We had the good fortune of connecting with Ken Berman and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Ken, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
I was a successful stockbroker in the mid-1990s. There was a ceiling as to the number of clients I could communicate with each day. I also realized that online brokerages were beginning to steal business from the full-service brokerages in a big way with their inexpensive commissions per transaction. This led to a lack of guidance for do-it-yourself investors. I looked to fill that gap.

What should our readers know about your business?
I believe what sets Gorilla Trades apart from other stock market advisory services is its transparency. No recommendations are ever “forgotten.” Each stock recommendation is followed from start to finish, guiding subscribers along the way, communicating when to buy and when to sell each position. I demand that my employees treat subscribers the exact same way that they would like to be treated. This has not only led to an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau (BBB), but nearly 98% positive reviews on various third-party websites.
