Fair price to charge senior citizens for computer repair?

Posted on February 14th, 2010 by admin

Geek Squad charges $150/hr for on-site computer repair. A local repair shop charges $80/hr for on-site computer repair. What do you think is a fair price to charge senior citizens for on-site computer repair or personal training?
In this particular situation, I am only interested in finding out what an average person would consider a fair price to be, regardless of my cost. Also, if you are over the age of 55, please let me know.

You have to keep mind comparative prices. You also have to keep in mind costs for your own time and labor. So you might have to keep researching.

What to study to become a computer repair technician?

Posted on February 12th, 2010 by admin

I found out I wanted to become a computer repair technician. I plan on going to a tech school, but I’m not sure whats right for me. I mean Phoenix? ITT Tech? Kaplan? Devry? I’m very lost. I mean what do I study once I do find a college? Computer Science? Information Technology? Please anything will help.

For-profit schools should usually be avoided. You’re almost always better off going to a community college.
However, of the for-profit schools on your list, DeVry actually has good technician/technologist programs (because their 4yr BSCET is TAC/ABET-accredited). For computer repair, if that’s all you want, I recommend the 2yr (actually 18 month) DeVry Technician program, which you can convert to a BSTM (Technology Management) in a few years when you want to be promoted.

DeVry is not good for it’s other programs, so don’t take this as a general endorsement of DeVry.

I wish to start my COMPUTER REPAIR SHOP.What are the important things to prepare?

Posted on February 7th, 2010 by admin

Except for the licence from the the Government and so on…What are the must have tools for starting computer repair shop?

Should I need extra computer pheriperals inside my shop?please advise me.

question ~~
1) why would you expect people to bring computer to fix at your shop ?
2) what advantages do you have over other shops?
3) who are your target customers? i.e. corporates, small business owners etc…

personally i don’t think you are ready because i don’t think you have thought about how profitable this business is..

most of the computer repair shop also sell computer parts for a reason …
how could you beat their price in computer parts ?

What is needed to apply for Computer Repair business license?

Posted on February 2nd, 2010 by admin

I fix computers part time. However, I recently read that if I advertise without a license, I can get into trouble. So my question is: 1. What are the prerequisites to apply for a business license for a computer repair license? 2. Do I have to pay taxes? What form do I use? I live in Houston, tx . Thanks you guys.

Looks like you need a Private Investigator’s license for the state of Texas. You’ll also have to pay State and Federal income taxes. You might use the 1040-EZ form.

Computer Repair Irvine - Can any one recommend a Good Computer Repair Company in Irvine?

Posted on January 26th, 2010 by admin

I am looking for a computer repair company or technician for Irvine that knows pc computers, macs , networks and printers. Any Recommendations would be helpful.

I would recommend Act Global Support http://www.Actglobalsupport.com , they are amazing and they are Google Partners and they know what they are doing. I used them first for Google Apps, and then I found out they do computer repair and from there I started using them. And the best part about them, and I promise about this, is that you can negotiate your rates with them. I love that about them they are very honest and understanding. They will work with you if your having financial problems (well at least they did for me) I have a small business and they really went out of the way to help me. And they fix macs to. :)

Do I need a DBA or any license to run an add on Craigslist, offering computer repair?

Posted on January 20th, 2010 by admin

I am currently in college for computer programming, and wish to fix computers locally on the side. What I was planning on doing was running an ad, along with prices offering general PC repair locally on Craigslist. If I was to do this and attract business would I need a DBA or some other kind of license?

You will need a city business license, probably, and you will want to register a DBA name as well.
