TeamPSIC Blog Tuesday....survey results

Sports Investors,


I want to thank all of you who emailed and responded to our survey yesterday. Some interesting information has come out of it.  The most concerning is that many of you are still stuck in the rut of micro managing your bankroll.  I can't tell you how detrimental that is to your long term success.

Sports Investing and the sports investor have changed so much over the last 10 years.  The bottom line remains.....STOP GAMBLING and start looking at it like your 401K.

12 years ago I used to do a free trial for my service.  The potential clients were actually very serious about checking out your service and style.  What was ironic is that I would get just as many clients sign up for a longer term or monthly program off a free trial when we had a small losing week as I would when we won.  Fast forward 10 years and as a business person a free trial is a 100% waste of my time.  In this age of sports forums where many of the handicappers picks are posted for free, many of the new breed of gamblers feels as if they are entitled to your information for free.   The last free trial i did...one time I had a losing week 3-4.  The other I went 5-0.  I had one person from the 3-4 week sign up and NONE from the 5-0 week.   I wasn't even a little surprised.  The instant gratification, snapchat, tinder, and sports forum generation is playing right into the sportsbooks hands.  It's me, me, me....who's got the game of the year, why are they not posting it in the forum......
I challenge you guys to change your way of thinking.  If you lose the game you play tonight....SO WHAT?   Do you have a long term plan.  Do you freak out when you check on your 401k and it's down $100?  Nope, many of you probably check on your 401k a few times a year or monthly.  Take that relaxed investment approach into your sports investments.

1. Have a plan or find a reliable service that can help you.
2. Stay Consistent.  Losing streaks will happen. 
3. Have a plan to how you'll handle losing streaks.  MOST IMPORTANT.  How you handle your money during a losing streak can change everything.  If your service has lost 5 in a row and is telling you to bet 20% of your B.R. on the next play, I challenge you to bet 1%.  pull all the way back, see some positive signs before you raise your bet. PROTECT, PROTECT, PROTECT your money.  you cant get to the winning streak if you bust out during one bad run.

.....back to the survey....

As a result of the survey, I had adjusted some of the pricing on the website and also added some monthly options to make it easier for people.  Thanks again for the imput.  One other thing people wish for is that we have money management with the freebies on the blog so I will accommodate that request.  Today is August 1st and the start of our Fiscal Year on the blog.  We will track our plays moving forward both sports and horses
