TIME FRAME & FEES

Their “Picasso” Tech services described in step 2, will take approx. 3 months to eliminate bad press from the 1st and 2nd page. The whole process will take about a year to be solidified. Fees will be approx. $10k -$15k per month but depends on each case and costs can be kept down by providing content and selecting only truly necessary services.

WIKIPEDIA

This is a tough nut to crack. And I need to do more research on this. Wiki comes up first on the Google list due to its powerful domain and contains totally lopsided and damning content on you.

But we’ll crack it. On the surface, Wiki is controlled by a morass of copyediting geeks who have nothing better to do than to discuss reference tags etc. It is also ‘the people’s’ encyclopedia, dictated by the tyranny of the majority—so no objectivity at all.

Current Strategy— 1. The Reputation group have a copyright team dedicated to balancing the content on Wikipedia and gradually sectioning the bad stuff down to sub categories in the profile. They don’t seem to be able to eliminate the bad though. 2. So, I think it’s worth seeing how people like Prince Andrew managed to create an absolutely stellar profile—or Bill Clinton for that matter. No mention of his impeachment or lying to the Grand Jury. It barely touches on Lewinsky etc. 3. There are also protected pages on Wiki but I need more time and research.

WEBSITE

You need to update your website immediately by adding the bio on you from The Edge if you can and adding a longer summary of science and scientists that you are/have worked with.
