Twas The Eve of TTSmas...
Excitement is close to the proverbial fever pitch, dear reader, here at Nag Towers, downtown Hackney. The reason for such uncontrolled anticipation? Need I even say... Yes, it is less than 26 hours until the big launch of TrainerTrackStats 2008/9, and I have news of a ridiculously special offer, even by my own generous standards!
I told you a bit about what TTS is, and what it can do for you, yesterday. And today, I'm going to tell you how you can get a copy...
OK, so here's the deal:
Sorry for shouting in red, and no, we haven't quite gone barking mad.... Let me explain.
Since starting up TrainerTrackStats some years ago now, one of the things I've learned is that for many people, they are either not sure which horses qualify, or they just don't have the time. Heck, in some cases, people simply can't be bothered to compare the manual against the next day's racing page! I know, I know, it came as a surprise to me too! ;o)
So this is how things will work this season:
Tomorrow at midday you go to the TTS Site and click the 'Get TTS For £1' button. When you do this, you will actually be presented with THREE options, as follows:
- Bronze: £1 for the TTS manual, PLUS 30 days' access to the member site where qualifiers will be published.
- Silver: £87 for the TTS manual, PLUS a half season's access to the member site where qualifiers will be published (i.e. up to Christmas).
- Gold: £147 for the TTS manunal, PLUS access to the member site where qualifiers will be published for the entire season, i.e. to end April 2009.
I want to be absolutely clear about a couple of things here...
1) By taking TTS for £1 you will be signed up to a monthly subscription. After 30 days, if you still wish to have access to the members' area, where all qualifiers are posted, you need do nothing. You will be billed £37 thirty days from when you signed up, and monthly thereafter.
2) If you do not wish to have access to the members' site and instead would rather identify qualifiers yourself, that's absolutely fine. You get the manual for £1, and there are no strings attached (save for the one above, which you may cut at any time).
3) If you know you want to get the subscription, which is exactly the same as the email versions from previous seasons, then there are healthy discounts for taking a season ticket or a half-season ticket. In fact, the cost comes down from £1.19 a day for monthly subscribers, to just 60p a day with the season ticket. [Given the prices your average tipping line charges, I hope you consider this at least a fair price...]
4) If you start with a £1 trial, you may upgrade your membership at any time to half season or season ticket.
5) There will be NO refunds for TTS! Why? Because a) we're charging you a quid(!!), and b) you have plenty of time to decide whether or not to continue receiving the members' information.
If you don't think the above is fair, then TTS will not be for you. I mean, charging 100 pence for a product with a proven track record, and not offering a refund is pretty rich, isn't it?! Ahem.
Enough already... tomorrow.... midday.... get TTS.
Then, from 1st September (in fact, 2nd September will be the first jumping action), enjoy comparing your idea of the qualifiers against the official view, and get your 'TTS bearings'.
Cancel your subscription if you want to before 30 days have elapsed, and you will never be charged a penny more.
To be honest, Gavin and I are taking a pretty big risk here. In the worst case, we will sell a helluva lot of £1 items and lose money on the deal. But that's a short term view... You see, even if that happens, we'll have put TTS in front of a lot of people who wouldn't otherwise have seen it, and they'll have a chance to decide for themselves whether or not Messrs. Priestley and Bisogno are worth doing business with.
In my book, that's a win win already. :o)
I actually like being somebody trusted in a sea of unknown fish, many of whom have big sharp teeth. And if that means I make less money sometimes, what the hey (as they say in the States - sorry for that!).
But we're not daft. It's a calculated gamble on our part: we know from past experience that roughly a third of people who sign up for the guide also at least try the subscription service. Sometimes its been as high as two fifths and sometimes as low as one fifth. Whatever happens, Gavin and I remain committed to providing value for money and never leaving the recipient feeling short changed.
So, I hope to see you on the inside.... :oP

p.s. Did I mention that you can get it from midday tomorrow at www.TrainerTrackStats.com?!

Fair play guys, you cant offer better value then that! Looking for to tomorrow!
A quid - feck! Where do I sign?!
Amazing offer! I was going to pay the monthly subscription anyway so this extra offer is a bonus!
The only thing that concerns me now is how this cheap/risk free service will effect the prices/odds of the horses we/you select.
Even the likes of Max Redd from a dodgy publishing house are recommending this system (Matt - are they your new employers?)and I feel too much TTS product awareness is going to have a negative effect in the long run!
Let's hope I'm wrong but I've seen this happen before with other hot products/tipsters.
Either way I'm sure the profits will come but how much? Time will tell!
I would be a bit concerned, reputation-wise, about associating myself with the much maligned, and rightly so, MAX REDD and associates.
This is a great idea -- I wish you lots of success. I shall (of course) be partaking of your generous offer.
I was hoping you would be continuing with emailing the selections and this is an excellent way to allow the lazy among us to pay for someone else to do the legwork.
