About this ebook

Like hundreds of millions of people, you probably lived your whole life using one-word processing tool: Microsoft Word.

It’s great software! Powerful software! Resourceful software! And…expensive software!

Google Docs is the Google equivalent of Microsoft Word, but it’s free. Free as in ad-supported, right? One paragraph in and you have to watch a 30 second video of some emoji game you would never play! Wrong! Free as in free. As in no ads. Nothing to pay later. Free!

Who wouldn’t want software like that? For the price of nothing you are getting something you used to pay for. And that nothing doesn’t get you second-rate software that doesn’t help you do the things you really want to do. It gets you cloud-based software that is on par with all the other word processing tools out there.

In many ways, it’s actually better than other tools.

If you are interested in learning more about it, or you are ready to make the leap and become a free user, then this guide will show you the ropes and get you started as quick as possible.

Let’s get started!
