    anyone run a computer repair business or do it on the side?

    It's another one of my venture's I will be starting. I will do house calls within 30 miles of where i live. And on my receipts i will provide the customer with a list of highly recommended websites, all mine ofcorse Gotta have the money coming in from all directions.

    Just curious if anyone does this and how its working out.

      I used to have a computer store 1989-1992 and I still fix stuff for people occasionally.

      A year ago I thought I would advertise repair to make some extra money, and it's pretty good until the customers you've helped start calling all the time with the most basic problems and expect you to fly out to their location again and again and again just because they don't know how to save their fucking emails or their teenager kid keeps downloading viruses off of Kazaa.

      So I stopped.

        I dated a guy who did this for 10+ years. He finally sold out a few months ago. If you don't mind being at the beck and call of 100's of customers, then it's a good money making venture. He also did sales and network though.
