Reputation Management eBook (Update, Stats & Affiliates)

So it’s been a while since I wrote anything about the online reputation management eBook. With information being my future main income (I no longer accept new clients), I’ve taken the time for things to pan out rather than rushing around and messing up the product.

The eBook is now priced at $39, although this may cause a decrease in sales it is assuring that people who really want the product can still get the value and time wasters who are only half interested won’t waste their energy. I think this is still a very reasonable price for the content included and the uniqueness in the niche.
