit code of your own choosing that you add to your affiliate links and you are able to tell exactly where every new affiliate is coming from. Allows you to streamline your promotions by only using the promotions that are producing for you.
Training Library - There are an absolute plethora of excellent Internet Marketing Articles to read here so just jump right in and start reading. There are just a couple of links I want to focus on here.
PATH – Personalized Affiliate Training Homepage – As the title indicates this is a completely personalized progression for you to work your way through. Step-by-step process to assist you in building your SFI business from scratch.
SFI explained in 30 seconds - Pretty much as stated.
SFI Internet Income Course - As of this posting there are 59 different courses available.
IAHBE.org - The International Association of Home Business Entrepreneurs – Here is a sneak peek at the best selling item at SFI. It is also what I recommend to acheive and maintain your EA status month after month. I will also be posting an overview of the contents of each issue as they come out.
Marketing - Just two links here, but probably two of the most important. Let’s face it, If you don’t market (advertise) your business, the business WILL fail. Period
Marketing Aids - Banners, flyers, business cards, text ads, sample follow-up messages and phone scripts.
Marketing Methods - Beginner, intermediate and advanced step-by-step ideas and promotions for your Focus, i.e. Network Builders Program, EyeEarn.com… Also for individual SFI products or product lines.
Compensation Plans - Choose your Focus and read about it. If you have specific questions, email me and I will do my best to find answers.
Business Reports - See My SFI Business Reports above.
Genealogy - (Full and Condensed) This is a vital tool to be used to keep track of your affiliates and their progress. My best advice is to just get in there and play with all of the different options on producing different types of reports.
My Commissions - Moo-Lah, Cash, Currency, Bucks… I think you get the idea here.
Sales Notification Report – This is where you see your sales for the month.
Note: I make a copy of this report on the last day of every month because as far as I know you can not look at past months after the next month has started. Just a little FYI
Non Confirmed PSA Report - These are personally sponsored affiliates that have not confirmed their registration. You may want to attempt to contact these people and suggest that they confirm their registration so that they receive all of SFI Corp. emails and so you can contact them with the SFI Contact Manager.
Affiliate Store – I will not be going into this because the store is going to be completely different (a HUGE Upgrade) within a week or two.
Input – Self explanatory once you get to the page.
Leaderboard - The leaders through-out they entire organization. All of the Peak Performers are based on quarterly totals (every 3 months)
President’s Club – Meet SFI’s top “movers and shakers!” Includes valuable interviews and profiles so you can learn directly from our best and most successful affiliates. One of my main goals in 2009 is to become a card carrying member of this club. 
Peak Performers – Top Sellers – Those SFI Affiliates who out sell everyone else. I doubt I will be in this list anytime soon. I’m not really into selling the products, but, you never know, with the new store coming out and all.
Peak Performer – Top Leadership Builder – The affiliate who produces the most team leaders. Stone Evans has been there for the past few years and just so you know he is in our immediate upline, he is my sponsor’s sponsor.
Peak Performer – Top Sponsors – Now this list I have been on for this past year consistently. The second quarter this year I was in the Top 20, I am usually at least in the top 40. These affiliates sponsor the most affiliates who upgrade to EA.
That is most of the main pages inside the SFI website. As they add pages and once the new store goes live I will be adding to this list.
If you have any suggestions I will be more than happy to add them to this list, just post a suggestion in a comment and I will get to it as soon as I can.
Greetings To All,
