Limited availability but offers multi-gigabit plans. -   Cable:   Widely accessible and highly reliable, with gigabit speeds. May experience slowdowns during peak usage periods. -   Fixed Wireless:   Offers reliable connectivity for rural regions without the latency issues of satellite options. Expect slower speeds and data caps. -   Satellite:   Spans all 50 states, offering reliable connectivity for rural areas but with higher latency and lower data allowances. -   DSL:   Utilizes telephone lines for data transmission, offering widespread availability and affordability but relatively lower speeds.
  Guidelines to Selecting Your Ideal Internet Provider  
Still not sure where to start? Follow these guidelines to help you make the right choice:
1.   Evaluate Your Speed Needs:   Take our speed test to gauge your current speed and determine if you require more or less. 2.   Consider Device Count and Usage:   Factor in the number of connected devices and your daily online activities. 3.   Assess Your Current Speed:   Test your existing internet speed and seek transparent pricing to understand the actual cost. 4.   Demystify Internet Terms:   Gain clarity on essential internet concepts to make informed decisions.
  Internet Provider FAQs  
Still have questions? Here are some frequently asked questions about Fastway Connect:
-   Does Fastway Connect provide internet services?   We don't directly offer internet services but link you with providers accessible in your area. -   Why do limited internet providers serve my area?   Limited options often result from the costly infrastructure needed, but we ensure access to top providers. -   Will there be new internet choices available in my vicinity?   With the rise of 5G and infrastructure investments, we're committed to bringing you cutting-edge options.

Buttercream
Tumblr media
Hello my loves! This is the first part to our Patreon exclusive series, Buttercream. The ready is available on Patreon (over 18 parts) and is still being updated. You all asked to see what’s available to read and I’m giving you sneaks of it!
A series featuring an Alpha Architect Harry, a bossy bakery owning omega Y/N, the sweetest treats taste tested and some steamy smut.
Check out our Patreon for all parts of the series and 150+ exclusive writings.
——-
The smell kept him coming back.
In his life, Harry had been to a quite a few bakeries. He could be considered an expert on fudge brownies, a specialist on cupcakes and the swirls of icing, a connoisseur of croissants. He treated himself a bit too often, if his mother had anything to say with it. His sweet tooth had always been prevalent in his life.
The new bakery down the road from his job, though? That had made him a true problem.
Every day before work, he stopped. Suit and all, pulling into the parking lot and nearly drooling the moment he got out. His feet carried him towards the door and the smell hit him immediately. Sweet buttercream, frothy vanilla, spiced cinnamon, and… something else. That something else that had him nearly vibrating, and now on a mission to have the whole menu to figure out just what the hell that scent was.
It was intoxicating. Mesmerizing. If Harry didn’t have work, he would spend hours just sitting here to smell it. It had a weird hold on him, and he didn’t quite know how to ask if it was an air freshener. That was unlikely for anywhere but restrooms anyways considering how offensive it could be for the noses of alpha’s and omegas alike. A bad scented one could send them into moods. Or even sickness. The sense of smell was very important.
“Mr.Styles.” The teen manning the cash register saluted him. He came in every day and was known to the cashiers, so he had ruled out it being one of them. Thank god. They were either young enough to not have a scent or too old for it to be possible. “What will it be today? Y/N’s been whipping up a storm for the holidays. New recipes. We’ve got a peppermint bark brownie that would go well with the peppermint mocha you like.” She chirped, watching as he scanned the cases.
Harry was a little intimidating but he was exceptionally charming. He smiled, he conversed, he tipped well, but he always seemed to be looking around. Trying to find something that no one could really place. The bakery was empty besides a mum and her friend with their kids, munching on treats and coffee as they watched the traffic go by. It wasn’t them. Harry’s ears did perk up when he heard an unfamiliar name.
“Y/N?” He asked, tilting his head as his attention went back to the cashier. “Who’s that? The owner?” Harry had never met the owner. For some reason, every time he came in the morning she had stepped out for her own break. It didn’t bother him so long as his compliments to the baker got passed along, but hearing her name stirred something in his chest.
“Yep.” She popped the p in her word. “She’s awesome. She started this all on her own after she went viral on the internet. She got the funds from online orders. You see the custom cakes and stuff but she does awesome experimental flavors. She doesn’t care if they’re hits or misses and let’s us go home with leftovers.” There was obvious pride to be working for someone like Y/N. It peaked his interest.
“Oh?” He asked, leaning his body against the counter. “That’s incredible. I’d be very happy to taste some of the new things.” He flashed a smile, tapping his card against the wood of the counter. “What would you think Y/N would suggest?” And why did saying her name make him feel silky and hot? Like it was meant to live on his lips? They tingled as the word left his mouth, making him shift his stance slightly. His skin was buzzing slightly as he heard someone else come from the back.
“She would suggest the peppermint bark brownies, the s’mores donut, the lemon cream cookie and the chili chocolate cupcake. Spice and sweet work surprisingly well together.” The airy voice went to his bones.
