30 Dec 2013 - New Year 2014 is coming

I just sent this inspiring letter with my Newyear wishes to my affiliates.
**********

I don't know what time it is exactly in your part of the world, but where I live it has been about 1 hour into the last day of the year.

 

So, time to convey to you my best wishes for the new year 2014 and may it be your most successful year of business with SFI ever. Since it also the end of the month, it is time for a deadline, if you haven't achieved the rank of Executive Affiliate yet, you may have a day or just a few hours left to gain it. Never mind, even if you didn't participate in the company pool earnings or will not get into the winners pool in my monthly contest, you can always start tomorrow, with the start of a new year and a new hope for a better future. SFI can make the difference for you, it did for me, so why would it not do so for you?

 

Once more, best wishes and see you after the fireworks!

 

Your dedicated Team Leader,

Dirk Vanderdonckt

Now for the E365 Contest Ranking, we are in the last 6 months of our contest. Things will be heating up towards the end, I think. 

1. Mary Horn - 41426 VP 
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 34928 VP
3. Vojko Postruznik -  28819 VP 
4. June Todd - 25553 VP

28 Dec 2013 - Almost New Year

Today I made 30 vp for following Tripleclicks and Pricebenders auctions on Twitter. Then another 30 vp for writing a mail to all my affiliates, counting over 500. As statistics in online marketing point out, only 1% of those affiliates will be active and this is indeed the fact here. I have now 2 Bronze Team Leaders in my team and a 2 or 3 more who are logging in regularly or at least doing something. I have one who is qualified as EA, though she hasn't logged in since quite a few days.

As in every new post, here is the ranking in E365 for today:

1. Mary Horn - 41397 VP
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 34899 VP
3. Vojko Postruznik -  30139 VP
4. June Todd - 25501 VP
5. Christina Ings - 21914 VP
6. Victor De Legarreta - 21646 VP
7. Shanda Secondi -  18189 VP
8. Muzi Maseko - 17492 VP
9. Anil Radalage - 16833 VP
10. Alida Koegelenberg -  15955 VP

27 December 2013 - Back Home

I'm back home after a long drive from Poland and quickly updating my ranking report. Seems I lost the versapoints from the first Standing Order I did 6 months ago today.

Here's today's ranking:

1. Mary Horn - 41387 VP
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 34885 VP
3. Vojko Postruznik -  30032 VP
4. June Todd - 25475 VP
5. Christina Ings - 22673 VP

7. Shanda Secondi -  18193 VP
8. Muzi Maseko - 17482 VP
9. Anil Radalage - 16849 VP
10. Alida Koegelenberg -  15943 VP

25 December 2013 - Merry Christmas

After watching several movies about Santa with the family, it's time to do the business again. I have clicked my red tabs today and see that my vp still increases. I remember those very first days in my SFI membership I wasn't actually clicking them everyday. Now for Anil, look how he dropped from position 8 to 9 in the ranking yesterday, with over 1200 vp less than the day before. It looks like he went on a standing order right from the beginning of his membership, which is definitely great, but I think he got distracted or disappointed, and isn't that active anymore, proof that he is dropping from position #1 which he had at the start of the Contest and now slowly disappearing from the Top 10 even. We have to somehow keep the inspiration and especially be patient and never give up!

Here the ranking for today:

1. Mary Horn - 41365 VP
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 36083 VP
3. Vojko Postruznik -  30039 VP
4. June Todd - 25446 VP
5. Christina Ings - 22140 VP
6. Victor De Legarreta - 22038 VP
7. Shanda Secondi -  20020 VP
8. Muzi Maseko - 17460 VP
9. Anil Radalage - 16880 VP
10. Alida Koegelenberg -  15962 VP

20 December 2013 - On vacation

After a long drive, we have arrived at the in-laws and enjoying our vacation. Still, internet business never sleeps and even on the trip, I keep logging in and clicking my red tabs.

17 December 2013 - Lifetime Custom Domain

I was bidding on a Pricebenders auction yesterday for a Lifetime Custom Domain. It is weird, while some people win auctions at just a few cents, whenever I bid on an auction, there seem to be so many people bidding. I gave up, since it was getting too late for me. Now, I have little Tcredits left, so I will keep the rest for next month, unless.... I get the bidding fever again.

