Business opportunities for senior citizens at SFI!

Baby Boomers and senior citizens are living longer, healthier and more active lives. They look good, feel great and are unwilling to sit around twiddling their thumbs after they retire. They want to be productive and are quite willing and able to work. There are plenty of options out there: they can get part-time or full-time jobs in retail or they can become independent consultants or freelancers, depending on their experience and capabilities. But it's not only about being active or productive, it's about earning a second income to supplement their pensions and Social Security benefits which, in most cases, don't even begin to cover their expenses.

Are there business opportunities for senior citizens? 

Of course there are plenty of business opportunities, even though starting a new business can be quite daunting at any age. There are so many details to take care of, like finding the right location, upfront costs, rent, equipment, licenses, employees, salaries, social security, insurance, taxes, etc. That doesn't mean people shouldn't go for it, especially if it's been a life-long dream of theirs. If they can afford it, now that they have the time and energy to take the plunge, why not?

But what if money is tight?

If money is tight, perhaps an online business might be more suitable. A home-based online business means no upfront expenses, a few hours of work each day and, when the time is right, a minimum investment each month. That's what I'm doing and I am having a ball! If that sounds appealing to you, I recommend you join me at Strong Future International (SFI). 

SFI is a reputable online Affiliate/Marketing program that has been around for over 15 years, where anyone with an Internet connection and a computer can start their own business. More and more seniors are becoming computer savvy, like my dad and my friend Norman, who are both 92 years old, so not knowing how to use a computer should not be a deterrent at any age... that's what kids and grand-kids are for! They can teach you what you need to know in no time at all!

The good thing about SFI is that if you have prior experience with sales and network marketing, you will most likely be able to teach us young whippersnappers a thing or two! However, even if you have little to no prior experience in these fields (like me), the SFI system is structured to teach you how to start a successful online business from the comfort of your home. And it's the perfect time for it. Online businesses are taking off like never before and there is plenty of money to be made for those who learn how to work the system. 

I want to emphasize the word 'work' because that's what it takes. There is a lot of hype out there about ways to earn big money for a minimum amount of work, but we all know that "If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is". The older we get, the harder it is to pull the wool over our eyes. The hard truth is: there is no magic formula that instantly delivers cold hard cash. It takes work, perseverance and determination to succeed at any kind of business.

My experience at SFI has taught me that seniors are the very best candidates for an online business because not only do they bring years of experience to their businesses but also a strong work ethic. They understand the importance of discipline and good work habits and have the time and patience to read, learn and apply what they learn and then share that knowledge with others on their team so that they too can become successful. 

Seniors are also aware that in order to understand all the free business training SFI provides, it is important to repeat certain tasks every day until the information sinks in completely. This is something that the younger generations don't seem to grasp: they want instant gratification. Although some bright youngsters are becoming very successful at SFI, most lack the time, vision or patience to stick with it. They get bored or distracted, and quit before realizing what a golden opportunity this could turn out to be for them.

For those of us who are young at heart but too old to get a steady job that pays enough money to sustain us, SFI offers us the world on a silver platter. No frills, no pressure. Just interesting work, an awesome support system, and the opportunity to become independently wealthy.

Earn money, win prizes and have fun at SFI!

 An affiliate/marketing program can be quite overwhelming for many of us. It takes hard work and perseverance as well as commitment. SFI provides the training we need to learn how to make money and supports us every step of the way. But it also gives us plenty of good reasons to log in every day.

SFI has devised a way to keep us motivated by rewarding us with VersaPoints (VP) for every action we take. Each VP we earn is equivalent to one share in the TripleClicks Executive Pool, which means we can make real money each month by doing these actions. And I am not talking about a few VP here and there! The amount of VP we can earn, just from doing these simple actions, is about one third of the amount we need to reach and maintain our Executive Affiliate rank!

Of course the rest is up to us! If we want to succeed, we need to earn more money and VP by applying what we learn about sales, referrals and sponsoring from the training manuals. However, the fact that SFI is willing to reward us with so many free shares, just for clicking on links and reading the contents on each page, is pretty awesome in my book!

SFI also gives us a 'virtual' pat on the back for our efforts by awarding badges for each milestone we reach. These badges are prominently displayed on our Profile and Leadership page to show our team and fellow affiliates how well we are doing and to remind us that we rock!

All work and no play?

SFI goes far beyond the norm by providing extra incentives. For instance, as long as we do enough actions to earn a minimum of 10VP each day, we are qualified to enter the SFI Daily Grand Raffle and win some really valuable prizes. The same applies for those who are E365 Finalists*. We are automatically entered to win prizes, and even cash, in the daily E365 Raffle.

We have even more opportunities to win prizes, and have fun at the same time, by visiting TripleClicks, SFI's online store. Once we have taken care of business, we can relax and go have some fun at the TripleClicks Game Center. There, we can enter the free hourly T-Time contest to win some TCredits; or take a guess at the final price of an auction (PTP contest) and stick around to watch that auction or even participate, if we feel so inclined and have some TCredits to spare.

My point is, you get a whole lot more from SFI than just work, work, work! And let me tell you, there is no better incentive to log in to SFI every morning than knowing that there might be good news waiting for you. What could it be? A brand new Affiliate? A new sale? A new milestone reached by you or someone on your team? Or maybe, just maybe, it's a message announcing that you have won a Daily Grand or E365 Prize; or some TCredits from the T-Time or PTP contests. What better way to start your day?!

So my advice to all you hard workers out there is: Unless you are already working for a company that is as focused as SFI on rewarding you for the amount of work you put in, and as intent on keeping you happy and motivated, you should seriously consider becoming your own boss and JOIN SFI today! If you are a 'go-getter', you can have all this and more, plus you get to spend more time with your family and save money by working from home! Who could ask for anything more?

*You are automatically enrolled in the E365 contest the day you join SFI. During the first month, you and everyone who joined on the same day as you (your Class), participate in 5 preliminary rounds. The rest of the year, those who passed the 5 rounds become E365 Finalists and can compete to become E365 Class Champion. It is a big deal because, out of thousands of contestants, there can only be 365 winners: one for each day of the year.