Harry could smell it fully now. The scent that laced the bakery was now engulfing him. Filling the space, making him inhale it with each breath. His hand tightened on the card, curling into a fist at his side as he caught a glimpse of her. She had been the source. It wasn’t a baked good or a cashier, but it was the baker herself that was making him addicted to the sweets laced with her scent.
He was silent as he observed her, a smile quirked on her lips. Slightly glossy and deliciously plump as she greeted the cashier with a simple hey and asking her to go to the back to grab the other new tray of cinnamon buns. Sliding them on to the rack, she used her hip to gently nudge the counter open and grabbed one for Harry.
“Here. On the house.” She slid the bag over to him with her soft simper, hands tapping on the wood.
She was marvelous.
Harry was speechless. Something he never usually was- the alpha could talk to a brick wall if he needed to- but this sweet little omega has been slowly hypnotizing him with her scent over the course of a month and now he was finally seeing her. He loved delayed gratification, a fan of edging, but this? He wished he had seen her far earlier.
“Hi.” He peeped. His face looked like he saw a ghost. The woman in front of him was like a mirage- and he wasn’t trying to be dramatic. He swore she was familiar to him in some way. Some how. She was all omega in the ways that called to him. The curve of her face and her soft voice… he could have started purring if he didn’t have some semblance of self control in his body.
“Hi.” She returned the greeting with a soft chuckle that heated his chest. “I hope you like the suggestions. I recognized your voice. You’ve been in here every morning we’re open and I figured it was about time to meet the loyal customer.” She chirped, brushing the stray hair that had fallen from her ponytail behind her ears. The adorably disheveled look added to her appeal.
A candy apple red apron was dusted with various baking material, tied around her waist snug. It showed the curve of her waist went deeper than what he could tell under her sweatshirt that appeared to have the bakery name printed on it. A swipe of flour was decorating her forehead, like she had wiped hair from her face and simply forgot about flour coated hands. Little details he was memorizing to think about later.
“I love the smell.” He blurted out. Immediately, he winced. That hadn’t been what he had meant to say, at least how he had meant to say it. Heat crept up further under his cheeks as he opened and closed his mouth, watching her giggle a bit as he tried to find his bearings.
“Fucking hell- I meant to say, I love your bakery. It smelled amazing when I went past it so I decided to stop in a few weeks ago and now it’s become a part of my daily routine. I bring in pastries for the office.”
“Aren’t you a star coworker.” She cooed, turning from him with a wink as she grabbed one of the red boxes and began to construct it. “They must love you at the office. I have on good authority that the one that brings the snacks, gets the pats on the back. Especially hand made, beautifully crafted baked goods.” She teased, opening up the case and beginning to place some sweets into it.
“I’d hope they like me. I’m their boss.” He laughed quietly, scratching the back of his neck. Never has he felt more like a schoolboy talking to a playground crush. He was head to toe in a suit good enough to meet his best clients, and a girl with flour on her face was sending him to his knees. Each time she moved, a gentle waft of her scent was given his direction and made that ever loved self control hang by a thread.
“Ooooo. Bossman.” She grinned, wiggling her brow as she placed another iced brownie with crushed peppermint bark sprinkled on top into the box. “Should have guessed. Love the suit, by the way. You look very handsome.”
That little compliment made his day. The pretty omega with the prettier smile and mouthwatering scent thought he looked handsome. That would be lingering in his brain all day. How she thought he was handsome. The casual compliments.
“Thank you.” He preened. “We do interior and exterior design for businesses. Up and coming places and remodels. So if you ever need a guy- I’m here.” He placed his hands in his pockets and lifted up on his toes rocking back and forth.
“Oooo. Is it that bad in here? Do I need a renovation?” She sucked her teeth, tilting her head. It had him freezing, mouth falling open to grovel. He hadn’t meant to offend her at all, hadn’t tried to insinuate it needed a remodel.
“Shit- no, I’m sorry. It’s very cute in here, I didn’t mean to insinuate it needed any help. I’m sorry, I didn’t realize how it would sound-“
“Cool it, bossman.” She cooed, laughing at how he had nearly fallen over himself. “I’m just messing with you. The place does need some exterior work, actually. I hadn’t had the budget when we first started, nor the time. But I didn’t take any offense to it. You’ve got to market yourself. Don’t worry.” Her reassurance made him melt into relief, leaning into the counter. This whole encounter had him feeling a bit on edge in the weirdest way. He wanted to snuggle this woman, yet he was almost afraid of her. An omega. He was afraid of an omega.
Anyone else would laugh at him, perhaps, but he felt the nervousness creeping in his bones. He wanted her to like him. He wanted her to think he was cool and want to know him better. Y/N, Y/N, Y/N. She had unarmed his normal charm and made him feel like a nervous bundle of sweat and it was exhilarating.
“I’ll take a card, though.” She placed her hand out flat. “If you’ve got one. I’m gonna check out your website.”
Harry fished one out of his wallet, thankful he kept them on hand. It had his office number, and part of him wanted to offer his personal cell but he knew that would be a bit weird. Especially if she wanted to use his services. He almost hoped she didn’t- asking a client on a date wasn’t good for the image, was it? He wasn’t sure.
