              We'll charge $140 if the person doesn't bring their OS and driver discs, it takes time having to hunt down that shit.

                  Doesn't this thread come up every few months?

                  I had a very successful computer repair business, but due to the economy and low price of hardware, gave it up because I was making about $10/hr due to all of the freebies and consulting I just couldn't afford to charge for any longer.

                      Plus a couple hours taking up bench time while windows updates with about 100 different fixes, and also making sure ppl don't lose their emails and program data.

                          it sounds great on paper but u must be very clear what you are fixing or you will become someones sale

                          you will fix someones network issues and then they call you and tell you

                          "since you fixed the network card my external drive dont work" etc

                          big headaches you must be clear in writing or u will lose all profits

                              I did a search and the last time someone asked was like 08... but anyways... I did read your posts and thanks for the advice you posted...

                              May I ask what part of the country are you in?

                                  Was it that long ago? Damn.

                                  I'm a few hours away from SFBA, not quite a rural area, but not a huge metropolis, either. Between Reno and Carson City, NV.

                                  The biggest problem you have is developing a proper relationship with the client, and sometimes that means doing a freebie 5 minute call to keep them as (happy) clients.

                                  Cheap hardware and parts on hand are usually key - keep some ATX power supplies, a spindle of software CDs, etc, etc. You can get by with minimal overhead and if you do mobile, they're not only happier but you don't need a huge storefront until you (want/need) to.

                                      Do you think a storefront would add more legitimacy to the biz thus garnering trust/biz... Or is mobile the true way to go?

                                                      I thought this forum was supposed to be talking about how we are spending our $millions, not about getting jobs for $10 an hour outside of the adult business
