I then felt it would be a great teaching video to train future computer repair business owners in what not to do within their own computer repair business. If you want to go into business or you are already in business for yourself then take study of this video and learn from the mistakes made by the bad guys.

Here is the link http://www.cbc.ca/marketplace/2007/10/03/geeks/ 

What i am going to do over the next few days is give feed back of this video with time slots so that you may also learn from it. In this way you will be able to put standards into place in your own home based pc computer repair business. Of course do not take my thinking as gospel. Please use it and then put your own spin onto it so that it may improve your own business.

After watching this a couple of times i have realised that what is going on is misinformation and a lack of education and no understanding of a business. Some of It has been taken from the viewpoint of employees and not business owners.
Business is about making money and it took me a long time to understand this concept.

How do I know if my technical skills are enough to
become a computer repair business owner? 

We get this question a lot with beginners.
Unfortunately many people starting a computer repair business fixing computers for a living sell themselves short. They don’t realise how valuable and marketable their technical skills are.

Ask yourself these few simple questions.

Do family, friends, work friends come to you for informal computer help? 

Do family, friends, work friends see you as the expert with computers?

Do family, friends, work friends recommend you to other people?

Do you have passion for helping people with their computers?

Do you see a smile from people after repairing their computers?

Do you get great satisfaction from helping people?

Do you take the time in reading the Manual, Yes the computer Manual?
