Harlan Kilstein Exposes Dubious Online Marketing Tactics
By Anna Johnson on October 26th, 2009Never one to hold back from expressing his opinion, Internet marketer and copywriter Harlan Kilstein has unleashed two videos blasting what he calls ‘scammers’ over their questionable online marketing practices.
