How can I get started in Notes (without buying the seminar)?

[Steve B.]

Yesterday I attended a local REIA meeting which had a length presentation about why we all need to get into notes. And it came as no surprise that there was also a length pitch about the note training session coming up for only $2k.

The concept of note buying was good and the presentation was informative and entertaining, as I have come to expect from any seminar pitch that I hear.   But do I really have to spend this money to find out what to do next?   Is there a book, or any other resource that you could recommend to me instead?   It sounds like lots of people have already taken this course or something similar.   Is that the way to go?
