Here are 6 ways to start a computer/laptop repair business
1. Hardware and Software Skills
Computer repair business must be run by people who have skills in the field of hardware and software, and are able to solve/repair all computer/laptop damage. And you should never be satisfied with the skills you have today. continue to improve your skills both self-study and training / courses, so that your business will run smoother and have lots of customers.
2. Manage Capital and Finance
Running a laptop repair business requires not only hardware and software skills, but also capital and operational costs for the initial months when the business starts. This initial capital will be used to rent a shop, buy business equipment. While operational costs will be used to pay for electricity, internet subscriptions, etc. It has been estimated that computer repair costs around $2,250. So make sure your finances are sufficient to run this business.
3. Purchase Equipment
Opening a computer/laptop repair business will require a lot of equipment to support the smooth running of the business. Have at least one computer with complete specifications, to provide some important software such as antivirus, program installers, operating systems, soft file services, etc. Computer repairers also really need hardware tools such as screwdrivers, soldering irons, brushes etc. Besides that, it is also necessary to provide components to replace damage to customer computers such as casing, CPU, GPU, Motherboard, Power supply Unit (PSU), memory (RAM), computer fans etc.
4. Business Location
Even though we often find computer repairs in malls and shopping centers, if you don't have enough funds, you can choose another place that is crowded, so that it's easy for passers-by to see, both pedestrians and vehicles. Or open a business at home to save on the cost of renting a shop.
5. Promotion
Any business that we run will certainly need promotion, because customers will not come without notification of the promotion. There are many ways to promote your computer repair business, such as printing lots of flyers and posting them in many places so that it's easy for passers-by to read, through local radio, WhatsApp groups or through digital marketing.
6. Trustworthy
Opening computer and laptop repair services, does not only rely on a complete supply of equipment, the skills of repairers and promotions, but this service business also needs friendliness and honesty to increase customer trust. Therefore repairers need to avoid cheating, setting high prices without details, stealing data, replacing laptop/computer specs with worse specs. This fraudulent practice often occurs in any repair service business. And however in the end the customer will find out about this fraudulent practice, so he will switch to another repair service.
