    Default Gross Annual revenue for paid "tout" services

    So how many dollars do these so called tout services( the ones that actually produce winners) actually generate annually?? Does anyone here know? I am just curious to see how much these services actually make a year.

    It has to be in the tens of millions, maybe hundreds of millions.

    I know someone who makes 7 figures. The big boys probably make 8 figures. A small timer probably makes 5 figures. I am assuming of course a handicapper who is good and builds a loyal following. Handicappers who aren't any good will get some business but they won't get the very important repeat customers.

    A handicapper contacted me on here and wanted $500 per pick. I'm guessing that he gets customers, his pitch appealed to the greedy. if he was working lots of forums and getting a few customers a week from each he could easily make $10 K a week. If he was any good some of these customers would stay with him until he hit a losing streak.

    I would guess it is like anything else, the majority squeak by, the top 10 or 20% do quite well.

    Really? I would have thought more like 50-100 customers per week.

    A handicapper won't get that kind of customer base unless they get repeat customers and word of mouth customers. Which means they have to win consistently, people who subscribe to these services are very fickle. The big boys have that kind of volume, most handicappers don't.

    Any idea what Sebastian would pull in ?

    I'd think into 6 figures.
