Computer
Tech: This is an excellent business to consider right now. Just
about everyone has a computer or plans to have one in the next year or
two. Things do go wrong with home computers and more likely with office
computers or those at businesses where computers are networked. You
can start your own business as a computer tech and work on a freelance
basis. Most companies today don't have the funds to keep a computer
person on staff full-time. Freelance is the way to go. Once
you have developed the expertise to announce your computer tech
business, prepare a brochure on your firm and develop a website to help
promote your business. A
website will demonstrate to your potential clients that you have a
commitment to the latest technology and that you are familiar with all
aspects of the computer tech world. Continue
to learn and grow in the field and you will add on services you can
offer to your clients. To
develop goodwill in the community and to promote your business, consider
offering your services to a community center, school, civic club or
other public association that will be positive pr for your small
business. Do
a search online to learn more about the field and drop into a local
software dealer to brush up on what's available for different businesses
and interests. A good way to get going is to study manuals. One resource
is "Upgrading and Repairing PCs" by Scott Mueller. Check http://www.Amazon.com You'll
be charging by the hour. So survey your marketplace to see what your
market will bear and charge accordingly. Expect to charge anywhere from
$50 to $150 per hour based on where you live. |
