OK all you MyLot money makng wizzards is SFI affiliate program a scam???

Good question! I joined Eye Earn which is part of SFI. They say that you get paid for sticking a sticker on your vehicle~ the catch, you have to go on and submit a new photo every month plus update your profile every month. I have received 25 cents the first month and so far 15 cents the second, which they put into my account. I think that it will take an awful long time to get my investment of $20 back. The good thing~ I got a cool t-shirt for the $20 and both of my boys will wear it.

Not a scam. SFI is a well-established company with a product line and several ways to make money. It may not be the easiest affiliate program to make money with, but it is very possible to earn money without putting your own money into it. Since it's a FREE affiliate site, they don't require you to spend money and they pay every month, how can it possibly be called a scam?

Hi TriciaW, I know this is a bit dated now, but here's my two bob's worth. SFI is mostly legitimate - I say mostly because it does employ what I consider to be some "creative" marketing, which I'll get to. SFI has an excellent range of environmentally friendly home-care and health products, for which there is a definite consumer demand. You can sponsor affiliates into SFI, and so long as you personally generate some product turnover each month, you can earn commissions on the product turnover generated by your down-line affiliates. Here's a few things that aren't quite obvious to new SFI affiliates - 1. It's not really viable for international affiliates. That's just my personal opinion, based on the prohibitive cost of shipping SFI products overseas, and on the relative worthlessness of SFI's so-called "digital products" which it wants to flog to international customers. 2. It is quite viable for affiliates who live in North America (ie, YOU). Their core products are very good, and can be shipped relatively cheaply across North America. 3. SFI claims that you don't have to buy any products yourself to qualify for downline commissions - they claim that you can generate product turnover by selling products to "customers". This is nonsense - I know, because I checked this personally. 99% of all SFI product turnover is just SFI Affiliates buying products for their own use. If their IS any "customer" sales going on, it's the exception, not the norm. So if you want to generate product turnover to qualify for downline commissions, then most likely you'll have to buy SFI products for your own use (which you CAN do in North America - not so easy if you live overseas). 4. SFI promotes something called a "Powerline" (or they did, last time I looked). My advice: just ignore it. The "Powerline" is a sneaky marketing device which is just smoke and mirrors - no matter HOW MANY new affiliates join SFI, you'll make no more from the "Powerline" than if just one new affiliate gets sponsored in all of SFI after you join. The amount you get rewarded from the "Powerline" is mathematically rigged to stay the same forever - check out the fine details if you like, or just wait a few months and see if the "Powerline" bonus gets any bigger (it won't). So, bottom line, SFI is probably a viable way to earn some income if you live in North America. They have good products (at least, good CORE products) and they do pay monthly commissions on your downline product turnover. It's not really much use to anyone who DOESN'T live in North America. Shipping is way too expensive, and "digital products" are basically crapola. So fill your boots and give it a go, for sure! Just be realistic with your expectations - don't swallow all SFI's glowing propaganda, because some (a lot?) of it really needs a pinch of salt.

From my experience, SFI and all of those MLMs are scams. You are never going to get something for nothing. Even here on myLot, you have to post quite a bit to ever get paid for it. And, that's fine if you have lots of time to spend posting. I'm too busy working for real money to waste my time on things that may or may not pay and if they do, they probably don't pay much. You'd do better off coming up with a legitimate money-making business whether it be a service or labor.

SFI stands for what? i never heard this site. i want to research this site if you can give me their web address. that's the problem sometimes we can't access anything online that can prove a site a scam unless proven by one of their members. am not yet their member.

I belonged to that program a year ago, but never earned a dime. It is over a year old, so I assume if it were a scam we'd know, and they'd be out of business. If you're good at these types of affiliate programs, then you may do well. I was unable to, and will not try again. Best of luck to you.

I am not a member, but I have heard that SFI affiliate is not a scam. You may want to see how many people take part in the program, that will make a difference in how hard it is going to be to actually make money with them without a unique niche.

SFI is listed with the BBB so therefore any company not listed with BBB is a scam!
