Hi GDIers

I was reading this thread and I can imagine that organizations like churches might have a problem if one individual (you as a GDI affliate) will have financial benefits from all the members that buy into the website that you provided for them for free.  Hope I understood the idea about this correctly.  But I think with Sportsclubs you have a different situation.  I was especially thinking about gholf clubs.  Gholf clubs tend to generate the perception in a community that they are financially well off.  Therefor the idea of them generating residual income might fit them better than NPO's   

I want to build a good team in GDI therefor I would like to get your ideas on what you the the major reasons are why new affiliates drop out of a program like GDI (or any other affiliate program for that matter).  You answers would help me to look at those areas more closely and reduce the drop out rate in my team.  Hope not this question has been asked before.  Did not have the time to check.  Thanks.

Hi there all GDI'ers. 
I have been an affiliate of GDI for a few months now, but I haven't participated in the forum yet.  I am amazed.  It is really a BIG family!  Well here is South Africa we our proud of big families.  The Xhosa people talk about UBUNTU - the spirit of togetherness.  It seems here are ubuntu in abundance at GDI!  I will call my GDI team the UBUNTU team, because together we will make a difference.  Good luck and success to you all.  If you do not know what Madiba Magic is.  Well that is the affectionate nickname for our former president Nelson Mandela.  Just do a search for that name - 500000 pages!  That's Madiba Magic!
