SFI Weekly News (December 12, 2016)
It's a fresh, new week! Check out some of SFI's newest developments to help you reach new heights this week!______________________________________________________
INTRODUCING...SPOTLIGHT MERCHANTS!
We are very excited to unveil an amazing new program for all SFI affiliates. We call it...SPOTLIGHT MERCHANTS.
Spotlight Merchants are online sellers from around the world that we've hand-picked, and that we'll be adding to a special new directory coming to TripleClicks. Over time, we hope to add hundreds of popular merchants, representing tens of thousands of products and services...in about every category you can think of!
By simply shopping at these merchants' sites, you'll be able to earn up to 500 VersaPoints a month! And it's so easy! Once you've placed an order, simply submit a Points Claim Form. We'll verify your order with the seller and your VersaPoints will be immediately awarded to your SFI affiliate account!
But that's not all! As you know, as an SFI affiliate, TripleClicks Executive Pool shares are an important component of your compensation. The higher the share value is, the larger your commissions can go.
The Spotlight Merchants program is designed to actively and aggressively boost share values. That is, a large portion of every Spotlight Merchant sale goes directly into the TripleClicks Executive Pool. And because much of this will go in "unencumbered," ALL shareholders can see higher share values.
Example: You place a $50 order with a Spotlight Merchant. For this, you immediately receive 300 VP. A portion of the $50 you paid pays for your 300 VP of course. But a portion is also simply deposited into the pool for all qualified SFI affiliates to share in. Now imagine thousands of SFI affiliates patronizing Spotlight Merchants each month. Pool shares values could soon begin to grow rapidly!

MEET OUR FIRST SPOTLIGHT MERCHANT: FAT BRAIN TOYS
We're delighted to have Fat Brain Toys be our very first Spotlight Merchant. And we're especially excited because Fat Brain Toys has a special connection with SFI. That is, the founder of Fat Brain Toys is none other than Mark Carson, younger brother of SFI founder and president Gery Carson!

SPOTLIGHT: FLIPS AND SUPER DEALS!
If you haven't had a chance to check out the very cool new Flips and Super Deals features at TripleClicks, take a moment RIGHT NOW and check it out...we know you're going to love it!!
Here's how it works:
For most Pricebenders auctions of physical goods, each time you win, you now have an option to "flip" the item you've won and put it up for immediate sale at TripleClicks for CASH!
* Your only cost to "flip your win" is the price you won the auction for, plus a nominal $3.50 processing fee to cover our costs to sell the item for you.
* You set the price for what your item sells for--to up to 70% of the MSRP (Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price).
* When the item sells, we deposit the proceeds into your TC Member account. That's it!
Example: You win a Chromebook laptop computer (MSRP $200) for just $20.00 (including the cost of your bids). You set the selling price at $129.00--which is a fantastic price for the customer. Upon the sale, you just made $105.50 in cash! ($129--$20 cost of win--$3.50 processing fee)
FLIPS = SUPER DEALS!
The new "SUPER DEALS" section is set up to sell flipped items--featured both at TripleClicks and on the TC tab at the Affiliate Center.
What makes them"super deals?" Because every item in this new section is at least 30% off the MSRP, and most offer a MUCH greater savings. Why? Because when someone wins a Pricebenders auction for a really low price (which is typical), they're naturally going to be inclined to "price it to sell!"
PLUS, every Super Deal automatically comes with...
* 50 MRP
* 200 VersaPoints (SFI affiliates only)
* 20 bonus TCredits (if the item isn't already bundled with TCredits) (non-SFI affiliates only)

TRIPLECLICKS TIP OF THE WEEK:
Save on shipping with TripleClicks!
Eliminate shipping fees for you, your TC members, and your SFI affiliates by searching for and locating member listings and ECAs offering free shipping or which have items available in the prospective buyer's immediate area.
Here's how:
1. Log in at TripleClicks.com and click the search icon next to the search field at the top of the page.
2. Click a department from the drop down list located on the left side of the page.
3. Next, under Availability in the Filter column, select "Ships to me for free" or the "Local pickup" option to display all member and ECA listings for those options.
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 to the following page and check the "Item is available for local pickup" box:
http://www.tripleclicks.com/myaccount/editListing.php
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!
