In this tweet the other day, Andrew Warner said:
Of all the people I interviewed, Timothy Sykes (@timothysykes) has the most devoted fans, by far. They love him & follow everything he does.
Judging by my Covestor popularity and performance outright domination, the 700 person TIMalert subscriber base just 4 months since inception–and out of 30+ alerts, 25 outright wins of 20%+ hahaha Jewwwwww yahhhhhhh–the 6,000 or so daily website visitors (main site and TIMalerts.com subscribers-only site) and the hundreds of daily dumb to smart questions I get emailed, I’d say he was dead on.
The secret?
Give useful information. Give honest information. Give information that makes people money. Give them information that makes their lives easier.
And don’t hold back.
And promote your testimonials form people you’ve helped banked. Promote them like linking to articles like this one, when you help someone make $40,000 in 4 months.
And publicly fend off all haters and criticisms, that only makes your case stronger.
That’s it.
Seriously.
Just be prepared to spend 15-20 hour days blogging, emailing, linking, researching…
Cuz if you slack, even for a little bit, there are others waiting in the wings.
Well, maybe not in finance…cuz they’re all eogtisitical / non-mistake-admitting scumbags who don’t understand the power of blogging, brutal honesty and new interactive technologies.

Lesson from the past
Reading reminiscences of a stock operator.
“There is the plain fool, who does the wrong thing at all times
everywhere, but there is the Wall Street fool, who thinks he
must trade all the time. No man can always have adequate reasons
for buying or selling stocks daily or sufficient knowledge to
make his play an intelligent play.”
Same thing that Tim has to repeat to people everyday, “Won’t trade until there are good plays”
Livermore found it out 100 years ago and Sykes re-found it 9 years ago. Both made money consistently, we better start taking notice and quit forcing trades everyday.
On a different note, haven;t heard of my top3 timbucks award.
Tim, if the myspace link didn’t work yesterday when I emailed you, it may be because I tagged it as spam. silly me.
That scumbag actually devoted a whole .com to hate on you:
http://www.timothysykesexposed.com
I wouldn’t download the article he has there in case he just uses that to send viruses, but he did do some retarded video clip of unrelated snippets. its pathetic really.
I admit, you are the KING :)
Funds should hire you to learn how to promote their products :)
haha nowhere near the king, just a guy trying to cut through the bs…its pretty easy when i have a quality product that can help people make $
Tim you’re retarded. Why did you make a pretend hater site about yourself?
lol i didnt make it, one of my affiliates did
Nice post Tim and so true. I’m a full time online marketer, but brand new to blogging. Also Like your blogging model and as you can see on my blog, very little focus is on the monetizing of the blog, its all in the branding and promo of our own products.
How are the timbuck elite’s prices going?

Hey - leo - I like being called a scumbag - and the fact that you KNOW that I have viruses… guess you know something I dont.
The point is to bait the haters, then to hook them into buying from Tim - not to spread viruses - you love tim already, so the site was NOT made for you, it was made for the skeptics (I suggest, if you already are a tim alerts subscriber to NOT go to the website and fill out the form).
However, if you aren’t a subscriber and are curious about tim, go check out the site: http://www.timothysykesexposed.com - ONLY if you aren’t already a subscriber.
And I really don’t plan on ever posting that link again on Tim’s website - I’m not a spammer nor is spamming my goal - It’s to bait haters who otherwise wouldnt look at tim… so tim, I promise you I wont post my link on your website and spam it, the people on your website are your people, not mine. I might offer some free bonuses to people who sign up through my link though.

Tim, how do your “TIMALERTS” suit a guy like me who works 9-5 and doesn’t have the chances to always make these timely trades?
Is it worthless for a guy like me to get into the PennyStocking game?
look how many trade si make, just a few times/month…timalerts benefit is that i’m constantly on the lookout for u
yeah Jeremy that seems like a tactical error, for someone that has worked so hard to differentiate himself from the spammy pennystock shysters you seem to put him squarely back in that realm… I’ll leave it to you and Tim to decide your marketing strategies, this one seems whack
I wrote that tweet because after I interviewed you, your fans started writing me.
I had to mark the timothysykesexposed constant daily spam as “spam” because, well, it is. SPAM.
can’t believe you’ve sunk to spamming people
Hey johnnyvento - timothysykesexposed is an affiliate and not sure what you mean by daily spam… we don’t send out any emails. We do not manage that site - or own that site.
hey Pallian - are you based in Dubai ?,
Hey Shane- no, I’m in Vancouver.
cool, me too….so I guess you convinced Tim to do the show in Van :) ….where is he hosting it ?
Exact location will be announced next week… will be in the downtown core.
cool…I am gonna try and make it to this……
hey vento u dumbfuck, timothysykesexposed.com isnt mine, its a satisfied TIMalert subscriber/TIMaffiliate…when someone makes hundreds of dollars per day off a $300 DVD and $30 monthly service, they see its sales potential…welcome to the future, its just beginning
no need for the dumbfuck comment- I know it’s not ‘your’ site but you are allowing it to happen, so you’re letting yourself look like Jason Fuller, but what the fuck do I care- it’s all going into the spam filter anyway
my spam filter now has Viagra, Penis Enlargement, blonde sexy goddess nude, something in Russian, Italian-crafted Rolex for $65, and timothysykesexposed.com 3 daily messages.
please………it’s all cool Tim and I agree that you have a niche and you are trying to juice it. But…….it’s more self promotion than content. Maybe with a little more content you would increase sales and get less “stupid” questions. Or maybe not, but you have to be smarter than this. Although……maybe that’s the whole point very little content and short term suscribers.
And the timothysykesexposed is pure spam, but you can unsuscribe, just check the bottom of one of their stupid emails.
