mlm guru doug Allen thread closed. Why?

Quote from trendo:

Would you post the email here? Just curious.
Thanks

I wouldn't normally post copies of private emails or PM's but seeing as this was a mass mailing I don't see posting it would be breaking a confidence....

I counted 8 references to coaching in the email, and just 1 to funding an account which in Doug's opinion comes second to.....coaching!

Subject: About the coaching
From: "Doug Allen" <doug@lookingfortrader.com>


Hi Warren Buffett,

I wanted to send out a quick update about the access to coaching I talked about.

If I'm going to trust somebody to trade my money, it only makes sense for me to give them access to any and all resources that would help them succeed. One of the most valuable resources I have access to is my trading coach, Patty DeMartin.

Patty has been a master trainer for Tony Robbins since 1992. And in case you weren't aware of this, Tony Robbins has been personally coaching one of the world's most successful and famous hedge fund managers since about the same time.

The coaching strategies that Tony and Patty provide is state-of-the-art, world-class performance technology. It doesn't matter what field you're in, or what level of experience. What they have are specific processes that will allow anybody to quickly, and almost effortlessly, close the gap between where they're at now and where they want to be.

I know there have been people that dismissed the coaching aspect of my offer, but knowing what I know about Patty, I can say with 100% certainty that her coaching is more valuable than any trading account I could ever fund.

That's why I'm seriously considering having Patty do a coaching program for everybody who expressed interest in my offer -not just the people who I choose to fund. And don't worry, there will be no charge for this. It will be my way of saying thanks to all the people who supported me in the forum. :)

Doug

I'v had 2 emails from Doug, and neither mentioned Patty or coaching. Strange...

Can you post these mails? Is he weeding out the undesirables with the mass mailing, then handpicking traders for the real mails?

I didn't see anything significant in either email. I squeezed out some white space...

Subject: Trading offer
Thanks for your interest in my offer to fund a trading account for you to manage.
I apologize for not answering everybody individually, but I didn't expect there
would be so many people who were interested in my offer.
The next step is we'll be reviewing the answers to the questionnaire, and preparing a
teleconference to how we are going to proceed. Keep on the lookout for an email
from me announcing the time and date of the conference call. And don't worry, if you miss
it we'll post a recording online.
Once again, I want to thank you for your interest, and let you know that I have the utmost
respect for you. Just the fact that you're reading this now shows that you're one of the few
that will think outside the box to become successful.
I look forward to getting to know you better!

Subject: Quick Note...
I just wanted to send a quick note out to everybody.
A few people asked me why I would be doing something like looking for traders on an online forum. For some reason there are people who don't think this is a legitimate way to find traders.
Well the reason I'm doing this is simple. It's because when I started trading, I had no idea what I was doing. I made every dumb mistake a person could make. But then slowly I started getting better, until I finally reached the point where I found a way to consistently make money.
But the problem was that my personal trading account was relatively small, and even though I was cranking out great returns, the total dollar value of the money I was making wan't life changing.
And then I got a HUGE break...
A fund of funds manager saw my name in a trading organization membership list. He started following my trading results, and then after a couplle of months gave me $100,000 to trade. Within a year he had me trading a $20 million account. The first performance fee he paid me was $996,000.
It was a win-win for both of us. I made nearly a million dollars from trading his money, and his fund made a 100% return and $4 million. And one of the best parts of this experience is the fact that this experienced fund of funds manager became a friend and mentor. I learned more from him in one afternoon that I had learned in an entire year. He shortened my learning curve by about 5 years.
So now here I am, ten years later, I'm a managing partner in a fund of funds, and I'm looking for traders just like my mentor did. I would love nothing more than to partner with undiscovered traders and help them become successful just like what happened with me.
P.S. I'm going through the questionnaires and I'll be sending out the time and date for the conference call in a few days.
Also, if you didn't do the questionnaire yet, it's at: www.lookingfortrader.com
 
I thought about starting a fund of funds, basing it near the Bay of Fundy, only work on Monday, call me Al Bundy.
This is just how seriously I take Douggay!!

Same sequence everyone received... forgot about the other one. Basically aweber emailer service campaign is setup for autosend promotion. Staged for every other day from registration, or similar.

I'm a little too busy with more important tasks than fretting over something whimsical as this. Doug requested a fair chance to prove himself, asked for objective volunteers. Pretty much the extent of things for now.
