Locating FREE educational materials through Google

Kenneth E.

Hey Gang.

I learned a neat trick for finding free educational materials online.

Sometimes people buy educational materials and then scan them and save them online as a pdf document.

Other times the owners of educational materials think their ‘for sale’ educational documents are password protected and only available to paying customers.

Either way, google allows you to search for them directly by using “filetype:pdf”.

So, for example, my favorite marketing guy is Jay Abraham. If I want to search the internet for educational materials by Jay Abraham I would put this into the google search bar:

“jay abraham filetype:pdf” (without the quotes, of course)

And yippee! The google search results are all PDF documents of his educational materials. Booyah!

Good luck!

PS You can do this with real estate educators as well. Not all, but some.
