How Small Investors Gain Such a Big Advantage Over Wall Street

By Guy Cohen

You might think that you and your investments don’t stand a chance against the Wall Street giants. But the fact is, you can gain a big advantage simply by doing one incredibly simple thing:

Stay small.

That means steering clear of the big investment firms. Keeping your money out of massive mutual funds managed by someone more interested in his image than your cash.

In the financial markets, as a small investor managing your own money, you can prevail against the big institutions whose performance is, let’s face it, average at best. The key to success is speed – which is something the Wall Street giants are seriously lacking. It takes them longer to jump on new opportunities or jump ship when things turn south. As a small investor, you can nearly always buy and sell anything you want, literally with the click of your mouse. Your order is filled immediately. And no one is paying attention to what you’re doing, because your trade barely registers on the radar.

And here’s the real kicker: You can monitor the actions of the big institutions because their activity is easy to spy on!

You see, the big institutions need to trade in such large volumes that their activities are immediately obvious to anyone paying attention. And as a small investor, by paying attention you stand to make a small fortune by stalking your prey and pouncing with rapier speed at just the right time.

For example, let’s say ACME is a stock that’s been stuck in a small price range for the last few days. As an educated investor you’re already aware that this stock has the potential to make a big move. The institutions start buying in large numbers, pushing the stock price up – but they’re not done yet. To make money, the big institutions have to buy in such large volumes that it takes days for them to accumulate their positions.

You’re observing this activity and, as the stock price breaks out of its recent tight range, you load up and buy your required quota in just a few seconds with a few clicks of your mouse.

The institutions are still not done, and have to keep buying at higher and higher prices. The stock keeps rising, now at even greater speed as the big funds double up on their investment, pushing the stock to new highs. But remember, you’re already in, happily riding on their coattails.

Abe in Virginia used this strategy for two years, transforming his account from $10,000 to $140,000.

“This is the one pattern in the markets that I pay attention to,” says Abe, “because when the stock flies it can mean triple-digit returns in a matter of days.”

3 Inside Secrets of Internet Success

By Yanik Silver

In a few short months, I was able to achieve the ultimate Internet “fantasy” of making a lot of money from a simple (almost primitive) website that ran virtually on autopilot. Starting from scratch, I banked over $51,351.94 in my first 6.5 months online, just working part-time out of the corner of my living room.

I was 31 years old, and already on track to pull in six figures a year.

How did I go from a standing start to banking mega profits?

I did it with what I consider to be three inner secrets to Internet success. It has nothing to do with search engines or pay-per-click ads or any of the tactical stuff. It’s all about stuff that goes on in your head.

• Secret #1: Have “Cheerful Expectancy”

One of my main mentors was Earl Nightingale, who passed away several years ago. In his programs, he talks about having “cheerful expectancy.”

There’s a big difference between cheerful expectancy and hoping or wishing something is going to happen. When you have cheerful expectancy, you know it’s going to occur. And that doesn’t come from being a “Pollyanna” or looking at the world through rose-colored glasses.

It comes from having knowledge. And you get that knowledge by studying your field, whether it’s Internet marketing or neurology – by completely immersing yourself in it.

I learned from Earl Nightingale that if you want to be an expert on any subject, you have to spend at least an hour a day reading up on it. Knowledge gives you the confidence to have that positive expectancy. Your expectations determine your results.

• Secret #2: Do One Proactive Thing Every Day

You don’t need to do 100 things a day to be successful as an Internet marketer. Just do one proactive thing. By laying one little brick at a time, you will eventually build a big wall.

Don’t tell yourself, “Oh, I need to do e-zine ads and free-for-alls and pay-per-click search engines – and I need to do all this other stuff too!”

Agh!

Don’t overwhelm yourself. Just relax.

Make a commitment to do one proactive thing a day, no matter what. Even if you’re dead tired and worked a 14-hour day – come home and mail one letter or send out one joint venture proposal. I’m telling you, these little actions will have an immense impact.

One of my apprentices – Peter W. from the UK – is a perfect example of how powerful this can be. Peter was an Internet newbie and he also had a full-time job, so he was slow to get started. However, he took my advice and managed to do one proactive thing every single day. Whether it was something small (like writing one auto-responder message) or big (like writing 50 headlines), Peter was moving ahead. And, not surprisingly, he completed his first online project before most of my other apprentices.

• Secret #3: Make Quick Decisions

A lot of people have trouble making a decision. They don’t like to do it, because it cuts off their other options. Frankly, that’s the point. You want to cut off your other options so you’re forced to move forward. It can motivate you like nothing else.