“If you’ve got any questions you can reach out on the email there, it’s a direct line to me- or uh, I come in every day so.” He shrugged. “Around this time. You’ve got very good coffee too. It’s been a while since I’ve had a good hazelnut. People put a lot of syrups and things… but your shop does it the best.”
“Thank you.” She seemed chuffed with his praise. “I taste test everything with the crew here. You’ll be in for a treat. If you’re coming in every morning, do you think you’d want to be a bit of a guinea pig for me?” She slid the box across the counter. “I’ve been experimenting like my lovely employee was saying. But I’d love a real customers opinion. Even if it’s bad. I want to know what the consumer likes.”
Harry was shocked. Y/N was kind of treating him like a friend, like she valued his exact opinion. He couldn’t deny he felt exceptionally special. Having not only the owner of the bakery but an omega he had some sort of crush on suddenly want to sample the new things she sells and get his opinion on it.
“Oh- uh. Alright. Of course! I can do that.” He grinned shyly, handing his card over for her to pay for the things she had put into the box. “I come in every morning during the week so… you can just let me know what’s new to taste.” There was a giddiness in his stomach. An excuse to talk to her every day. Or at least a few times a week. He’s never really reacted this way to an omega before, the scent craving, the shyness he suddenly felt, all of it was so new to him and he was unsure how to navigate it but he didn’t want to stop. He only wanted more.
“Perfect. What is your name, by the way?” The card was handed back to him and there was slight disappointment their fingers didn’t brush, but Harry took today was a victory.
“Harry. Harry Styles. It’s lovely to meet you.”
“Y/N. I’m glad to meet you too. I hope to see more of you soon.”

Guys, buy physical media it’s dying. They are taking it from us.
My local Meijer (a regional variant of Walmart) has stopped selling physical media. Like outright. It’s now gift cards for streaming services, and online shit. They are phasing out physical video games too. They are phasing out laptops, DVDs players, blueray players.
I know, I know, streaming services are so easy and convenient. But like, you don’t own it. You are at the mercy of the services. Once they kill physical media completely they can hike up the prices as steep as they like, $30, $40, $50 and more a month. Because it will be the ONLY way (short of pirating) that you can watch shows and movies. They will make it cable and satellite premium levels of expensive. And you won’t be able to stop them. They’ll hold your favorite shows hostage behind paywalls and micro transactions. They’ll vault up shows and movies and make them unavailable for long periods of time. You’ll have to have 7 different streaming services all costing $40 bucks a pop to watch the things you want.
You’ll have access to NOTHING without paying a premium. And remember, you already pay money to have an internet connection. Are streaming services really as affordable as you think? Internet price + the price of each service? That adds up. And they keep raising the price, and will keep raising the prices, because they know you’ll keep paying.
Having physical media means you get to watch your favorite shows and movies anytime. With or without internet connection. Broke as fuck? You can still watch it, because it’s yours. Did they lock up your favorite show or movie to make it more exclusive? You can still watch it with physical media because you own it. Want to let your friend borrow it? You can lend it to them, or burn them a copy. No need to fret about stupid services cracking down on password sharing. Want to watch the movie or show with online friends? You can stream DVDs over Discord so friends can watch with you.
(Am currently streaming Teen Titans the original animated series with my best friend over Discord. It’s mine, so neither of us pay anything to watch it together.)
Companies are writing off physical media as unprofitable. They are culling it. Taking it out of stores, making it less accessible.
People around me talk about all these movies and tv series they’d love to watch, but have to buy another streaming service to access it. And I offer to let them borrow the DVDs or Blueray, and they straight up tell me they don’t own DVDs or dvd players. Why?! WHY!? They subscribe to 4 or 5 different service instead forking out $50+ a month. But they put themselves at the mercy of these services, at the mercy of internet connectivity and access. They can’t even borrow a movie or show from me, because they are so dependent on internet and streaming.
Did you know there are literally ways to save your movies digitally and take them on the go? Streaming should be a neat little thing that’s convenient, it has its perks and uses, but it should NOT the only way to watch media.
Save physical media.
Buy a dvd player.
Buy movies.
Buy shows.
Own your media.
Stop renting it. Streaming is just glorified rental.
Stop renting it.
Because soon that’s all you’ll ever be able to do.

Let Begones be Begones - Veritas Ratio
Where Ratio conceals his identity as a faceless and voiceless streamer, until he finally reveals himself to your surprise. College au! and also streamer au! Exes to lovers, reader is a bit sassy. ~1k words, SFW
a/n: i feel like i don't often write in ratio's perspective, so i wanted to give a go at it...
Tumblr media
"FUCKING HELL!! I HATE YOU I HATE YOU I HATE YOU!!" The purple-haired man had heard through the thin walls separating your apartment flats. This had been the third time in probably an hour where your yells and screams had nearly broken Ratio's ears.
