A. MARKETING AND TRADEMARKS

A.1. SFM is designed to provide a level playing field for all its independent Affiliates and to prevent "sponsor shopping" (and cross recruiting) by or on behalf of its Customers/Users. In the case of a dispute, the new Customer enrollment is credited to the affiliate who FIRST generated the new Customer as a lead or application. The disputing affiliates may agree to allow a new Customer to move if the Customer agrees, but the credit for the enrollment rightfully belongs to the affiliate that generated the original lead or application.

A.2. Cross Recruiting:

a) SFM will not tolerate any active marketing of personal services, or proprietary derivatives of personal services, to any SFM member outside of your personal sales organization. This process, known as "cross recruiting" will result in immediate account suspension.

b) SFM is designed provide an equal opportunity for every marketer regardless of their experience and level of income. In order to maintain the integrity of the system, SFM uses a 3-strike "poaching" policy. Automatic monthly internal account audits ensure that new members are enrolled under the appropriate sponsor.

c) All SFM members who are found to enroll a new member who is NOT originally their applicant will be asked to explain why they enrolled that new member. If a satisfactory explanation for the violation cannot be provided, the account will be noted with a "strike." All members start with zero strikes and are allowed two strikes. Once a total of three strikes has been accumulated, the account will automatically be suspended for 30-days and labeled as "high risk" while we conduct a full audit and review of the account.

d) It is your responsibility to ensure that every member you enroll is YOUR applicant and not someone else's. If you are are unsure or feel like your prospect may not be completely honest with you, email support@thesfm.com to verify if there is already an application in the system for this person.

e) We suggest that you specifically ask EVERY prospect if they have already spoken with another SFM member or submitted an application. If in doubt, you can even tell them that poaching and cross recruiting is strictly forbidden and that your account could possibly be suspended if you enroll them.

If you have questions or concerns regarding this Membership Agreement, you should contact us by e-mailing compliance@digitalexpertsacademy.com and writing "Membership Agreement" in the subject line.