And something magical seems to happen when you make a decision. I don’t understand it and I can’t explain it. But when you set your mind to do something, all of a sudden you meet people who can help you get to where you want to go. It’s like once a decision has been made, your mind gets tuned into it and all kinds of “freaky” coincidences start occurring.

Don’t be afraid of making the wrong decision – just make a decision. If you make a mistake, who cares? What you want to do is get all your mistakes out of the way, learn from them, and move on. Don’t be afraid of failure. Fail quickly. That will speed up the time it takes you to succeed.

(Michael Masterson calls this the Secret of Accelerated Failure.)

That’s a great thing about being an Internet marketer. You can test your idea and find out if it’s going to work right away – in days instead of months. Sometimes hours. If it doesn’t work, you say “Next!” If it does work, you keep on making it better.

As Michael Masterson says, “Ready, Fire, Aim!”

That’s what I did with our first product, InstantSalesLetters.com. I got it to the point where it was good enough to test. I quickly found out that, yes, there was a market for it, that I could sell it. And then I kept adding to it and making it better.

If you want to be a successful online marketer, that’s what you have to do.

• Expect that it will eventually happen.
• Do at least one thing every day to get your first product idea ready to test.
• When you’re ready, don’t hesitate. Make the decision and get it out there. If it works, keep making it better. If it doesn’t work, fail quickly… and go on to your next idea.

Where the Best Sales Copy Comes From

By John Carlton

People ask me how I’m able to write such gritty, fascinating sales copy. For products and ventures that seem, to the uninitiated eye, so far removed from anything gritty or fascinating.

And the answer comes from life itself.

The more a copywriter understands the way things really are – outside of wishful thinking – the more powerful he becomes as a communicator. His job, as a creator of ads, is to bring with him a nuanced and loving knowledge of life that is beyond the experience of his reader.

It’s a big damn responsibility. He must learn to face truths that are, at times, extremely unpleasant. And he’s gotta read the news. Because his job is to position himself precisely where the necessities of life intersect with the powerful passions of being human.

Copywriters – and especially those who understand the psychology of classic salesmanship – live better lives. The rest of the population will refuse to feel things too passionately, because it scares them. They like being numb. But copywriters voluntarily give up their ability to remain numb and dreamy about reality. They engage, and pay attention to their emotions, their passions, and their fears.

Go Organic to Fight Breast Cancer

By Kelley Herring

We’ve long lauded the benefits of choosing organic foods over those that are conventionally grown. Not only do organic foods taste better, they are higher in nutrients and free from metabolism-disrupting chemicals.

And it turns out that “eating organic” is especially important for children. One example: A study published in Environmental Health Perspectives found that women who were exposed to relatively high levels of DDT prior to mid-adolescence were five times more likely to develop breast cancer than women with lower exposures when they were young.

While DDT was banned in the U.S. in 1972, unfortunately we’re not safe from its negative effects. DDT is still used in other counties (including Mexico) on crops that are imported into the U.S. and end up on our plates.

Local farmers’ markets and your own backyard offer affordable options to keep the poison off your plate and protect your children’s future health.

[Ed. Note: Kelley Herring - founder of Healing Gourmet - has created a revolutionary health transformation program called Your Plate, Your Fate. In this 7-part program you'll learn how to protect your health and optimize your weight by maximizing the nutrients in your food. Plus, you'll get 3 bonus books to help clear your kitchen of harmful ingredients, spot the nutritional deficiencies that could be setting you up for disease, and the 20 tests your doctor should perform (but probably hasn't) to guard your health.

It’s Good to Know: The New Google?

Ever wondered what the weather was like on the day you were born? How about what it cost for the U.S. to put a man on the moon?

Using the usual online and offline research resources, you could spend hours to find the answers to questions like those – if you could do it at all.

Enter Wolfram Alpha, a new search engine created by Dr. Stephen Wolfram that’s about to be launched. Instead of giving you a long list of Web pages (a la Google), it’s intended to provide specific, accurate answers to any question you might pose by combing and “intelligently” cross-referencing sources it finds on the Internet and in private databases.

Word to the Wise: Latitudinarian

A “latitudinarian” (lat-uh-too-din-AIR-ee-un) – from the Latin for “wide” – is someone who is broadminded and tolerant, especially in religious matters.

Example (as used by Caleb Crain in American Sympathy): “[Sir Thomas] More was nothing like his supposed example, the gently latitudinarian Cicero, for instance: Cicero’s philosophical and religious dialogues (as opposed to his legal and political speeches, of course) often read as if he delighted in being contradicted, while More’s are spittingly conclusive.”
