ABSTRACT

                    Individual and business PCs have gotten to be typical. Information of how to repair PCs when things turn out badly with them, in any case, is not as across the board. Beginning a PC repair business permits you to bring home the bacon while giving a profitable administration to organizations and private customers who can't repair their PC issues all alone. Accreditation is not unequivocally required to begin a PC repair business, yet it awards you believability that can be hard to achieve something else.

DISCUSSION

Step 1
Consider the repair services that you plan to provide. Decide whether you will offer general hardware repair and upgrade services, virus removal, data recovery, and other services. You should also consider the operating systems that you will be working with, as there are considerable differences between repairs on a computer running Windows XP or Windows 7 and computers running a Linux distribution or a version of Mac OS X.

Step 2
Take classes or other courses to prepare for certification tests in the areas you will specialize in. Examples of these certifications include the CompTIA A+ certification for computer hardware, Microsoft Certified Professional certification for working with Microsoft operating systems and programs and Certified Data Recovery Professional certification for data recovery work.

Step 3
 Choose the type of customers that you would prefer to work with. Some computer repair businesses focus on helping business clients to manage their computers, while others are more focused on residential customers. Knowing your target customers beforehand will help you to target your advertising toward those customers.

Step 4

Research your competition to see how many other computer repair businesses target the same customer base in your area. Find out their rates, the services that they provide and the certifications that their technicians hold. Determine the rate that you will work for, making sure that it is competitive and reasonable for someone with your skill level and certifications.
