Free Stuff Friday
Happy Friday !Welcome to another edition of Damian's FR-EE Stuff Friday's =o)"Giving you the best Real Estate Internet tools I use to grow my own business, and best of all, always for FR-EE!" We're automated investors. We're virtual investors. We're cruising the World-Wide-Web at 10,000 MPH!! Or maybe not...If you've heard me say it once, you've heard me say it a thousand times - the Internet and technology are the fastest and most powerful way to grow your REI business WHEN they are used the RIGHT WAY!This is true of any tool or resource. > A mechanics drill without a power source is a useless hunk of metal.> A professional flat-top 5-burner stove won't make a single edible meal if there is not a gas supply.And all the technology and internet tools in the world won't help you one bit if you're trying to surf the web with a lead surfboard!----------------------------------------Want More FR-EE Stuff? Like Over 211 Of My Best REI Training Videos, FR-EE?Go Here Now: http://www.Dont-Tell-Mom-I-Invest.com----------------------------------------This week I want to share a very simple and helpful tool with you.It's called: http://www.SpeedTest.netSpeedTest is a FR-EE resource that let's you test how fast your Internet is running.It tests both your UPLOAD and DOWNLOAD speed.(UPLOAD: this means how fast can you upload files likevideos or pictures onto the internet)(DOWNLOAD: this means how fast can you downloadfiles from websites or download even pages themselves) > HOW DO YOU USE IT: Simply go to http://www.SpeedTest.netThen click on the "server" closest to you.(Don't worry it's all on a map, just click what's closest to you.)That's it. Then it runs itself. And it only takes about 90 seconds. > WHAT DO THE RESULTS MEAN?It's hard to say what good results are, because it really depends on what you are trying to do on the Internet to run your real estate investing business.A good rule of thumb is this:DOWNLOAD = at least 2 megebytes / secondUPLOAD = at least .5 megabytes or 512 kilobytes / second > WHAT DO I DO IF I HAVE A SLOW CONNECTION?Here's a dead honest story about me acting like a cheap-scate and costing myself money!When cable internet first came out, I was on a really tiny budget.So I decided I would just keep using "dial-up" service as long as I could. I did it for months and months.Then finally one of my buddy's twisted my arm and I upgrade to cable internet.MAN OF MAN! What a goofball I felt like. Sure I saved a couple dollars on my Internet service, but I wasted SO MUCH OF MY TIME using a slow connection.I could not use the Internet the right way...I could not enjoy the Internet the right way...And I could not reap the benefit of the Internet the right way...With this horribly slow connection! YOUR TIME is VALUABLE! Read that again. Your Time IS Valuable!In fact, it's the most valuable thing you have. It's a limited resource. You can never get more of it. And once it's gone, it's gone for good!Equally importantly, the Internet is so insanely powerful at building a successful REI business *WHEN* you use it the right way -Certainly having a decent connection that allows you to at least experience the Internet the right way is the start.Hope you find this a BIG help!See you next week for FR-EE STUFF FRIDAYS!Have A SUPER Weekend =)Damian Lanfranchi, Your Business Architect"Handing you the step-by-step building blocks toa wildly profitable investing business that lasts!"PS - Got some great FR-EE stuff to share of your own?I want to hear from YOU!