OK, today's ranking. I found a more easy way of finding the points. Phew, and I was all the time going and searching on each countries ranking, but... here a page is just presenting the ranking all by itself. Go to Leaders, Power Rankings, then in the dropdown box at the top, choose My Class and leave Top 50. On that page you get an overview of all those affiliates that joined the same day as you.

Here's my Class (22 June 2013) Power Ranking for today:

1. Mary Horn - 40660
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 35246
3. Vojko Postruznik -  29423
4. June Todd - 25321
5. Victor De Legarreta - 22000
6. Christina Ings - 21932
7. Shanda Secondi -  19821
8. Anil Radalage - 18172
9. Muzi Maseko - 16746
10. Alida Koegelenberg -  15909

16 Dec 2013 - Travel To Poland Soon

Christmas is coming. 9 days to go. And this Christmas we will be traveling to my in-law family in Poland. Getting the car ready, it needs some repairs for the trip. Then, vacation time, I'm not sure I will be posting every day. We will be back 27 December. Whoa! Versapoints are starting to expire 180 days after being awarded, except for some one time action rewarded ones. I guess, that will see some dropping in my vp starting from the 19th of December. And that means also, that starting from the 23rd of Dec. whatever vp I earn will be totally counting towards the end of the E365 Contest. Have I counted correct? 22 June 2014 minus 180 days is 23rd of Dec. right?

1. Mary Horn - 40371
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 35200
3. Vojko Postruznik -  29403

15 December 2013 - I got a new domain name

Amazing, I went to Google Trends yesterday, saw Mega Millions at the top of most searched terms and then went for a domain search to see if anything would be matching, then it pops up http://greatmillions.com is still free! Great! Wow! Looks like a premium domain name, and I bought it for just $10.... My lucky day, result from the Friday 13th? hahaha.

11 December 2013 - Again a Standing Order

As it appears, many of my contestants chose to have a standing order around the 10th of the month, today I see apparently #1 Mary has done her Standing Order fulfillment, as well as Vojko. Let's just have a look at the ranking today.

1. Mary Horn - 39972

10 December 2013 - The Contest

I have 2 great persons in my team so far, who already requalified as EA in the first third part of the month, let's see how the others will do this month. On the front of the E365 contest, no big changes, except a few swaps in position, though it looks like I slowly catch in on the first one. It appears some of my E365 contestants have their Standing Order set up for around the 10th of the month, a clever tactic, but I prefer the 1st of each month.

1. Mary Horn - 38466
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 35021
3. Vojko Postruznik -  27694
4. June Todd - 25206
5. Victor De Legarreta - 22013
6. Christina Ings - 21697
7. Shanda Secondi -  19706
8. Anil Radalage - 18138
9. Alida Koegelenberg -  15827
10. Muzi Maseko - 15659

8 December 2013 - Bidding Day

Today I bid over 100 Tcredits on a Silver76 Pack and didn't win. Too bad. It all depends on luck, I would say. You may have many people bidding and some more looking on, waiting till the heavy hitters lost their Tcredits and disappeared, but still, there may be just that magic moment where everyone else is absent, distracted, clicked too late when the timer ran out and then... Whoa, I won!
It is a hilarious feeling, after following a Pricebenders auction for a couple of hours, bidding each time when you see the timer running out to Going Once, Going Twice and then quickly adding your bid, sometimes you're the only one who bid against the heavy hitter, who put (who knows how many??) Tcredits on his/her autobidder, sometimes you notice a couple of others clicked at the same time as you did. And then, you see your name standing there with the time running down, 10...5....2...1  Going Once, Going Twice and BAM, too bad, someone just clicked at the very last moment. And again you try.... till some day you win! Hooray!
It's hilarious, BUT.... you must like it. I understand it is not for everybody. Yet, I'm hooked, addicted, can't wait till the next auction. I notice I use up my Tcredits faster month after month. However, I keep within my budget.

Now for the E365 Ranking Today, after I bought another 100 Tcredits:
1. Mary Horn - 38395
2. Dirk Vanderdonckt - 34996
3. Vojko Postruznik -  27644
4. June Todd - 23607
5. Christina Ings - 21190
6. Victor De Legarreta - 20447
7. Anil Radalage - 18116
8. Shanda Secondi -  17898
9. Alida Koegelenberg -  15790
10. Muzi Maseko - 15596