Yes, Ratio was a streamer himself, but at least he was courteous to his neighbours enough to use a text-to-speech application and an elaborately-designed model when streaming, so he didn't need to reveal his voice nor appearance. Hardly anyone knew about his job as someone who blabbers on the internet for money. Not his boring Architecture major classmates, nor his closest childhood friend, Aventurine.
One of the few people who knew about his side gig was the precisely the person living in the flat next to his. You see, you two shared the same passion for sciences and such, and ended up applying for the same major, which didn't end up very well, with a falling-out happening just months ago.
Ratio had seen you while throwing out the trash once, and upon his eyes meeting yours, his face morphed into a scowl that slowly spread across your face too. An eye roll was more than enough to show his dismissal of your existence, even after all the joyous times you two spent together. Or that time where holes were practically burning into his skull when he was presenting his "new idea of architectural geniusness".
He also knew that you two shared the same job, thinking nothing of it, as his method of earning money was too intelligent to not garner a few copycats here and there.
After a long day of studying and attending classes, turning his monitor on was the last thing Ratio wanted to do. Yet, he promised his viewers a "facecam" stream to celebrate his first year of streaming (which was also his first year of being stuck in ths terrible apartment complex). He did his usual routine of setting up his stream, with an additional flick of his bangs due to his first appearance as himself on stream.
Ratio went along with the stream as usual, doing his greetings, reading his donations, and throwing (jokingly) vile remarks at his chat. He wanted to get it over with as soon as possible, so with one last look at his phone camera, he turned off all his assets.
"Well, asides from me feeling extremely bare and upfront upon the eyes of you idiots, any thoughts?" Ratio spoke, his real voice unconcealed.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH- WHAT?!"
The man's head swiveled to the side in alert, eyebrows narrowing in annoyance. Your shrill shriek had once again assauted his ears. THE Veritas Ratio hadn't think this through enough, huh?
He sighed, shoulders slumping in defeat after the stream ended. Ears perking up at the loud knocks on his apartment door, Ratio dragged his tired body to the doorway, knowing full well that he would be bombardde with countless questions.
"What now?" He grumbled.
"YOU'RE TELLING ME YOU'VE BEEN HIDING THIS," your finger jabbed at your phone displaying his streamer profile, "FROM ME?" Ratio sighed, body practically slumping against the door frame. "Nobody said that being a streamer's exclusive to you. Now just- go back to your room before I slam the door in your face."
The realisation that you've been watching his streams was slowly dawning on his barely-function mind. Considering the type of content that he made which only appealed to a small audience compared to gamers or E-girls, he knew basically every recurring viewer.
Including the one who has been spitfireing snarky chat messages at him ever since the falling-out.
Oh.
It was comically ironic how Ratio was the one who ended up knocking on your door the next morning. He felt awkward, brain tingling from the predicament. This was the first time (not counting yesterday night) that he's talked to you personally in weeks, even months. His feet was tapping in impatience, hearing you stumble through your way to the door.
"Oh, it's you. What happened to wanting me to get out of your face?"
Ratio's fingers ran through his hair, strands of violet falling to his eyes. He was uncharacteristically silent, racking his brain for a proper reason that wouldn't make him lose his face.
"Well, I just- You know... Ugh! Why do you have to make this so difficult?!"
"I just... wanted to know why you decided to watch my streams."
You chuckled at his coy form, you wanted to burn it into your retinas. Not only because it was a very, very rare occurence, but also because you never wanted to let go in the first place. Ratio was the one who decided to break it off, saying that you were a distraction to becoming a greater scholar. You still remembered how hard you cried that night, and thinking back, he'd probably also remember due to how thin the walls were.
"Listen, it's not like I wanted to stalk you or something, I just happened to learn about it through a mutual friend. So if you're trying to manipulate me or hurt me again, today's not the day for it."
Ratio faltered. He didn't expect your sharp words to hurt this much. Each and every time he saw you in class, the deeper the hole in his heart would go. It's not like he wouldn't like to pursue you again, he was just incredibly scared. And knowing Ratio, he'd never admit to that.
You sighed, beginning to find the conversation pointless. You decided to turn back and return to your room to continue working on your essay. But before you could, a calloused hand grabbed your wrist firmly. You looked back to see Ratio with his head hung low.
"The things that you do to me... How come someone like me, someone who was born to use logic and reasoning, be so impulsive when it comes to dealing with you?"
You smiled, interlocking your fingers with his, gently rubbing your fingers on his callouses from writing and researching. He didn't disappoint you this time, and you knew that he wouldn't hurt you again.
You two shared a hug before you led him into your apartment.
"What's with all the mess? You'll never have a clear mind with such an unruly space."
Looks like he was back to his usual self.

Heartdresser | LH44 (Patreon preview)
Full piece already available on Tumblr! Read here.
