Just so you know, I (and my team) have roughly 100 hours in the improvements that are being shared, as well as another 9 hours in the development of this particular workshop.
My customers and clients are usually thrilled to pay the small amounts of money charged to ensure that they are on the cutting edge. I hope you can see your way clear to view it from that standpoint. BTW, there IS an Improve/Decline workshop coming as soon as I can quantify the advancements into an updated strategy. (That is still several months away, I believe.)
The almost unanimous feedback I have received from people regarding NewPace, as well as the other products I produce, is that the products are being thoroughly used and enjoyed. The feedback also indicates that these products are considered "good value" for the dollars spent.
People in our industry - that would be the horse handicapping world - are clamoring for good materials. In order for such products to continue being produced, there must be a reasonable financial reward for producing such materials. "Free" will simply not work as a business model.
That said, consider just how much really good information we do put out for free. Next Wednesday will be episode 3 of our Handicapping Live TV cyber show. This show is about The Monty Hall Problem. On that show I will offer up a way to concentrate 2/3 of your winners into 1/3 of your contenders. Free. Did I mention it is completely FREE?
I am trying to raise the bar to a high level and keep it high. We are not some "system mill" cranking out products that come with "get rich quick" claims. We are providing serious, deep research behind the products that go out.
The bottom line for all this is that we live in financial times that are difficult for many (most?) of us. We are trying to offer good value at the lowest possible cost while still justifying being in this industry and producing these materials.
I hope you can see that money spent with us supports that on-going effort and results in everyone getting more and better materials to improve their game.
Regards,
Dave Schwartz

Dave..
We over here at Pace and Cap are a different breed of people.
We are a close knit community that has shared good and bad times with each other. We've met several times around the country and had some good times and continue to each year. We bend over backwards to help each other out and at not one time has their hand open for services rendered.
If you and your team wants to develop products and improvements then by all means go ahead. But remember your doing your advertising on "Free" community boards. Oh yes , I forgot were getting discounts.
Its not the 27 bucks that bothers me, its not much to us OR ever you.
You've taken one concept from the book Percentages and Probabilities and used it to its extreme . Within less than a year you developed Improve/Decline and New Pace and now NP Improvements without a hint of results or feedback from others( I dont consider a one time $100 winner from a poster at PA valid ) . Your a programmer and have a vast database and has a team...how difficult would it have been to produce a program and provide results for everyone to see instead of just throwing it out there?
How much work was done on this when after 3-4 months theres a need for improvements?
On the other hand, Ted has incorporated New Pace into RDSS and has thrown it out to us and didn't ask for a red cent..thats class!!
P.S.- good to hear that Improve/Decline is coming back around again...
