Buying and Selling in the Stock Market From Home

A couple of years ago I started working with this young fellow in Florida, Jimmy Hernandez, a Cuban who had been trading stocks online for some time with relative success. Jimmy thought that everything he had learnt making, and sometimes losing, his money while trading stocks on the Net could be the subject of a book and that's when How to become a millionaire in the stock market was born (that's an affiliate link).

When I met Jimmy on the phone I only needed a few minutes to say “why not?, let's give his idea a try.”

Jimmy had just a Word file with the first draft of his book and a template based website, which I never liked that much and now I'm helping to redesign for launching a better version in a few weeks. I spent some time designing the book, learning about the publishing business, enabling the payment processing in his site and testing many many times.

Now it sounds quick and easy but there were a lot of details involved and it took us more than six months until the first book was sold.

Jimmy's case is a clear example of a successful teleworker. He has profited from his knowledge in buying and selling stocks using many of the Internet based brokers and then transformed that experience into an information product that in nine months has sold more than 5000 copies. Go get a calculator, I'll wait here, and think about that. Yes, it is a lot of cash.

But my good friend hasn't stopped there, now we are working on new features and products for his site and there's an affiliate program on the horizon. It has already been proved that Jimmy's book sells and sells good, why not sharing a few bucks with others?

I'm proud of having collaborated with Jimmy and see him running his operation completely online. I've never met this guy in person but we've been able to create a healthy business relationship and put a completely virtual business on fire. Isn't that cool?

Has Jimmy Got a Secret?

I don't know. Maybe being patient enough and spending nearly two years in creating a good product?, the title of his book?, or perhaps being one of the few Internet merchants, if not the only one, helping Spanish speaking people how to trade stocks online?

Two years ago I thought the book's title was a little pretentious, now I'm not so sure. Why don't you take a look and maybe you can also learn how to become a millionaire in the stock market.