▸Pairing: Lewis Hamilton x braider!reader ▸Warnings: mentions of a brother, tooth-rotting fluff, mentions of LA GP with a different ending, fem!reader (she/her). ▸ my masterlist | my taglist | patreon guide ▸ support my writing by reblogging, leaving a comment (don’t forget to follow me if you like the piece), or buying me a coffee
Being a Formula One Driver had its perks, from obvious and big things such as traveling everywhere to not-so-obvious and small things like having your hair stylist travel to you when you needed them. After becoming an adult and famous, it took Lewis a couple of years to come to terms with his hair, how to style it, how to take care of it, and how to embrace the texture and volume. He felt finally whole when he reached that point, one where meaningless comments on the internet wouldn’t make him rethink his path, goals, and achievements. Of course, comments hurt, but being comfortable with yourself helped, and that was something Lewis learned.
****
“Who’s Dee, by the way?”
“It’s Aiyden, my little brother. I call him Dee,” you explain before adding, “He’s finishing a Chemistry project with a few friends at school. He was tempted to skip but gave up after a pep talk on how school is important, and I would take forever doing your hair just so he could see you.”
Lewis nods while you explain, and then he’s chuckling just like minutes ago.
“I don’t mind waiting for him with you,” he winks.
You’re not sure if he’s being friendly, funny, or flirty, but any of these F words coming from the black guy in front of you are surely making your heart skip a beat.
****
Saturday was even more of a rush, you almost didn’t see Lewis, but he texted before and after quali. So when Sunday came you were still trying to navigate the whole paddock thing, but a bit more comfortable about it. Aiyden was still acting as if it was his own version of Disney land and it was his first day discovering the adventure world. You were loving it for him, of course.
“Nice outfit,” Lewis whispers right beside you, catching you off guard and making you jump in surprise. You were in a corner, just texting a friend, and checking your next few appointments while Ayiden went to meet Charles and you thought Lewis would be there until he came back, but it wasn’t the case.
“You’re sneaky,” you chuckled, straightening your instance and looking into his face only to notice he was already staring at you.
“You look cute when you’re focused,” he winks, before adding, “and when you’re scared too.”
“You look cute when you joke like this,” throwing back at him you didn’t expect for his brows to furrow in confusion.
“You think I’m joking?”
“Aren’t you?”
Lewis giggles. He giggles and you can’t help but smile with the sound and the way his lips part while his eyes squint. “I’m not.”
“You’re not?!”

The 31st Gene Key moves from the Shadow of Arrogance to the Siddhi of Humility and it is the Way of Leadership.
Tumblr media
The 31st Gene Key is about activating your leadership with humility. This means learning to fall with Grace because that’s what makes a good leader... A good leader can fall and lift themselves back up again. And that takes a special kind of strength.
Programming Partner Gene Key 41: Fantasy – Anticipation - Emanation
The 31st Gene Key represents leadership
Tumblr media
True leadership is the gift of helping others find their way forward in life, rather than taking away their power. It’s moving away from fear towards Service.
It's embracing your Heart.
It's choosing to let your Heart lead you toward your Soul's highest aspirations and potential... for the highest good of all.
Shadow of Arrogance – World Wide Web of Words
The 31st shadow of arrogance is about seeking attention and recognition. It’s caring what other people think, and trying to please or provoke.
Today, this shadow has gained more momentum than ever through the internet – through social media, for example. And, the more unsure we are of ourselves, the more we look for affirmation from the outside.
Tumblr media
Instead, ask: 
How can I best serve the whole? 
That’s a question our modern culture doesn’t yet ask – at least not on a collective level…
Gift of Leadership – Heart Branding
Courage is a key quality of Leadership - not the courage to run headlong at the enemy or do something externally impressive. It’s the inner courage to stay centered in our Truth - in the truth of our heart - even when others may not understand. Or even when they project all kinds of things onto us. It’s about standing firm in our self-love.
Tumblr media
Siddhi of Humility – Ring of No Return
The 31st Siddhi is about learning to trust the spirit within us. We all have to make difficult decisions in life. But we must learn to make them in the spirit of surrender, deep listening, and trust. Then we’ll learn what it means to be truly humble.
Living life right out of the fires of your heart will humble you over and over again. Yet, true humility knows that your spirit will not only prevail – but it will thrive, dance and soar, as you learn to live without expectations or fear.
Journaling the Gift of Leadership
Where in life am I caught up in caring about what other people think? Who is it that I effort to please, or provoke?
What expectations or fears, keep me from letting my Heart lead?  How can I stay centered in the truth of my own Heart?
Name three of the greatest leadership qualities I'm gifted with.
How can I use my voice and actions to make the world a better place for us all?

How a Mobile App Can Build a Loyal Customer Base
Tumblr media
In today’s competitive market, businesses are constantly seeking ways to create strong, lasting connections with their customers. One of the most effective tools for achieving this is a mobile app. With smartphones becoming an integral part of everyday life, businesses can leverage mobile apps to build customer loyalty and drive long-term success. Here's how a mobile app can help cultivate a loyal customer base:
1. Personalized User Experience
A mobile app allows businesses to offer tailored experiences to their users. By leveraging customer data, such as browsing habits, preferences, and purchase history, apps can provide personalized recommendations, offers, and notifications. This level of personalization makes customers feel valued and understood, increasing their likelihood of returning.
