Hey guys,

Me and my friend have been in the computer area for some time and we both have decent amount of info regarding computers, repairs assembly etc and we're now planning to open up something like a private business which will be runned by both of us and will involve mainly repairing of computers or assembly related matters. It'll be runned from home and we won't be selling any components at all but just doing the drity work, that being the reparing part of it.

Now what I want to know is what we can do to improve this and most of all, deal with the promotion and advertising of the business that we will be doing. The main motive is to do repairs at lowest possible prices.

If you guys have any suggestions please be kind enough to contribute here it will be greatly apperciated.

Also, since this is related starting a business I thought it would be best to post it in this section and not to post it in PC Gaming.

Hope to see some positive replys from you all.

P.S. Don't use Sinhala because I can't understand it!

Thanks

~Adz

    Alright guys, company name is screwed. The whole thing is screwed. We're just going to work on freelance. I'll talk to the admin about advertising.

    We both are willing to go the customers place and do the job, thats the best thing to stay off of govt. bullshit. :P
