SFI Weekly News (April 28, 2014)

It's a fresh, new week! Check out some of SFI's newest developments to help you reach new heights this week!

______________________________________________________


GET THE MOST FROM TRIPLECLICKS PSAS TO GO AND AUCTION-WON PSAS!

Maximize the value of your TripleClicks PSAs To Go or from PSAs you've won in a Pricebenders Auction: run them through your Co-op Manager!

Your participating affiliates will benefit with guaranteed PSAs added to their downline. YOU will benefit from motivated affiliates with expanding teams of new PSAs, whose activities could add long-term profits to your bottom line!

To funnel your PSAs To Go or Pricebenders Auction PSAs through the Co-op Manager, just go to the Start A New Co-op page (https://www.sfimg.com/PowerTools/TLCoopNew) at the SFI Affiliate Center and choose "Your Gateway Site" as the co-op source. Be SURE to enter 1104 in the key code field. Click the Create A New Co-op button at the bottom when you're done.

IMPORTANT! After purchasing your PSAs To Go or winning the PSAs auction, you've got a day or two before your new PSAs begin rolling in. Once they begin to arrive, it will be too late to run them through a new co-op. Therefore, be sure not to wait too long after winning your auction to set up your co-op!

For help and information about creating co-ops and using the Co-op Manager, see Co-op Manager FAQs at the SFI Support Desk:

YOUR WEEKLY TIP

Save on shipping with TripleClicks in your neighborhood!

Eliminate shipping fees for you, your TC members, and your SFI affiliates by searching for and locating member listings and ECAs in the prospective buyer's immediate area.

Here's how:

1. Log in at TripleClicks.com and click the Products tab.

2. Click a department from the list of departments located on the left side of the page.

3. To the left of the page, you'll see an option to filter for locally available products. Click the box for local pickups and enter a radius of 10, 20, or 50 miles.

4. You'll see all member and ECA listings offering a local pickup or "will-call" option.

IMPORTANT! Some affiliates and customers may not see a significant number of local pick-up search results. YOU CAN HELP expand these results! Spread the word among your team members and your favorite ECAs that they can select local pick ups or will calls for their listings at TripleClicks.com.

Example A: With just a single TCredit on account, you, TC members, and your affiliates can list a product for sale at the store. If you wish, you can choose local pickups ONLY and bypass setting up ANY shipping options. This works great for selling hard-to-ship items, such as bikes, farm equipment, motorcycles, cars, etc. Prospective buyers in your area will see your listings, and if interested, they'll contact you using a contact form located on the details page of your listing. When you receive the message (includes the person's name, e-mail, phone number, best time to call, etc.), you can respond to the person by e-mail or phone to answer questions and/or to set up a showing/meeting. Should the person choose to buy your item, they pay you directly. You keep 100% of the sale price.

To list an item for sale at TripleClicks.com, start here:

https://www.tripleclicks.com/myaccount/sell_your_stuff.php

Special Note: Other than your city, no other contact or address information of yours is revealed to the prospective buyer. It is completely up to you to provide this information, if you choose to, when responding to the prospective buyer.

Example B: If you already have member listings, just edit them to include the local pickup option. To do so, simply go your item listing page at TripleClicks and check the "Item is available for local pickup" box.

Example C: Let our ECAs know--especially those in your country--that you'd like them to offer will-call (i.e. local pickup service). They can easily and quickly adjust their listings at any time to include this option. You can contact an ECA using the contact information on their TConnect page or by posting a message on their TConnect page.

By working on examples A, B, and C, we can make the TripleClicks "LOCALIFE" searches teem with listings in no time!