2. Enhanced Convenience
Mobile apps provide unmatched convenience, enabling customers to interact with your business anytime and anywhere. Whether it’s shopping, booking services, or accessing information, a well-designed app simplifies these processes. The ease of use fosters positive customer experiences, encouraging repeat interactions.
3. Loyalty Programs and Rewards
Mobile apps are an excellent platform for implementing loyalty programs. Rewarding customers with points, discounts, or exclusive offers for their purchases or app engagement incentivizes them to stay connected with your brand. Gamification features, like challenges or milestone rewards, can further boost customer retention.
4. Seamless Communication
Apps serve as a direct communication channel between businesses and customers. Push notifications, for instance, allow you to share updates, promotions, or reminders in real-time. This keeps your brand top-of-mind and encourages users to engage with your app regularly.
5. Fostering Community Engagement
Features like forums, chat support, and social sharing within your app can help create a sense of community among users. Encouraging customers to interact with your brand and each other builds emotional connections, which are critical for fostering loyalty.
6. Data-Driven Insights
A mobile app collects valuable data about customer behavior, preferences, and feedback. Analyzing this data helps businesses understand their customers better and make informed decisions. By continuously improving your app based on user insights, you show customers that their opinions matter, enhancing loyalty.
7. Consistent Branding and Experience
A mobile app offers a controlled environment where you can consistently showcase your brand identity. From the app’s design to the tone of communication, maintaining consistency helps build trust and reinforces your brand’s image in the minds of customers.
8. Exclusive Content and Features
Offering app-exclusive content, discounts, or features is a great way to encourage customers to download and use your app. Exclusive perks make customers feel special and give them a reason to stay engaged.
9. Offline Accessibility
Many mobile apps allow users to access certain features or content even without an internet connection. This functionality adds to the convenience and reliability of your app, enhancing the user experience and building trust.
10. Continuous Updates and Improvements
Regularly updating your app with new features, bug fixes, and improved functionality shows customers that your business is committed to providing the best possible experience. This dedication to quality fosters a sense of loyalty and encourages customers to stick with your brand.
Conclusion
A mobile app is more than just a digital tool; it’s a powerful platform for building lasting relationships with customers. By offering personalized experiences, fostering engagement, and consistently delivering value, businesses can create a loyal customer base that drives growth and success. In a world where customer loyalty is a key differentiator, investing in a mobile app is not just an option – it’s a necessity.

Rookie dispatcher knew Officer Darron Burks was in trouble
Tumblr media
DALLAS POLICE Sound that danger makes
Owen Larsen specializes in sounds.
Tumblr media
He’s learned the daily mix, like a sigh when an officer is tired or a thump to indicate a bumped object.
He differentiates screams in the worst situations, gauging severity based on tone.
In the world of police dispatch, he knows the subtlest sound can mean the difference between a routine call and a crisis.
So his ears perked, he said, when he heard a gurgle the night of Aug. 29.
“That wasn’t right,” Larsen recalled. “It didn’t sound anything like what I’ve heard before.”
The sound came from Officer Darron Burks, known to Larsen by his element number, Charlie 717.
Larsen didn’t know it then, but Burks had just been shot as he sat in his squad car in southeast Oak Cliff.
The new dispatcher was one of the last people to talk to Burks, a former schoolteacher killed in the brazen attack.
From Dallas’ dispatch room of about 80 people, Larsen sent officers to check on Burks, then guided them through a massive emergency response that included a chase to Lewisville and the killing of the gunman.
A year earlier, that quick police response likely wouldn’t have been possible.
The Dallas Police Department transitioned last year to Project 25, a new radio system that helped Larsen speedily identify which officer made the abnormal noise and track down his location.
The old system didn’t give dispatchers identifying information or location services, police officials said.
The new one is also interoperable, allowing agencies that helped Dallas police to communicate on the same channel.
For his actions the night of Burks’ death, Larsen was thrust into recognition, a feeling that has yet to become familiar to the North Texas native, he told The Dallas Morning News in an exclusive hourlong interview.
Asked if he felt as calm as he seemed in a recording of the radio traffic uploaded to YouTube, his answer was blunt.
“Internally? No,” Larsen told The News in December.
Jumping into action
Larsen, a 32-year-old with a tall stature and long red beard, was born in Lancaster and has lived in Garland and Sachse.
He got an education as an aircraft mechanic but started his career as a heavy equipment mechanic for the city of Dallas’ sanitation department.
He left after a spinal injury, he said, and searched for another city position until he landed as a 911 call taker in 2023.
This year, he decided to join dispatch, where he’d shadowed friends. It felt, to him, like a step up.
Larsen finished four months of training and hit the dispatch floor on his own in the weeks before Burks’ death.
He quickly adopted his own system.
He uses six screens at any one time.
One is a map showing officers’ locations.
There’s one for his email and dispatch system hub, one internet screen and two showing lists of units and incidents.
Then there’s a radio screen, which shows badge numbers, the time a recording starts and the duration.
Aug. 29 started as a normal day, Larsen said.
The next day was his birthday and he was trying to decide if he wanted it off.
