How to start and be sucessful in onsite computer services?
-
I'm sick and tried of finding job nowadays as every company wants to hire experience people.
So now I thought of starting my own freelance onsite computer service but problem is how to start?
Where to get customer and be successful in doing this service? I tried posting classified ads on the internet and even on my website. But no response so any advices?
Cheers,
symx

give a reasonable pricing for your services and dont overcharge
try better means of advertisment like classified ads or even flyers etc.

I agree with TrixCereals, the most important thing is that potential customers must know that you are providing IT support services, if you're game, try sending faxes to some companies, offering them contract maintainence services and etc.

Provide home service... but list down your profile etc.. a real good with solid english, get someone to edit your english cv or whatever.. to sumit to your client for view

Thx guys for the input but I'm looking at ways to provide service for home users.

i tried to do my own but i have to put to a stop due to my own commitment.
starting is always hard, but when u build up ur reputation, you got hear this word before, one tells ten, ten tells hundred, hundred tells thousand and so on.
For a start, i can tell you is, charge cheap and do a good job. i started by going onsite to repair a lady's computer, when one time i couldnt solve it (due to some issues which the com screwed my brain up), i had to go to her house for a second time, in which i finally solved it. Guess wad? i only charged 25 bucks! And i believe her com till now (a few months already, as i given her 3 months of my personal warranty) still running very smoothly and well.
Yup, just my 2 cent worth of opinion.

If you do a good job, pass a namecard to your client. Ask him/her to recommend next time.
