International Affiliates US Ad Placements 

Affiliates living outside the United States can not place ads with the Nationwide Classified Ads Agency listed on our website. However,  we strongly recommend advertising in the US to build your business for 5 reason:
1. Americans have the buying power to upgrade right away! 
2. Network Marketing in America is a well-know business model to distribute products.
3. Americans like to impulsively spend money they don't have, using CREDIT CARDS! 
4. 65% of the Executive Affiliates who are beyond one year in SFI live in America.
5. SFI is an American company that conducts business mainly in US dollars.
 
You can still market your business using US newspapers. The website below list all the newspapers in the US. 
You must research  the papers that offer the best value for your money, and place your ads directly with each individual classified ad department.
 
We All Should Know The Power of Advertising Your Business!   
 
We highly recommend placing at least 1 newspaper ad per month for $25.00 or less. If everyone in your downline of say 100 EAs placed an ad for that amount, that basically gives you the buying power of a $2500 ad campaign.  Just as if you were purchasing the ads yourself.  Since all these EAs are in YOUR downline, their monthly income increases directly contribute to your monthly income increases.
 
Its up to you to get the Executive Affiliates on your first level who will follow this advertising system. Once you get several active US affiliates, your American downline will grow like wildfire. Once you are well established in your SFI business with a solid income, you can then expand your business interest into any of the other 205 countries where finding actively paying Executive Affiliates is much more of a challenge.
 
Here are some industry tips everyone should consider about advertising:
 
1. Frequency is very important in advertising.
2. You cannot expect responses unless ads reach your target prospects.
3. Not everyone reading your ad think they need to start a business, until something negative opens their eyes like a job layoff or their house payment going up.
4. It is better to run your ad in the same paper many different times.  It builds confidence in readers that your business will last. Plus, when a person is in need of income, they will go to the newspaper where they saw your ad.
5. Placing small affordable ads many times is much better then spending your entire budget on 1 big ad, once.
 
Advertising is like losing weight. If you go on a diet for one day only, you will not see much change. Likewise, it is virtually impossible to get the desired response if you just run an ad once. You must expose your message to the public on a regular basis. The more a person see your ad, the more they are likely to come back to visit your website when they feel financially insecure. 
 
Advertising experts say your message must hit the average person's brain at least 7 times before it registers what your ad is all about!  A serious opportunity seeker, will focus on your ad the first time they see it.
 
If you think you don't have any money to advertise, you might not be in business. A smart business person invests money in order to make money. And when they start making a profit, it is wise to reinvest at least 10 percent of your profits back into more advertisements. 
 
One of the best investments a business can make is in good newspaper advertisement, because it creates opportunities to increase your income. In the near future The Roc Group will be looking into co‑op advertising to exponentially grow our downline's advertising activity.
 
Co‑op advertising allows you to increase the reach of your ad without increasing your personal advertising efforts. SFI has a co‑op manager and we will be evaluating it to see how we can make it work for our entire downline team.
 
Like exercise, if we start out with a sensible program and stick with it, we will all eventually be able to accomplish things we once might have thought were impossible.