But that night, he was tasked to work dispatch for the South Central Patrol Division.
He expected priority calls, but that’s just Dallas, he said.
Stabbings, shootings, kidnappings, armed encounters — “you just kind of get ’em all.”
He remembers he handled an officer assist call stemming from a traffic stop, which was resolved after he sent another officer.
Around 10 p.m., Charlie 717 mic’ed up through his handheld radio.
Burks wanted to be assigned to a nearby high-priority call, which Larsen believes was an armed encounter at an apartment complex.
He thought Burks was on his way, then heard the second-long groan.
He realized it came from Burks, whose location hadn’t moved.
“I know he’s there,” Larsen thought, “I know he’s near his radio, and he’s not replying anymore. There’s something kind of weird.”
“Did you mean to mic up?” Larsen asked.
Nothing.
“Do we need to reroute to Charlie 717’s location?” an officer cuts in. “If you’re close by, go ahead and head over there,” Larsen replied.
Types of screams
The gravity of what occurred hit Larsen after the first scream, which was followed by another.
Tumblr media
Jamie Farmer and Karissa David, the officers he’d sent, were shot. “On the 911 side, you hear screams all the time,” Larsen told The News .
“You kind of recognize the difference between somebody screaming because of a situation and somebody screaming because something’s happened to them. When David and Farmer both screamed, you can tell there’s a difference.”
A sergeant got there, and three officers set off emergency alarms, spurring a cacophony of screeches and strobe effects in the dispatch room.
It took Larsen a second to register what was happening, he said.
Then he dropped into training:
Clear the air.
Turn the call into an officer assist.
Get people there as fast as possible.
“What unit is that?” Larsen called over the radio after the screams.
Heavy breathing is heard.
“What’s going on?” Larsen pressed. At least six shots are heard.
“Units — I need units to head to 907 E. Ledbetter. Code 3,” Larsen said, referring to the code for an emergency response.
Larsen said other officers arrived just as the Buick driven by the gunman left the scene.
For the next several minutes, he called out the gunman’s location as police chased him.
A Department of Public Safety helicopter pilot joined in to help, he said, and the pilot checked on officers, which inspired Larsen to also try to calm the responders.
Larsen told others on the radio to keep quiet, hoping to prevent random chatter.
He told officers to clear themselves from other responses so he could add them if they wanted to aid in the pursuit.
Simultaneously, he coordinated the responses to an accident involving an officer and a different high-priority call in South Central.
Other dispatchers joined in to help, but he led the response.
Larsen’s shift ended at 10:30 p.m., but he stayed an extra hour.
An employee arrived to help take the reins, but he insisted on staying.
It was an officer safety issue, Larsen said.
He didn’t want anything to get lost by switching crews.
Instead, he delegated tasks, like calling hospitals to prepare them for the officers and alerting suburban agencies that Dallas officers were crossing into their jurisdictions, to the others.
“There’s definitely pressure, but you kind of drop into a habit,” Larsen said. “You know what needs to happen.”
The gunman stopped in Lewisville and got out of his car.
At least six officers opened fire, killing him.
The aftermath
After the gunman was killed and the officers were at the hospitals, a “weird slowdown” happened, Larsen said.
He went to a break room and sat alone.
Then he went to find supervisors and tried to find out the officers’ conditions.
He remembered an officer needed CPR.
Soon after, he learned Burks had died.
He talked to DPD’s wellness unit before he left for the night.
It wears him out to think about that night, and he said he still leans on his wife and family for support.
“It’s just hard to know that two of your units were in the hospital and one wasn’t able to make it home,” Larsen said.
Nowadays, he feels twitchier on radios and more protective.
If he hears an odd sound, he’s more aggressive in tracking officers down.
Once, he sent a sergeant to check on an officer who hadn’t replied.
That officer was in the bathroom, Larsen said.
“It’s been a little rough,” Larsen said.
“For the first couple of weeks, I had a little trouble sleeping at the time. Whenever the emergency button was pressed, that set me off a little bit.”
He makes an effort to keep in touch with Farmer and spoke twice with David.
He didn’t know until he talked to her how bad her injuries were.
David was shot in the face and is now blind in both eyes.
For all that was lost, Larsen’s supervisors point to him for what went right.
Larsen credits his training for his quick response.
If an officer mics up and you don’t hear from him or her again, you’re supposed to check with that officer twice before sending someone.
Much came down to experience, he said.
“Until you really deal with it day in, day out, you’re not going to have that great grasp,” Larsen said.
“Once you become used to it — you’re used to the flow of how things go, you’re able to focus on other things multidimensionally.”
Robert Uribe, Dallas police 911 administrator, said the radio system implemented last year has given the department far more flexibility.
Under the older, antiquated protocols, he said, they’d need to do a roll call: ask each officer to key up and let them know he or she is OK.
They’d then need to narrow down who was missing, and they also wouldn’t have had the officer’s location from the handheld radios.
Their response would’ve taken a lot longer, Uribe said.
Minutes they didn’t have.
It’s impossible to guess the outcome had officers taken that much longer.
