The Heretic Becomes a Businessman: The story of computer repair

RE: The Heretic Becomes a Businessman: The story of computer repair
(April 8, 2013 at 3:25 pm)Creed of Heresy Wrote: Oh I'm selling myself short, definitely, but only for a while. Once I get more clients I'll raise the prices a bit to a more fitting but still cost-effective price. My main aim is to undercut, for example, Best Buy's Geek Squad, as well as local stores as well. I kind of take their overflow and work with them directly and for cheaper. And faster. Big Grin

My aim is to put half the money earned from this endeavor and put it into a savings account. Then, once I have enough money, and enough cash flow, I will lease out my own retail space for my computer repair business, to facilitate more business and also to hire additional employees to work with larger numbers of orders, if necessary.

This idea was originally inspired by a weed-induced frenzied need for success, wherein I realized I could work from home fixing computers quite easily. I put my first ad on craigslist a couple weeks ago. I gotta admit, when I get stoned, I come up with really good ideas. XD

Let me know if you need any business cards, flyers or anything like that. Even banners!

I have been running my own business for more than 5 years. Also, remember this: People expect to pay for what they get. They may say they want it cheap, but if it is cheap, they will question the quality of the work.

Best to keep moderate prices and give them the best service and product you can. You will build a good reputation for being a fair business man.

That said, I would love to help you out with a snappy business card and other printed materials. PM me if I can help you out.

And good luck!!!
