I provide a Dropbox folder for all my customers to share with me. In this way I can give you quick access to your learning resources plus any free material I give you both now and in the future, together with any future purchases, should there be any! This is an elegant way of dealing with all this and saves the bother of trying to email large files. If you're not familiar with Dropbox - just Google it. It's free, reliable and secure. Only you and I can see the contents of the folder that I share with you.
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT YOU DON'T NEED A DROPBOX ACCOUNT TO VIEW THIS FOLDER UNLESS YOU WANT TO SHARE YOUR OWN FILES WITH ME. I WILL SIMPLY GIVE YOU A LINK WHEN YOU MAKE YOUR FIRST PURCHASE AND YOU CAN USE THIS TO VIEW SUBSEQUENT PURCHASES.
As the vast majority of my customers have been happy thus far to use Dropbox in this way, I will assume that you are too. In this way I can get your learning resources to you as soon as you have paid and avoid any delay.