The gunman could’ve had more time to escape.
He could’ve hurt someone else — or had more time to hide and prepare an ambush for more officers as they arrived.
Larsen is an “inspirational story,” Uribe said, highlighting his and other staffers’ efforts that night.
“The call takers, the supervisors, the dispatchers, they all came together in a very critical time,” Uribe said.
“They’re all hailed as heroes.”
Then-Dallas police Chief Eddie García said after the shooting that Larsen sent help to an officer when he needed it most.
Though the chief didn’t mention Larsen by name, he publicly praised the dispatcher who followed training and protocol, adding: “It was brave and honorable work done.”
Larsen’s trainer later sent him an online clip of the chief’s remarks.
“It felt weird having the chief talk about me,” Larsen said in the interview with The News .
“I felt a sense of pride, but at the same time, it was still bitter knowing that three of your officers have been injured.”
When The News asked how he felt about being called a hero, Larsen stared down at a table.
He was quiet for several moments.
“That’s a strange feeling,” he finally said.
Funeral blues
Larsen listened to the radio traffic uploaded to YouTube in the days after Burks’ death.
https://fb.watch/wKm0IGnAHl/
The noise from Burks that first triggered Larsen’s attention that night sounded different from what he remembers — more like a moan.
He hasn’t listened to the clip since.
Larsen tried to work that following weekend, but his supervisor didn’t let him, insisting he rest.
So instead, he went to the South Central Patrol Division.
He later attended a candlelight vigil for Burks and a viewing.
He didn’t want to sit at home, he said.
He wanted to be there for anyone who needed him.
That feeling carried into the morning of Sept. 7 as he pulled on his light blue communications dress uniform.
Loved ones piled into Burks’ funeral at a North Dallas church. They listened to local leaders call on police employees to stand tall, to continue their public service in Burks’ memory.
Sitting among the sworn officers heeding that call was Larsen, a dot of light blue in a sea of dark police uniforms.

What is Crowdfunding?
Crowdfunding is the process of raising small amounts of money from a large number of people, typically via online platforms. It provides an alternative to traditional financing methods such as bank loans, venture capital, or angel investors. Instead of relying on a few large investments, crowdfunding pools resources from individuals who believe in the project or cause.
Types of Crowdfunding
Understanding the types of crowdfunding is crucial for choosing the right approach for your project:

2. Donation-Based Crowdfunding
In this type, contributors donate money without expecting any financial return. It’s often used for charitable causes, medical expenses, or community projects.
3. Equity-Based Crowdfunding
Here, backers receive equity or shares in the company in exchange for their investment. This type is regulated and appeals to those looking to invest in startups or businesses.
4. Debt-Based Crowdfunding (Peer-to-Peer Lending)
Backers provide loans to individuals or businesses with the expectation of repayment along with interest. It functions as an alternative to traditional loans.
Benefits of Crowdfunding
1. Access to Capital
Crowdfunding offers a chance to raise funds without the need for traditional financial institutions or investors. It’s an ideal solution for those with limited access to conventional funding.

Launching a crowdfunding campaign can validate your idea by gauging public interest. If people are willing to back your project, it’s a strong indicator of potential success in the market.

Successful campaigns can generate buzz and media coverage, giving your project exposure to a wider audience.
4. Community Building
Crowdfunding helps create a dedicated community of supporters who believe in your vision and can act as brand ambassadors.
5. Flexibility and Control
Unlike traditional funding, crowdfunding allows creators to retain more control over their projects without giving up significant equity or ownership.
Steps to Launch a Successful Crowdfunding Campaign
1. Set Clear Goals
Define your funding target and explain how the money will be used. Clear and transparent goals build trust with potential backers.
2. Choose the Right Platform
Research and select a crowdfunding platform that aligns with your project type and target audience.
3. Craft a Compelling Story
People back projects they feel connected to. Share your story, vision, and passion through engaging content that resonates with your audience.
4. Create a Great Pitch
Your pitch should include:
A clear description of your project
High-quality images and videos
Details about the rewards or incentives
Testimonials or endorsements if available
5. Leverage Social Media
Use social media channels to promote your campaign. Engage with your audience by sharing updates, answering questions, and thanking contributors.
6. Build Momentum Early
The first few days of your campaign are crucial. Reach out to your network, including friends, family, and colleagues, to gain initial support and build credibility.
7. Offer Attractive Rewards
If using reward-based crowdfunding, design rewards that are appealing and relevant to your audience. Early-bird discounts or limited-edition items can create urgency.
8. Engage and Communicate
Keep your backers informed with regular updates about the campaign’s progress. Share milestones, express gratitude, and provide transparency.
9. Plan for Fulfillment
Ensure that you can deliver on your promises, whether it’s rewards, products, or services. Failing to fulfill commitments can damage your reputation.
Challenges of Crowdfunding
While crowdfunding offers many advantages, it’s not without challenges:
Competition: The increasing number of campaigns can make it harder to stand out.
Time-Consuming: Creating and managing a campaign requires significant effort and time.
