I'd like to just buy Ch 1 also, but unfortunately it is apparently only available as a trilogy now with the 2nd and 3rd volumes being currently in the works.I assume you mean Volume 1 and not Chapter 1.
How about letting us buy the Ch 1 PDF on its own again?That's not too likely to happen. Here's the problem. Economics dictate that I make very little on an eBook if I sell it as a standalone product. I bundle it with the other two volumes and membership in my online community at RevolutionPros.com at a combined price of $97, which is $14 less than the combined three PDFs will cost. Now I have enough cash flow to justify my taking the time to write the subsequent volumes.
The total installed base of RunRev is so small that even if everyone who ever bought a license bought one copy of Volume 1, I'd end up making less than I usually get for an advance on a book where I don't have to do any of the marketing, support, etc. So I can't see a way to make economic sense out of selling one volume at a time.
That said, I am offering all chapters after Vol. 1 singly at an average of $5 each. It has occurred to me that I *could* make the chapters of Volume 1 available one by one at a similar price point if there were sufficient interest in the community.
I'm listening. Sorry I can't accommodate your request but maybe there are other ways of doing this. I'm receptive to ideas.
This series of books is as much a labor of love giving back to the Rev community as anything else. that said, I'd like to cover my costs and some reasonable profit for what amounts to a huge amount of work.

I would like to purchase an electronic copy of Dan Shafer's book but I am not sure how to. (I just want volume 1 to get me started.) I have been unable to figure out how to do this on your web site. Part of the problem is that I can not remember my password for the site. If you could give me any help on this, I would appreciate it.
