How much are these Sports Services Making$? (legit tout service)

Journeyman · May 26, 2004

I`m not talking about the out and out liars...

How many have considered starting their very own sports service for money? Don`t lie we know its crossed your mind!

With Sports Gambling more of a year round recreational habit for many, its become more appealing than ever, I would think for the entreprenuers out there...

Very few people make much money doing it the legitimate way. Most people who are astute handicappers who open services can't understand why their phone isn't ringing off the hook. To be successful doing it the right way, someone must be a good handicapper, very good marketer and good salesman(closer). It's true that the scammers make the most money but they also run the risk of getting nabbed by the state or feds for running scams, fraud, tax evasion or most recently kickbacks from offshore sportsbooks. If you want to do it legit and open up a website and market some, don't expect to make more than 20K profit by the second year. There are thousands of services flooding the market and it's almost impossible to make a big splash in this day and age. If you came on the market 12-15 years ago you could have made a decent living at it.

journey ask yourself this.

Tout Service:

how much a lead to customer costs?
how many you want x time basis?
how much is your budget to advertise it?

i like this quote...

All the scammers have basically ruined it for the legitimate services out there. Who wants to pay for 54-55% winners when Wayne Allen Root can go 80% ATS...?

Then you have the services that are legit in that they mean well but they still suck. JR Miller for example. I don't think he's made a dime (literal dime)in two years! But he's got an army of subscribers at $89.95 per month.

I use to follow his website to see if he ever won any money (he does not) and I followed it for a long time ....like you said I think Miller means well but he still sucks...

In fact I use to mock him (as 'JR MILLER' I use to post as him, just to warn people he sucked lol) because paying him was worse than throwing darts!

A clue about what?

Mango Man you hit the nail right on the head, You must be able to pick winner or have a source for winners, build and market your name and close your client all in one, very few people in this industry have that, as most stone cold phone sharks are not knowledgable about the game, and most quality cappers have little people/sales skills. Ive talked to many wannabe cappers who dont understand the concept that without capital and a quality influx of leads you will never be sucessful in an oversaturated market.

scammers messed it all up 1 gets them in debt so they call another one
give out 8+ games aday what a joke

how much would you pay for a real sevice ?

when you called he said we will pass today scammers can not do that

if you got 12 plays a month i think that would be fine because theres always a better play tommorrow
